1) Capital One Platinum (x2)
2) Starting limit $1,000, don't remember other limit.
3) Both opened in 2003 by my mom when I was 17
4) One was closed by mom, one hat I did not know about, the other closed by me when Capital One imposed monthly fee on the card when I was barely using it.

First Card: Carte Blanche

Credit Limit: None/NPSL

Year Opened: 1972 at age 21

Still Open?: No, unfortunately. I was young and foolish in those days, thought I was going to conquer the world, see the sights, yada yada. Didn't take care of it, and it was closed. Getting credit back in those days was a LOT different than today.
