Re: Absolute Shocker by Discover!!

Congratulations on both of your approvals!!! Smiley Happy I received a $4k Disco in Feb and now it's $11k... I called and closed Credit One right after getting the approval. They will both grow, just be patient. Smiley Happy

DH & I still in Re-Build (1 yr.)  We both started with $200 Secured Discover while also getting a lot of other Secured & Unsecured good & crap Cards. Anyhow, we both graduated with $1500 limit & no luck for an increase (although still our highest cc limit). For the heck of it tonight, did the Disco Pre-Qual app. for DH (Exp now 680). He pre-qual'd for the IT & Chrome so I opted for 2nd IT & he was approved. Clicked on link to see CL & saw $8,000!!! Left it on my screen for about 10 mins. jumping around in complete DISBELIEF! Not much for a lot of you folks but for us, CRAZY! I figured, well let me try for myself (Exp 666). Surprisingly I was pre-qual'd for the IT & Chrome too. Went for 2nd IT too. Cannot BELIEVE approved for $4,000!!! For months, I kept wishing we had one card to put everything on and pay off every month. BAM!! Now we can 86 the crap cards. OMG!!!


Congrats, that is a nice SL and shows that your hard work really paid off.   Happy for the both of you having been/still being a rebuilder with a story somewhat similar, i get it.     Awesome work, you both deserve it.

Those are great increases!  If it makes you feel any better, you can compare yourself to those like me, who hope to one day be in your shoes.

 

And, with only 2 cards in my portfolio (and total CL < 6k), I definitely know how to play the card-swap game, so I can appreciate your relief.

 

Congrats on your rebuild success!

+100! That part! Mob bosses are a different breed & definiately not the norm.

 

Plus, these mob bosses on here aren't fooling anyone. I know what they're doing when they speak in code -

 

"Disco just approved $25K" - Total sham & I've broken your codes!

  • Disco = Night Club
  • $25K - Reward

Basically, a hit was just approved for $25K if you take the mark out while on the dance floor at the club. Now, we just have to figure out who the mark is. Smiley Indifferent
