Capital One Venture - Account Combination

[Lyythine]

After waiting for 2 years for Finstar to combine his 2 50k cards to see if he got AA, I finally gave in and combined my two accounts...

New combined limit of 43k

Nice job!

Fin is on hiatus for the last several months. Will resurface later as well as Ron1...I miss our old team!!

Nice!!! 

Are you savings up your miles for something specific? That's a pretty large balance. I'm TOTALLY jealous!!! I recently redeemed all of my miles for various gift cards.

Gdanzy,

No, I'm not saying up for anything specific. I just let them sit there until I think about it or I come up with some far fetched idea to use them on. I also have 917,000 Amex points as of today... I need to come up with some exotic trip/experience lol


Pizza,

Nice to see you!!!! I miss the old team too

Wow! That's nice! And those points!! You have monster discipline not to have cashed them in something until now!

Congrats on your account combo! $43K is a great CL

I'm just curious, do you find that the Venture perks value offset the $59AF in your case?

Good job

Absolutely, Ahmed - the perks are none except the 2 points per dollar spent, which can easily offset the fee. Especially if you redeem for travel statement credit, which I think has the best value at 100 points per $1
