when should I ask NAVY For a CLI

My credit is new, I was approved for a 1500.00 cash rewards and a 3k navcheck, I requested a navcheck CLI withing a wek of opening it, and it was denied due to insuficient experience at my current limit.. So i have been running alot thru the nav check (dont really care about the daily interest) and them pay back what I used within a week.  I would like to get my cash rewards up to 5k so I can PC to a siggy.  any ideas?

Re: when should I ask NAVY For a CLI

Congrats. I have read some people have requested and received a CLI at three months. Although most seem to get it a six months. From my understanding the first request will be a HP. I am waiting for six months to request mine.

Re: when should I ask NAVY For a CLI

I got both of my navy cards in December.  I have only had 2 statements cut, and I applied for a CLI, (misreading the above thread to see when to stop on the process).  it was an HP attempt both times.  granted, I took advantage of their BT offer and have both cards at very high (over 80% ) UTI, but am making 3 to 4X the min payment each month... I will try again in September, when all my accounts should be in better standing. 

 

Truth be told, I really don't NEED any more CLIs, I just need to quit getting "caught up in the moment" and thinking I can get what others have... I have more then I need now.

You are using your cash rewards or navcheck?
