Re: PenFed CLI button ?

It seems completely counter-intuitive, but pretend like you're going to apply for a new credit card.  You should see the option there.  It will be a HP, and unfortunately there is no option to apply for cards that are not available to the public, such as my Defender card.  For anything else, you'll need to call.

Re: PenFed CLI button ?

Also, there’s a post I read some months ago that if you hit the cli button on a card they’re no longer offering (e.g., Penfed Travel Rewards Amex), you will get a HP but get declined due to “No longer offering CLI.... “ language. I can’t confirm the accuracy of this though. Someone will have to chime in on this.

If you have the time to wait for PenFed. They just may give you a SP cli in a form of an offer. It's not available all the time, so they do hit randomly. Otherwise like the others have mentioned, if you ask for a CLI it will be a HP to do so. 

 

Good Luck!

And one more thing. Even though you look through your cards and you may see a so called "love button" it's a HP. I've called and asked prior to seeing the SP CLI in an offer at a later date. You will know when you see these offers. 

 

Good Luck!

Re: PenFed CLI button ?

Hi . I got an email today saying my CL went from 5k to 20k.

I looked online at my account and it is not reflected. How long does it take for it to show up on the online account?
