$250 travel credit has to be spent through their terrible portal, which is just a Hopper re-skin and routes reservations through 3rd parties (my last was an Expedia reservation). Most costs for the portal are higher than if you have an account with 3rd party sites like Booking, Agoda, or Priceline and CapOne will NOT match a logged-in price. There is no telephone customer service for booking.
Pros: Eno vendor specific CC numbers with number cancellation and holds are great for online signups
2 points per dollar spent and direct reimb. for travel using points at 1pt=1c is essentially a 2% cash back card if you travel
No foreign tx fees (for those who travel internationally)
If you travel a little, it's a good card. If you travel more than 3-4 times a year, especially if your preferred airport has a CapOne lounge, the VentureX is a better product to have ($395AF), but this is a good stop gap with a solid bonus.

Also, any news on a similar bonus being added to new Venture X applicants? ie extra $250 credit...thinking it's just a matter of time before that goes live too? TIA
2. Nobody knows but it's rare. I remember they had 100k pts with 10k spend within 6months. if you really want the VX you can wait.
The only catch is that their new account bonus may not be as high as this card. If I remember correctly, they only offer 75000 miles after 4k spending, without the 250$ credit. I guess this card is only better than X for the first year, assuming priority pass means nothing to you.
you don't even need to call them.. just transfer the rewards, pay your balance and close the account
one thing i had to do was check all the merchants from statements where auto pay was set and all the virtual card numbers that I had been using.. didn't realize it added up to 50s in a year

but 75k miles is equivalent to $375
cash/statement credit redemption = 1:0.5 cent
travel redemption (flight/rental car etc) = 1:1 cent
