Uber and Discover approvals! UPDATE w/ recon

After getting AMEX and US Bank approvals for my DW, it was my turn.

I decided to go for Uber card and Discover IT to fill out our portfolio of cards.

I've got an itch to try for the NFCU or a separate US Bank Cash+ for me, but trying to hold myself back.

 

Got an instant approval for Uber at $2k SL.

   - Called the backdoor # for a recon (happy with the $2K but would love to have more cushion)

   - Asked about employment history and wanted to know about the BK7 in 2012

   - They said that it shows how we have established ourselves well since the BK, which they like to see

   - Asked how much I was looking for, and I told them $6k (didn't want to be too greedy)

   - They approved the $6k with a soft pull!  Kind of wish I asked for more, but this will be perfectly fine!

 

Got an instant approval for Discover IT at $11k SL.

 

Will post some DP's in a moment.

I actually don't use Uber and don't have the app, so I used the below online link:
