Havent been on MyFico in awhile, but i think its time to close of my Cap 1 cards or even both. Normal platinum card with really nothing to offer and stuck at 1,500 CL and a cash rewards green card stuck at 750 CL. My other cards and scores are in my sig. Might close them and try to CSP. once i get CSP ill be done for awhile.
Just went on Cap 1 site and noticed they changed the site quite a bit. I havent been on in like a month cause these cards never have balance. Saw they added a request increase line of credit. I went for it because they are a soft pull. Took my green cash rewards card up to 1250 automatically.
They must've seen my post on here. HAHA

With scores like yours I would definitely call the EO and request that they upgrade both accounts! Try the Venture to see what happens....and while you're at it tell those people to hook you up with a credit limit that makes sense! Its a soft pull so what do you have to loose? Go high, they will counter you. You are a shoe in for a nicer card with a low apr and and higher limit. Get to work!

Congrats on the CSP but unless either of your Cap One cards have an annual fee, I don't know that I would be in a rush to close them. If you email the EO, you may find that you can get some decent increases on them with a SP. My Cap One has gone from $1500 to $5000 to $7000 by going through the EO. The second time, they added 1% cash back.
I know all about the Exec Office. I emailed them awhile ago for my regular platinum card they put it at 1500 from 500. I actually emailed Richard Fairbanks
Tried the new Cap 1 luv button again, Yesterday it gave me 500 on my cash rewards and it gave me another 500 on my platinum just now. May just try the EO after all since they Cap 1 has clearly changed some policies. It took me a week and a half of phone calls and waiting to get 1000 dollars a few months ago and now i get 1000 in 2 days without even talking to anybody. Im gonna see if they will give me atleast 5000 on one card and get rid of the other card.
