Cap 1 Card

I have a capital one card that shows up on all three of my credit reports as active and zero balance. The last late shows dec 2005 since then it shows current. I was not aware i still had this card and not even sure if it was not just charged off. Should I call them and ask about this account to see if it is still open or should I just let it be?

Re: Cap 1 Card

I would ask CAP1 to reopen if they agree to remove lates... I doubt they will, but give it a shot!

Re: Cap 1 Card

My experience with Capital One is that if you pay it up, they will remove the lates. Just send a dispute stating NEVER LATE and every time I've told people to do this, they are removed and generally, even when you pay it, Capital One will keep it open. They don't close an account until you call in and fight for them to cancel. They want every one to have an account with them.

Re: Cap 1 Card

I am not sure if I owe anything it says zero balance and not late. I try calling and their computers are down for updates right now. Maybe I have a credit card account I have forgotten about?

Re: Cap 1 Card

Possibly but I would call and ask them to send you out another card. Then see what the interest rate is and decide whether to keep it. If there is no annual fee, keep it to maintain a long history with them.

Cap One would not reopen two CC's that I closed a couple of years ago. One actually only a year and one half deceased. Perfect record on both. Dumb.
