How long between (successful) DIsco CLI's?

Any data points on how long must one wait before successful back-to-back soft-pull Disco CLI's?

At one point, I was getting them every 30-31 days (I think it was 31 days).

Last month Discover increased my CLI three consecutive times for a total of $25,000. I read your post and wandered over to Discover and hit the love button. They gave me an additional $5,000. So now I am at $30,000! My FICO score is between 828-848!

My Discover Timeline:

Opened on April 25th, 2018 $5000 

Credit Limit Increase on July 9th 2018 +1,500 = $6500

Credit Limit Increase on October 7th 2018 +3,000 = $9500

Credit Limit Increase on November 25th 2018 +200 = $9700

Credit Limit  Increase on November 25th 2018 +50 = $9750 (Double Dip)

Credit Limit  Increase on August 27th 2019 +2950 = $12,700

Credit Limit Increase on October 23rd 2019 +5,500 = $18,200

Credit Limit Increase on October 23rd 2019 +1,000 = $19,200 (Double Dip)

I just got a $2,000 CLI about a month ago and tried again after seeing this post but was turned down. Does it make you look desperate to them if you attempt too many CLIs?

it sounds like if you opened your card with an established credit history, they'll give you a cli every month. but if you opened the card with a new credit history, then they'll string you along for months and months with no cli.

Discover was one of my first credit cards I opened, and they do not like giving me CLIs even though I have bigger limits with other banks. 

In the last year I've only gotten 1 CLI of $300.

I believe it does, somewhat. Someone talked to a DISCOVER CSR about it, and the CSR confirmed that the cardholder hit the luv button so many times, it was on their screen.



Does it paint an opinion on your profile,  it might. They track 'em, so they could use that info for some reason.
