Got my Discover IT Chrome Secured

[MyLoFICO]

I can certainly understand why everyone likes this card, other than the rewards that is, it is quite an attractive card and in a box no less. If they do this for the secured cards, I cannot imagine what they must do for you folks with really nice limits and scores. Anyway, got my new daily use card in the mail and now to use the hell out of it. Wishing I put more than $200 on it but I can fix that when they let me add more.

Congratulations! I have the IT card and I don't recall it coming in any special box? Maybe it did...Can't remember. I ordered the cute pink card with the monogram and I do love it, but my limit is so small ($500) I don't get a chance to pull it out often....Best of luck with yours!

Thanks. Right now I am waiting for them to send me a security code for online access. It's taking forever.

OP I started mine with $200 and that was before they added this new add money twist lol. I rode that $200 for 11 months until it graduated last January. It's now at $4k, as they gave me $500 extra a graduation and kept gifting! Enjoy your new card, I remember the excitement at having that lovely box as well.

I just got approved for this card and am sooooo excited! I'm still in shock over the approval. They just took the security deposit yesterday. How long did it take to get your card after that? I can't wait. It won't be official until I have that card in my hands

Congrats!

Mine came in a lovely welcome box as well - mine's an It card, not Chrome but still Secured.  I still have my blue box it came in in my 'important documents' box in my closet.

Absolutely love the card and use the crap out of it.  Mine hasn't graduated yet (it's almost 15 months old) but hoping it'll graduate soon.

Originally I planned to not add money to it but I have changed my mind since then. I think I am going to nurture this one rather than both of my QS1's. I will merge those and then I will have enough spending to justify using this one and PIF several times a month.

My funds were drafted on 2-16 and I have the card on the 25th so 9 days.

Funny, I save mine too for all my cards. Not sure why. lol. I will have to look up the difference in the Chrome IT and IT cards. I didn't know there was different ones. It looks cool so that can't be a good thing. I bet it goes like this: Chrome: Higher APR and low CLI's. That would be my kind of luck. The mag strip being chrome is really cool. So when this graduates, will it be considered a Prime card?

I received my IT card yesterday too. It came in a pretty red box. Very professional packaging. Hopefully their customer service and benefits are just as professional.
