Can I get this card, pay the annual fee, get the 100k points, transfer points to an airline, and then cancel? If so, what's the catch. Seems like they are giving $900 away? I am confused.

Wanted to provide data point for what you can use the points for. My wife and I each got 100k sign up bonus from venture X about a year ago. Then I also got 3x 25k points for referrals to my friends and coworkers.

I ended up transferring the capital one points to Singapore airline and redeemed it for a round trip business class flight from LA to Bangkok for 180k point. The flight was about $4k if you pay with cash. So I got about 2.2 cent value. That's probably one of the the best value. Otherwise there are also other travel partners. Of course this is very YMMV but there are good value redemptions out there. Other people might prefer to stretch their points for more trips on economy.

And make $5000 in purchases. It's a pretty standard play, but with a moderately better bonus than usual.

Venture is good for the bonus, but the biggest value is Venture X is if you do international travel. 10k pts + $300 travel credit every year covers the $395 AF, then the Global Entry reimbursement and Priority Pass is gravy. There are a few other side perks I haven't used yet (museum memb). 10X points on hotels is nice, but their prices in the US are way over sites like Booking - I just booked hotels in Philly and NYC and the CapOne prices were about 20% over the ones offered in my Booking account. I've had better luck with CapOne prices in UK/EU.

As for point value, I don't consider expensive F/C as a valid "value." It's nice, don't get me wrong, but if you wouldn't regularly shell out $4k+ in cash for a ticket it's like claiming you made $5000/hr just for sitting through a 2 hour timeshare sales pitch because you bought a unit and used their $10k off voucher. If you regularly do fly top tier FC at full price, however, then it really is worth that redemption and I apologize. ;-)

I'd take $1000 in Amazon/TGT GCs. Easy enough.

Cap1 will price match other booking sites if you call. It's a little more work, but I've never had them deny it.

That's not true, person referring gets 15k but the person referred full gets 60k.

Is the 80k promo over now? I got it back in March.

Hey I called and was told that the initial sign on bonus is locked into the terms and conditions. I escalated to a supervisor and tried everything, including how chase sapphire was willing to extend an additional 20k bonus that I had missed for applying too early. But no luck, Cap One said what's done is done.
i tried the same and go the same response Frown

Do they pro rate the unused portion of the anual fee if you cancel the card after receiving the bonus?

Heard it's hard to get approved with CapitalOne and they run all 3 credit reports.

It's not, but maybe they are a bit of an unknown as far as their decision criteria? Capitol one is one of the first unsecured cards people coming back from bankruptcy are often able to get.

TSA precheck is a manufactured solution to a manufactured problem. This is yet another way to extort hard earned $$$ from travelers that are already poor as-is.
