Capital One Classic Card - Approved?

Hi All.

I have just applied for a Capital One classic credit card by following a link on my mobile. I completed the form on my phone and it came up I had been approved at the first stage???

It then said they would send me a credit agreement out which I would have to sign and return and they would then send my card out with details of my credit limit?

Is this not a bit strange, do they normally not tell you your limit there and then? I have had bad credit in the past particularily woth Capital One (Over 5 years ago) but does this mean I have definately been approved?

Thanks in advance :)

    It maybe because you did it on your mobile their form does not work, if done on the pc would of been fine
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.
