I'm not sure if this is related or not, but I had an Ann Taylor store credit card that I opened up when I was first out of college, maybe 5 years ago, for 15% off my "interview" suit. I purchased the suit and then immediately turned around and paid the balance off in full. I think I was approved at maybe an $1800 limit. I don't think I have ever used the card since. Well, a few months ago I get my upgraded card (that I did NOT request) in the mail which is an Ann Taylor Mastercard, which basically means I can use it anywhere and get style rewards points for it at Ann Taylor. Honestly, I think I'd rather have cashback, miles, about a billion other things. Anyways, my limit was also increased to $18,000!!! You read that right - on a credit card I did not request and had not used in at least five years. I was so livid that I immediately tried to call and cancel. It's all automated, go figure. Anyways, one of the options was if you are calling about your new Ann Taylor Mastercard...I'm sure many people felt the same way as me if they had to make an option about it.
