Consumer Narrative
I recently applied to a Capital One XXXX XXXX credit card. I received a letter that I was denied due to active credit limits, which makes absolutely no sense. I have a XXXX credit score, have not applied to any credit cards recently. I'm below the thresholds for inquiries, so there is no reason to deny. I am planning on traveling and I believed Capital One XXXX is the right choice for myself. I have credit cards with them for Business and as a loyal customer to be treated unfairly and unjust with no negative reporting on my report and a high credit score is outrageous and seems discriminatory. I tried calling reconsideration line asking for explanations and a reconsideration even by moving balances around if that is what was required and they were absolutely no help and said to reapply again. This is very unethical on their side. Why would I reapply when that will count as another hard inquiry and they can reconsider. I would be happy with the credit card for its travel perks and wanted to be reconsidered. But this makes me lose faith in this bank for treating me unfairly. I demand a response and a resolution. Thank you.
