Yeah, they now have a card selector thing on their website where they ask you to estimate your credit rating. One of the options is something like "Needs Improvement." Before I saw this I never thought "Needs Improvement" was even an option with Discover!

Does Discover still do double cycle billing? If so, yuck :-P .... has kept me from apping to them in the past. It's a nasty practice if you keep a balance...Mostly, yes, they do. Some of their lower tier cards use average daily balance.
They don't do double-cycle billing on the Motiva, as it's set up specifically for those who want to carry balances. (That's what their entire rewards system is set up for.) There's still double-cycle on the More, and I think on the others. Pretty clear indication to me that Discover encourages PIF'ing, or at least carrying comparatively low balances.
It's very useful to decide before app'ing if it will be a PIF card or a balance card.
