Re: Capital One how I love you!

I decided to close out my 2.5 year old secured card this morning. It was at 750 and going no where. My Quicksilver is at 3,500 and my Journey at 2,300. I had been wanting to try for the Venture but with the 3 accounts I was out of luck. Well I figured I'd wait a month and go for it..... 10 minutes after I closed it I said let me see what preapproval says and low and behold the Venture came up so I said what the heck let me all for it. Instant approval for 10k! I almost choked. Seeing as my score was 525 a year ago I couldn't believe it! I know there's a lot of cap one haters out there but man one thing I know is that if your good to them and accept their lousy limits when your starting out they will more than take care of you down the road! Btw my score is around 660 right now. I was at 703 at my peak in February but fell off after my new car loan.
