Sooo... Synchrony Wal-Mart Card Approved

Applied for a Synchrony Wal-Mart credit card a couple of weeks ago. Had to send them a notarized identity verification document. Well, I called today and it’s approved... with a SL of $150. I called Credit Solutions and they flat out denied any CLI. Not sure what I’ll do, maybe charge something little on Walmart.com every few months.

Yeah, maybe they don’t like my number of inquiries? Don’t remember burning Wal-Mart in the past, but maybe I did.

I'm pretty sure that is a temp limit. You will get your real limit when card arrives. Happened to me also a little while back...good luck!!

Case of beer would put you at 10%.  Just for the record, I want to tell everybody to stop applying for the WalMart card, just stop it.

 

If you can stomach the $45 annual fee to Sam's Club go get the Sam's Club MC.  They give much more generous limits and they don't CLD you. 

 

You can use it anywhere.  I got mine to $20k in two years.

Don't close it like everyone says. Just be patient. This is common for sync in case anyone around here hasnt noticed .Scores are irrelevant for their SL. They want to see some history first even if you hardly use the card its better than negative history or lates etc.  Guess what my SL was last year? $200. As well as many many others on here. And 3 months later? I bumped it up to 5k in one night doing CLI. Yesterday just for laughes I requested up to $6k. Now I have $6k. I havent even used it in months now that I have better cards but it will help with my UTI. But I may try for more later this week if I get bored idk. I know I left plenty on the table. Just be patient. And besides isn't sams CC backed by sync also?

Re: Sooo... Synchrony Wal-Mart Card Approved

Started off with my Walmart store card $200 limit may 2017. After reading the forums and learning about requesting cli over chat about 6 months later I asked for 6k and got it(was declined for $7500 after hitting the cli button while logged in). At that point I never made a single purchase on the card.

Currently I’m up to 10k and I do use the card for a few purchases every month. I’ve also requested and been denied a cli a few times also. Pretty much almost anything I goto search for and purchase online, Walmart always seems to show up as having the product for sale somehow. Almost bought a zip line kit from them today Lol
