Target Upgrade??

I know a bunch of us all got cards several months before Christmas and about half of us got the increase to $500 at 3 month mark, I know 6 month mark just passed maybe a month or two ago, did anyone get CLI to $1000 and Visa Upgrade??

 

I have not yet, and can't figure out there logic in increases and upgrades at all!

so now I have 2 Target Store cards, which the lady at the store said is VERY Common... Do I go and apply for a 3rd!?

If they won't go up....go wide Smiley Happy   Next Christmas Addict will be putting $500 on this card, and $500 on the other card....oh wait, put the last $500 on this card.  Just joking Smiley Happy

 

My wife has had a Target card for a couple years now....it has been $1k since about 6 months after she got it....nothing ever changed since.

But why? Why, why? Why not go for quality over quantity?

I'm hard headed. I want a F'ing Target Visa and if I have to get 3 cards to get one, that's what I feel I must do! LOL

I've had my card since Feb. 08. Still at $200 with no increase in site. Besides the fact that it has and is helping in rebuilding my credit, it is pretty worthless to me. I don't use the card much with its low limit and always pay PIF.

Guys, how soon does the card reports after the statement closes?

Re: Target Upgrade??

And it took me 6 years and 5 months to go from 200 on a Red card to 7k on a Target Visa.

 

It can happen!

 

(I know, I know, I'm the weirdo here, but it really CAN happen!)

I got my card 2 years ago, it started at 200 and it is still at 200. Every time I call they say they are not giving increases at this time. My bal is 0, but the last time I talked to a csr he informed me that if I don't use the card Target will close it.

Re: Target Upgrade??

I just called Target backdoor number tonight as I've had the Store card since 12/2007.  It was $200 and still is $200.  They are giving no credit line increases at all and she said soon maybe they will start converting some of the cards to Visa again but they haven't been converting them either since last Fall.  She said there was nothing she could do for me on her end.  I use this card a fair amount and always pay more the minimum.  I was bummed but hopefully they will just convert me to a Visa instead of a CLI.
