Bigger bonuses. Then once it's time to renew, you downgrade to a no annual fee card.

No matter whatever card you get from them, Cap One is wasted credit inquiries. They like to pull ALL three bureaus. Most other cards only pull one. Nothing Cap One offers is worth 3 inquires on your reports.
Cancel after one year. So effectively a $650 bonus.
Show me a no annual fee card with a ~$650 bonus... I'll wait.

Quote from saghey :
I've booked flights on the travel site. The selection is about par what you see on Google flights. I do only see Spirit, Frontier, Delta, AA and United flights and their prices match the price on the other travel sites. They also do price protection if you book a flight when they suggest you to do it and if the price drops within a week, then they'll credit you the difference. I got back $30 for one flight.

Donthey have international flights?

820 credit score, 6 figure salary, no debt and they denied me. Only CC ever to decline me
Wells Fargo does the same thing, those banks are smarter now, their decisions are mostly based on if they can get money from you eventually, not your high credit score.

What's an easy way to spend $4000 on purchases in 3 months? Would it make sense to pay my mortgage with the card or would the fees for paying by credit card negate any benefits?

Assuming you can pay a mortgage that way at all- which is not common- it's unlikely the fees would be anywhere near the value of the signup bonus.

That said you're always better off doing non-feed, but not unnecessary, spend if possible.

Some folks will do things like pre-pay utilities, car insurance, etc in advance to hit minimum spends as one example of a way to only spend on things you'd be spending on eventually anyway and potentially without fees to do it.

Exactly this. Been going back and forth with them since November when my flight was canceled after boarding due to plane malfunction. Capital One Travel booked it through KLM and the flight was operated by Virgin. They all blame each other meanwhile I'm the one who hasn't been refunded and was stuck paying 10x for a last minute replacement flight.

Can't you use any travel/airlines website, then pay with points later for that travel purchase, instead of buying through Capital One?

Quote from Jon2288 :
I ended up reviewing this offer of the Elevated venture x card compared to the chase sapphire preferred one (60k pts $550 annual fee, $300 travel credit and 50% more on travel points for chase vs CapOne 75k pts, $395 annual, $300 travel and no bonus outside 10x regular).

Ended up going with chase due to the overall value of being able to transfer points to partners at increased exchange rates (similar to amex, chase has mote partners than capone's 11 total) and the rate of redemption (points guy values) are what swayed me. 75k point offer is very good though in its own right.

Do you know that you get 2x points for everyday purchase on C1 venture X ….right? That by itself beats the 1.5times point redemption value of CSR.
And chase portal for travel is pathetic in flight selection. C1 portal offers tickets and price better than Expedia

No… not as efficient? The redemption value of points for travel purchase out of the portal seems less value than purchase through portal.
And you get 5X points for each dollar spent for travel purchases through the portal

You sound like a commercial. I'll take your word for it now that I made the wrong choice. Will see when I use it for the next year.

Next time I will do C1 as chase has a 4 yr exclusion rule for promotions (used to be 2 yrs).

Enjoy your card!

Does anyone know how this works - "Use your miles to get reimbursed for any travel purchase"

Planning to buy a flight ticket next month, if I get approved for this card
