Capital One Credit Card

Just got approved $500 limit for a Capital One credit card. How long does it take to get an increase on this card?

Unless you're part of the credit step program it may take years.  How strong is your credit?

You may get an increase every six months.  Congrats for not being stuck with a no builder card.

Re: Capital One Credit Card

Thats good news! Hope it works like that for me! If you dont mind me asking... Did you hold a balance on the card and how much of an increase was it?
