Re: Discover more approvals

Anyone know if I can call and get the Discover IT card? Is it just an instant PC? Or do I have to wait?

Re: Discover more approvals

If your scores were > 650 I would reccomend you apply, but your < 650 score combined with the recent baddy is a recipe for a denial.

For Discover More?  Isn't it 640 + 1 year of clean revolving history?

Re: Discover more approvals

I was approved last month

CS was 708 on Experian

AAoA was right about 6 years

Limit $10,000

15 Mos. 0%

 

My highest limit at the time was $1,900 from merrick.  I had to call in and verify information because we just moved that weekend before applying.  Answered some questions, she said "what I can do right now is offer an approval at $10,000 if that is OK."  I didn't want to push my luck at the time and ask for more than that!
