Any chance of getting Discover reopened?

[Anonymous]

I had a discover card that I opened in feb '97 and never late.  I closed it in may '05, before I knew what a BAD thing that was to do!!  Do you think Discover will even consider reopening after almost three years?  Think they'll pull my CR? 

Thanks!

It never hurts to ask. Yes, they will pull your credit. Do you know your FICO scores?

Discover is a big EX and TU puller. It's better if your scores are over 700 and free from baddies. Discover is by no means an easy approval. Though their underwriting is not as stringent as it once was, they are still considered to be one of the elite issuers.
