I also explained due to some mistakes in my earlier years I had some negative marks on my credit but since then, I've been building positive lines that have been kept with low limits and no late payments. I also attached bank statements for 2 cycles and my past 2 pay stubs.
Late today I got a reply saying my recon was approved...I got $5K!!! I would say this is my highest credit card to date, but guess what happened earlier today? Capital One showed me some love and increased my credit line from $1,500 to $7,500...I'm extremely excited and I thank this forum and all you that posted. I was devastated I had a hard hit on my credit, but no credit line in return. Super excited about rebuilding my credit!
WTG!!!! This is a great news. Congrats on the recon and CLI with CapOne. Now off to garden I hope
Glad to hear your 
's back in one piece!
