I've had CC's with them for 10 years and never had a single problem. They get a gold star in my book. Anytime I've had to call them they bent over backwards to help me. Fantastic customer service. Every time I've asked for a credit increase, I always got it. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

They market to people with less than great credit. Typically they offer them multiple cards instead of giving increases to get them into a cycle of payments. All I will say is after trying to get payoffs for their own refinances and how bad they were to deal with I will never be a customer. The President is a fink. |

Gandler Member since: Aug 15, 2019 Threads: 27 Posts: 4256 | It looks like when congress reconvenes there will be a new phase of stimulus in the works. Possibly monthly stimulus check for several months or the rest of the year. (possibly 2k). Possibly increased pay (up to 25k a year) to essential workers including healthcare workers and grocery workers. And, a possibly a 15k bonus for people willing to go into an essential position such healthcare worker or grocery story worker. If these pass, it could make working at a grocery store one of the most profitable entry level jobs of 2020. |

Thank God. We are already spending more money than we have or will ever reasonably be able to collect from the tax paying public. Once again, it shows the difference between fiscally reasonable Republicans (few remain) and give it all away for free Democrats. |

So do lots of CC's. CO markets to everybody. What's in your wallet. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I have 5 Cap One cards. My wife has Chase and twice they have reduced her available credit for no reason. She has hardly any balance and a 790 credit rating. CapOne has never reduced my credit, ever. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Thank you Shrek. I think the long term consequences of our government, both our Repub and Dem representatives, now seeing that they can just have the Fed make up more money at a whim, will be worse than all other effects from this virus. Lets say conservatively we will be 25 trillion in debt next year. We are buffered now by historically low interest rates. If even at 2%, that's a half TRILLION dollars in interest alone! Just the interest alone is around $4k per year per job holding taxpayer. If also paying a meager 1/50 of the principal (that's LESS than you pay on your usual 30 year mortgage), that becomes around a total of $8k per taxpayer. That doesn't include any of the things we generally think of our taxes to be used for, like the military, infrastructure, healthcare for the poor and aged, FDA, EPA, UN, WHO (oops... maybe not!), etc.... I can only say this so many times ..... what bunch of idiots decided to give my 30 year old son, working from home at full pay, with his expenses drastically reduced, an EXTRA $1,200 because, well, he exists? |
