Re: Get Out Your Crystal Balls

Yes, the high amount owed on the CO was my biggest hanging up point of calling Discover to apply. I suppose the one bit if good news is that I only have 20 months remaining before this drops off.

Re: Get Out Your Crystal Balls

I actually was losing sleep over the past couple of days trying to figure out if I should try or not try for the Discover It CC.  I decided why not try, since it was 50 / 50 on people saying to try.  Results:

 

Approved for $1,200 CL.  Yeah me!!!!  I am officially part of the Discover family. 

 

When the card comes I plan on trying to call them for a CLI.  I will need to do a little research on the forum to see if this is even possible. 

 

Thank you all for your help!

Congratulations, and welcome to the Discover family! Just goes to show that approvals are a YMMV sort of thing. Enjoy your new card, and take good care of it.
