Credit One Changing their ways??

So, over the last year or so, I've seen a lot of stuff about Credit One credit cards. I decided to shy away from them, but I applied today for the card.  

 

Even though it states "Credit limit $300 or $500," they must be mistaken because they approved me for $1500 SL, $49 AF (first year waived), no monthly fee. at 10.49

 

The APR was set at 10.49%. That's lower then my Cap One card ($5k CL, 29.99% APR)

 

Maybe they're changing their ways?

That isn't too bad there. I think on the offers I got before, it said up to $1500. Nice that you got that limit!

Re: Credit One Changing their ways??

Does credit one charge interest from the date of purchase? Or just at the closing date?

Yeah the interest at purchase posting would be a big fat NO for me. But congrats on your approval! That's unheard of credit one!

Re: Credit One Changing their ways??

YES THEY DO charge interest from purchase date...No grace period...I would advise to push payments to them instead of pull... they only let you make I think 3 ( I know it is very limited ) payments within 30 days.

 

I saw they advertised giving you 1% back on gas and groceries...take that with a grain of salt never carry a balance on that card longer than you have to use it sparingly and go to your bank account login an push a payment the day before it will post.
