Walmart MC max CL

I tried to get my Walmart MC to have a higher CL and I was sent a letter saying that $12.000 is the highest CL Walmart MC can have. Just a plan MC no World or anything else.

Re: Walmart MC max CL

Well, it is a Wal-mart branded card. Im not sure how much you can expect from them as they dont carry anything nearly that expensive. 

 

And their customer base isnt exactly what I would call "Credit worthy"..... lol

 

12K is a plenty good limit unless all your other cards are at 20K or something. 

 

807 TU FICO Score 8.

I think the fact of Wal-mart not selling anything valued above $12,000 is irrelvant, even if it were true. http://www.walmart.com/search/search-ng.do?cat_id=0&grid=false&sort=price_high

 

Seems like an unfortunate policy though Smiley Sad

It all depends on your overall profile (internal hisotry and CRA-wise) as well as income, etc.  There are individuals who have upward of $20K~ (or more) on Walmart MC.  Mine used to be $15K but I lowered the CL to $12K to avoid any possible SYNCB overexposure issues.

 

Also, SYNCB does not issue any WMC or WEMCs-branded CCs.  Visa Signature is only available with their EBates CC.  AMEX and Discover are no longer part of the networks offered for any remaining dual cards.

It is a Master Card...can be used ANYWHERE, not just Wal-Mart. So a $12,000 cl is not unreasonable.

 

You probably can't paint all WM shoppers with the same broad brush. There are those who shop at Neiman Marcus who aren't "creditworthy".
