Re: Applied for another Capital One card and was denied for strange reason

I have 5 but had 4 a month a ago. I closed a card and waited for the prequal. Took a few months but finally happened. Cold apping for cap1 cards when I was ever at the 4 card mark resulted in denial.

They must use a different type of scoring model.  They have my EX FICO at 676.  My First Bankcard has it at 713 (same dates)


usually use 04 scores not enhanced.. I think that means you hit their ceiling as well is my guess unless manual UW will turn it over.  Best of luck


Thanks CC.  It's doubtful, but hopeful

Sounds like you have hit their ceiling. If I were you honestly id strongly consider taking a break from apping for awhile.

Thanks for the advice but one size doesn't fit all in this game called credit.

To get as much credit as I can.  It's my goal.   I'm not seeking approval.

It looks like you made this game (as you call credit) into an arms race, lol.

 

Looks like you hit the wall with CO and maybe others as well, IMO.

That may be and it's intriguing to me.  Yes I've reached my limit with many creditors and that's not going to stop me from going forward.
