Getting in with Discover?

hi all

 

Credit scores currently are all high 500's and low 600. I have tried applying for the discover it card but get denied and dont get offered the secured card. Is there any other way of trying to get in with them? I know i cant get a discover online checking account as that is only provided to discover customers, should i try to open a savings account with them and see if that helps? I am really shooting for their secured discover card but never been offered to me. Any recommendation or advice would be grealt appreciated. Thanks

After reading the following thread, sounds like its hard to pin down Discover and their approval process.

Hello Jt!

I was approved for my Discover card with high 5's. I app'd fir the student card. Denied but countered with the secured. Try that.

I have read many people apping for the student version, what i dont understand is how you get past the point where they ask you for the schools name?

Pick one! IF they ask you for paperwork, I guess that's where you leave it alone. There's been reports of only needing to verify with DL & SS. Some don't need any verification.
Give it a go.

The second page ask you for school name and adress. Maybe their are other links that dont ask for as much info.

No that's correct. Pick one. Do you have student loans on your report? Use a school you've been to before.
