No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I should never have opened it in February. Limit $400 and I would never have used it. Was going to leave it open to report but after reading some threads here of peoples accounts being hacked, I decided to close it. I don't want that kind of headache. Their stuff is way overpriced anyway. I have 23 other cards so this is going to be a blip on the radar hopefully.

lol. Agreed. I am thinking of doing the same for Newegg ($800) and Discount Tire ($500). I can't get a CLI on either of them for some reason and I have better cards I can use at both places if the need should arise. They are also only a few months old but I will never use them. I am going to see how this closure effects my CS first since I have never closed an account before. Well, I closed First Premier years ago but never looked at my CR to see how it reacted.

Yep. The guy was at a loss for words when he got my response for his question "May I ask, why are you closing the account?" I said "Because I can, I have better cards, and your prices suck, no offense. $800 for an Xbox One? I'll never shop there anyway." He was like, uhm.. well ok!
I wasn't mean about it, just honest. Can't be mad at them since I am the dope who app'd it in the first place. Glad I never bought anything from them.
LOL (Because I can) thats a good one have to remember that
I've never applied with them but occasionally get their catalog in the mail with the big Pre-Approved writing all over the front cover. I shred the front and back page (depending on where they plaster the pre-approval code) and recycle the rest.
They've been around for decades.
I had an account a long time ago. Left it open for AAoA as I didn't need them for credit anymore. Needless to say, as previously mentioned, my account was hacked - Discovered due to monitoring my credit report.
You made a good choice.
