Can't wait for my discover  card to start growing. As of today it is officially my lowest limit major card.  (It just unsecured last month). It will be exciting to watch it grow. I have to give all the props with rebuilding my credit to this site. Less than 2 years ago I could only get a secured card and now I have over $25k of available  unsecured credit.

You have a huge number of cards, including some very low-rent cards... don't expect much. Discover likes to be your main card.

Granted, $1000 is poor. I just got an Amex with a £1500 limit and it's a bit disappointing as I could see myself wanting to spend more than that, say, on a computer.

As long as your CL matches what you want to spend, don't worry about it!

@nyancat yeah I understand what you're saying. I went a little app crazy in the first part of rebuilding. If I knew then what I knew now I would have definetly limited what I did. But since what is done is done all I can do is try and work on it now. Fortunately my AAoA is not too bad, it's 5.2 years.

I do plan on closing
Merrick Bank
Big Lots
Wayfair
Overstock

Which would leave me with 5 major cards and 3 store cards (all of which I would use)

MAJOR CARDS
Bank of America
Capital One
Navy cash rewards
Discover it
Sportsman guide (would like to close this eventually too)

STORE CARDS
Amazon prime
Walmart
Lowes

That will give you a much nicer lineup. Do that, wait six months, and I'd bet Discover will give you a CLI.
