I just paid off our Capital One card w/ the MBNA this week because Hubby wanted to limited the number of payments outgoing and because the interest rates are the same 9.9. I couldn't much argue. Now my question is has anyone ever known Capital One to offer any deal's for less than 9.9% Cherie
I thought I saw a while back someone who mentioned they had sent a pre approval for an 8.9% fixed rate "No-hassle" Platinum card. You might try calling them up and saying you got the pre approval in the mail and want to see what they could do for you.
Yeah, it was one of the two. I'm pretty sure it was 8.9%. I'll search back through some of the past posts and see what I find.

Ok, here's the scoop. I just got off the phone with an account manager, and I tried the ole' trick "I got an offer from you for the Platinum card at 9.9%" but it didn't work. The lady did admit they are offering 8.9% on some platinum accounts, and also to those who have a good standing with them. She said to try back in a couple months and I should be able to get at least the 9.9% rate. Oh well, I tried.
Good thing you didn't mention that you don't turn 18 for another 7 months -- else you'd qualify for the "Sorry, We're Canceling Your Card" rate, lol. Doc
