Orchard Bank to Capital One ...

I just got notice that my Orchard Bank card is now a Capital One card.  

 

Considering I already have a Capital One card, should I ask them to simply combine the credit limits and close the Orchard Bank?

 

Thanks!

According to FAQ, you cannot combine CL between Cap1 and Orchard Bank right now.

The account item on the CR has not been changed yet. Still reporting as

I have not received anything from them yet regarding any changes

Re: Orchard Bank to Capital One ...

I'm in the same boat..

 

Orchard: $500

Orchard Platinum: $1600 (They've been giving me CLIs every so often, and the interest rate is 13.95% on my last statement)

 

CapitalOne: $750 ($500 then $750, been that way for over a year)

Capital One rewards: $1250 ($750 original, then $1250, no CLIs otherwise)

 

I was going to close the two lower limit cards, but I really do wonder what Capital One is going to do. If you remember from another thread I posted, I tried to call Orchard to close the $500 limit card but could never get through to anybody. I'm just letting the lower limit cards sit around with $0 balances right now.
