I noticed that Chase reports your highest ever balance while Discover only reports your highest statement balance. Is this normal? Any benefits or drawbacks to either? Any other info that varies in reporting like this?
It's normal. My USAA Sig Visa reports highest ever balance - statement balance is always $0. It doesn't affect scoring -- but shows any lender doing a manual review that you use your credit and are able to payoff a high balance.
