Cap 1 Upgrade Offers

[nytokyobred79]

Was checking the mobile site for special offers and to my surprise, there are 3 upgrade offers for my Venture Rewards card. Although I'm not looking to pc to any of the offered cards, I wanted to share with the community.

I like my Savor for the 8% back on entretainment, which we use a lot. None of the other cards appeal to me and My SavorOne is the first card I reaach for. I dont see myself really ever applying for another Cap1 card, but I do see value in the VX when comparing it to the Reserve.

@Blender I've been thinking about Savor One and if it ever somehow appeared as an upgrade offer, I might take it. But not looking to apply outright and take all those hp(s) for the card.

Thank you for sharing. Unfortunately, nothing there for me. 🤔

@CorpCrMgr1 Hope you get some decent offers soon. I'm not sure if this has had any influence but I have spent about 700 dollars on some travel, dining and hotel expenses the past month. And PIF right away. Prior to that, I had typically only spent around 50-60 bucks a month on some recurring subscriptions in the prior 6-8 months. Other than that, my scores have been pretty stable and some inquiries reached the 1 year point. Have had the card for about 1.8 years. 

PS- I did call asking about potential upgrade to Savor One about a month ago but the CSR wasn't much help and ended the call quickly. I did give them a low score on one of their surveys and then got a call from a senior CSR about the feedback. I highly doubt my feedback yielded the offers 🤔

@nytokyobred79  Thank you for your input. Glad CSR responded to your survey. That is a rarity today.

@CorpCrMgr1 100% agree. I was surprised but happy they took the time to call. As to the upgrade offers, it's Cap1 so who knows what their algorithms decide these days, right 😅 ?

@nytokyobred79  Unfortunately you almost surely won't see a SavorOne PC offer as it was never available as a Visa.  Capital One normally does not let you PC from a Visa to MC and vice versa.  With Venture being a Visa Signature you're options would be limited to VX (Visa Infinite), QS (currently issued as MC for new applications, but has been issued as Visa previously and still in service so can PC to QS as a Visa), or VentureOne (same situation as quicksilver with it not being issued as MC for new applications but since Visa versions were previously issued and in service).  SavorOne PCs have all come from cards that were already MC.

@Zoostation1 Thank you for pointing that out. I didn't realize that Savor One's are exclusively MC. I guess I'll resign myself to having to app outright if I really want the Savor One. Appreciate the details 😊

I'll be in the garden until next February so I may consider the Savor One although my bigger priority is likely an Altitude Reserve once I reach 0/12 for new accts.

Hi @Blender 

>>I like my Savor for the 8% back on entretainment, which we use a lot.

Curious - what have you used it on that has fallen under the 8% for Entertainment?

I am assuming movies, maybe concerts, what else?
