Cards Owned by CITI

I am sure many of you already know but just in case I realized these cards are all run through citibank.

Macy's Sear's The Home Depot Bloomingdales and one I didn't realize was Zales.

I applied for Macy and Home Depot and Zales and was approved for all of them by pulling my EX report.

Macy's is run by Citi? My inquiries say VISA/DSNB. That's not Citi. is it? Department Store National Bank.

They are actually a joint venture between Citi and DSNB. If I'm not mistaken though, Citi controls more of the Visa aspect of the Macy's card, while DSNB (Federated) controls the store card side.

It is generally easier to get a co-branded card (has a store name + Visa/ MC/ etc) than the straight bank card. I'm dragging around several co-branded cards at the moment. After a year of experiencing their customer service, etc., I'll trade them in for one real thing.

Unfortunately, you often can't do a product change from a co-branded card to straight Visa/ MC/ whatever, although sometimes you can.

GEMB - Chevron, J.C. Penny; QVC; Paypal MC; Mervyns; Sam's/Walmart; Dillards; Discount Tire; Care Credit; Gap; Old Navy; Banana Republic; Pay Pal; e-bay M.C.

Chase - Wawa; Hess; BP; Shoprite; Kohl's; Borders Visa
Barclay's/Juniper - Barnes & Noble M.C.

Anyone else care to list their cards? [If you have a co-branded card, please designate c/b to save typing.]

Yep, they are a grocery store, and yep, they have a CC.

The Kroger 3-2-1 card issued by Royal Bank of Scotland (of all banks).

Hi Cheddar. Is that a true store card, or a co-branded M.C.?

That is a cobranded major card. I'm sorry, I didn't realize we were referring strictly to store cards here.

Actually, I wasn't considering ONLY store cards. I didn't know if Kroger had a store card only.

Can I safely assume it's a MasterCard, usable anywhere M.C. is accepted?

Yep, that's right. It is a MasterCard. I was also wrong about the name of the card. It's actually Kroger 1-2-3 Rewards MasterCard.
