Hey guys,
I got the Best Buy Credit Card (store version) in May of 2014 with a $2000 CL. Is it possible to get this upgraded to the MC version? If so, how do I do that? How long should I wait? Is it a HP?
Thanks!

I have not heard to much about this because before Citi took it over the MC was considered the counter offer to not approved store cards and then Citi took it over and seemed to switch it to the MC being the premier card... so because of this I have only heard about some getting offers online to upgrade to MC not requesting.
I don't know that I would trust calling in so I would probably try first sending a secure message online saying you were interested in converting your store card over to the mastercard and see what they say... if they do need hp or things like that they have always been good with me at least writing back telling me they can prcoess request but they need permission to do hp, etc.
Seems like CITI has four BB cards. A "good" MC version and a "good" store version, both AF free. There's also the "not to good" MC and store card with $59 annual fee's. I asked about an "upgrade" to the MC and the CSR said it would be a "downgrade". Not sure what that means exactly. I like the store card because I only use it at BB anyway.
Does anyone have a phone number?

Check the Backdoor numbers thread it should be there
they have been upgrading some of their store card holders to the platinum MC the last couple months. there is no way to opt in to that unless specifically selected by their algorithms though.

Random and totally off topic but saw your sig... I'm also a Navy Fed customer lol. nRewards worth dumping for Signature ?
I have been an authorized user for years on a BB card. I was wondering about applying for my own. I don't know if I should with my scores. I would love to apply for that and the Discover IT, even though I am older I am in school and I heard they have a great card for students.

I don't really see what the point of signature is, with navy especially since they don't let you charge over CL or anyhting... isn't it more in travel insurance and stuff on the backend that you hope to not need?
