NFCU CLOC Approved :)

So on 1/1/19 I pulled the trigger on a Discover IT and NFCU Platinum got approved for both with the Discover IT SL $2500 and NFCU Platinum SL $4200. I was happy about that as these are my first premium cards that can actually grow into something. I ended up doing a prequal at CAP1 thinking i could maybe get a better card and mistakenly app'd for a QS1 thinking it was a regular QS and to my suprise a $300.00 SL So I called them to try and recon for a CLI only to realize my error and was then told I could PC my platinum to a QS so I did that (no recon on the CLI ) and will go ahead and age the QS1 for 6 months catch the auto CLI then do a Combination and merge the QS1 into the QS so i can keep all the CL. I was going to the garden but before i did i decided to try for a NFCU CLOC but i wanted to get approved more then I wanted to try and get a very large SL so I told myself to ask for 6000 then i said no ask for 50% of that or 3000 then i went to push submit and said well don't be greedy you want to get approved so ask for 2000 ( LOL) then i got cold feet and settled on $1500.00 and what da ya know instant approval. I am not mad at them they HP EQ which was at a 713 with 5 INQ, no baddies I am sure I could have got the 3000 maybe more but I don't care I'm just grateful to be in with them and will now Stop and go to the garden for no less then 6 months.

 

I think I will get prepared to dump my Creditone, Merrick and First Premier which i believe are all bucketed cards (I could be wrong) but I will wait a little and age the new stuff some before i dump them.

 

But in 4 days I have been able to add $8500.00 in the mix Good New Years Start for me I'm taking baby steps. Thanks to everyone on here all the information I get is so valuable.

Re: NFCU CLOC Approved :)

LOL...

With Navy you always ask for MAX because they counter! The Max on CLOC is $15k, and they are use to seeing people ask for max.

It will report to all three CRA's as "revolving" and in comments LOC. It reports every other month like clock work.

Congrats to you!

Re: NFCU CLOC Approved :)

@pizza1 Yeah that's what i thought too but I have been seeing several post where it was indicated they were not offering counters anymore and have been denying those who ask for too much. True some have been able to reapply or recon and get approved for lower amounts then the max so I just figured I would start low and get approved then go for the max on a CLI request later. Oh well either way I'm sure I left money on the table LOL. Silly me.....
