Re: Holy smokes Capital One!

Thanks everyone, I've learned so much from this site and the various threads.  While it's not popular around here, I'll be forever gratefull to Cap 1 for extending me my 1st credit card in a very long time and getting back on a road to credit prosperity.

 

Now, it's time to wait until September to go Prime baby!  With my scores and my current limits on the 2 cards that I have I shouldn't have a problem getting the 1 I have my sites on.

Congrats.  I got an auto CLI as well.  I went from $500 that I've had for 5 years to $4500.  I though it was a mistake, but recieve a letter saying thanks for being a loyal customer, blah, blah, blah.   I about fell out of my chair!

Same thing happened to me this month! I opened with Capital One for my first credit card in college (2000) with a $300 limit, it was then raised to $1000 a few years later and I just checked and I was raised to $4000.  Thank you Capital One!

Re: Holy smokes Capital One!

I can beat that. I've had a $700 CL for 11 years now with a $39 AF. The only reason I keep it is for the history. It's the oldest active TL on my report. I'll probably pay the last AF from Capitol One out of my estate funds when I die. LOL

Best financial advice I ever got: "Just imagine what an adult would do and do that."

Starting Score: 500's
Current Score: EQ 701 (FICO) TU 721 (FICO) EX 715 (Quizzle)
Goal Score: 760 ALL
