Re: Target sucks

My recommendation is to call the back of the card speak with a Rep about a CLI. The best they can do is update your income and place you on a Cli monthly list. Just give it a few, what i did was called to say i wanted to cancel and that's when they approached me with the whole credit line increase option, so i took it. lets see my 30 days are almost here so ill let you guys know in a bit, but again in the mean time call in, its a sp btw.

Re: Target sucks

Omg 1998 and still $200 that makes me want to close it even sooner, I let it report a few times to see but guess that didn't matter I even max it out and paid it after . I did call them and updated them a few weeks ago hoping it would help but I guess they still being stingy with their money lol. I'm gonna SD it for a few more months till I'm out of the garden and apply for what I want and need.

Re: Target sucks

Yeah I rarely use it anymore. Went through all of the motions to request a CLI consideration numerous times, tried maxing it out and PIF. They absolutely do not want to bump me to $500 (or any larger amount). My next lowest is Nordstrom $1000.

Re: Target sucks

Oh, this topic is about the Target store card...

Re: Target sucks

join the club we'll get jackets,  "locked into target credit cards that never grow"  DW shops there every few months, used to be more but their customer service hasn't improved much and there pharmacy staff totally sucks. 

4 years for me,  $200 limit approved 15 days after my AMEX revolver that has grown from a $6k limit to $15k CL, and is long overdue for a CLI, just haven't felt the need other than to pad my UTL.

Re: Target sucks

Target sucks it's ridiculous how they haven't catch up to other lenders, what can u possibly do with $300 to say, u have to go home and run to pay it back its dumb and the interest it night too if they being to stingy cause of the 5% then don't give it at all and increase those toy limits, I like Walmart better I'm at $5k and only have it for 4 months now  the only bad thing I live in New York there's no Walmart close so I have to shop online which I hate but I'll trade target for Walmart any day. Will be closing it very soon. Ppl should just never apply unless they trying to rebuild or truly like target.

Re: Target sucks

You cannot possibly need this card for your utilization. Get rid of it. If you want the discount, use the Redcard Debit card, or find out of SM gives you 5% there.
