Re: approved discover secured card

More information is needed...scores, credit file, current cards, utilization, any derogatories?

Re: approved discover secured card

Based on your earlier posts, you have been approved for CC. Also, you are attempting to have derogatories removed. In time as the baddies age and your credit ages, you will be approved for unsecured CC.

Congrats on your approval. 

To answer your question, your profile is not yet meeting unsecured lenders criteria yet, but it will eventually with good credit behaviors. Your BK is still fairly new as well.

Question..why are you using LL?

IMO that’s a waste of money and you may actually make things worse. Let it happen naturally (your iib and Bk are legit). 

Good luck!
