Discover IT Pre-approval

Still helping my dad with his credit. Today he was pre-approved on the Discover site with the IT card. To his and my surprise, for $1,250. This will bring his score even higher.He is right now at 650 and 656 respectively on CK-Trans/Equ. 

Dad's Info: FICO 8 Experian: 627, Credit Karma-Transunion 651; Equifax 656
Capital One QS: $376/$500
Discover IT: $111/$1,250
HSN: $509/$2,000
US Bank: $386/$500

Re: Discover IT Pre-approval

Would he be able to get approved for a Best Buy or Best Buy Visa? If so, would he receive a higher limit on the regular BB card over the BB Visa?

His scores are-CK Trans 651; Equ 656.

Re: Discover IT Pre-approval

Best buy is Citi, they tend to be more selective than discover.

And it's hard to base the approval odds with CK scores.
