Just passed 6mo anniversary. Another thread on this board gave me courage to call - had $4,000 limit, requested additional $2,000 and got it immediately through the automated menu. (I don't think there was time for them even to soft pull, so I'm guessing based only on history, but not sure.)
I use this card often, and run around $2,000/month through it.
I'm still amazed that I even have this card, I responded to a pre-approved offer with scores in mid 600's and was approved instantly. (no recent baddies, but TONS of old ones...)
Now a 50% CLI at 6 months.
I'm liking Discover.

It started out as a student card but I believe it's changed now because I have the option to BT. Is there a max limit on credit lines for student cards? I should call and see if it's still student or what.
They can still get an AR. I don't think they do a pull for the phone CLI unless you get to a rep and ask for it. I can't pull EX myself right now, so I can't see what kind of softs are going on there.

Does Discover not pull EX? Your frozen report my be causing the transfer to CSR because they want to soft you, but I thought previous banks before frozen report could still get it... so I don't know, maybe I'm just talking nonsense!
