Re: What was you first 2k+ limit card?

THanks for the responses! I got the Disco IT @ 1.5K, maybe after a year I can shoot for a CLI. Someone told me the next card to shoot for in about a year is an AMEX revolver (BCE), that should easily push me over.

Mine was Discover It. They gave me a $7000 CL when I applied earlier this year (February), and this month they gave me a $1400 auto CLI.

Didn't have secured cards.  My first "big" CL was Discover It at $6500, still my highest card.  Hoping to get it to 5 figs by next summer.
