Re: Discover secure card grads reunion

Current Scores: 711 TU, 664 EX, 613 EQ

Scores @ Graduation: 645 TU

Secured CL: $700

CL at graduation: $2,000 ($1,300 CLI at graduation)

Card open date: 03/2018

Card graduation date: 11/2018

Post-graduate CLI info: None yet. Expecting one next month, because I was getting denied for the past few months for high utilization, which I have recently gotten down to ideal levels. However, I got denied for a full year after my graduation for "unsufficient experience at current credit limit."

Re: Discover Secured Graduation??

I got this message too and confirmed my address right away because I think it's preparing to graduate and refund the deposit. Why else would they say that? I'm in my sixth month, so we'll see come March. 😬 good luck to you all too!

Re: Discover Secured Graduation??

A heads up. You'll usually see your available credit increase in the app if/before you get the graduation email.... and this may be after the statement generates....

Re: Discover Secured Graduation??

They informed me today that I have to wait until my 8th statement cuts 2 receive an account overview to unsecure my card??? My scores today jumped up back into the 620's which pretty much guarantees I meet the criteria credit score wise to graduate. I'm not really in a rush so an extra month won't kill me LOL. I'm just going to sit back and see what happens in 30 days. the benefit from waiting actually is I'll have to baddies deleted from my credit report and I'll be added as a authorized user on an account adding $10,000 to my available credit. By time they get my next report I should be well into the 640s. So hopefully they give me a respectable credit limit increase. I also joint Navy Federal credit Union last month and a 640 score will guarantee me an n rewards card I think? I have deposit some money into the account and purchase a CD 12 month at 3.4% APR which is great it was a limited time special offer!
