Total Visa??? Anyone have this card???

I was approved for A Total Visa with a 300$ credit line. Anxious to rebuild, I accepted. Just wondering if anyone has any info on this card/company. This is a different card from Total Rewards Visa. I have paid out 100$ in app fees so far, but im ok with that for now. CK is showing high 600 scores and good chance with Capital One cards but so far all ive gotten with them is a secured card and some inquiries... appreciate any insight... thanks in advance

Re: Total Visa??? Anyone have this card???

Only you can make that decision if its a good card or not for you. Way way back in the day like 8 years ago I had a card from them and 1st premier. The fees killed me and it seemed ridiculous to pay those fees when (if you can?) qualify for a capital 1secured card you atleast get your deposit back. Since you do now have it, I would use it until you get into a cap1 or maybe a Barclay card like Apple.You might want to try also a prequalify for Credit one (not Cap1) I had one of their cards for 1 year and there was no upfront fees.  Also make your payment way ahead of time also and use it for small 5 dollar purchase.

 

Good luck!

Actually I'm sorry you have Cap1 nd Credit one along with Wells fargo.. Why would you have applied for that predator card? See if you can cancel it? You didnt need them you have it perfect right now.. Just need to wait 6-9 months.

Good move to think it over, and also just an fyi, never put any faith into what CK says you can get approved for.

I have the card and I have had no problems with it. Yes I paid the fee upfront but everything has been cool so far. Customer service is good. I make a payment and it post the next day. No interest because I pay in full if I charge something. I would say keep it for 6 months and close it. That's my plan.
