Discover miles

Hey All,

I finally apped and got my discover miles approval. $6500 limit. I am a little shocked. Was scared it would be low, but this is great.

I apped for amazon prime, but got a 30 day message. I already have 2 chase cards and preapproved for csp and slate, so little surprised. See what happens, but very happy to be getting the miles card.

Great!  Now you can pay your rent!!!

 

 

$6500 is better than where they started me off originally as you may know.  Now it's off to basecamp and start climbing the Disco mountain of CLI's.  Definitely looks like it was worth the wait too Smiley Happy

Re: Discover miles

Thanks, Austin! The fee is a percentage now, so probably won't be paying rent, sadly. But do have lots of new vet expenses with new puppy that will give me some good cash back. Plus all my spend is going to run thru it for the next year, unless my freedom has the better deal. Excited to get started with Discover!

Da m Landlords changing the rules just when you get your new plastic!!!

 

Just remember to read up on my thread for the SP CLI / timing / etc.  I wouldn't go overboard with the spend but, you should be able to rack up some "miles" on it.  If you hit the CLI button every other month after the first 90 days I'm guessing you'll amass a 30K+ CL on that card of yours.  Setup auto pay and let it ride!

Re: Discover miles

I think I may have been wrong about the rent from the start. I'd only break even on the fees. Errrr. Oh well, I still have use for the card. The wifi credit is cool and 3% for 12 mos? Heck yeah! I'll still get a good amount back, so I'm happy.

Re: Discover miles

Thanks Everybody! Still waiting on chase Amazon prime. When I've called they seem to talk like it's an approval pending verification, but they could just be being nice. Idk. Hopefully, I'll know soon. Can't wait to receive my miles card tho!
