Kay Jewelers and Jared No Longer Separate?

‎08-23-2012 02:08 PM

Looking through all the tid bits here and there to help rebuild credit. And reading numerous threads about which creditors are more likely to extend you credit in this process. I recently applied for a Kay Credit Care, and was approved for $2500. Now I read numerous threads from many years ago that said, whatever you got approved at Kay, you'll get approved at Jared for the same amount, to help with your utilization. Now, recently I read one or two threads, that said this is no longer the case, once you get approved at one, and go the other, they are just going to split your limit between the two of them.

Does anyone have any 'recent' experience with thise two?

Thanks in Advance
