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.

Anyone know if I can use the points to book travel and have the $ still count towards the $300 credit or does it have to be cash money travel expense to get the credit.

Quote from tygron :

I'll assume you are genuinely asking. The best answer is because you get MORE value for money you were ALREADY going to spend throughout the year.

There are calculators out there for every major rewards/travel card, plug in your spending and see what the card is worth to you.

HTH



Keep in mind the $300 credit is ONLY for travel purchases made THROUGH Capital One Travel. And if it's anything like Chase's rules, you don't earn points on the $300 they credit back, but you would on any amount over $300.

That's why I love my CSR, $300 back on very loosely defined travel makes it much easier to use the credit. Even though I buy tickets almost exclusively through Chase Ultimate Rewards portal anyway.

The problem with Amex for me is that I usually meet my spend quotas by paying insurance bills. My insurance companies don't accept Amex. The only Amex card I carry is a Wells Fargo card and that's just for the included cell phone insurance. My cell phone bill is the only thing I pay for with that card.
if your insurance accepts paypal (like progressive), pay using paypal with amex as the primary card in paypal.

Book travel through CapitalOne travel portal using cash, get the $300 credit and cover the purchase using your points after it's posted.

It's never occurred to me that I could pay my insurance bill with PayPal. Wouldn't the ins co still have to pay the same higher amex fees (and likely balk at doing so)?

Earn 5X miles on hotels and rental cars booked through Capital One Travel, where you'll get Capital One's best prices on thousands of trip options. This makes me hesitant- why another booking platform - CO travel… making it so not flexible at all.

They decline for having too many credit cards in total, not just how many card you opened in last few years irrespective of credit score. I have decided to close all my accounts with capital one. Stupid bank.

Just used my new Venture card on my Taiwan trip and it was exquisite! Basically got a free roundtrip ticket from LAX, no foreign transaction fees, free TSA precheck for 5 years and ended it all with a sweet premium lounge at Taiwan airport (free buffet, entrees, shower and hi speed wifi). What more could I cardholder ask for?

Pretty sure will get denied but lets take a chance LOL....

people are also forgetting you're getting 2x per $1, so 4K spend will get you $80 ponts - $95 fee, still coming ahead with $735
