Re: NFCU - When to ask for CLI?

Yeah yeah Duncan way to rub it in our faces with your stinkin 25k limit! Lol



As far as SP's go I'm sure if you request a cli online and it goes to further review it will result in a HP

Re: NFCU - When to ask for CLI?

Well, you guys know by now that I love a SP increase, given all of the ones I have gotten from Walmart!  After reading this thread I went to NFCU's website and did an online request also.  I asked for an increase of $5,000, they countered with $2,000, so I took it.  My limit is now $22,000 with Navy.  Thanks OP for starting this thread!

You're welcome Les!  Smiley Happy  

 

So, did they do a HP or SP?

 

I'm scared to request it.  I still can't believe they gave me an unsecured card and even though my score is up 100-ish points since then (in only 2-ish months), I worry they will turn me down AND HP.   Working SO hard to try to get score up...don't want a ding for nothing.

I think the only way to ensure that it's only a SP is to have your CRs frozen. When you app for a CLI online, the line above the submit button authorizes them to check your credit and doesn't distinguish between hard or soft. IMO, if it's only been 2 months, the likelihood is they're going to do a HP.
