Review: Because of Nordstrom's impeccable service, online flat shipping rate, and wonderful selection, I do about 95% of my shopping in their stores. And for this they choose to reward me even further with bonus points, gift certificates, services, and frequent flyer miles. Unbelievable! There is no reason in the world to carry any other card. I will be loyal to Nordstrom's for life.

Review: If you could only have one card this is the one to get. I have been a cardmember for over 20 years and they are very liberal with payment due dates. I was surprised to read the review by Chris because many times I have forgotten to mail the payment till the day it was due and never received a late charge or interest. Matter of fact I once called two days after the due date to let them know I had forgotten and they told me they would reverse any charges! I make over $600 dollars a year in rebates since I use it instead of my companys AMEX since they don't care.

Best Feature: Good old fashioned customer service. Great cash back offers.
Worst Feature: none

Review: I have had my Target Card for 3 years now and have not had any problems with it. I have read many reviews that slam Target and their customer service, but I have had an overall positive experience. Please don't blame Target for your credit history. New accounts, late payments, and requests for credit increase your overall risk and justify Target to take action to protect itself. Please read your card holder agreement. Also, when they raise your APR you always have the option to close your account and keep your old rate. Please read the information sent to you before blaming the big bad company! This card works best for me because I use the 10% off and I pay it off every month.

Best Feature: Helpful customer service
Worst Feature: Low Credit Line / High rates

Review: I had this card for many years and used it responsibly, but when I got into a dispute with a merchant that did a bad job on my car, the dispute resolution was terrible. First, they credited the money back to my account. I sent them loads of pictures and paperwork, but they didn't look at the whole situation and on a technicality made me responsible for the bill. I called them to appeal, but they wouldn't call me back. It took them nine months to put the amount back on my account. On which I was in shock, because I had thought it was behind me. They gave me a fifty dollar credit because it took them so long, but that was only because of a law. They can do that to your account just like that! I strongly recommend that you don't get this card.

Best Feature: Cash Back

Review: I opened the card with MBNA in 2001 with a fixed rate of 5.9% and never missed a payment. My credit score is above 700 and when I purchased my 2nd home in the last year we put some home repairs on the card. Putting the repairs on the card brought the card to about 95% of the available balance that we plained on paying over the next 6-8 months. We just received a letter from Bank of America that our rate was going up to 12%! It stated it was due to my credit but when I repulled my credit my score was 720! It is just a scam to raise people's interest rate when you use the the available credit. I will never open anything with Bank of America again!

Review: I had the Blue card for about 8 years and it was great for almost 5 of those years. I never had a late payment to them and my credit score is 824, but they still increased my rate from 9.99% to 27% due to a review of my husband's credit history. All of my cards have always been paid on time and the card is an individual account - my husband is not on it. That was not right. It is my longest held card and I keep it but do not use it due to the APR.

Review: Easy to redeem 1% to 3% cash back on purchases. "Wave" and pay feature built in but not available everywhere. The interest rate is way higher than any other card I carry. Be sure to not carry a balance if you get a similiar high interest rate. I use the card in place of using a debit card. I use it for gas purchases when I max out my 5% returns on my two other gas cards.

Best Feature: 3% Cash back on gas and fast food

Review: Even though I paid on time and over the minimum every month they treated me terribly. I took a cash advance one month and they immediatly lowered my credit line by $2,000. This advance was at a casino so I was then lectured on the bad habits of gaming. Adults should be treated as adults and allowed to use their credit for however they choose providing they pay in a responsible manner. If you need a strict father figure in your life choose this card!

Best Feature: none
