Guys & Gals,
Just wanted to share my recent experience. I finally pulled the trigger on apping for Discover IT after completing the preapproval screening. To my surprise I was approved instantly!!! What a great feeling!!! I definitely do not have the best scores with quite a few dings on my report (30,60,90,120 day lates). All the major lates are pretty old but still hurt my score. I'm paying off one credit card at the moment but I'm still at around 75% utilization (4500/6100) My utilization is on the way down tho so just taking baby steps... My Fico scores through this website are TU - 654 and EQ - 635. Phewwww...feeling great right now. Just want to thank everyone on these boards for all of their contributions. I have been lurking for quite sometime and just wanted to share my positive experience and possibly encourage those who are on the fence on apping. Thank you discover for the opportunity, I will not let you down.
What is the best number to call and check my credit limit? Also when could I expect an alert as to what report they pulled?
Thank you in advance

1800 DISCOVER or the link above.
Congrats. Hopefully you get a solid CL that will in and of itself help your score by lowering UTL.
Congrats!
Nice! Congratulations!
Thanks everyone. I've recently gotten really serious about my credit. If all goes well I hope to be at 5-9% utilization in about 3 months. I heard it takes a few hours for the discover account to be online, Does anyone have any experience with this?
Congrats
Congrats, it's a really nice card!
