Fingerhut CLI

Anonymous — Sun, 18 Mar 2012 01:34:08 GMT

So today I get this letter in the mail from Fingerthut. It says I have qualified for a special "temporary" CLI of $300 (bringing my total to $1000)

I can make the CLI permanant by making $300 in purchases by 5/31/2012.

HA! overpay for $300 worth of merchandise just to get a perm CLI. I don't think so. The ONLY time I shop Fingerhut is when they do their 50% off clearance sales.

I got the card right after my BK because it has no AF and reports every month. It has served its purpose. Maybe it is time for it to go? They will report my new limit (it will look like I got a CLI) then they will report the old limit after I make no purchases (it will look like I got a CLD) Should I be concerned about that?

Sounds like one of those fee based platinum cards.
