Changes to Capital One ( May be what you have been waiting for )

So as some of you know policy changed so classic users could apply for a progress.

Well today i went on site and clicked progress, click and world card and they ALL have a new thing to apply if you are already a customer. So it looks as though you can now apply for them whilst already a customer where as it used to only be the progress we could get whilst having classic.

The only one that it doesn't let you get whilst a customer seems to be the Classic as it's so basic.

As an aside, Capital One have now got an iPhone app where you can manage your account whilst out and about :-)

I assume they still do a credit check?

And I just had a look at their application form and one of the questions is "How would you rate your own credit history". I wonder what they'll use that for? If you think it's "perfect" but they only think it's "OK", would your over-estimation count against you, for example. Never seen this question before.

Yes they do but i think if you already have an account with them thats in good order thats a massive bonus in your favor

:embarasse I recently applied for the 'balance' transfer card from Cap 1 and was accepted, however, I now have my card with only a £200 availability, so obviously do not have the card I applied for and cannot find the 'name' 'type' of card that I actually have? Can anyone help please.
