Wow!  I haven't seen that kind of action out of Discovery in a long time.  Congratulations🥳


I honestly was thinking maybe they'd throw another $500 or $1000 at me if anything (I've received plenty of "Insufficient use of current credit line" denials.

I was pleasantly shocked!

Why not? i haven't touched it in at least a year.

LOL! If there's one thing I've learned about Discover, there's no "one way" love affairs. They want to make some swipe fee's if they're going to ante up on a credit line. Capital One seems to be the same way, as I put similar charges through my Savor MC and gained a $3K auto CLI a few months back.

Discover gave me lots of CLI's during my first year or so (SL was $5500) and quickly shot up from there, but slowed way down once I slowed down on the spend (roughly about the time I passed my cash back match period and took them out of the daily driver wallet position). Even with the little $500 CLI's and outright CLI declines I've had over the last 5 years with the card, I can't say that Discover hasn't been generous with me for what they've seen spend-wise.
