Sportsman's Guide Visa and Target

Passing on a report from MyFICO and from personal experience.

 

It looks like if you used your Sportsman's Guide Visa at Target recently, Comenity is automatically closing and reissuing cards. So...if you try to buy something today you will get a decline.

 

The online system shows the last 4 digits of the new number and Available Credit/Cash at $0.

 

Hopefully the new cards were shipped already...if not you'll get them soon enough.

So you actually use that card? Do you use the points towards ammo or sporting stuff? I have never used the card because it does not give me that much in rewards it seems like your Discover or 123 card would pay you better for usage. Maybe I will look over the rewards again but the second I got that card it went into the kitchen drawer.

I think they're offering 2x rewards points on doe pee, if you buy before Christmas.

 

You, too, could then smell like a doe in heat for up to two years!!

I was using it regularly before I got the IT and BankAmericard...I actually used it at Target around Black Friday which was why my particular account was closed.

 

I did use my bonus points (you got 1000 points when opening which equated to a $10 off certificate) towards a pair of boots I liked there. I mainly used it because the limit was higher than all the other major bankcards I had at the time.

 

It's paid and is in the SD for now...new card will join the old one when it comes. lol.
