Discover CLD?!?!

So I'm not real impressed with this (since I just made a post about getting 5K limits this is a step in the wrong direction)  I logged into my Discover account and just noticed I now have a CL of $800 down $200 from $1000.  I'm not real sure what to make of this since its never happened before, even when I didn't pay my CC bills, maxed them out and left them for months.  Sick of this one step forward 3 steps back stuff.

Re: Discover CLD?!?!

Do ou have a balance on the card?  How old is it?

 

They tried to CLD me and I gave them a call.  They asked me questions about my financials and CRs which I answered honestly.  They ended up keeping the limit. 

 

Hopefully your chat session is going well.  If not, maybe try calling them.

Ooo..is your lates w/ Discover or in the past?  Although you go over limit, but you PIF so it shouldn't be a problem IMO.  I hope you get it sorted out and keep your CL!  Pulling for ya buddy, keep us updated on the final results.

Re: Discover CLD?!?!

Thank goodness for Discover CS.  I forgot to mention the problem with those reasons...I've never been late, and never been over my limit, about 60% is usually the highest but PIF before each statement.  Shes not sure how this got posted to my account but she looked at my purchase and payment history and saw that I run about $1200-$1500 through my card (never at once) per month and pay multiple times per month resulting in PIF.  I told her this would be another reason for a CLI (hint hint) she said April 4th is my 3 month statement cut, and shes very sorry for the inconvience (with the CLD) and to feel free to do a CLI request in April, in the mean time I've been put back to $1000.  

 

Excellent CS at Discover.  Not sure how this got posted to my account, seems to always happen to me but they were quick to sort it out for me!  RELIEF!

WTG, glad it got sorted out okay....you should call back/ chat back with them and ask for $25 Starbucks / Coffee Bean card for the inconvenience.  They'll do it!
