It seems Citibank is ver generous with CLI these past few months. My prior limit was 4950. Just clicked the citi luv button today and was given 750 instant CLI to 5700 my highest so far.
Two months ago also was given 750 CLI from 4250 to 4750. Right thereafter, called citi for a bigger CLI and was declined.
Clicked BoA CLI and got the 5-7 day message. I guess declined again. How will I get past 1500 for BoA. It's so small.
Any chance for Discover CLI... I just got the card 3 months ago.
AMEX Gold\ Citi Dividend 5700\ Home Depot 5000\ Chase Freedom 4000\ CalcomCU Visa 2500\ Discover More 1700\ BoA Plat Visa 1500\ Best buy RZMC 1425\ Best buy 1300\ Express Men 1000\ AE 125
Nice! Congrats.
got 750 and 750 CLI at 2 month intervals from citi too w/o any HPs,
if they pull hard or not seems to be YMMV.
I agree with you in terms of Citi's generosity.
I got CLI from $3600 to $6300 without asking in 13th month of card opening. I got it in Jun '09 and got CLI in Jul '10. If don't get it again in two months I am going to ask for it.
Just curious to how some ppl are getting their Citi CLI...are you using the card hard? little usage? and PIF?

For Discover, I'd wait and see if you get an auto CLI at 6 months, and if not, I'd wait a year to request (they do a hard pull and don't tend to increase your limit much).

I've had a Citi card for ~3 years and I've gone from $5600 to recently, $10000. I just used the card for all my purchases (until my upgrade to prime cards a year ago - now I just have my Netflix subscription on my card) and I always PIF. I've heard they also like balance transfers.

You don't consider Citi to be "prime"?
Citi is picky on who they play in their sandbox... I would consider them "prime".

I guess I meant until I switched to prime cards with cashback...my Citi Student Visa was my first CC.
Get it converted to one of Citi's great cashback cards, the Dividend World MasterCard!
Anyway...
Many consider Citi "prime" (in fact, everyone does), they're pretty picky.
The 3 "superprime" are BofA, Chase, and Amex, in my book.
