HSN no Upgrade to MC...

Recieved my new HSN Card in the mail today and called to ask about upgrading to MasterCard and was told I could apply and then I would have both a Mastercard and a regular card!

umm, no... why would I want to HSN cards... this isn't Macy's 2 for 1!!

 

He said that is the only way, no upgrades!

 

Does anyone know if they ever offer it via mail or something like GE sometimes?

I was told the same thing when I found out there was an HSN MC...why would you need two cards of that nature...

Has anyone had the Shopping Cart trick for the HSN Mastercard?   It pops up for me for the HSN Card,  just wondered if anyone had the HSN MC pop up.

Well, if there were an upgrade offer then you can use the MC anywhere, but the card only at HSN.  So there would be an advantage if it was possible to upgrade.

When I got the popup, it just said the HSN card too.  But I could have sworn that they first consider you for the MC and if not approved then they consider you for the HSN card.  Nonetheless I got the HSN card and the good thing about it is that it grew really fast for me with minimal usage.

I received the MC offer through the shopping cart trick.  This was back in December.  I already had an HSN acct that I used maybe once a year.  I logged in threw something random in just see if I would get the popup.  I was able to accept the offer and then not complete the order.
