Got approved for a Discover it credit card

With a 2400 credit limit is this good? Do you have to have good credit to get approved for the discover card? This is my first time posting and I just joined the community here at fico I'm excited 😊 and I get so tempted to apply for credit cards any input would be fantastic thanks in advance

Re: Got approved for a Discover it credit card

Welcome and congrats on your approval. My belief is that your overall profile matters (not just credit scores). If you don't mind, take a little time and post your stas such as:

- FICO scores

-Inquires

-utilization (if any)

-collections/derogs

-AAOA

- installment loans

 

Give us a little history and what your goals are with credit. You will get tons of advice, opinions and guidiance....congrats again and good luck on your journey!!...Smiley Happy

Re: Got approved for a Discover it credit card

Discover tends to be a little conservative out of the gate, but roughly sometime after the third billing cycle if your scores are progressing..or you are where you are now..  youll likely get an auto CLI.... (I think they treat it like a probationary period and gives them time to figure your spending habits and such) if not can try for one around that time ... if you can, try to wait a week after your third statement then manually submit a CLI... otherwise if they auto CLI you,, go online and request one and you might be able to "double dip"  Usually if they auto CLI you, there can be "more for the asking".... and they use a soft pull for CLIs... only if you get explicitly asked to by a CSR for a hard pull, or you get a checkbox saying this will be a hard pull.. (not might since the soft says we may pull your CR for request... but its a SP unless explicitly saying so) 

 

Congrats
