Note: to all those people commenting this is a paid endorsement, no it is not. In general, we wouldn’t recommend this card to those playing the credit card points and miles game. However, from first impressions, it is a lot better than Credit One’s other cards and may be acceptable for someone just starting out, building credit or as a product change option if you have another credit one card.

Ok I've had a Credit One card for 3 years. ALWAYS paid my balance in full therefore I never had any issues & my scores increased. A form of credit & having enough for a credit utilization ratio is crucial in building credit, take the offer if you get it & be responsible with it. The apr doesn't even matter when you're not carrying over balances geez.

Most likely American Express told Credit One that if you want to use our good name on a credit card then you have to have these MINIMUM STANDARDS. Most likely Credit One wanted to offer an American Express card and these benefits of the Card was definitely insisted upon by American Express or American Express probably said if you do NOT offer these MINIMUM standards then we American Express will NOT give you license to use our name and our payment network I bet Visa and MasterCard did NOT have such standards.

That’s actually not true. Credit One had their logo and branding 2 years before Capital One came out with something that looks almost identical. So it’s actually Capital One that copied Credit One

I've had this card for a little over 2 months now. The only thing I don't like is that it takes a little long to process a payment. Luckily I pay my cards off as soon as I charge anything on them as I am also rebuilding my credit. I don't mind paying the $39 annual fee since it is an AMEX. I just wonder if, as I continue to grow and rebuild my credit - if AMEX will eventually consider me for one of their cards. Has anyone been able to find this out? Lmk.

[@RC-SATX]

@Shawn S Thanks for your comment. I've had this card for a while now and haven't seen an increase. I've been offered other cards through Credit One but I'm not too crazy about them as a bank. On the other hand I've had great success with Petal and JPM Chase and have obtained over 6k in credit. Some banks are just more about getting you there and others are about keeping you in a controlled corner is what I've learned. I have been paying off the AMEX every month because that's how I understand AMEX to work, but you're right. That is irrelevant here. Thank you for your suggestions and helpful advise.

What credit limit did they give u

[@RC-SATX]

@@tequisaholloway1738This card is not that great. They started me at $500 and I'm still at $500. I've gotten higher increases on other cards. I'm actually about to pay off the balance and cancel it.

Wonder how they handle CLIs. And if there are any product change options. Otherwise it seems like a dead end card with no future-proof capability. If I could increase the CLI with a soft pull on a regular basis, then this MIGHT be something to add to my for life cards. Or if I could product change to a more useful card (if they even exist with this bank). But if I can do neither of these, then there's really nothing interesting here.
