Discover has made my day!!

So I've had my discover card for almost two years now and I've had the same limit of $500 but I was a student before and didn't make that big a deal over it! Well, I've been lurking on the board for a month now and you guys have helped me get a AMEX BCE card( limit $2000) raise my Oldnavy from $250 to $1000 so I figured I would trust you guys when you said to call discover. Today I finally became brave and called. The lady I spoke with was really nice, and told me my limit was very small and she couldn't believe I had never had an increase. She asked me what I expected and I guess I took so long so she said let me just put your info into the computer and see what we come up with! She than says congratulations you're been given an increase to $3000 dollars!!! I can't believe this just happened!!! Thanks you guys!!!

Congarts keep hanging out here and next time you will jump and say 10K before they even askSmiley Happy

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?

Yes Discover reps are very friendly, and congrats on your CL was it a SP or HP? Either way it was a good bump!
