Gap Store Card

Anonymous — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 18:42:11 GMT

Hey all,

I apped online and was approved for the Gap Store Card last week. I got approval for $150. Anyone know if GEMB will give an increase upon opening the account? I was hoping for a CL between $400-600. The only reason I didn't apply in store is because I'm a big chicken.

Thanks!

Im a big chicken too! Just applied for Kohls online and was approved for $400 and thinking if I applied in store I might have gotten a bigger CL. Try the backdoor #! Good Luck!

GE Store cards are known to be crap for CLI and you can request every 6 months.

Thanks, jdsays. I'm glad to know I'm not the only chicken. Maybe I will check out the backdoor number!

I dont mind at all!

I have a few lates that are over 3 years old, one unpaid collection on my EQ, and two unpaid collections on TU (both over 3 years old). Trying for a PFD on both. Also-- one CO that just fell off of my reports this week!! YAY!
