Cap1 secured cards dont graduate though.

Agree better off with a BofA secured if that can be obtained or SDFCU which requires no HP if OP goes secured route.
I can testify that my gf got approved for capone QS1 with a score in the high 400's..she has unpaid student loans that are 4+ years old...so high 500's looks a lot better than high 400s.
With that being said, call and recon!! Like many have said, what's the worst they can do, say no? Tell them you are rebuilding. Tell them you made mistakes and rectified them by paying them off..plead your case, be honest ++ lie a bit if you have to (yeah, oxymoron). Sweet talk them and tell them you would really love a chance with capital one..cross your fingers and hope for the best, it can all depend on the analyst you get on the phone as well...he may have not gotten any from his wife last night and could be grumpy or quite possibly receive some road head from DW on his way to work and is in a great approving mode, you never know!
Does anyone have the cap1 EO number. I've googled and keep getting "you've won a free trip" thing. Pm me please..
I found it, had to get off my mobile. Called and talked to them and i gave them my income and housing expenses and they said i would get a response in 3-5 days. Wish me luck! i'm going to need it!

Granted I had alot of postive stuff on my credit report as well, so score is not everything it is the profile they look at more then the score.. Granted the OP might have a whole different profile and most likely does than I did at the time.. I am still at a 660ish EX and havfe a 20k+ Amex plus the other cards I have, so once again score isnt everything.
Worth a recon atttempt if not possibly a Journey card and PC it? I believe journey might be easier than QS1
No it's not, but it helps.
If there is any lender that will approve a 530 score, it's CapOne.
Just wanted to update on my EO experience. Called and spoke with a very nice woman. She requested my income and bills and submitted as of today its still being reviewed so im not sure how its going to turn out. Hope i get it guys

Call & recon. I think you have a chance. Seen approvals with your scores on here as well.
