My wife who is German went to a target store at the end of July. She was sollicited to open a Redcard account, thinking it was like a preferred or rewards card like at the supermarkets. She also thought she got a 10% discount and that the amount was charged to the bank card. This was in Phoenix AZ and we moved to Idaho at the beginning of September, and we had our mail forwarded for 6 months. We never received anything from Target, not even one letter or phone call until the end of March when they told us we owed them over 300 dollars. I paid the money, because these people are such scam artists, adding ridiculous amounts of money to the original 70 dollars every few weeks.
When you go to the Target Website you will find nothing about Customer Service. They are scammers. If we were not contacted it is because this unethical corporate giant waits months to contact you so that they can accumulate unheard of late fees and interest. They called us for the first time at the end of March. The lady from Jamaica that called me said that in fact they had only sent one letter (in September) and that this letter just returned to them on April 1. Absolutely amazing, I have never been late on a payment in my life and I felt like such a fool being ripped off by con artists. I explained that my wife was German, that we had never received anything from them... They just kind of laughed and basically said... Too bad for you... Its not our problem and we don't care if you ever shop Target again. This company probably makes more money from their credit card scams than from their retail store. They have not desire to help customers and if you do a search on their website for customer service or for customer relations you come up with a blank, because the words cannot be found by their own search tool on their website.
Please never never open any type of account with this unethical company. I can't imagine how many people they have ripped off. What kind of company only sends one letter and then never calls until your orignal purchase has increased with fees by 500%? Please shop anywhere but target. I think I will now cancel my Sears card as well, since these companies are now linked. I used to think of Sears as an ethical company, but if they are associated with this group of theives, Iwonder.
