Lost Discover card

sakhalin070 · ‎02-06-2014

My Discover card has been lost (not even my fault...-_-) and I called Discover and canceled it. They're shipping me another one that will arrive on Friday, but now I can't login to my account on the website. Is this standard protocol for replacing cards?

You shouldn't be locked out give them a call

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Should I wait until I get my new card?

I would call now to find out why it's locked just in case you have balances and need to make payments...If not you can wait until activation

+1...I would definitely call if only for peace-of-mind.

There's also a message saying my account will be accessible within 48 hours. The Discover FAQ also says to allow them 48 hours to process lost/stolen cards. So that's probably why.
