Our Verdict
Best offer in the past was 100,000 points. That offer was more flexible as it didn’t have the $250 travel credit but had a slightly higher minimum spend requirement at $5,000. Still worth considering/doing for most people as I’m not sure if/when we will ever see that 100,000 point offer again. Read these things everybody should know about Capital One cards. We will add this to our list of the best credit card bonuses.
Updated as Expired
Applied & denied for “too many accounts opened in the last 24 months.” Neat that I received my denial letter right away via email. Letter used Transunion- score of 745 with reported income of 83k. edit: also 25+ open accounts
Existing customer with VX & checking. Venture did not populate in pre-approval took but, saw some DPs that some were still approved despite not showing.
4/24 (1 account opened 5/10/23, so should be 3/24 when applying) & frozen experian credit report.
Considering attempting to call the app line for a reconn. Maybe to unfreezing my experian in an attempt for an approval but, I’m not hopeful as my x/24 status aint changing.
I called in to find out when my bonus posted for this card in May 2021, as I want to apply if possible before May 12. Turns out, they have no record of me having this card, nor any of the other Capital One (4+) cards that I have opened and closed previously. They only had a record of my current credit card and closed checking/savings accounts.
This is wild. Anyone else experience this?
Does this work if we have an existing Venture X card?
DP: couldn’t get instant virtual card number
Used, thanks
Just wanted to confirm that I used the link posted by @lulu on the referral thread, for the 100,000 point bonus offer. Hopefully the referrer gets credit for my new card, as I haven’t had a Capital One card since 2022. Card was immediately approved through the referral link.
Awsome, I have 100K referral link as well if needed.
How to generate referral link that gives 100k miles? Mine only gives 75k miles + 250 credit
Same. Bummer. If you find out, let me know.
@beat2def I have one but seems that posting is not allowed?
I have the card, but I’m trying to generate a referral for a friend.
I don’t know if the link is alive
Posting works?
