New Discover feature: REQUEST INCREASE button!

[minimock]

Looks like they copied Capital One's "Modify Your Features button" lol

I don't have the Request CLI button on my Discover More, so I went through the Customer Service tab, and got.....

We're Sorry.

Your credit limit increase request cannot be processed at this time. For assistance, please call 1-800-DISCOVER (1-800-347-2683).

Drat.  Not in the mood for "NO" today.

Opened in 2008 @ 6K.  Still @ 6K.  Used to carry a high bal, but now PIF.

Now it is gone missing! Tried twice and now it has left. Stupid buttons enticing my itchy fingers and all...

I don't have a button, but I can go to CS and an option is there. Had my card since 2006 at $5000, this is my primary card with perfect history. Got the stupid can't process message....oh well, when I get my Amex jet blue, it's bye bye Discover!

Comeon Discover there is better way to do this

There is a way to call and do it through the automatic process or go through a CSR. If you like your discover card enough, take the hard inquiry. If not, oh well. Hard inquiries are not as much as a big deal that people make them out to be.

Same thing for me, I've only had my Discover for 4 months tho, I already knew that Discover will not even consider a CLI until you have had the card for 6 months, but I thought I'd try it anyway.

Well said I love discover CS and took hard hits for CLI's but if u r applying for new credit it better to have less inquiries

Yes, yes they are.  Espeically in this age of banks trying to find any excuse possible not to extend credit to you, whether new or CLI.

GE Money Bank seems to be the only one that is willing to look at how you've used their card in determining whether to give you an increase...the way it should be.

The feature is not available for me. The only option that I get is If I would like a decrease in my credit limit.....um no lol
