Re: Updated Capital One Venture Sign Up Bonus 75k Miles

 Right now I'm at 79.694 miles. Cash out is $398.47. For those interested that brought up the option for cashing out.

This is a great offer. I looked at prequalify page and all I am getting is quicksilver one. I guess 28/24 is a little bit too much for them. My Experian is clean at 770. Not worth 3 hard pulls to get rejected.

I don’t get any offers for what its worth i am 3/24, and my fico scores are also in the same range. I don’t have one cap one card either oh well , I will let everybody else try out the card and see which partners they like in their new program .

Wow, that is an interesting change for Cap One, both the SUB and transfer partners.

I am at 4/24, trying to decide on the sequence of next apps, and this does complicate things, in a good way.

I closed my $30k limit Venture, from a 2015 app, several months ago. Did not move any limit to my QS $10k, to leave room for future Cap One apps.

Have been eying Savor, and now the question becomes, will Savor points be transferable into Venture?

Venture would give 1.5 transferable miles on Everything, Savor contributes 3 transferable miles on Dining and Entertainment. The $190 AF gets in the way eventually, but not a bad combo, when the known fallback is easy 2% and 4% earning categories if no transfer.

Re: Updated Capital One Venture Sign Up Bonus 75k Miles

I’ve always liked this card but my desire to build out a chase profile prevents me from doing so. The 10X on hotels.com is great and with the new travel partners and the tenth night free with hotels.com it can be a real value. What is the new evaluation of points with this news? I like to stay at places a handful of times a year where they have mom and pop hotels like certain beach towns in the NE and I often find myself booking through Hotels.com. I have a useless QS Card that’s in my SD and I was going to try and PC to a Venture Card. I don’t want to burn a 5/24 slot on it even though the SUB is nice but I think the 10X on hotels.com is good for another year? They’ll have to renew it otherwise it’ll truly be a one year only card at least for me.

It is 0.5 cent/pt for cashback so a horrible redemption.

you can cash out Venture points for 1cpp (statement credit) for travel

 

Easy hack to do it without actually travelling.

Book a refundable stay with Hotels.com. Wait unitl the charge posts to your CC balance, then cancel it (couple days later).

Give it another day or two, then the charge comes off your balance - but it still appears in the Rewards portal as a redeemable charge. Use your points to redeem for that charge.

I rather use a 2% cb card like the DC than go through all that.

No, I wouldn't use this card for every day spend, but if you want the 75 K pts.

 

All that said, C1 has a nice transfer partner system now, with a new pt currency, so its not actually a bad card anymore.

Then I would use how it was originally intended for (travel purchase credits). But like you said the transfer partners make this a different story.
