I have had this card for 4 months, since the beginning of January of this year. It was my first credit card.
For 4 months I could not make Discover budge on the $1,000 limit.
Today I pressed the CLI button on their website and was offered a $1,000 increase for a total of $2,000. 😊
I typically put a large balance on it around $600. Then, paid it off before the statement closing date to under 10% utilization.
ymoneyman great credit line increase! You have caught Discover's eye ...
Congrats on a 100% CLI! Disco will be good to you—have no fear!

Congrats on the 2x CLI! I'm not sure if this also applies to the Student variant, but once you've been approved for a CLI on the Discover it, you can call them asking for even more of a CLI (a.k.a. double dip/dd) with a soft pull as long as you do it on the same day. Worst they can do is say no!
That is a Nice CLI
YOU...
CONGRATS @ymoneyman on your 2X Disco CLI and Thanks for the DPs!!!
Congrats on doubling your limit!
Reporting 60% against your limit and paying in full cycle after cycle should be more than enough reason for any lender to provide a nice CLI... usually something that Discover would ignore, but I'm glad it worked for you!
