When Discover approved you, did they send your EQ score by mail?

Yes, just got the letter from Discover in the mail today, exactly 1 week after my approval- 694 Fico (EQ) but it doesn't list the items that impacted my score the way Amex letters do. Funny, you're asking b/c I just read your post on the Discover thread & was going to ask you what score they gave you on your approval. BTW, congrats on your Discover approval! Happy you pulled the trigger & it turned out well for you. Your CL is even better than mine! 

Btw- Discover won't tell you your score over the phone, I trIed. They told which report they pulled but that's it.

Thanks!!! I was not going to apply for it, but your post in the other thread made me think a bit more, and then I decided to go for it last night.  It didnt show me my score online, so I will have to wait for it in mail. My EQ was at 702 a month ago, but since then I had 2 inquiries (one for the auto loan approval and the second one for possibly discover), so it may take a hit. But, oh well, I am not planing to apply for anything anytime soon. Time to garden for sometime. 

Are you planning to PC to Discover IT or just wait?

Amazing app spree!  Congrats on your success and on the success of your having the patience to wait until your report was ready for the app

Way to go!

@Cowboy- My most recent known credit scores are in my siggy. I have to wait for letters from Amex & Barclay's to find out what my EX & TU scores were at the time of my apps. Amex & Chase pulled EX. Discover pulled EQ- 794 (as per Discover, not understanding the stingy CL w/ that score but whatever) Barclay's pulled TU. My credit profile at the time of my apps.: 1 baddy on TU (other 2 are spotless)- paid tax lien of $350 from over 3.5 yrs ago. 2 inquiries on EQ & TU, 3 on EX Overall util around 23% 3 cards with util at 43-45% each Oldest acct 10.9 yrs (backdated Amex) Newest acct - 1 month (2 accts) 5 new accts within the past 8 months Perfect payment history No loans/mortgages/car leases A few really old AU accts Hope that helps.

Thanks, Webhopper. Waiting for my reports to update before apping was the hardest part.
