Re: Target RedCard Approval - myFICO® Forums

AZnotorious · ‎05-02-2021

I decided to app for the Target RedCard and was approved for $900 with $900 in temporary credit.

I'm more a Walmart guy myself but occasionally shop at Target so the 5% CB is nice to have if the situation arises. Also TD Bank has an address on my EX report that I can't get rid of. Never lived there, never got mail there, tried to dispute it twice with Experian and no luck. So I figured now that I have their credit card again they should be helpful in removing the incorrect information.

Some DPs: They pulled Transunion, score at time of approval 687, I burned them in BK7 in March 2018 for $500, 13 Inquiries on TU, 6 fall off in 2021.

I'm curious to see if I can grow it and at some point get the MC.

Grats on the Target Red approval

For intransigence on the address, if they fail to correct it then you can file a CFPB complaint on them.

I have that card for the second time. It was a higher limit than last time when it was only $300 but eh, it's SD for me at this point. I will still occasionally use it. Congrats!
