Trying Amex CLI

[Anonymous]

So I jumped the gun and requested a CLI less than 60 days of opening account and they are saying I have to wait another 60 days before I can request increase.  Is there any use in calling the credit department to try and recon the increase, now that the 60 days from original is actually up?  Or should I just sit patiently for the 60 days?

Any help is appreaciated.

YMMV situation and results may differ 

There have been cases where you wait the extra 2 days and try again and be successful 

So OP in this case I would try again in 2-3 days 

Worst that can happen is from that point you wait

Also to add if denied for other reasons as in account to new etc etc you will have to wait 91 days to try again not 60

The best way to know if you asked to early is usually contained in the denial reason 

IIRC account ineligible

Correct.  The CLI option resets.  AmEx typically does not reconsider CLI denials OP, sorry.
