Pros: online bill pay Cons: highway robbery if balance in full is not paid
What you will read below was my previous, impressed, opinion of Discover card. Unfortunately I have just seen the ugly, ugly side to the company. I have 2 accounts with them, a platinum and a regular. In September, they apparently changed their terms of...

Pros: Supportive and Sincere to customer's questions and conerns Cons: Not dependent when you need it the most.
Hi. I would like to share a recent experience about Discover Card. I consider myself a responsible Card-member. I always pay my payment in full every month and even check online to make sure my transactions has gone through. I never charged more than...

Pros: good customer service reps Cons: deceptive benefits, high APR, non-rewarding cash back program
This is one of the most troubling credit cards I have ever owned. For several months I was mailed offers to Discover Platinum card - usually every other week. After comparing the features/financial information of this card to four others I chose...

Pros: ok card for a student, or for people who don't carry balances Cons: customer service, errors, inequity
Discover was the first credit card for which I applied. Like a lot of students, I first got the Discover Card in college. I have mostly been happy with this card in the years that I've carried it. But recently I changed from a regular Discover to a...

Pros: It's a credit card Cons: It's a credit card
Well, I'll admit before all you frugal people that I am NOT one of those people who pays her balance in full each month.
My balance ran up near its limit in 1998, due to a series of financial crises, and my card has hovered near its limit...

Pros: No annual fee, taken more places, 1% cash back Cons: Cap on the amount you can get back per year
My husband and I have been using the Discover card since 1987, back when you could hardly find any place that took it. Fortunately now, though, Discover is becoming much more widely used and most places do take it.
We love its 1% cash back feature,...

Pros: No yearly fee, cash-back bonus! Cons: Not as widely accepted as MC and Visa
If I told you that I love my Discover card, it would not be an exaggeration. It is the card I use 95% of the time, and I only have a Visa because there are still some stores that don't accept the Discover card.
First, let me say that I do...

Pros: Cash Back Award Cons: Not Accepted Everywhere (Yet)
I have used the Discover card for many years now. I have nothing but good to say about the card as well as their customer service. Any time I have had a question their customer service has been excellent. Very friendly people, patient and helpful. The...

Pros: Easy payments and e-mail reminders Cons: not taken everywhere.
Discover is a very good credit card if your one of those types of people who just pay credit card debts off fast, because the interest rate does change and that can get annoying and expensive at times. As far as the things you can do with a discover...

Pros: Ease of Access Online, Great Special Offers Online, Pays You Back, No Annual Fee, Accepted At Costco Cons: Less Widely Accepted
The first credit card really designed for the Net Savvy. Not only do you have the option of receiving emails on your account status (Bill Sent, Payment Rec'vd, 5 Days before due, and Approaching Limit) it has tons of online extra discounts. For...

Pros: Good for people without established credit Cons: Not accepted everywhere
Discover is not the best credit card out there. There billing schedule is difficult to keep up with (you have to pay every 20 days instead of every month to stay ahead of late charges due to weekends/holidays screwing up there cycles), they "cash...

Pros: None!! BANK OF AMERICA has a better card WITH CASH REBATES Cons: They may ruin your credit because of THEIR ERRORS!!! EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to deal with!!!
When I applied for a Discover Card in 1991, I was told by their Manager of Credit I had one of the best credit scores in the country. He said "You are in the top 1%." I was granted the highest credit limit Discover offered.
My card...

Pros: Will work to keep you. Cons: Not accepted everywhere, and not the lowest interest rates around.
I'm going to leave my original review intact at the bottom, and give a bit of an update. True, it's several years later, but my recent dealings with Discover card have been better. First, I had called their Customer Service team (at 1-800-DISCOVER), ...
