Seems Synchrony is switching Sam's club cards to Mastercards. Yeah, I know about the Wal-Mart move away from Synchrony, but what I found extra interesting is the card they show in the mailer isn't branded. Per the mailer all will be switched by 11/18. 

 

There's a disclaimer that if you don't meet underwriting standards you won't get one, which may mean a SP/HP when your account is switched.  Be interesting to see how this shakes out. 


No letter here yet. I think there is zero chance anybody who does get switched will see a HP. A new HP would require express consent and failing to opt-out of an upgrade would not constitute express consent not to mention the fact that Synchrony would see all the info it needs with a SP.

OP,

 

I didn't get a mailer but as a relatively new cardholder of the Sams Store card, I just called customer service and you are correct. Sams is switching all personal and business 'store cards' to a Mastercard; however, the agent mentioned that customers will have the ability to 'opt' out if they choose. The notification via mail will be sent Sept 28 and if you opt in for the Mastercard those cards will be mailed in October.

 

Thanks for the heads up.
