Re: Discover CLI denied

Yeah, don't feel bad.

Me and my DW have combined income near 200K, joined account; I'm in the 700 range and she's in 750; called them several times after 6 months. NO LOVE. Stuck at $1000.

My little sister is still in school and got her initial CL at 6K and auto luv after 3-4 months to 9K.

Something is wrong with Discover! I stop using the card and am now using AMEX full time

Well, I am continually baffled by all the issuers.  Chase took over from WaMu in 2009, they cut my CL and raised my APR.  I've beem stuck at the same $1.3K limit ever since.  Discover, which got burned by me when I went through a truly bad patch, gave me an instant approval at $6.5k.  Tried multiple times to recon the Chase decline of the Marriott card, and got no where.  Have never missed a payment with Chase or anyone, since my 07 BK7. 

 

I think it would be easier to locate a specific grain of sand in the Kalahari, than it is to try to understand how these banks make their decisions.

Re: Discover CLI denied

Sorry to hear that :-(

 

Discover has been pretty generous to me...

 

Opened Discover More June last year with $2K line... then increased to $5K on December (hard pull - Transunion) then increased again last week to $15K (again another hard pull on Transunion)

 

I always pay in pull before the statement cuts and I charge at least $1K a month on the card...

Re: Discover CLI denied

Truly sorry to hear thatSmiley Sad

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Re: Discover CLI denied

That's crazy!  I cannot believe they did not approve you.

 

Please be careful with any CC company, I was burned by BofA a few weeks ago during a CLI.  I asked if it was a soft pull before submitting the request via online form and was told it was.  A day later the credit monitoring alerts started rolling in... you guessed it.

 

Be sure to keep an eye on your reports (all 3).  Call them out on it if they didn't live up to their word.
