2nd Discover IT Approved.

So i started my rebuild little over a yr ago with a discover secured card 200 limit.   It graduated at the 7th month and i have only gotten on CLI of 200 on that card. So a total limit of 400 in over a year of history. Not sure if its bucketed but it wont grow.  I got a pre-approved offer from Disco and due to the history with the first card, didnt expect much.   I am "trying" to garden, but the urge got the best of me.  clicked the button..  Boom  2500.  0% apr for 14 mos and another year of CB match. 

 

DP's   (current scores listed below)

Util: 8%

new accts in the last 12 months: 16

INQ's..   close to triple digits (dont try this at home kids)

 

So i'm not sure why the original card didnt grow, but i have this one now.  May do the combine next year after 0% ends.

Re: 2nd Discover IT Approved.

Thanks, i did some small BT's to it as well, just for the 0% apr. i wonder if that helped, but either way i have a decent limit Disco now.   I seriously think my first disco is bucketed in the "your credit sucks and we dont CLI secured cards even after grad".  that's the impression that i get..
