Re: MAX CL Checking for SYNC Amazon Store Card! Thanks in advance

No probs TJ! You'll find various Sync cards have barying high levels. One that i see often here on the board is for Lowes where i see many can get up towards 35,000 , more on occasion, so that would be one that would eat up alot of exposure if your profile and income support it. I dont have a Lowes where i live so never apped for it. Home Depot is nice but they are citi so most clis eill be hps. Just recently i saw a poster who got 25,000 on his/ her Walmart ! Imagine thatSmiley Happy only 19,000 to go.......Smiley Happy

I have noticed with my SYNC cards that they seem to be the most "Giving" Easiest CLI's I have ever experienced. Could be because of the amount of sync cards i have as well?

TjHunt the amount of cards you have with them isn't what warrants CLIs.

And the Amazon prime card isn't a card I think people should waste time getting a huge limit on. That available credit is better used elsewhere IMO.

I respect your opinion however that is what it is. I use amazon for everything probably more than the average american. The 12 months no interest and or 5% cash back is more than enough reason to want and keep the card.

If it is better used somewhere else, What are some Big SYNC Cards? as far as i know, most of their cards are store cards?

@Morgacj2004 . If you are more comfortable talking call them, texting chat them. I have got CLI's both ways since opening the card. Both seem the same. That being said, i asked for 9 and got countered with 5. With them mentioning the reason for not getting 9 was new accounts. One step at a time aim high if you feel you are worth it!

This card is on the back burner because although i do buy everything possible from Amazon, normal months i don't hit the Sallie Mae cap, and when i do, it's by several thousand so the prime card would need to have a pretty big limit to accommodate that.

I finally figured out quotes! Lmao! I agree, I spend an average of 2000 to 4000 a mo on amazon. I have even used their grocery delivery service! Man in this day and age we sure are spoiled!

My limit is $7.5k.  I consider that more than enough so I don't ask for any cli's.  With all the known issues and accounts being closed by Synchrony, be careful right now.  If you don't have a purchase requiring an increase, look elsewhere to pad tradelines.

One of the more popular Synchrony cards on here is the Sam's Club MasterCard - it has 5% rewards on gas, and 3% on travel (hotels, airfare, etc.) and restaurants.  It's actually become my most 'active' card, with my BCP being a close second (for groceries). 

 

I think they also do promotional financing from time to time, but so far I've never used it for that... perhaps oddly I've actually only made a single Sam's Club purchase with the Sam's Club MasterCard, and that was to earn the $20 statement credit when I first got the card. 

 

Since it only gives 1% cash back when used at Sam's Club, I tend to use either a Quicksilver or Blispay for my purchases there.  Smiley Wink
