Target REDcard denied, however...

In my denial letter they offered my equifax score. Would this be a fako or FICO. Im leaning more towards FICO. Anyone else know?


Starting Score: 500's
Current Score: EQ: 664 TU: 673 EX: 700
Goal Score: 720

Re: Target REDcard denied, however...

its fine. i should have been more patient. also denied a capital one journey card. However, im starting to think they looked/used my inquiry from Helzberg diamonds (capital one) from January. I just got my Wells Fargo secured card with a 1k limit this month, and my Kay Jewelers Card in January. I also have one hospital collection to remove from experian and transunion through the HIPPA process. I give it six to eight months of gardening and going through the process of removing that one medical collection, which is the only bad mark on my credit reports. Then, i will try again.

Just apply for the Target Debit card. You get the same 5% cash back. I also have the Target debit card. Good luck on your journey to establish credit!
