Re:		World Financial Network National Bank
		World Financial Network Credit Card Master Trust
		(File No. 333-998)

Dear Sirs:

Enclosed herewith for filing on behalf of the trust fund (the “Trust”) created pursuant to a Pooling and Servcing Agreement dated as of January 17, 1996 (the “Agreement”) between World Financial Network National Bank, a national banking association, as transferor and servicer and The Bank of New York, a New York banking association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), is a copy, including exhibits, of the Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Report”).

The Trust consists of a pool of receivables derived from credit card loans and certain other assets and has issued two series of certificates each such series representing two classes of beneficial ownership interests in such assets. Both series of certificates and each of the two classes in each such series were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-998). As a result, the Trust is subject to the filing requirements of Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

The Trust intends to fulfill these filing requirements in a manner substantially in accordance with the procedures outlined in numerous no-action letters already issued by the Staff with respect to substantially similar trusts (see, for example, Chemical Bank Credit Card Trust 1989-A (available February 6, 1997); Chevy Chase Savings Bank, F.S.B. (available July 31, 1989); and MBNA Credit Card Trust 1988-B, (available December 30, 1988)), for the same reasons as discussed in such letters. In particular:

1. The Trust has already filed a Current Report on Form 8-K containing an executed copy of the Agreement and certain related agreements and exhibits.

2. The Trust will file, promptly after each Distribution Date (as defined in the Agreement), a Current Report on Form 8-K in substantially the form enclosed herewith, including as an exhibit thereto the applicable Monthly Report. Each such Current Report will also disclose under Item 5 any matter occurring during the relevant reporting period which would be reportable under Item 1, 2, 4 or 5 of Part II of Form 10-Q.

3. The Trust will file a Current Report on Form 8-K within the period required by the instructions to Form 8-K after the occurrence of any event described under Item 2, 3, 4 and 5 thereof, responding to the requirements of the applicable item.

4. Within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, the Trust will file an annual report on Form 10-K which responds to Items 3 and 4 of Part I, Items 5 and 9 of Part II, Items 12 and 13 of Part III and Item 14 of Part IV thereof, and include as exhibits thereto certain information from the Monthly Reports aggregated for such year and a copy of the independent accountants’ annual compliance statement required under the Agreement, in the manner described in the applicable no-action letters.

The Trust will follow the above procedures except for any fiscal year as to which its reporting obligations under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act have been suspended pursuant to such Section. In such event, the Trust will file a Form 15 as required under Rule 15d-6.

We understand that following the above-mentioned procedures would be acceptable to the Commission, notwithstanding the absence of a no-action letter specifically relating to the Trust. We assume that the Staff will promptly inform us if our understanding is correct of if its position in this area has changed. Please direct any questions or comments concerning the foregoing to Carolyn Melvin at 614-729-4900 or, in her absence, to Rob Hugi of Mayer, Brown & Platt at 312-701-7121.

Very truly yours,

Daniel T. Groomes
