Costco CLI Approved

[Creditaddict]

Partner decided not to open a new account right now so just requested CLI.

Went from $7500 to $15,200. He asked for $20k.

He got the card back in October I think but at 61 days a collection popped up on EX (it was not correct but of course when you need it to be it wasn't a fast process!)

Now that's gone so...

Very nice,  Did your parner do it online or over the phone? I have the same limit on that card and I got the card over a year almost two years ago!  I think I'm going for the Platinum in Auguest when I get back to the States.

Online.

Why wouldn't you request? it's always a soft and I would not stop requesting until I got to $25k!

and why wait to get platinum? now would be better from the stand point of back dating.

Sorry I hope this isn't off topic, but with AMEX cards, if I request a CLI online is that always a soft? Or would it be better to call to avoid a hard inq?

Well shoot I didn't realize that whole soft pull thing?  So I guess I don't have an excuse now? 

Would you apply for the CLI and the new Platinum Card?  Not sure if that would complicate things or maybe the card then the CLI?  hum!!!
