To all those curious to know what this merger means, I contacted Capital One.

Yes, you will get a new card with Capital One logo on it

Yes, your credit card numbers will stay the same (small amount of people will have a new number)

No, they WON'T combine the cards or the credit limits:

Adonis: I am sorry, you will be not able to link the credit limit of two Capital One accounts.

And here I was hoping they'd combine them so I don't have to keep this pitifully low limit orchard bank card!
