Joe, that part may be true above. However, looking at what has happened with Discover CLIs over the last 3+ weeks, I'm not sure anyone will be able to repeat what is posted in that chart above as it seems CLIs are drying out with Discover once you get to a certain limit. While one may still be able to grow their card fairly quickly to around $20k, getting much past that has proven to be extremely difficult task (or impossible) for many. Of course this is only going off of 3+ weeks of data, so there's a chance things could change or get "fixed" on Discover's end. I certainly hope so!
BBS, I understand - however, this is a new card ($2,500 SL) and I'm not planning to inflate it radically. I'd be happy to get it to par with my Cap 1 Platinum ($3,000 SL) once the Credit Steps increase kicks in (up by $500 to $3,500), assuming that I don't successfully request a CLI on that card in the meantime. In point of fact, I'm not sure whether I'd ever request CLI's more than quarterly at the very most, more likely per 6 months or even once annually.
