I have a total of four cards with them and got them all within a short period of time of 10 months, of course I use all my cards and do a good medium level spending on them and as soon as any balance post, I immediately pay it so I don’t even wait for the statement balance as a means of making the payment I typically can actually get the reported balance to always be zero in the credit report each month even though I’m constantly using the card because of the aggressive nature of how I pay them.

Just got approved today. I was actually offered this card multiple times. And being pre-approved is not a guarantee I actually got denied the first one. I applied today once again and got approved for $500!. I am happy for it as I wanna have this card for a long time and am already happy to have it despite having a low limit. I got the downgraded version of it. There's no welcome bonus nor Uber one 1 year benefits that I have on the card that I was pre-approved and applied as I currently don't have job and I'm 20 yo. I currently have all capital one cards. Platinum/quicksilver/walmart and lastly this savorone. All of them are $0 annual fee which helps a lot. And hoping to age them all good and just go on from there. 😊

That rule you mentioned about approving cards when you have gotten more than one card within 6 months wasn’t true for me. I stayed in good standing with my quicksilver card and spent 2-3 times my limit(payed it off multiple times a month) and applied for a credit increase after 3 months they tripled my limit(from 1k to 3k) and then I applied for the savor one and was approved for 5k limit immediately!

Thanks to your video, now I feel more confident about getting the SavorOne, not to mention that the info about the conversion of cash back to miles which is extraordinary. I'll get the Savor first for my travels abroad, and then after a year or so, get the VentureOne Rewards (no annual fee) to start converting the cumulative cash back from SavorOne. Thanks!

@JacobsPointsAndProfit 8 ай бұрын

I think the Savor One pairs perfectly with the Venture X. I love having both cards. $0 annual fee cards always make sense to get as long as you’re ok using up a Chase 5/24 slot and this card could eventually take the place of the AMEX Gold if you no longer want to pay the annual fee. The Citi Premier and Custom Cash are solid too but again 5/24 is something to think about if you care about it
