Discover Pull

Okay, so I've got the pre-approval and I'm waiting for closing dates and reporting. I'm planning to pull my reports before pulling the trigger, just to get a rundown before I do. Decided on the It Cash Back card. So, before exiting the garden...

From your personal experiences;
•Which bureau did Discover pull from for you?
•Did you cold app or were you pre-approved?
•What was your score at the time?
•What SL were you approved for?
•Any other useful info?

Hi,

 

 

When I join Discover on Jan 2019 ... I was noising around the pre-qual form. I happen to notice for me that the pre-qual form did Equfax. I've seen reports that if you don't use the pre-qual form, it would turn to be Experian. Since I was new with Discover and gotten their Student version of Cash Back (5%), I did submit an app thru the pre-qual and they only pulled Equifax. I called the next day and Discover told me that I was approved, but didn't know for the credit line until the email came in my mail box (which said $500).

 

For me, I can see $500 for only having 1 Car Loan and 1 AU Credit Card and no relationship with Discover.

 

Hope this helps.

Re: Discover Pull

I had a recent approval with Discover last week after a denied Chase Freedom card due to short history and a recent paid charge off. Hopefully, it can give you some tips. I think getting a fixed APR is a good sign on your prequal.

I hope Discover grants you all your hopes and dreams!

Re: Discover Pull

From your personal experiences;
•Which bureau did Discover pull from for you? Equifax — I had been using Discover scorecard so they already had Experian. 
•Did you cold app or were you pre-approved? Prequalified
•What was your score at the time? 670
•What SL were you approved for? $7500
•Any other useful info? I wouldn’t apply for Disco without a prequal, they’re generally pretty solid. Make sure you are prequalified when you actually app and you should be good.

For Discovers prequal, it always seems to pull TU for me, but a couple of years ago when i actually pulled the trigger, they pulled EQ.  keep us posted Smiley Happy  and good luck!!

Re: Discover Pull

They pulled EX for me 

I was prequaled—I got about 115 mailers

Score was probably in the low 700s but extremely thin file

5.5k SL

That was only about 2.5 years ago, so mine has grown well. 

 

Good luck! Great card and company!
