Ok, so I know some of you guys are following the Cap1 threads. If you have you know that I got a call back from the Exec office last week concerning my call to them this past July. They surprised me with the call, as I thought the CLI denial in July was the last I was gonna hear from them. SO, you can imagine my shock today when they call back to tell my they have processed my CLI and its APPROVED -PENDING!!! You guys will NEVER guess what the PENDING part is about.....CAP1 is actually doing the equivalent of an AMEX F/R to me. They are Requesting last years bank statements, Current pay stubs and Bank statements! I couldn't believe it. I've never heard of CAP1 requesting this sort of info from card holders. Of coarse, it is at any banks discretion to do so, but I mean come on....CAP1, never heard of them doing it....how about you guys? IM really not against it because I can prove all of what I claimed, Income, current employment, assets, etc etc. Heck I even claimed less income than what I actually make when Cap1 asked for it last week. It just really threw me for a loop, coming way out of left field.lol. So I want to ask you guys something. Would YOU submit all this info to Cap1 for a CLI? Like I said, I am not against it, its just a headache and ALOT of paper work that's gonna have to be retrieved and faxed and so on and so forth. I am just trying to decide if it is worth it or not? You guys help me out here? Throw me all your opinions and what you would do in this situation!

They can take their sub-prime plastic and put it where the sun don't shine if they ever asked me for any of that!! 
It is indeed VERY strange. I have actually now been put into direct contact with the Senior U/W team and been given their direct fax # to send documents to. The Exec Office Rep said that between the U/W's and me, we should be able to handle it now. But if I THOUGHT something was taking too long or something didn't sound right to me, she wanted me to give her a call back at her office so she could step back in and act on MY behalf, but she did not foresee us having a problem bc I "seemed" like a nice person and the senior U/W team is a "joy" to work with. The rep honestly acted like she would "defend" me if I had ANY (she kept emphasizing that word lol) problems. I can honestly say IM dumbfounded and speechless at these recent events.

IMO it isn't worth it, but this is your account and it all depends on how you personally feel about it. I would take it as an insult if a creditor asked me for such things with my current payment history and other accounts in good standing.

She said that it may be only 1 of these things or all 3, she couldn't be certain yet. I am going to be receiving a letter in the mail within 7 days detailing the information they are seeking. If its only 1 of the 3 things, I may do it but IM certain IM gonna say screw it if they are asking for a 3, esp for a silly CLI. That's really sensitive info and cap1 is diving deep into my financials. It is most certainly ODD. Definitely Do Not know why they are doing this to me.
oh c'mon guys, somebody has to be a pioneer for all us subprime guys!!
