    Both are great cards. I chose the Venture because I have the AMEX trifecta and simply just wanted a good backup card when AMEX isn’t accepted.
    I went with the Venture because I don’t want to book travel thru their portal and instead book directly with my Platinum so the $300 credit has no benefit to me. You can’t go wrong with either card in my opinion

      First of all, I like where your head is at! These sign up bonuses are NICE! People have certainly gotten both the Venture AND the Venture X sign up bonuses... I can't really comment on whether you'd be approved or not... but the general rule of thumb for Cap1 is to wait 6 months between card applications. I'd certainly be interested to hear how it works out for you though!

I want to have a plan for the card before I apply because right now flights go on my Amex gold and hotels go on my altitude connect. Only thing I don't like about venture X is it forces you to use the portal. I book southwest a lot, which I can't book in the portal, and I book a hotel through the portal I won't get hotel points.

    Question for the welcome points:
    If I buy something via my venture x card (example, a $4000 sofa from Costco) and get 75k points and end up returning that item after 1 year, what would happen to those welome bonus 75k points?

    • @joshua.butler
      @joshua.butler  Рік тому +1

      That's a good question. There's a decent chance nothing would happen to the sign up bonus, but IMO it's not worth the risk. There's potential for them to rescind the offer, close your account and/or blacklist you.

      @@adannaya1 I am reading that some people see the tracker and some people don't. It's possible that it just hasn't showed up yet for you as it seems like it may take a few days to a week, or it may only show up after you use the card for the first time. It's odd to me that the rep couldn't confirm which sign-up bonus is tied to your card. I'd personally call back and talk to a different rep to confirm.

      @Everything Is Satisfryan and another important note. You technically wouldn't be getting it twice. While they're currently the same, they are two different sign up bonuses. Capital One typically doesn't let people get more than one sign up bonus per card.
