Yet another Cap1 E.O. Success story!

Just logged into my Cap1 account and BAM! 

2k CL up from $750!  BAM!!!

 

Now I just have to wait for the dude from Cap1 to call me to confirm they ditched the AF and I'll be thrilled!

This is my Cash Rewards acct. This card has been open 9 months... but I have 18 months with Cap1 (secured card opened 7/11)

 

Thanks to all those who came before me and did the legwork and shared their experiences or I wouldn't have even bothered trying the E.O. route. 

 

 

For those who are wondering, I wrote the email late last friday afternoon. 

E.O. called me monday afternoon and today the CLI showed up. I requested 3k but agreed to taking a smaller CLI if that was the best they could do.. and yeah, I'm happy with it. 

 

This makes 3 solid CLI's for the month of January

Amazon - $1600 - $3200

Meijer - $500 - $1000

Cap1 - $750-$2000

Plus a brand new Amex Delta on the way!

Without THIS forum I wouldn't even be in the position to make this request. 

I have nothing but HUGE appreciation for the people here that have helped me figure things out Smiley Happy

I haven't seen a HP yet and I specifically told the rep I was speaking with on the phone that I was NOT interested in a HP at this time. He assured me it would be a SP. 

We'll see. Smiley Happy

Re: Yet another Cap1 E.O. Success story!

Hahaha! Congrats! Looks like you got your increase as well. I got a call back today and they said all they could do was increase my limit. They couldn't add the rewards I wanted because the card was a co-branded one. Sucks but hey, I actually got something out of them.

 

All-in-all, congrats!
