Re: Freedom CLI itch

Tell me about it! I just got my Freedom in January. I haven't even got my first bill yet so I know it is too soon LOL! But hard to be patient!

Re: Freedom CLI itch

Chase gave me an auto-cli on my Freedom card when the 6th statement cut. They upped me from $2200 to $5000. I did use the card actively during the first couple months to earn the bonus UR points they were offering at signup. I PIF and my utilization on other cards is low so I guess that helped.

Re: Freedom CLI itch

I've pretty much given up on Freedom increasing my limit without a HP. I don't need a CLI that bad.

Re: Freedom CLI itch

you can wait with me! 

i really wanted to wait for my year mark to ask for a cli (if they dont auto me again) (july)

but figured why not wait until my 5k card is at a year(decemeber) , so then they can match it and they can see im responsible with that one. 

 

im thinking of just going all out right after the first of the year. by then i wont have any inquries for 1.5 years and ill only be taking like 3 inq's (chase cli, amex card, and possibly discover/boa idk)

Re: Freedom CLI itch

Wow! That is super nice! :-) I will be jumping up and down if I get an increase like that on 6th statement.
