I tried to request a CLI online from Discover and I filled out all the required info (house payment, income etc.). It came back the following message:
Congratulations! You've been approved for a credit line increase of $1,000.
You requested a credit line increase of $1,000. Unfortunately, we were unable to approve the full amount. This increase of $1,000 brings your new available credit line $8,750, and your new cash line $3,900 .
You have the option to accept the $1,000 increase now, or request a higher amount. If you choose to request the higher amount, a credit bureau report will be requested and an inquiry will be placed into your bureau file, which could affect your credit score.

What would you like to do? A selection is required.
Accept the $1,000 credit line increase.
Request further review for requested amount. We will pull your full credit report and review the amount by which we can increase your credit line. This typically takes two business days.
I just accepted $1000 and I didn't want them to pull the credit report.
Congratulations, you are approved for a credit line increase!
You have been approved for a $1,000 credit line increase. This makes your new available credit line $8,750, and your new limit for cash advances $3,900.
$1000 is not much for CLI. At least, I got something from Discover. They sent me a CLI pre-approval letter to call me and I didn't. Today, I got it without any hard pull.

I'm glad this has worked for someone. I noticed yesterday that the option to ask for a CLI is no longer available for me.

You have to searched for it.

It's been there for several months until yesterday. Right above "Request a Credit Line Decrease" in the Manage Accounts section. But it's gone now. It's no big deal. I wasn't looking for a CLI right now. My post was more of a FYI than anything else.
I'll be curious if it's disappeared for anyone else.

The button is there for me, but every time I click it asks me to call the phone number.
I saw this option on my account.

+1 My CLI button is completely gone now, only the CLD option. What's up with that?
The CLI button is gone too. You have to use search function to find it out. Not all accounts is eligible for CLI without hard pull. I only got 1 out 5 Discover cards qualified for CLI.
