Congrats @mgood on the increase! Miss Disco seems to only like to give me increases when I hold a BT with them, so maybe your $699 balance on the statement was the ticket.
Whatever you're doing, keep it up! Gotta love that steady increase in CL over the last year and a half. Cheers!
Congrats on the CLI! Discover is often generous with CLI's, I have been with them a long time and have been very happy with the way they treat me as a cardholder.

Just a month after a $1000 increase, when I'd had nothing for over a year before that.
I did leave a $699 balance on this statement, if that counts for anything. (Who knows with Disco?) Most quarters I spend right up to the $1500 cap for the 5% categories and stop. I hit that quicker than usual this quarter with the digital wallet.

That's fantastic!

I don't know. I wasn't trying to leave a specific amount, or any amount. It just wasn't convenient to pay it off before the statement cut this month. I will PIF before the due date to avoid interest charges. I think it had a statement balance of $136 last month. I'm shooting for $0 balance in January because I'm going to be applying for another card in late January or early February and I want to make my reports look as pretty as possible.
Starting Score: EQ8 680, TU8 713, EX8 701
Congrats! Nice to see some CLI love form Disco.
Reading this thread again and i tried again for an increase, i was denied a couple weeks ago lol, just got my first Discover CLI approved for a $1500 !
