Capital One Executive Office - no response to my emails

I sent the Capital One EO a very nice email two days ago, requesting CLI's on both of my cards. I have yet to receive a response. Should I just call them instead?  Here's the email I sent:
Hello Capital One! I've been with the Capital One family for about 10 months now. I appreciate the company extending credit to me, and use both of my Capital One cards on a regular basis. I have several other credit cards that I can use, but I prefer to purchase with my Capital One card when I can because of the great cash back no-hassle rewards.  I started with a Platinum card, and a couple of months later applied for a Quicksilver One card. Recently I have upgraded my Platinum card into a Quicksilver One card, so I'm earning cash back with both now- something I'm very happy about.  The only trouble I have with my cards are their very low limits. I started both cards in the Credit Steps program, and both limits are only $500. I have to make several large payments every month to keep my credit under the limit, and I have to be very careful about staying below 30% utilization before my statements generate. Honestly it's a bit of a pain to make sure I have enough available credit, and I pay the bill often enough to keep my balances low.  I am respectfully requesting to have my card limits raised to $2000 each. This will allow me to charge the amounts I need, without having to make several payments every month.  I would greatly appreciate a followup to this email. I can be reached via phone at xxx-xxx-xxxx

    Spoke w/EO office..they said to continue montior ...they said i should be approved because I'm a good customer and make plenty of payments. They said that it could take
    more than 2-3 days...so i'm thinking after my next statementThat's good to hear.  I reread your posts and it seems from a FICO standpoint we are in the same basic area. I do have one score, Equifax, nearing 660 (it's at 658), and it seems as if that threshold is of some signficance.  But I plan to try your approach and see what happens. I'll say this about Fico in general:  while I'm not whining nor feeling sorry for myself, I honestly truly don't think it reflects me or my risk profile.  I had credit from 1992 to 2008 without so much as a 30 day late the entire time.  Completely clean tradelines on credit cards and car loans.  The world fell apart in 2008 and I lost a huge amount of salary, fell way behind on bills and took money out of my retirement plans to try to stave off bankruptcy.  In retrospect, I should have declated bankruptcy then and I'd be free and clear today, but I thought I was doing the 'right thing' and I was dead wrong.  
    But now I'm in this situation having gone nearly four years without a major late (one 30 day late about 20 months ago).  So from 2008 to 2012 things were really bad...four years out of a 22 year credit history when the world was ina  horrible recessiion and I was caught up in at at the wrong stage of life. But my scores are still horrible and likely will be for some time.  I'm hoping this direct approach will allow a creditor to see that my body of work, while hardly perfect ,is not one of a guy who spends recklessly or walks out on his bills.  To the contrary, one fo the reasons I'm so far behind still was taht I didn't want to screw my creditors and think it's important to pay back everything I owe, which I have now with the exception of the tax lien. Rant over.

  • Capital one EO office number change.

    Tried calling today because I have an issue with a CLI that they were working on. I dialed the number 1-800-955-1455 that CreditAddict posted and it worked a few days ago. Today it goes to the call center.

Today it goes to the call center. Mentioned in a few other threads, including the limit combination one. The EO number here has been overused and has now been assigned to regular CSR.  Seems that's the case with FB reps as well. Just that they type a bit better.

  • Capital One EO CLI!!!

    So I recently got my Cap One QS card with a $500 limit. Initially upon opening I had to send verification of address and SSN. Well I was approved with pretty much bad credit including bk7 from 2010 and other silly collections. So after about a month I requested a CLI with EO office and no sucess and was told to try back in a few months I am in the credit step program.  So I tried again online last week and they said they will review so I immediatley called the EO office and was told that it was denied because of too many inquiries...and all the other negative things. But I told the woman the form online said they tried to contact me I guess I had an alert. So I was advised to take the fraud alert off my report which I called and did and called them back for a manual review.  After three days I went online and seen they had a request for proof of income verification I had put $126k. I sent paystubs from one job, a letter from the other and bank statment showing total deposits...blah blah blah.... soooooooo just a minute ago I decided to double check my cap one account and I was hoping I'd fall out of my chair since I felt like chances were good since they requested additional information.  AND GUESS WHAT!!!! BAM $ 1500. LOL it may not seem like much to some but it sure was for me since that card was over limit (dont ask or judge).  So I am super excited now! and thats my story lol.

    Thing is majority of the people skip the CSR and go right to the EO. The reason we shame it is because the executive office is for serious matters such as identity theft, wrong credit reporting information, fraud charges or account closure issues. It's not for getting a $500 on a platinum card. Ever notice the majority of people using EO is for a ridiculous CLI of no more than $1-2k? This is going to lead to the EO shutting down numbers and emails for people who actually need it.  I think of it like this. Would you skip over your manager and their manager and go straight to your CEO to ask for a raise? Probably hell no.Yes, I understand the point being made, however, consider the following: - myFICO is a small sample size of the MILLIONS of people who have access to the EO. We often convince ourselves on this forum that we're evidence of trends - but we're not. Reason being is...- we're also self-selecting. These is a particularly aggressive, educated group of consumers - not Joe Blow. Half the CSRs don't know what strategies are commonplace here.- you very well may also be hearing about the CLI contact more often than its actual frequency as compared to other issues (highly likely, in fact)- if the EO truly had no interest in ever dealing with CLI...they just wouldn't. The precedent for credo card companies telling us to shove off is pretty tangible.  Just try try to keep in mind - as I've said on other topics - the world of credit is almost entirely YMMV. Seems very arrogant to me that some myFICO forum folks have decided they know all the "rules," when the rules in most cases are just unwritten policies that change as the wind blows. The EO email and number is not publicly available. Is it on their Cap 1 site under contact us? No. When you Google "Capital One Executive Office" this site is the first hit. This site is also linked in FlyerTalk Forums and Reddit. These sites can reach globally. So please, see the bigger picture than the same 10 people who post in threads. And this site is notorious for assisting in getting things stopped or shut down. The Duck card, the Discover CLI, the Cap 1 EO and a few others. I know people won't stop using it for a useless CLI on a card but that means I can't stop posting my distaste for it. I'm not going to argue with you. You're entitled to your opinion - regardess of if I agree or not - but I'm just trying to point out the other side. This is a great site for information, and you're right: it's very informative and influences are fair number of people. However, your very argument is ironically a precise example of what I'm saying: you think what happens on this site is exclusively responsible for those issues. Seems arrogant to me. Agree to disagreePlease read again. I said this site assists. I did not say "exclusively" as you suggested. If you're going to make an argument, don't falsify what I say when it's in plain text.

  • So Excited!! Capital One response to GW letter!

    Yay! Doing the a little nervous but happy dance! I wrote a GW letter to Capital one about a week ago and they just called me today! I can't believe the quick response after what I have read on here. Capital One is notorious for denying GW letters or totally ignoring them. I spoke with a very polite woman that asked me a bunch of questions, including what happened to cause me to get behind in my payments. I told her my story and she created a report and stated that she would send it and my original letter to her executive office and I should hear back from them in 2 days! So excited! I am happy no matter the outcome because this is the first GW letter I have ever gotten a response too. My Cap One is a newer account so if this gets deleted I should see a nice bump up in my Fico scores  Just can't believe it, GW letter really do work! Thanks so much for your help and all the contact information everyone, you are all the BEST!

    Well they called back and said my request was denied But I am not giving up, I even told the agent I spoke with to expect to hear from me again in about 30 days to see if they will reconsider their decision. GW campaign continues........

  • Product Upgrade & Credit Limit Increase with Capital One

    Upgraded my Platinum Master Cards, I have two, to a QuickSiver Rewards an requested a credit limit increase online only received 500.00 so I sent an email to the Executive Office.  I waited two days received no responce so I called today this is what happened.  Spoke to a gentleman who said he would be my personal credit specialist today I told him that I had upgraded the cards for the rewards and the Visa signiture benefits and requested to increase the limits to 5,000.00 on each.  He told me that I had just been given a credit limit increase and he could do nothing for me.  After getting no were he offered to let me speak to his suppervisor.  Spoke to the suppervisor and ended the call with the same results, she will have someone else call me within 10 days.  My question is this the norm has this happened to others.  The number I called was one I found here in the forum.  I have had both cards for over 6 years and have always paid them on time just never used them much because of the low limits.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.

You need to wait 1-2 weeks, not days. They have to assist a large number of customers and they are not as big a team as the customer service people. My Cap One card started as a Plat with $500 limit a little more than 2 years ago and now it is at $8k and upgraded to a QuickSilver. Also as others mentioned, you can use the new "Combine cards" tool to combine your multiple small limit cards to a larger, more useful limit.

  • Justice Credit Card-Capital One

    I'm in the process of closing this card.  Will make payment at the end of the month and have a zero balance and close it.  When it switched over to Capital One last month, pushed the luv button to see if I could get a CLI.  Was told to contact number listed in email sent.  Called number.  Spoke with CSR who stated that initiating request could possibly result in hard pull.  I have a Kohl's card, which is Cap 1 too,  and told the same thing, but never has resulted in HP.  Well this time it did.  Was given a HP on EQ and did not get the increase.  Sent email to EO office about how ridiculous it is to get an HP on a store card.  Spoke with someone from the office who said that could she not remove the HP, but could initiate a manual review for a CLI.  Told her why would I want that when it wasn't as if I was getting a bank card.  Discussed how this could discourage people from getting the card.  Just letting the forum know that this change over from Comenity is not turning out to be positive. 

    Yes.  It has the option on the website to request a CLI, so I pushed the button, and got a response that they would send a reply by email.  Then I got an email saying I needed to call in and from there it went downhill.  It is ridiculous because it' not like it's Nordstrom's or Neiman Marcus.  It's Justice for goodness sakes.  Kohl's does SP for CLI and it is Capital One, but not this card.  Anyway, it will be paid off and I'll be done with it. 

  • Another Capital One Increase...This time an increase of 4K!

    Background: I opened my Capital One Quicksilver One card in February of this year with a SL of $500 and requested an increase in April. I was automatically approved for a $1,000 increase.  Fast foward to last Saturday night (7/11/15) I decided to try for another CLI because I was nearly maxing out every month on my $1,500 credit line. I needed the ability to make more purchases as well as keep my utilization down. I applied online and received the 2 -3 business day notice. So Monday (7/13) I e-mailed the EO stating my request, my desired increase ($4,000), and reasoning for that desired increase. Yesterday (7/15) I received a call from a very nice woman from the executive office. She asked me a few questions, verified some information, and told me she would be sending my request to the underwriters. She said I would hear something back in 7-10 business days. This morning (7/16) I logged into my account and my credit limit is now $5,500! I am beyond happy with the quality of customer service and the quick turnaround. I'm also enrolled in the credit steps program.  I am due for an automatic incease after my 5th payment. I just made my 5th payment a few days ago and my statement closes tomorrow! I'm curious to see if I'll get that increase as well. I would assume yes, but I'll have to wait and see.  Extra info: I pay my high balances down every month leaving about 1 to 2% utilization reporting on my card.In my EO letter I mentioned that a $5,500 credit limit would match my Discover It credit line (just started reporting)

    I am glad you posted this - I'm sorry they said no, but this will help ease the perception that EO is a magic wand and you'll call them and get a CLI! Generally with Capital One it's 6 months between increases - EO or not. That's just their policy. There are exceptions but usually requesting before then is a waste of time.

  • CONTACT INFORMATION FOR EXECUTIVE OFFICE OR HEADQUARTERS

    Hello,
    I have tried to acquire a contact information for the executive office through phone calls and online chats, and no one will provide it to me.
    When I voice my complains, I'm told I'll get a callback from a manager, and I never get one.
    I can't find any contact methods on your site.
    Isn't there any consumer protection acts requiring you to provide this information when requested? It's very unprofessional behaviour from Sony's part, and I'm very disapointed in a brand I love to use when they provide such poor support and customer service.
    Can you post, if not on your site, at least in this thread, the method I can send my complains to the executive office or headquarters?
    I'm extremely disatisfied with Sony, and may end my lifelong loyalty to you if I don't get the results I feel are acceptable.

    As indicated in my post, it's complaints.
    I don't even get to speak with a manager. I'm told one will call me back, and I never get a callback.
    I understand there are different reasons to communicate with a company, but the executive office is supposed to be available for contact, via phone, email or mail when requested by a customer. I may be wrong, but I think it's the law here in Canada, and in the USA.
    If I ask to speak with the executive office, it could be regarding any of those, and it's not something that requries specific channels. I deal with an executive office agent, who takes the responsibility to handle my complaint and forward it to the proper channels for resolution. Once the resolution has been reported back to them as completed, it's then their responsibility to get back in touch with the customer to confirm the resolution has been completed and is satisfactory.
    Every single company I've dealt with, and worked for has this line of communication.
    Bell, Rogers, Telus, Hydro One, Hydro Ottawa, Embridge, Walmart, Canada Post, Mastercard, Visa...and the list can go on and on.
    If I don't get contacted by the executive office, my next step will be to bring this to the ombudsman and better business bureau.

  • Capital One World Elite....

    So i notified an EO via email ...  I had been a customer for such long time and believe it's time for an upgrade. If i could upgrade my Capitol One Platinum MasterCard to World Elite MasterCard i would greatly appreciate it very much. Thank you   Best regards,  Got a call the next day from the ''Executive office'' (really just their assistant calling) mumbling about how my card doesn't offer after using it for 4 years with a credit limit pass $5,000. Told me that maybe i want to look online for their other ''products.'' I jusaid yeah okay.... mmm hmmmm and hung up.    The next day got an email...      Your new credit card is on its way
    Your new credit card was mailed today. Thanks for being a Capital One® customer.
       ... wonder what they're sending me

Barclay wanted to change my Rewards to Arrival + which is a World Elite Mastercard earnong 2% as the GM Buy Power Card but has an annual fee so i was trying to get Captiol One to change my Platinum to World Elite instead and leave Barlay alone. Otherwise, Citi Double Cash said i can change World MasterCard to Elite when my INTRO APR ends but has foreign transaction fee. That's why i was trying to get my captiol one to world elite and just use that abroad instead. No annal fee. no transaction fee. I had 2 captiol one and just combined them into one and cancel out the other. So getting another capital one would not make much sense. Especially if i cancel out my longer standing and very first credit card... though i hear it stays on your report for 10 years ? 

  • Capital One Venture

    So I got approved for a Venture One about 4 months ago for $5k and CLI to $7k at 3 months.I have been applying for a Venture Card for about the last 3 months and the Capital One system always auto denies it saying that I have a pending application already (like doesn't even process the application and does not pull credit)I had spoke with Executive office over a month ago and they offered to manual review the application but I declined and just tried to wait out 30 days and apply again because I feel like these computer approvals are better.Well finally about a week ago after applying again and after instantly declining (not processing) I called and asked it be manual reviewed.I just received a piece of mail that says:Cograts, you should receive your card in 5-7 days.Approved for $10,000!

    dagsKY wrote:
    Too late for me  My app with Venture was on 6/28/2015. Does this still mean I can get another card? I don't care about the pull since my inquiries are disgusting and I just want some prime cards.check pre-qual... if you get offer you can get another now... otherwise I would wait until your card is 30 days old.

  • Capital One Quicksilver MC upgraded to World MC!!!

    So, while I waste away in the garden, I've been looking for things to occupy myself. I decided to attempt an upgrade of my (Platinum) Quicksilver MasterCard (originally just a regular Platinum) to a World MasterCard.  I emailed the executive office two weeks ago about upgrading my card to a World MasterCard, but I didn't hear anything back until about two days ago (I thought my email had been ignored!). I got a call from a friendly rep at the EO confirming my wish to upgrade to a World MasterCard. She said she didn't seen an upgrade on her end, but that she would submit it to a team that specializes in account reviews for upgrades. Well, the same rep called me back yesterday confirming that my account could be upgraded to a World MasterCard and that my new card is in the mail!  I love Capital One!!!! I really do, God help me.

  • Capital One Luv or no Luv???

    I have two capital one regular platinum cards. The CL are $1400 and $2000. Utilization is 50% no missed payments.  I recv'd minor ($300) increases on both cards back in March 2015. I hit the love button last week (3 months out) and was denied. Although I've been reading to wait 6 months with Cap1, I've been a member since 2004 and rarely had any increases. I know this was primarily due to high utilization (over 70% on all accounts) but said what the hell and called the EO to ask for manual review for CLI. The rep told me she would upgrade my cards to Quicksilver cards but said she submitted the manual request for increases and I would receive a letter in the mail in 7 - 10 days. I mumbled, "so I am denied, right?" and the rep said, "no it REALLY is under submission." Is that just EO jibberish for denial, or has anyone had luck w/ cap1 CLI after getting 7 - 10 day letter talk from EO??

    My experience with Cap One has been great.  I've contacted the EO once and got an increase within 2 days.  Funny thing is that I have NEVER received a letter informing me of that increase, I just kept going into my account and noticed the new CL.  They do send your file to a credit analyst for a review.  I was given the 7 to 10 day window for a response.  It definitely doesn't take that long.   I've had great luck with CLI with Cap.One.  I keep my utilization between 15 to 22% and I pay them at least twice a month.  Good Luck!
