Yeah, on the old site I would just click on statement balance on card 2 and 3 then goto CLI on the drop down menu. On the new site, 2 of the cards don't even have that option in the drop down menu. Looks like they're back to the old site, so I can't try the URL trick.


Ok, looks like they made new look the default. I don't have CLI option for either of the two cards (both used to have it with the old interface).


i called them to ask what was up. I told them people on FW were getting super-mondo increases and I wanted one too. THey asked a few questions, but didn't give me one.

Poor Kevin, even Citi doesn't take him seriously

i tried that...didnt work for me...it just brought me to a page unavailable...


So, is it just me, or the new UI does not have CLI link?


I had a CLI link on the new interface for my DPR AMEX @20.5K. Got the form, though. I heard somewhere that Citibank doesn't like people who have large lines and zero balances now, and I always pay that one before the statement cuts.


Under which menu was the link?


It's JavaScript, so I may not have this dead right, but it looks like the CLI page is https://www.accountonline.com/cards/svc/CLIHome.do once you're logged in to the new interface. I didn't try plugging the URL in because I don't want to increment CB's internal luv button press counter. Good luck!


Thanks!

It has to appear under the Tools & Services menu. I see it for one account and get the long form. For all others,

They are continuing fidgeting with it. The CLI option was available to me a couple of days a go (got an increase), and now it's not available again.

For me it says "Service is unavailable for this account"

CLI request has been going to rehab for a while. A couple of times, she gets away and gets high on crack. Lately though, I've only seen lady CLI moderately buzzed - damn undercover Citi programmers! grrrrr As Willie might have written:

To all the banks I love to mount...
Who travelled in and out my account...
I'm glad they came along...
I dedicate this song...

<ABRUPT INTERUPTION>

(sad music begins playing) Solemn announcer addressing banks with CLI addiction:

"Have you been getting high a lot lately? Have your FWfriends been taking you for all you've got? Has crack been ruining your portfolio of investments? We at Programmers-R-Ruinous have performed many successful crack interventions. Citi is our most recent client success story. Call today 1-866-CRACKCLI for a free initial consultation."


CLI button showed on my 2 accounts. I am up to $25,000.


Since they have recently changed the layout...

Those that received a credit limit increase, did you fill out the form or did you get the automatic message?


Geez guys, it's very simple! City allows a CLI only every couple of months. Once you spun the wheel of fortune (hit the button) the option will disappear from the websites menu and not show up for a while

While "disappearance once used" is the behavior I've observed on several accounts (belonging to different people), reappearance after two months is not the behavior I've seen ... so I'd appreciate if you could tell us the source of your information.


Just paid off a large 0% BT last week. CLI button showed up and got an instant $750 increase. Not much but will take it.


I didn't say 'two months', I said a 'couple'. This is usually up to 6 months. Well that was before the whole economy went downhill so they might have tightened their rules in the last weeks...


Instant CLI by $750. Not a whole lot, but initial CL was 3K. CITI is among my lowest limits.

how many times a year does the credit limit appear?


Wid3load said: how many times a year does the credit limit appear?Once every ~90 days.


Do you think it'll appear if I stopped using the card...?

Thanks, instant CLI from 10000 to 12100.


dlr3 said: Wid3load said: how many times a year does the credit limit appear?Once every ~90 days.
Yep, button just reappeared after about 90 days for me. Used it to get another $2500.


Worked for me, instant increase of $2,000.


I guess I'll have to wait about another 2 months for an instant CLI


1500 increase yay!

who cares


finally got the CLI button back... a whole $400 increase, now at 25k. maybe thats the max without a hard pull, etc.


damn...i just keep getting the form...guess no instant cli for me...


Got an instant $2500 increase exactly after 94 days.


has anyone with the college card been able to increase their limits recently? it seems like I've hit a wall with them, but I'm able to increase the limit on my non-college driver's edge on a regular basis now (once every 90 days or so). I've graduated over a year ago, and now my non-college d-edge has a 10.5k limit vs 7.5k for my d-edge visa that i got during college, even though I've had the d-edge visa 2 years longer.

I haven't been able to do a CLI request online (w/o hard pull) on my mtvU card for a while now... Maybe it's because it's a student card?
