they are generally somewhat lenient.

I think your approval odds are decent, though I am guessing they will approve you for a lower CL.

They also offer a secured option if they cannot offer you an unsecured card.

lenders usually use your current limits as "benchmarks", but theres no guarantee they will match. if your income supports it, then chances of them matching or even issuing a higher CL is higher.

No, But you may be able to Recon the limit.

 

With your EQ and overall profile i forsee at least a $3,000 CL.

Thanks for the input I applied a few months back with a weird old amex co reporting from 2012... Eq was 647 then ..That has dropped off, might pull the trigger.. I hear this disocver is popular around here
