Re: Comenity Closing Spree!

B, I forgot for a second your strategy with comenity and tracking but now I remember it all! Right after your sct spree and for me obtaining 7 major credit comenity cards, all this talk of AA with happened. Sad they messed with us! But also good to trim on those cards. Though approval were fun though! Haha Smiley Happy

CLOSED SOME COMENITY CARDS

Call me crazy but I have decided to close some Comenity store cards.  I hardly ever use them and forcing myself to use them tells me I do not need the cards.  Eventhough they are randomly closing cards without notice.

 

I have closed the following:

 

Carsons

Victoria Secret

Eddie Bauer

Good for you with the way Comenity is going.  But a genuine question for you.  If you weren't going to never use them to begin with, why apply for them?


I think  that question could be put to many of us here. That's what happens during a 'spreeeee!'  Lots of people have a strategic plan when apping and lots do not. We always 'think' we'll use the card. I also plan on some credit card downsizing in 2016.

Re: Comenity Closing Spree!

I closed my Overstock card on the way home from work last night.  I called their customer service line and didn't even have to talk to anyone, which surprised me.  I maybe used it two or three times in a year.  Getting a CLI at first was easy and automatic.  Toward the end it was like pulling teeth, which could be related to the infrequency that I used it lol.

 

Oh well,

Oz

I had originally planned to track these accounts for CLI schedules and report to the Community but since that was how Comenity operated for so long. Since things have changed, that original plan is shelved. 



I only have 3 of their Visa cards and the business BJ's World mastercard,I was going to try for the fuel network rewards mastercard,But Im think I will hold off now after reading all the Comenity stuff

I think several people are holding off.  I have about 6 accounts with them (some from eons ago) and only a few are over a year old.  Suddenly my appetite for the Orbitz Visa isn't so tantalizing.  I guess we'll see how all this pans out Smiley Very Happy
