So far I would reccommend them.

It's not hard to add a screen capture.  I am sure you can sort it out.

A couple questions:

How long do you think you will keep this "tradeline" as you called it in the OP?

How much have you spent with them?

---

1. I will keep this revolving account for as long as it makes sense, so far it bumped my score 15pts

2. Spent $69 to sign up but i see right now they are offering an introductory free lifetime membership + spent $50 on a product.

Hi and welcome to MyFICO

Anytime you’re required to make a purchase to open a CC and/or to build credit is nonsense. 

$10K CL for only products purchased from them — nonsense

Products are way more expensive than, let’s say, Amazon

These type of cards actually encourages getting into debt because they want you to use the card, which means you’re buying stuff you really dont need. 

Just the phrase “bad credit history approved” shows it’s not a good card to have. 

So I agree with SouthJamaica’s comment.

Because it's a rip off on so many levels.

I totally understand the need for TLs, especially when there are not that many options, but you're being forced to buy things you dont need. You're wasting your money, and unless you continue to buy useless trinkets, they will stop reporting. 

This is as close to blackmail as you're going to get. 

You might think this is a good deal because of $10k, but it's really not. The money you already paid them would have been better suited for deposit on secured card(s) with decent lenders. 

You did not provide much information about your profile, so it's hard to gauge what your options are, but they cannot be worse than this. 

If you are rebuilding, go to https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Rebuilding-Your-Credit/bd-p/rebuildingcredit

You will get some great idea on how to start your credit recovery without having to resort to fake TLs like this. 

I know you thought this was a good deal, and it might be a little disheartening to hear the opposite, but you can get help here and build a better future for yourself without having to resort to shady lending such as this. 

If some of the responses sounds a bit harsh, it's nothing personal against you, it's really against "lenders" like this that our members get to be pretty vocal about and rightfully so.

I do sincerely hope you take into consideration things you've read here so far, and reevaluate your approach to building credit. Let us know if you have any other questions   

Good luck with whatever you chose to do

2. Even american express has a yearly membership fee on some of their cards

3. MyJewelrsclub is x3x4 times the same price on amazon yet it is highly popular

4. my score jumped 15pts since it was reported

Because this is an exploitive kind of outfit which takes advantage of vulnerable people.  Next time, we can guide you toward more reputable types of lenders.
