Crap One

[DrJim]

I receive preapprovals from Capital One almost daily.  I am not exaggerating, almost daily.  I opted out years ago, but at one time my wife got a Capital One card in my name.  Today I recieved a preapproval for,...drumroll please...$1,500!  As you can see from my siggy below, I sent it to the shredder.  Last opened account was over two years ago.  Last credit card was 4-5 years ago.  In. The. Garden.

Hi Dr. You may need to opt-out again if you want to stop getting the preapprovals.

I think you really need that 1500 dollar limit  We usually dont grab our mail til saturdays and between my roommate and I there are usually 7 cap one offers in there. Maybe they could save a bit of postage and raise limits and drop their rates 

[DrJim]

Unfortunately, if you have a previous business relationship with someone they can still send you stuff even if you opt out.  Guess I could go straight to them and ask for them to leave me alone.

There is a form at the post office you can fill out to stop sexually explicit mail from being sent to you by a particular company.  The postmaster does not get to decide what qualifies -- you do.  I have used this tactic in the past for certain junk mail, and I think Crapital One would make an excellent candidate.

But I'll wager that in 2009 when OP claims he had "starting scores" in the 600's that he had a Crap One card... or two.

LOL

Well we already know you are an idiot or a troll. I already said in this thread, if you read it, that I have an existing relationship. And, yes, I had scores in the 600's due to the fact that I didn't use revolvers for 10 years. And your comment and adolescent "lol" add to this conversation in a helpful way how?

Actually I'm neither... I read the OP (that's original post...) and replied to it.  I just skimmed the rest of the thread because I just didn't care enough to read the rest.

LOL is a common internet phrase... which means I was laughing at the fact you came here to these forums to let us all know that you got a $1500 offer from "CrapOne" in your mail today... like any of us are supposed to care.

BTW, I'm 40... and thanks for letting us know about your pre-approvals!  I will sleep better tonight!
