meya's review: 
I am so dedicated to this board and my honesty here is a must... It is going to hurt me to say this because I went back on my word... I slipped... Fell over the by the credit card machine... My ID fell out of my wallet and landed in the cashiers hand... While I was trying to pull my self up using the electronic pen... I accidentally hit the accept button... And... And... The cashier said I was approved for a $200 limit Target Red Card. Wow, now how in the world did that happen because I swore up and down that I would never apply at Target due to so many denials. Seriously folks, I tried to tell her it was a mistake... I never told her to submit my info into the computer... I tried to give the card back but she called the manager and they pushed me out of the store and threaten to call the police... I had to take the card or go to jail... What would you have done?... YOU GUYS HAVE TO BELIEVE ME!... I AM TELLING THE TRUTH! OKAY FORGET IT... YES I DID APPLY FOR THE TARGET CARD. LEAVE ME ALONE NESSA, I KNOW YOU ARE GOING TO BE THE FIRST TO CALL ME A HYPOCRITE... LOL.

It's okay. I luv target. I went to the store on saturday and used my debit card. I was hoping to get a preapproval receipt. but, I will try again. I have been reading a lot of stories on this message board called www.Creditboards.com good site.

Re: Meya on 2007-08-20
Meya, if I may ask, how many cards do you have??
Also does anyone have information on the Lord & Taylor CC?
Here is my two cents on the target card:
I love target, but a $200.00 Limit? Come on... It is recommended that you keep your balances below 35% your available credit, that means you can only really use about $70 on this card... Who can possibly only spend $70 at target??? I know I drop about $100-200 everytime I go! Just kidding... They should really start people off with better limits though.

Target Fam! on 2007-08-21
Thanks everyone, I did not realize that Target has such a big family... Lol. I guess now that I know what credit range Target is looking for, I can estimate Targets approvals based on our exerience to the next person. I can't wait to graduate from the $200 club... Lmao ps. I still love Walmart the best.

What a joke, my credit score should have given me this... What a bunch of BS the credit system is, just another jewish scam!

Simple thinking from a simple mind. This is a perfect example of why I think reviews/comments should be restricted to registered users. This is flat-out hateful.
