unless you want to risk extended play in 'low limit hell' zone Iet your next app be for a card where you've a fair shot at a higher limit than what you already have, ie. a CU card or something like Nationwide, State Farm perhaps if any of their cards suit your spending profile.  Nordstrom is another great option as well but not sure how they would work with a thin file on initial CL, they're great about CLIs every 4 mos or so.

I have a chase card, cap1 and a BB store card. The other day I posted about getting a decent CLI one the BB. My starting limit on my BB was 3.6k then increased up to 4.7k.

Odd that Discover would give a $750 CL with your income and score.

I'd imagine they tend to be conservative with thin file apps.

Got a 1,500 Bestbuy card too!! =D

I am really happy about the dicover card honestly, seemed like one of the harder ones to get, i plan to use/pay in full each and every month.
