Sorry you didn't get the right EO person...Bad move by CAP1

But they have been handling request through the EO for almost 2 years and as a matter of fact I spoke with them this morning for my 2nd attempt for 2 CLI's as well as change my 1.5% rewards to 2%

 

My first resulted in 2 accounts being doubled in March of this year 

Just my thoughts but you should try again maybe you'll get a better trained rep 

Good luck 

 

 


For which card are you asking to be changed from 1.5% rewards to 2%? QuickSilver? Is such a thing possible?


I'd like to know as well. O:

Re: Capitol One EO Preparation

They said I will keep no annual fee with the card, but she mentioned that because they were able to approve a partial increase no reasons for why I didn't get the full increase were given. 

 

I'm basically SDing the card anyways, so I'm not overly concerned. This makes me want to never ap-ply for a prime card with Cap One, their customer service and polices aren't upto par with other lenders

Re: Capitol One EO Preparation

Putting the request in for manual review is SOP. They will call you back with the good or bad news.

Fingers crossed!

Sorry just getting back to you don't know how I missed this question

It was a cash rewards recently converted to quicksilver this month by Cap1 and that card I requested 2x miles 

So essentially I'd like to change that to the venture card point structure you never know until you ask and I seem to remember one such case 

 

The other card is a sparks business which I requested be bumped from 1% to 2% 

 

 

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Re: Capitol One EO Preparation

I asked Cap 1 to change my regular Platinum MC to a Quicksilver card & they did without a hp.
My score went from 575 to 770 in 4 1/2 months (information I got from my credit union. ) Starting out, I didn't know about inquiry damage. Of course I knew about paying on time & in full but not usage.
Initially they told me my limit would be staying at $300, but, when my card arrived my limit was $800. They have raised all 3 of my cards cl's by $500. 1 of them started as a HSBC card. I am trying to upgrade it to a cb card now. Go to their site, hit accounts then offers or services. I called & the service rep guided me through it. That's how I got 2 of my cli's. For my Quicksilver card, they checked if I was preapproved. Even though you are, you have to check. They don't notify you or do it automatically. At least they never have with me. When my score went up I checked. They are the only bank, I know of, that does it this way. I don't know what will happen with card #3 since I have both their cb cards. The one with the $1250 limit, I got when my score was low but it was always a cb card, they I don't remember the original limit, probably about &400. Now it's $1250. Not alot compared to Disc at $1900 & Barclay's & my CU Visa rewards at $5000 ea. My combined credit is about $25,000. I started with a Cap1 Rewards with a $400 cl & then they added a MC with a $300 cl. I'm hoping they will combine my no rewards card with my Quicksilver card.
That's how I did it. Good luck!

Capital One will not combine accounts or CLs, even the EO channel will be unable to do this - just FYI.
