I will admit that when I saw the $69.7K, $70K did cross my mind.  I know it is best for me to leave well enough alone, but who knows down the road.  Smiley Happy

In regard to my spend, that is one of the reasons that I was expecting a denial.  Other than a $450 charge that I did at an electronics store yesterday (that is why the available is showing less than the CL), I have only put about $100 or so a month on the card over the past few months.  A couple of years ago when Discover had the promo of doubling cash back (don't recall the name of that promo at the moment), it was pretty much my go-to at the time and it got a LOT of use.  Since then, not so much.   

 

Not sure if this is a continuing factor or not, but I always pay the full bill completely before the statement cuts, so that the credit reports are showing $0.

Thank you, gdale.  You are one of the people I owe this success to.  Not sure if you will remember or not, but you and few others were extremely helpful and supportive when trying to figure out my rebuild process.  I am extremely grateful.  I am pleased to report that the two major baddies are set to fall off around fall of this year, give or take with any EE luck.  Smiley Happy   Thank you once again!

Congrats! What's the maximum for Discover credit limits?


I am not sure what the maximum is with Discover.  I know there was someone on this forum a couple of years ago, or perhaps it was a friend of someone on the forum, that claimed to have a $130K limit, however I am not sure that there was ever anything presented to back that up.

My Discover Card CL had been at $63,700 for about the last six to eight months.  Just for the heck of it, over the weekend I hit the love button, fully expecting a denial.  I got the under review message, indicating it would be 2 or 3 business days for a decision.  

 

A few minutes ago, I was notified that I have been granted a CL of $69,700!    I was very surprised, as I do not have a perfectly clean credit report.  

 

I am curious what the highest Discover will go?  Have we seen above this range very often?
