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

Yes, it's definitely in the writing . Sorry to hear this happened. What's your limit again, $5k i requested mine mine the next day after hitting the luv button and going to $5,750. I say say keep trying until you get the right rep.will keep trying!!..... Whom do I have the pleasure of chatting with today? My credit limit has reached $5,750 and would appreciate it if i can have a World Elite MasterCard put on my Capitol One card. thank you I apologize, there is no option to change a Platinum card to world elite Master card. Okay thank you You need to apply for World Elite MasterCard separately.So, when do you app for the GM Buy Power card ? 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 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.

CitiBank Credit Card Nightmare - Please go back to Capital One

I am ready to cancel my best buy credit card. On December 27, 2013, there was fraud on my account (I believe from the Target breach from black friday sales). Anyways, there was fraud and my card was canceled. However, I didn't find this out until 3 days later when my card wouldn't work anywhere between the 27th and 30th. My card was canceled and I never received a text message, email, phone call, or letter. NOTHING. I wouldn't know unless I called to find out what was going on. I asked if this was normal and they said yes - no communication.
Once I called them, they said they would issue me a new card (this wasn't automatically done). They could not expedite it. I did have to confirm everything that was fraudulent on the card. Fortunately there was only 1 charge that posted and all other attempts were blocked. Still, that one fraudulent charge has not been removed. I have called multiple times and told different things about when that charge would be removed. Now I'm told to wait 6 weeks for it to be removed. That's six weeks from today, not from when the charge appeared.
Before the card was canceled, I scheduled an online payment for the due date. I called them to confirm that the payment would still go through even though a new card was issued and I couldn't access all of my online account. They told me not to worry, it will post. The day after my due date I get an email saying my payment couldn't be processed and now I'm past due (with a late fee). I called and made a new payment over the phone and was told due to their error, the late fee would be waived and I wouldn't see it in a couple days. 5 days later I finally get my new card in the mail, re-register my account online, and low and behold, the fee is there. I call back and was told that the late fee removal was never processed. I was told to wait 6 more weeks for the fraudulent charge to be removed (even though the charge took place in california, and I have account activity to prove I was in NY state at the same time, and they agreed). They now say they will process the late fee reversal, but to wait 2 billing cycles. As far as I'm concerned, that charge is them stealing from me because I should never have been charged that in the first place.
This experience with citibank is disgusting. I have never had this kind of trouble with any credit card. I have had fraud on my accounts in the past, and every time Capital One has been awesome to work with - they pick up fraud faster and better, they email/text/call you right away, and they have done what they say they will. Sure, others may have different experiences, but when every single citi agent has let me down and most have lied to me, I'm very angry with them. This is the last year I have elite membership with best buy. If this isn't fixed in a week, the account is getting closed. Are others having nightmares with Citibank?

Hello darkprime,
Finding out that your credit card may have been used by someone other than yourself is a very scary thing. It sounds like Citibank has tried to keep your account safe by immediately cancelling your card, but I can understand your concern at not receiving a notification from them as soon as this occurred. I’m very sorry to read of how difficult it has been to resolve the various issues resulting from having your card cancelled.
As you’re probably aware, while Citibank is a valued partner, they are a completely separate company from Best Buy. Due to this, we do not have direct access to or influence over their accounts or policies. However, we truly appreciate your loyalty as an Elite Plus customer, and I would be happy to reach out to them on your behalf to look into this right away. Using the e-mail you registered on the forum, I was able to locate your information, and as soon as I have more details, I will be sending you a private message. To read your private messages, please make sure you are logged into the forum, and click on the envelope icon in the top right corner.
Thank you for posting here on the forum, and I will be in contact as soon as possible.

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.

My experience with Credit Line Increase at Capital One

Just thought i'd share my experience (and contribute for the forum) to help those who seek to increase their credit line. This is just my experience but it seems to work. A month ago i applied for and got two new credit cards after 16 years of NO credit card useage and not so good credit. I made sure to pay off all debts including student loans and colections accounts prior to applying. First credit card was a Credit One card with a $300 limit. I have since cancelled them since the low limit did nothing for me. I also got a Capital One Quiksilver One with a $3000 limit. During the month of owning this card i: -Charge EVERYTHING on my credit card. Made very frequent charges. I charged everything from a $1 coke at the vending machine to my $2700 rent. Credit card companies have high charges for merchants, this is one of the main ways they make money. They will love you if you pay everything with their credit card so long you make your payments in full.-Once you run your balance up as high as your comfortable doing, make a payment even if it's not month end. Do not go exactly to or over your credit limit!-Make frequent payments. I made 4 or 5 payments within my first month of having my new credit card. $2700 charge, payment posted. $400 in random charges, payment posted. $250 in random charges, payment posted. Within 3 weeks of me owning my Capital One Quicksilver One, they tripled my credit line from $3000 to $9000. Whoohoo! That's all. Enjoy your credit card in good health and with good creditworthness.

Capital One 5 day hold on payments.

I was using my capital one card like normal running somewhat of high balances and then paying them right off. I always pay on time and I always pay before the statement closing date. However, paying the card off in full before the statement closing date seems to trigger some sort of hold for five days. I'll be calling to get the hold removed as soon as the ACH payment shows up on my bank account.
The reason I always pay in full before the statement closing date is because I don't want Capital One to report a 100% credit utilization for the month to the credit bureaus.
So now you can see how a five day hold would throw a wrench into my plans.
Here's the thing though. Once I scheduled the payment, Capital One's accounts show 0 balance on the card, but a 0 available funds on the card as well, while its in this 5 day hold limbo.
Well, here comes the statement closing date, on a *Monday (see edit). So what the heck is going to be reported to the credit bureaus?
Will it be a 100% credit utilization? Will it be 0% credit utilization?
Either way, it's not good. I would be better off paying a lower amount to see if there was a chance that it would be processed in a timely manner.
However, I can't do that during the 5 day hold. I can only do that once the 5 day hold is over.
If the payment hasn't been processed then I can only assume that they will report a credit utilization percentage of 100 percent. Like I spent.
What do you think? I'll be waiting as the weekend passes. Then, I'll call in on Monday; the day of the statement closing date. I might be able to get the hold released, push the payment through by the end of day. And then I will have a low balance reported to the credit bureaus. I'll have all A's on my credit score. edit: a mistake was made earlier in this post. the statement closing date is actually on a Sunday. So it's too late to try to push a payment through now. It's going to report as it was on that day.
UPDATE: It's Monday. I woke up at 6am and everything worked out perfectly. Capital one was happy to release the funds it took all of 5 minutes, and now I'm back to a card with a full balance.
UPDATE 2: 12:00 PM on Monday, the statement came in. It went just about as perfectly as possible. I'm all set with Capital One and my statement, everything is paid, and it correctly reported to the agency. Under 10% of my limit with full credit availability. I got an A.

^ (Gasp) I can't have that happen to me. I can't have them report a 98% (105% in my case) utilization ratio! It mustn't. I have no other cards. This is my only card. It's just a platinum. The limit was just increased to 500 dollars. I never had any returned payments until they did the 5 day hold. You really don't know where the money is because everything is always pending.Are you waiting until the statement closing date to time your payment, or only few days ahead of statement closing, and making that one payment per month? That's a knife edge you are dealing with. On a $500 card, I'm all for maxing that puppy out and then PIF by the payment due date, but that presumes one stops using the card before the limit. If you are using this as your main spend vehicle, that is fine. You need to pay it more often. When you get to $250, set up an immediate payment on Capital One's site to pull the $250 from your bank account. That will take a few days to clear, meanwhile you continue to charge on the card. When you have charged another $250 of spend on the card, log on and schedule another payment to pull from your bank account. Alternatively, on Saturday, look at what is in your Capital One Open Balance, and schedule a payment to pull from your bank account to pay it on Monday. Let those balances report, whatever they are. You may think a $500 statement balance is a Bad Thing? It is not. Over the course of time, when you show that you can report those kinds of balances and PIF, then you will start to get better cards, to give yourself breathing room. And +1 to the comments that you can't allow these payments to be returned. Ever. When you commit to a payment going to your credit card, you no longer have those funds available in your checking account. As another alternative, open a checking account at Capital One. This will provide the instant payment from your checking to your credit card that you want to see. Good luck!

I cannot access common web site like Paypal. I get an "Untrusted Connection" screen. I have accessed Paypal in the past. This also happens with Capital One.

Just in the past week, when I try to access many web sites, including PayPal and Capital One, I get a Untrusted Connection screen and it prevents me from entering these sites.

hello ra12rick, first please make sure that the date, time & timezone are set correctly on your system. if this doesn't solve the issue (or it is already set properly), a possible solution depends on different factors:
* what is the '''error code''' shown under ''technical details'' on the error page?
in case the error code equals ''sec_error_unknown_issuer'', please attempt to add an exception on the bottom of the error page & inspect the certificate (see the screenshot attached for instructions):
* which '''issuer information''' does the certificate contain?
thank you!

Basic things needed to connect JDE One World XE B7333 SP17 to XI?

Hello....
Can anyone tell me the basic things needed to connect JDE One World XE B7333 SP17 to XI?
Hve anyone done this scenario before?
--Pramod.

Hi Pramod
I have not worked on any scenario between JD Edwards and XI, but SAP has a list of adapters provided by iWay software, one of which is used to connect to JDE One World XE. The good thing about this adapter is that, you do not require a separate runtime.
You can get more info about the adapter from SAP Market place under,
SAP Exchange Infrastructure --> SAP XI in Detail --> Connectivity --> Connectivity SAP XI 3.0 --> iWay.
hope it helps

Rebuilding help- need tips for Capital One Accounts

Hi- Thank you all for all the wonderful information, you make rebuilding seem so easy and attainable! I never realized all the different versions of scoring, how to do debt validation, get errors removed from my report and where to focus my attention. Just 2 months ago my scores ranged between 556-580, today they range from 600-611 so little improvement over the last couple months. Here is the situation I am in. I have 3 capital one cards, 2 of which are platinums with $500 limits and 1 is the old Orchard Bank card w/$300 limit. These cards are 6-8 years old. I also have a Fingerhut account w/a $1650 limit, totalling $2950 in credit of which $640 is in use so utilization should be about 22% (making a little more headway on this util each month). I have been 100% ontime w/Fingerhut for the last 2 years. 100% on time w/my auto loan for the last 36 months and almost always on time w/Capital one except for 3 months Sept-Nov in 2014 where I went over my balances and accrued over limit charges that brought my minimum payments up. Technically I was still on time but the $50 a month per card I was giving them wasn't enough for the min payment. I was in a tight situation at the time, they reported those 3 months as late for all 3 cards. I went years before this paying 100% on time every month but always carrying a high balance so they never increased my limits earlier even though payment history was good. Now that my utilization is down and its been 8 months since the Capital one dings, I applied for CLI's on these cards and received letters denying the increases as they said tehse late payments are too recent. I read that a lot of people have success w/CLI's after about 6 months. I've called twice to see if they would good will any of those late payments, I was shot down immediately the first time, the 2nd time I had a nice woman but she wouldn't budge either, she politely told me she went back and looked at those statements and I was indeed not meeting the minimum payments & the only thing she could do was to mail me hard copies of those statements. I really only have 1 major collection on file thats affecting my score for a little over $1000 w/a CA that I've never heard from via phone or mail yet they are accruing charges each month. It showed up in my file late in 2014 for a card that went delinquent on about 2.5 yrs ago. I haven't decided how to handle this collection just yet, PIF right now is not an option for me so before I figure out how I want to approach this I thought I'd try to make some headway w/Capital one first on my limits andutilization. Does anyone have any recommendations? I've lowered my utilization while still using the cards frequently, just paying down more and paying on time but am getting nowhere on goodwills or CLI's and persistence is not my strong suit. Do you recoomend I wait until I have a full 12 months of on time payments before I try again? I did prequal for the QS card but am afraid if I submit, I'll only get rejected for the same "recent late payments" that they rejected my CLI requests for even though they are going on 9 months old.... Does anyone have luck w/a new Cap 1 card while not having luck w/CLI's? Should I try for another card, Anybody get accepted for Barclays card w/low 600's score? I only have 4 inquiries on my file right now. 1 is old, should drop off next month, the other 3 were recent apps for a rental property, no inquiries from credit cards in 2 yrs. Thanks in advance for any advice!!!

Once you get nine months out from the last late payment on the account (not just a reported 30, but service charge late) they will allow a CLI if your scores are high enough.

Yeah, Cap One is pretty strict with their reporting. I really only have 1 major collection on file thats affecting my score for a little over $1000 w/a CA that I've never heard from via phone or mail yet they are accruing charges each month.

Does anyone have any recommendations? Is the OC also reporting that delinquency? If so are they showing an unpaid balance? With Cap One, they like to see heavy usage, and low reported balances. Keep requesting CLI's online until you get some joy - you just need to get far enough away from those lates. I've lowered my utilization while still using the cards frequently, just paying down more and paying on time but am getting nowhere on goodwills or CLI's and persistence is not my strong suit. Do you recoomend I wait until I have a full 12 months of on time payments before I try again? I did prequal for the QS card but am afraid if I submit, I'll only get rejected for the same "recent late payments" that they rejected my CLI requests for even though they are going on 9 months old.... Keep trying every month - use the online link for it, don't call them. Don't worry about CLI denials, they won't be held against you in any way. JUst keep plugging away and check the denial reasons. I was getting the same thing all last year until Jan when I sarted getting "score reasons", then they tripled my limits in Feb. Does anyone have luck w/a new Cap 1 card while not having luck w/CLI's? Should I try for another card, Anybody get accepted for Barclays card w/low 600's score? I only have 4 inquiries on my file right now. 1 is old, should drop off next month, the other 3 were recent apps for a rental property, no inquiries from credit cards in 2 yrs. Thanks in advance for any advice!!! Right now you would only qualify for the "average credit" level Cap One cards, and they are an auto-deny for having two or more cap one accounts already. (its stated in the disclosures), so do not app for any more Cap One cards until scores are in the high 600's - then app for the "excellent credit" cards. Since you have a long history with the cards, you might try Barclays (I was approved for Barclays with 618 TU score), but wait until your last 30 day late is over 12 months old.You're actually doing fine, just need to move out a bit from those lates that occurred last year. You might also call and get them converted to QS/QS1 reward cards.

Capital One official sponsors of my sock drawer.

So I have this cobranded cap1 card (union plus card). Over 18mo old with the same crappy 1k limit. Tried for a cli a while back no go. Denied because of a "lack of experience with current CL" LMAO with a 18k Amex and 8.5k discover I found it rather amusing. Ever since the luv button stated a required HP, since I was in the mortgage process I never bothered. Closed on my house last Friday, I figure what the heck,
I'll give it a go. Tried for 4000 probably should have went higher...congratulations new limit 1200. $200 for a HP, you have to be kidding me, can't wait to see what BS the 7-10 day letter says.
Back to the drawer, I'll use it for a new pair of socks in 6mo.
Can't they be honest with their reasons. I know it gets very little use but with a 1k limit and 19% APR why would it. Where's the competition.

Finally received the 7-10 day explanation letter. I asked for 4k the letter basically states that $200 is "the most they can offer". Wow this takes conservative to a whole new level. $200 after over a year of having this acct, just think in ten years a could have a 3k limit.
I'm thinking it may not have been a HP after all, as the letter didn't include a CS or the free report option. So that's good. Just wish I had a more useful limit. I'll try again soon and see what happens.If it wasn't a hard pull, then go onto Capital One's site and apply for Venture and Quicksilver - same day should be one set of pulls (no guarantees here)

Capital one venture restriction

Yeah, CAP 1 has been doing that for a while. They do it mostly when your charge declines in the store also. I was on edge once in a long line and the card decline at check out. When I called, they thought it was fraud and I had to hang up for them to call me back.Wow... this is surprising to hear. In my case Capital One has never even flinched, even when they have the right to. I've shopped at a grocery store at 2AM at a store hundreds of miles away from my billing address, and I actually expected to have to call them but it worked - just like it always does. I also recently made my an international purchase over the internet for the first time with my Capital One card; I chatted with them to let them know I was about to make the purchase, and the CSR acted confused as to why I was even bringing it up. The int'l charge was approved, and I've used my card for small overseas purchases several times since then, all without calling and each time it's been approved. USAA, on the other hand... is a different story. I really, really like them, but for better or worse, their security is a bit more tight. Actually, my Capital One card is my go-to if there is ever an issue with my USAA account, since I'm usually not in the mood to call the bank when I'm at the register if I have another card I know will work.

Capital One Platinum?

I have just begun my credit rebuilding journey. About a month ago, I applied for a secured card from my bank and was approved for $300 minimum. I sent them the $300, and read that CapOne is pretty lenient with approving secured cards, so I applied with them as well. I got approved and had to send them the deposit. I talked my grandparents into adding me as an AU on a credit card with a $9k limit and $0 balance that they've had since 1987. That AU alone bumped my scores 20+ points on EX and EQ. TU had the wrong address for me, so it didn't pick up on the AU but I sent them a letter requesting change of address. Anyway, with my scores slightly higher, I was feelin' froggy and I had been reading that CapOne QS1 is pretty relaxed with their approvals. I thought I most likely would not get approved if I applied but it was worth a shot. I applied yesterday and got the "7-10 day" message. I read on the forums that if you get this message, its not an approval or denial, and to call the BD number the following day to ask them if they needed any more info. I called them today and to my surprise, the account specialist told me I was approved for $300 (better than nothing, and I was ectstatic to finally have a real card) and to expect the card within 7-10 days. Now my question is, I've been reading some people had better luck with CapOne Platinum but denied a CapOne QS1. Since I've already got the QS1, what are the chances I could get approved for a Platinum? And if I do it today, would it still be with the 3 HPs from yesterday? I'd like to be able to get both of those unsecured, keep my CapOne secured, and either close or keep my bank secured card. Not sure what the best option is. Thanks in advance.

First congratulations!! Second, I wouldn't go for the Platinum right now, because it seems sometimes when you start out with Capital One's sub-prime cards, they get stuck at low credit limits and won't grow. Give yourself some more time, use the cards you have over the next few months, and before you know it, you'll get approved for better cards.
