Discover verification?

Anonymous — Thu, 22 Mar 2018 18:09:32 GMT

I got approved for a secured discover it card. I am approximate 30days out before discharge in chapter 7 bankruptcy. This was okayed by my lawyer.

Today I received a call from discover security team stating I am receiving a letter to verify some info. To read it fully and carefully, sign and return it? Does anyone know anything about this or received anything similar.

They said I may receive my card before the letter but it will have a block on it until the verification letter is received back.

All the info on my application was accurate.

Never heard of that but then again I never had credit until 5 years ago.

When I accepted a preapproved offer for a second Discover IT card last week, I was asked online at the end of the application process to provide some verifying information, proof of residence and Social Security number. I sent them a scan of my driver's license but didn't have my Social Security card on hand; however, they called me later in the morning, asked me a few questions and then approved my new card.
