    I wish I could say that I had a successful phone call with them but to be honest it was painful....... The Red Card help line were polite but didn't seem to know what to say to me. When I spoke to the new accounts team the lady was very nice but basically just said - no social security number, no account!!

    Email address that I originally emailed was: guest.service@target.com

    Oh well, that doesn't sound too promising!

    I thought you had bought a condo? You need to have an ITIN number? Tax withholding is 30%!!!

    Thanks for the tip about buying most things on the first visit. It will be interesting to see if I get the same treatment

    My US bank card has a US address but I dont have a tax ID!

    Don't be afraid to ask for the 5% if they decline your card and don't automatically offer it. If you don't ask, you won't get it, but if you do ask, you just may. Ask before you put anything in your cart, though, as that might affect their decision.

    If you are not renting you do not need an ITIN number.

    Thank goodness we were able to get a SSN (non working) and not an ITIN number. We were not renting when we got it 20 years ago before they stopped issuing SSN's but it has been a godsend over the years.

    It certainly is Sandra, you can get credit cards and great offers when you need furniture. Being Scottish we like the idea of things like 12 months interest free.

    Just wanted to share with you that I am feeling pretty pleased with myself today.
    At last I have managed to get myself a Red Card!
    The lady I dealt with at the Target on the 192 was great. She used my property tax id in place of a social security number and it went through first time. Amazing what you can get done if you just deal with the right person ��

    Well done.

    We have both an SSN (issued about 9 years ago) and an ITIN so will give it a go in January. Over the years we have spent a lot in the Target at Possner Park so any discount would be good. Last time we went in October the lady there said all we needed was a cheque to show we had a US bank account but we will go armed with the numbers as well.

    The card I would really like is the one that gives you 10% off Disney shops - anyone managed to get one of these ?
