patrick12's review: 
I was checking my balance today and noticed that Tribute raised my credit limit to $600.00! I started out with a $300.00 credit limit and they kept increasing my limit every six months like clock work! If you make all your payments on time and stay within your credit limit they will reward you! I did have to pay another $150.00 annual fee and I am sure that's what they used to give me my increase, you gotta love it!

One minute I hear they are going out of business, the next I hear they are slashing limits and closing accounts, now I hear they are still showing luv... Lolz! Way to go, try and see if they will lower your annual fee.

Got the card in the summer of 2008. used it a little and always paid. I went from $300 to $600 over night also. bought an airplane ticket on line and sent in a large payment... Then... Instantly canceled after I was told I was in in good standing... GOOD STANDING and they canceled... The website is late in maintenance but they still charge you for crappy service...
get ready... They are about to dropped hammer and cut you loose...

Just made my 3rd year anniversary, annual fee $75, CL increase $50... Oh well did not have to pay the $150 annual fee.

Just tried to make a reservation and gave my card # over the phone, when I showed up I was told my card was declined, this happened in front of my guests which is always a nice thing! Called tribute and was given the story that they are closing everyones account and going out of business. I have had this card for 2 1/2 years now never been late and had a samll credit limit of 2,600.00. Basically I pretty much paid off my balance almost every month, rarley made any minimum payments. They were not making much $$$ of me so instead of raising my limit they closed my account. I hope this does not lower my FICO score. They are just looking for people that can't pay! This card sucks!

Another sad story about this card. I hope you were able to use another cc for the reservation, this is embarrassing and sickening to hear. Sorry Buddie, just move on to a better card than these people.
