CapOne Venture Rewards First Impressions

Just received my 10,000 bonus miles for spending $1,000 within the first 3 months! The bonus came within a few days of my first statement closing date. I've got to say that I had one of CapOne's rebuilder cards before and they were NOT my  favorite because of the low limit (still at $750, lol). But I have enjoyed this card thus far! No AF, a decent limit (3k), 0% intro APR, and some great rewards on a very easy to use and aesthetically pleasing site.

 

Surprisngly impressed with CapOne! Smiley Very Happy

That's great! Did they do 3 HP for the card?

Re: CapOne Venture Rewards First Impressions

Enjoy it! It sounds like they treat their prime cardholders/accounts differently than the subprime/rebuilders. Congrats!

Thank you! I've heard this before, but it's one of those things that you have to experience to believe! The Venture One is really changing my opinion of CapOne after years of being stuck with the Credit Steps rebuilding card. Who knew they had some good in them! lol

 

This forum helped me make better credit decisions, which is why I was even eligible for the prime card, so THANKS EVERYONE!
