Received a Walmart card upgrade letter, But have to wait until April to get the card GRRRRRRR

I just got a CLI on my card and today I received a upgrade letter saying my  Walmart store card will be a Walmart  Mastercard but I have to wait until April for the card to arrive. GRRRRRRRRRR LOL.

Why does it take a couple of months for them to upgrade? Does anybody know or did they get the card sooner before the date on the letter?

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats on the upgrade Joe! Maybe you'll get a nice surprise and the card will come sooner than they say? How long did you have the store card before getting the upgrade?

My TU score is 767 maybe that's why I got the upgrade?

Congrats on the upgrade. I believe it will report as a new account just so your aware if you were not.

                Thank you

Yes I knew that. I rather have a mastercard instead of a store card

Way to go Joe. So only 5 years to upgrade lol, they sure do work mysteriously in WallyWorld haha Perhaps they want to give it to you in April as it is your 5th year Wallyversary. At least you have a couple years between cards so i dont think it would hurt your aaol anyway. At least your card will be nicer looking now.....and its a mc too lol Enjoy the upgrade

I got the upgrade letter today. Same date of April 2017. Hit the LUV button and got the limit increased from 5 to 7K. 

Joe, did you get a 23.15% APR or lesser? this is the only sore point I see..

Grats on the CLI and Upgrade  I also have store card on year 6 now I hope they dont send me upgrade I will cancel it if they do and only because they consider it a new account and I need to get to 5/24 to get the Chase CSP.....
