No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Discover possibly ... might be a stretch though.
OpenSky would probably be best
It is my understanding that since the account was charged off, his security deposit will go towards the new account. Capital One is not allowed to take payments on Charged off accounts.

I have a question he burned CapOne maybe 5 years ago but app'd for their secured card maybe a month ago and it said he was approved.
Do you think that if he sent in the security deposit for the secured card that they would instead apply that towards his old balance which they sent to a CA?
No, Cap one has long since divested themselves of that old account. If its reporting as a charge off with a balance he may need to pay it off before he can get any unsecured credit cards.
Look into joining SDFCU and get secured loan and secured card with one deposit, in addition to the Open Sky card.
