Applied today. Instant approval for the Chevron/Texaco Visa Card. $2,500 CL. My biggest credit limit so far!

Chevron gasoline is the best you can buy. It is used by the big 3 US automakers to test their vehicles for long term EPA and mpg testing. Consider that there are no Chevron stations anywhere near Michigan, and that the gasoline is shipped to the big 3 all the way from Pascagoula, Mississippi. What makes Chevron gasoline better is the detergent, Techron. It will keep your engine cleaner than any other brand, and that means you get the best mileage possible.

The credit card is ok, actually run by GE.

I was recently approved for a $400 credit limit . My credit scores are in the mid 600's. I too have few GEMB cards. This company is great for people who are re- building their credit.

I applied for the chevron texaco Visa but instead got the gas card only. Feels like a bait and switch to me. Was very easy to get though!!!

Not a bait and switch. The application clearly states you will be approved for either card based on credit worthiness. When I first applied for their gas card I was approved for the regular gas card. One year later I called them to inquire about upgrading to their visa. The processed the app and approved me for a $1200 limit. They also told me I could keep the regular gas card and use that credit line as well. I carry and use both cards. One more than the other. They are very generous about giving credit limit increases.

Got approved with a 649 CK. The card has a high interest rate 26.99%, but most gas cards dont have good interest rates. Make sure you pay your balance off in full every month.

I applied for this card in april 2010.  I received a credit limit of $700 initially. In October 2010 I went into my account and they offerred to increase my limit to $950!  I do have many other cards that are issued under GEMB. This might be why they always give me decent increases on all cards across the board.  I got it for the convenience and the gas fuel credits for 1 year. It deducts the credits off the bill each month from the balance. I believe its 10cents off per gallon. In my overall opinion its a great gas card! I just try to keep the balance no more than $200 on it at a time. The interest rate is 26.99% no annual fee.

Well, a little-known secret with GEMB is that they routinely increase credit limits every 4 months.  Most of their websites have the Credit Limit Increase link, but if not, a quick call to their number will more likely produce an instant increase every 4th month.

 I surely understand that, I recently bought a 745Li and it drinks lots of gas!  like $100 a week.  I will see if I can get a card.

Bad billing practices.

I recently received a Chevron/Texaco card.  I buy about $800 worth of gasoline a month.  I used the card a few times and was suprised to find a payement was due within a few weeks of getting the card. I had not received a statement, I discovered this by logging on to my account online. I made the payment on the due date as a push from my bank account.  Chevron dinged me with a $25.00 late fee.  I had not even had the card a month and had a payment due and was charged a late fee.  They explained they have no grace period, if your payment is not recieved before the due date you are assessed a late fee.  Seems like a shady way of doing business.  I cancelled my account.
