Cap1 CLI!

I have a Journey Student Visa from Cap1 opened in 11/11.  Started at $1000CL, credit stepped to $1500 6 mos later.  Today I noticed a new link on the Cap1 website to request CLI.  I did, entered my income, and got a $500CLI. No hard pull.  I'm still shocked, and the irony is that I was just approved for a $2000CL Visa with my CU.  But still, try clicking that Cap1 link!

Congrat! Cap One is usually horrible with CLI.

Re: Cap1 CLI!

Be very wary about Crap 1, they have ruined me in the past. I still have one, an Orchard Bank card with a low CL of 1150, which was purchased by Crap 1 and I am not giving it up yet, not to destroy my AAOA

Re: Cap1 CLI!

I too have my oldest account with Cap1 now, my old Household Bank MC that is 6 years older than my next-oldest account.  It has a $59AF, no rewards, and is still at the penalty 26.9% rate from a late payment in 2007.  They won't help me a bit.  Oddly, my cash advance rate is 24.9%, but I've never used it.

I opened my Cap1 VentureOne (one of the 2 cc's that I have) in early July and received 10,000 CL. I hope that I can get it to go up to 15,000 by summer of next year. Smiley Happy
