Capital One Softs Routinely?

 

I have 3 Capital One Accounts , is it normal for them to soft pull often? One of them is even pulling every month

I know Softs don't affect but was intresting, oh and for those that have USAA credit monitoring there is a way to view soft pulls by going to dispute center top left  then Experian Online Dispute then confirm your address and select print report and it will show you ll the expierian soft pulls

Is the purpose of them doing this to offer you pre-approvals or to see if your applying for other credit?

Yes it is normal.  But I don't understand why they always soft cardmembers when it doesn't lead to CLIs.

I get a soft from Capital One just about every month, and I don't even carry one of their cards!  I get LOTS of mail pre-approvals from them though.

Re: Capital One Softs Routinely?

I had 2 accounts with CAP1 and recently closed my "steps" card since it won't grow.  I am thinking of getting rid of my other Cap1 accounts since it wont grow either and they jacked the interest rate.  Both are / were 3 years old.

 

Recently I pulled my FULL CR and Cap1 has not softed me at all in the last 2 years.

You can one for free from each CRA once a year at annualcreditreport.com or you can buy one directly from the CRA's.

Re: Capital One Softs Routinely?

I disputed a wrong account on my report and when they sent me an email to view the results of their investigation, it gave me a chance to look at my entire "real" CR.  Nice, but I won't do that again.
