Pros: If you are a Target Shopper, that extra 10% off is WAY cool!
Cons: If you choose not to pay off your balance, you'll pay finance charges.
Summary: Preamble
I'm a shopper. I admit it. I love me bargains and Target is one of my favorite places to shop.
Last holiday season, I was in the Super Target (that's a combo regular Target with a grocery store added on). Can you...

Pros: 10% discount off your first purchase, opportunity for future discounts based on use.
Cons: Not customer-friendly. Feels like predatory lending practices.
Summary: Sure, they entice you with that initial 10% discount, but they will find a way to get it back from you in short order. Scenario: made a $500 purchase and was encouraged to apply for the card to get 10% off first purchase. First bill ...

Pros: Sorry but at this point I can't think of any.
Cons:
They need to have better rates, and rewards for those who pay on time.
Summary: Lets face it no matter how hard you work you won't pay it off with these finance charges unless you have a good job, and don't loose the one you have which I lost mine, and since times are tough I can't seem to find a new one. I had a real good interest ...

Pros: none!
Cons: not possible to speak with anyone on the phone. heavy handed with the fees.
Summary: I am a new Target Visa user and a few weeks ago they charged me a $29 late fee because I paid my bill ON the due date!! Now I find out that their policy states that you have to pay your bill 24 hours before the due date! How deceptive! Why don't ...

Pros: None
Cons: Absolutely none
Summary: I was ready to drop $1K at Target the other day on a Sony TV and an ipod. Seduced by the 10 percent discount, I did something never do: applied for a store card. I have only one major credit card right now (which I pay off every month) and no other ...

Pros: Can be used anywhere Visa is accepted, cash advances available
Cons: Exorbitant interest rates, terrible customer service
Summary: Three years ago, I was focused on repairing my credit and applied for the Target RedCard. While limits were low and interest rates were high, I didn't expect much considering my low credit score. It seemed a natural progression to stick with the same ...

Pros: -Pharmacy Rewards program (10 prescriptions = 10% off)
-Visa card, not only a store card
Cons: -Using it everywhere won't net a big savings unless you spend a lot at Target
Summary: Rewards Program The rewards program built into the Target Visa is actually two separate programs, both reward you in coupons good for 10% off a day of shopping at Target, but one is based on the amount you spend on the card whereas the other is ...

Pros: You get a 10% discount at Target.
Cons: It could ruin your credit record.
Summary: I love Target. It's a great store. Much cleaner than Walmart, and the checkout lines are much shorter. So, naturally earning target points for my purchases at Target and other stores seemed like a great idea. With the Target Visa, when you purchase ...

Pros: Loyalty program; Donations 1-0.5%; uses Smart Chip (However scheduled for phase out (May 2004-May 2005)
Cons: Low Limits; 1st statement appears immediately; Trip wire Fraud Detection system; Aggressive CSRs
Summary: Target's Annual Report proudly states that the Co-Branded VISA generates revenue through fees & interest. (What this means to you: read the fine print) It is important to remember, the audience for this VISA card is a Target Store shopper. This means ...

Pros: OK for 5% discount, ONLY if you're able to pay off your bill EVERY MONTH.
Cons: The WORST card experience I've ever had. I DO NOT recommend the Target card(s).
Summary: The Target card(s) is the WORST credit card experience I've EVER had (& I've had MANY). The customer service is RUDE, rigid, and treats you like a collection agency would, whether you're calling about a problem, or asking a

Pros: None
Cons: Horrible customer service
Summary: I've been a card holder for 8 years and paid off the card twice and the way they repay their good standing customers is by lowering credit limits. Target Visa has lowered my limit twice in the past year for no reason. No late payments,

Pros: None that I can think of, except the original discount for opening the account.
Cons: High fees for everything that they can get away with charging and terrible customer service.
Summary: I have great credit and have dealt with many a bank or visa company. While I have received mixed customer service throughout my credit history, I have never had such a terrible time as I have had with Target service reps. They seem poorly trained, at

Pros: Discount rewards for each dollar spent.
Cons: Deceptive practices with regard to payment due dates.
Summary: Target Card makes payments due on non-business days like Sunday. They also require that online payments be posted no later than 3pm on the due date. They will draw on your checking bank account right away and still charge you a $29 late fee. What a
