Discover IT is supposedly their new lax-underwriting card. Like what Freedom is to Chase or Zync is to AMEX.

You still have to have a decent file to get in with Chase, AMEX etc. Some do slip through the cracks, but not alot.

Very nice, alot of us would have dumped Capital One in a heart beat if it wasn't for it being our longest running card.  Clearly Discover is where the business is at.

Re: Cap1 declined- But Discover It Approved!

I'd keep it simply b/c its VISA or Mastercard. I went to the movies today only to find out they don't accept Discover...ugh. Had to use my Cap1 Visa

As of 2017, rebuilding...

OP

Did you apply for cash rewards mastercard or visa. Visa is a prime card , MC version is their subprime version.
