Might want to check your Citibank accounts. Both my Diamond Preferred Rewards and Diamond Preferred cards let me increase my credit line by 2k several times today by using the credit line increase request "button." It's still allowing me to increase it, but I dont want to push my luck.

Most importantly, "During the evaluation process, a credit bureau report was not pulled."

YMMV.

NOTE: DON'T fill out the form. If you are eligible for an instant CLI with no pull you will receive a message such as:

Congratulations! Your credit line can be immediately increased by x,xxx.x for a total new credit line of xx,xxx.xx.

During the evaluation process, a credit bureau report was not pulled.

Please indicate below whether or not you accept this amount, or if you want a lower credit line, call Customer Service at 1-800-950-5114.

I got $1,600. I have a BT on this one so I don't want to mess that up with repetitive increases. Thanks Beernuts82!!

none here over 3 cards open > 1 year with no balances. I do check every few months though. I got about 2k on each card 2 months or so ago, so that explains it.

I got $1600 on one and $500 on the second.

Me: Denied right away Your credit report indicates one or more of your account balances with other creditors is high, compared to the available credit.

Your payments have been low on one or more of your accounts with us.

Girlfriend: $1,200 increase! Tried second time, got the form to submit (requiring hard pull)

Sister - Got form right away

Thanks OP!
