mission lane CLI to 800 from 300

I stupidly went for one of experian's pre approvals back when I was starting to rebuild I think 6-7 months ago and got a Mission lane card with a crappy 39 AF and a 300 CL.

 

saw that it would grow so figured Id keep it for a year and see what happens.

 

have kept it mostly zero'ed out except for one or two statements. The increased me to 800 from 300 so that's a 500 CLI! I was kind of expecting it to go to 2000 or 3000 TBH based on my income and past/current CLs even in rebuild stage.

 

I was in the low 600s when approved and now in the mid to high 600s across the board. student loan lates from right before the pandemic are holding my score down. :-(

 

guess it's a step. will close if it doesn't grow more in the next 6 months. don't wanna waste $39!

Congratulations. Why keep it open if it has an AF?

Re: mission lane CLI to 800 from 300

Thanks everyone!! @keekers  bc I already ate the annual fee/inquiry/aaoa hit and its only 7 months old so Ill see if it goes up any more to help with score improvement and utilization. 

 

I will repeat: I am in rebuild stage. current scores 660+

At least it isn't first premier! hah

 

also card is known to do  3 mo auto clis. I was strategic. just hated that it started so low.

Re: mission lane CLI to 800 from 300

I have the card and it went from 500 to 600. It's been like 4 more months.. nothing.  I can't request a credit limit.  I have the no benefit card.  But I have no annual fee. I ll give it a few more months and if nothing I'm closing. If i could request a credit increase it would be okay. If i get some credit lithe cli I will close it.   

 

Congrats!  Our scores are similar your doing better than me.  It's only padding at this point for me.
