Does Chase's 5/24 rule effect CLI's?

I am definately in violation of 5/24 but I'm wondering if this rule also effects credit limit increases for current card holders, not just new apps.  I'm considering burning a hard pull for my one year old Slate.

Its a rule applied to some Chase cards that you are auto denied if you have opened 5 or more new cards in the last 24 months.

I dont think that affects cli in anyway. You either are eligble for Chase luv or you arent getting any luvinSmiley Wink Are you still using your Slate for bt purposes?

CybeRise, 5/24 refers to Chase's rule no more than 5 credit cards in 24 months, for many here a big time hinderance but for normal peeps, easy peasySmiley Happy

Yeah, I did use it for a balance transfer but since it's kind of a one-and-done card in that the no-fee transfer only extends for the first 3 months, I wouldn't use it again for that purpose.  Why?  Were you about to suggest I PC?  I've thought about it I just haven't bothered.  I assumed I'd take a hard pull for that and I want to save those for judicious CLI's.

Chase's special little rule is a real punch if you're a churner, rebuilder, or just plain garden-averse.  But, as AverageJoe points out, most normal people (and by normal I mean people who aren't obsessed with this forum) are unaffected.  Smiley Wink

To be an CLI analog of 5/24 for new accounts, Chase would also be looking at whether you have CLIs on your OTHER cards.....   And really, if 5/24 is about too much credit chasing, those CLIs should count as well.   But as gdale6 says, that hasn't been reported, although you often don't know the REAL reason for a CLI denial.

Doesn't 5/24 mean 5 accounts opened in 24 months, not just credit cards?  Perhaps I've always understood the rule incorrectly?
