Cap One APPROVAL!!!

Sooo... I burned Cap One in my bk that was discharged in January. I tried to get another card from them a few times over the last few months and was denied. I radomly decided to give it yet another whirl last week, and I got an approval!! 

 

But it gets better! Guess for how much???? 3,000!!! When the customer service rep told me, I asked her to repeat herself because I was in complete disbelief and shock. Lol. I am sooooo excited!

Re: Cap One APPROVAL!!!

Congratulations on your approval! I burned Cap1 for around 11k and I should be receiving my discharge some time this week. I'm hoping they let me back in.... eventually. If you don't mind sharing, how much did you burn them for?

Congrats again!

Congrats!

Cap One can be very forgiving.

I burned them and started my rebuild with a $3k plat 5 years ago.

Now I have over $80k available between 3 cards.

Use it, Pay it, Grow it.

GL!

Rebuild started in 2014  -  $100k unsecured credit in 2017  -  $500k unsecured credit in 2024.

DON'T WORK FOR CREDIT CARDS ... MAKE CREDIT CARDS WORK FOR YOU!

Thanks! At what point would you suggest that I apply for a second card with them?

Re: Cap One APPROVAL!!!

I burned Cap One... they denied me (fairly quickly I might add) I currently have a 692 EQ, 685 TU... so I’m guessing they just decided they don’t want me right now. It’s fine.. I have a Credit One with a $650 limit and a recently granted fingerhut revolving for $250. The fingerhut will never get used... the Credit one pays my cell, internet, etc and then I pay it off twice a month. I’d like access to more credit... but I’m only 4 months out of discharge.
