Discover Card Existing Card Holders 0% APR for Next 12 months! as Always YMMV!

Worth a shot to log in to your Discover card account and "chat" a rep. Four months ago, I came off a 12 month 0% APR on purchases and just got it again by asking. Of course TWO months ago I asked if there were any special APR rates and was told "no." Last chat was this:
Me: "Good morning, I was wondering if there were any special offers available on my card"
Rep: "Was there anything in particular you were looking for?"
Me: "Special APR for purchases or anything interesting?"
Rep: "I show you are eligible for 0% APR for the next 12 months, would you like me to apply that to your account?"
Me: Sure, thanks!

Used the message/chat feature in the Discover app. I was initially offered 0.9% for 9 months so I asked if there was a way to get the 0% for 12 months that everyone else is talking about. They came back in a few minutes and offered it to me. Signed up and I'm good to go now. Always nice to have something like this around in case a big purchase comes up. Maybe I can put a down payment on a lease return and make some money via Turo. Shrug.

Quote from WandaVision :
I don't think you are lying, I am just saying there are apparently other factors at work if your score dropped "quite a bit"...

Isn't utilization ~30 or 35% of your score? I could see maxing out any card could hurt your score.

Got it! Thanks! Son and daughter in law are about to settle on their first home and need some stuff. This plus 5% cash back at Amazon, Target and Walmart in October plus black Friday sales should help!

I was also offered 0% for 12 months. This is only on new purchases not an existing balance. They also offered a rate reduction instead. But for me that was only 2% difference and obviously 0% is a better deal.
