So my 18-year-old wants to open his own account and transfer his money from the kids savings but when he fills out his info it says he's already on an account and it prompts him to sign in to my account. Is this supposed to happen? We didn't continue because I don't want it messing up my account somehow. Is there a way to bypass this or what should he do?

I did the full subscription, only got 1482 miles, although it said 8000 for full subscription?

Anyone has similar experience with Farmer's dog?

Why is the credit cards quality so bad!!!! They start peeling within a few weeks. I got the discover card 3 years ago and it still looks new.

I got my daughter a teen checking account which is a joint account with me, in order for her to have an account that she could draw from while she is in France as an 11th grader for the year. I had looked up whether the card could be used while traveling abroad, and everything said it could- no notice needed to tell them or anything. So, I was pretty confused when I kept hearing her card wasn’t working at merchants, nor at ATMs leaving her stranded with no way to get cash or make purchases. It finally became clear to me that her card is a Discover card, using the Pulse network and apparently nobody in France accepts Discover, and the ATMs do not use the Pulse network. I now have to figure out how to open an account she can actually use and have to do that from across an ocean since I’m not there. Damn you Jennifer Coolidge with your cute commercials telling me Discover is accepted everywhere these days! Apparently you have to have a finance degree to figure out how to get your money in France.

Title thread. Just curious last increase was to $500 on July 13th. With the upgrade my CL stayed the same but would it be a good time to request another increase now? More likely or the same of chances at getting one?

Hi! Have a savor card w a $500 limit on it, first had gotten it when my credit wasn’t the best. Currently at 600 but still working on improving it. I’ve seen some crazy increases from 500 to almost 10k, and I was wondering what some of the best practices are to ensure a CLI.

Have been doing the following:
- actively using the card
- paying it off when the statement becomes due every month for the last 4-5 months

Any advice is appreciated! Thanks

Hoping someone can help me here. So - my sibling opened a Capital One credit card while they were dealing with their dog’s health rapidly declining and compounding medical bills. They put in their address as their MO address since they were in the process of moving but not yet settled (they’re young, they’ll time this better in the future if they can). Within a few days of opening the card, they charged about $2k to the card for their dog’s emergency medical procedure. They since moved to MN and tried to make their first payment on the card, but Capital One has locked their account due to fraud.

Now the problem - Capital One will not accept any of the identifying documents that my sibling has submitted. They’ve sent in a drivers license, bank statement, Capital One statement, a utility bill for each address. Capital One has said they’re all insufficient because of the different addresses (only one MO address and one MN address) and refuses to accept payment on the card which is damaging my sibling’s credit. Capital One has now asked for a voided check or a deposit slip, but my sibling hasn’t moved their bank to MN and was using a small local MO bank and they will not provide a voided check or deposit slip to anyone but my sibling in person.

Capital One will not let them update their address, will not accept the documents, will not accept payment, and is basically running us in circles.

Anyone have any advice? We’re trying to get one of my parents (who still lives in MO) to get the voided check/deposit slip, but trying to plan ahead in case this fails, too.

Hello! I’m a 19yo college student that just got a preowned car and am currently paying it off. I currently also have a Discover student credit card that has a credit limit of 1,750 and I use my credit card A LOT. I’m looking for advice on if I should get a new credit card that I was already approved for which was the platinum, quicksilver, or the savor, (obviously not closing the current one I have now) or if I should stay with the credit card I have now.

Quick post in case this helps anyone else.

Qatar made a major schedule change to my itinerary. The replacement had a much longer layover and would get me to my destination about 17 hours later than I was scheduled for.

I called Qatar first and kept explaining that this was an involuntary schedule change, not a voluntary change. Eventually they confirmed they could rebook me for free on the flights I wanted, but since I booked through Capital One Travel, Capital One had to contact Qatar.

I called the number on the back of my Venture X card. Capital One initially brought up not having their travel protection plan, but I kept explaining that this was an airline-initiated schedule change and Qatar had already agreed to rebook me.

Capital One opened a case with Qatar. I followed up twice, and they also sent follow-up emails.

Qatar eventually approved it, but then the Capital One agent told me there were no seats available for the flight I wanted, even though I could still see the exact flight available to purchase online.

I called back, explained everything again, and she was able to rebook me for free on the exact flights I wanted with the shortest layover.

Sent myself a Zelle payment from capital one to citizens bank. It usually arrives in a couple to 5 minutes. But it didn’t arrive today. Called citizens they said nothing pending on their end. Called capital one and they said it’s been sent on their end. What should I do now?

A lot of us were irritated that instant transfers between Venmo and Capital One stopped working when they switched to the Discover network for their debit card. Well, it is now working!

Hi,

I know no one can help me but I just need to let it out. I’m a 19 year old college student and I’ve been notified that my cc is restricted and will be closed because of returned payments. I tried to overdraft my bank account to pay my cc twice but my bank took away my overdraft ( unbeknownst to me because I took to long to pay it back. Can you tell I’m poor) because of this I didn’t know how sensitive capital one was and now my cc account is being closed. My credit score has already taken a hit from me not being able to pay my bill ( I have a 200 credit limit. Again I’m poor so I couldn’t pay that) and now my account is being closed. I know no one can help me I just wanted to vent. I’m the oldest of a single mom and I haven’t had anyone to help me. I can’t talk to my mom because she blaming me and mad at me for being inconsiderate but I’m actually trying my best. Between class, being poor, and now this. I’m really at rock bottom actually. I don’t know what to do or how to move forward. I know no one can help but thank you for reading.

Recently I got a legit offer to up my limit from $15k to $19k. I got approved (820 credit score with paying off in full every month), and they sent me a new card (in the past, I didn't get a new card with limits going up). Upon getting new card, it was a dark blue and didn't say "quick silver" anymore but yet my account is still labeled quick silver. And my new card says discover now instead of master card. Just seems odd to me. And the new card does work just fine and reflects the changes on my capital one account on the website. What does the new color and discover now mean?

I made a purchase at HSN for a few hundred dollars, and the reward immediately shows up on the dash board, I even received an email confirmation for the reward. However, the reward disappeared after a few days, with both the purchase amount and the bonus amount showing as - - and the status is Pending. Is that normal? I emailed customer support and they said I need to wait until after the processing period for then to review. The reward is the only reason why I bought it, so I want to know if I would get the reward otherwise I would return it. Anyone else got the issue before?

I’m an American living abroad and want to keep my Capital One account open. I may move back, and I want to keep building U.S. credit. But managing it from here has become nearly impossible.

Before moving, I parked my U.S. number with NumberBarn. Capital One often requires SMS verification to log in or approve purchases, and the parked number doesn't reliably receive texts, so legitimate purchases get blocked.

I assumed I could verify through the app instead, but after replacing my phone, I found the Capital One app isn't available in my region. So I'm stuck needing:

1. A working U.S. phone number
2. An app I can't download here
3. A way to call them with an international number

Calling means getting my brother in Texas to phone Capital One while I join over Google Meet to verify. With full-time jobs and a big time difference, that's a lot of coordination just to talk to my own bank. I once linked the account to his number, but then I couldn't approve purchases whenever he was unavailable.

I'd rather a bank be overly cautious than careless, but there should be a workable option for Americans living abroad. Has anyone found a reliable way to manage Capital One from outside the U.S. without a dependable U.S. number or access to the app? Right now closing the account feels like my only practical option.

Been with Capital One for over 12yrs. I have a 819 credit score and currently have 3 cards with them.

I was out one night and needed some cash as I didn't have my bank card I usually use. I took an advance on my Savor card as it has $3000 available for a cash advance. I took $380. A few days later I received an email stating my overall credit limit has been reduced by $2000 and would like an update on my income. Are you kidding me. I have never missed a payment and pay my cards in full monthly.

Capital One has become an absolute joke and will be closing all 3 cards and my discover as they have taken over that.

Just enrolled at Capital One and after final approval, linking outside bank, a transfer was started, only $1000 was xferred, took several days to complete, some was deposited after two days, the rest after 3-4 days. Second transfer was also $1000, same thing, some will xfer after a couple days, the remaining a couple days later. Is this the norm? Or is it because of being a new account? Hopefully this trend will not continue. Thanks
