Chester P. Dexter Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 The husband just got a Texaco/Chevron increase of $200 and I've gotten several (started at $400 and now up to $1,200.)He also got his Juniper iTunes APR reduced from 22.24 to 15.24 just by griping that he was not likely to use a card with that high of an APR.Merrick H (Hooters) raised me to $3,200 a month or two ago from $3,000. They did me a favor by, in the next breath, promising a rate hike for me in December because it prompted me to pay the whole balance off just now. I may pay a lot of interest to a lot of banks, but Merrick Bank will never get another penny from me. They've gotten enough already! I'll take interest free loans from them for a few weeks at a time, though. Schwing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

insomniac Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 My Hooters got bigger this month, up to $3200 now.What's your utilization been on that card? Mine has been pretty high but is being reduced, and I was concerned they were only giving increases to those with high(er) util. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine has been pretty high but is being reduced, and I was concerned they were only giving increases to those with high(er) util.The utilization hasn't been regular on it, and the highest I think its ever been was maybe 30%. I've had a 0 balance on it for the last two months. The CLI's on it have been fairly regular, but this is the first time it was only a $200 increase. Its usually been $400.

insomniac Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 My CLIs have occurred every 5-6 months in $300 intervals, with util over 50% for most of the last year. The last CLI was in July, so I'll see what happens in the next couple of months. I expect $0-200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stefdr Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Wal Mart bumped me up to $725, up from $600. I might cancel the Target RedCard, I haven't shopped there in about a year, but GF does if there is a sale, and then does the PIF when the statement shows up.

insomniac Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Requested and received a $500 CLI on my credit union Visa earlier this week ($1500 -> $2000), now that it's at the 6-month mark. It cost me a hard pull, though, so I won't be doing that again for at least a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laine540 Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 (edited) I requested and received a $500 CLI from CareCredit.I did NOT receive a CLI from Target at 3 months. I've only had the card for 4 months, so I'm not too upset about that yet. I hope I get one before the next holiday season.

They are very generous at giving CL's. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laine540 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 I wouldn't have been brave enough to ask for the CLI from GEMB yet for the CareCredit, but I thought I was going to need a root canal. Thankfully I do not need the root canal now, but I have some other dental work looming on the horizon. The CLI took me to $1500 and my Eq fico was 637.Esquire, your scores are looking good - I bet you wouldn't have any trouble getting a CLI from them whenever you want!I tried for a CLI on my $200 Cap One card, but was declined: acct "too new". I didn't have much hope for that one, but what the heck. I need to just wait patiently for my credit steps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinomosin Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 I just got my 1st ever CLI from HSBC from 1000 to 1200. I have had the card about 25 months so I don't know if it had anything to do with the 2 year mark or anything. My balance has been sitting between $650 and $750 for about 6 months and last week was the 1st time I made a payment of over $100 ($105.)They sent me a nice "CONGRATULATIONS, It's always a pleasure to share good news with our cardmembers letter!"

aloha Posted March 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 congratulations dinomosin! the 2 year mark may be why i just received a letter from B of A notifying me of a 400 CLI (from $7400 to $7900).
