Approved for discover!!!

I'm so excited! They have denied me 3 times in the past 5-6 years and the other day I got an offer, I said I wasn't going to do it but I hit the button and was approved! Does anyone know how long I have to wait to find out my credit limit? I'm thinking of calling but I'm sure 30 minutes later is too soon, haha

 

My current credit scores are an 685 with transunion and a 694 equifax


Starting Score: 480-550 in 2005
Current Score: 761 TU/764 EQ - 08/1/2013 /754 EX 12/15/12
Goal Score: 800

Re: Approved for discover!!!

Congrats!

 

They should post a decision online when they email you a confirmation, or by snail mail. My account application was instant approved, but until they got back to me a couple of days later, on the application website that I learned my CL was $8,000. 737 EQ 712 TU 733 EX

 

However, the APR was outrages 14.99, but will definitely take advantage of the balance transfer offer by transferring from what was a great credit card company (Chase) to being crap. After that will make the concerted effort to pay in full. But like the 1-5% rewards programs.
