Capital One, One Day Late

I was one day late on my Capital One card.  I've had the card since September.

 

This'll be a lesson to me, to set up autopay for the minimum payment, atleast.

 

----------------------

 

Hoping to step out of the garden at the end of June, and app for unsecured cards.  Would this greatly affect my chances with Capital One?

I make sure to try and pay off statemnt balance as soon as it posts. Just to be safe. I know its not possible for everybody. If you can't pay off statement balance, then i would make sure pay min as soon as statement posts.

One day shouldn't hurt, to be honest I'd call Cap1 and ask them to overlook that one (if its the only one since Sept).  My DG forgot to pay her Citi card (refuses to use online payment even though I beg and plea with her) after seeing the late fee she was mad but called and they wiped it out.  I'd suggest not letting it happen again.

This is not going to affect you applying for new credit at banks other than Cap-1, it needs to get to 30 days past due to report to the CRAs. It may internally affect ability for CLIs and new credit with Cap-1 for awhile even if you are able to get them to remove the late fee.

Re: Capital One, One Day Late

It was my one and only late.

 

I stepped out of the garden one month before plan, and applied for a Capital One.  Was approved at $2000, my first unsecured card (besides Fingerhut)

The same thing happened to me, then they gave me a CLI. I guess it increased my odds of using their interest for a large purchase lol.

Re: Capital One, One Day Late

Call them and tell them you pay through the mobile app and it would not go through. I had this problem last month. I really was trying to pay through the mobile app and it kept restarting the app. I called the next day and told them I thought it had gone through but after looking on a PC it did not show any pending payments. They apologized for the app error and removed the late fee.
