One of the chronic pains of being a Capital One credit card customer is that your credit score can suffer even if you pay your bills on time every time. The reason? Capital One has a long-time policy of NOT reporting your credit limit to credit reporting agencies. What it did is to report your actual credit usage as a proxy of your credit limit. How will this affect you? Even if you only tap into a small percentage of your credit limit, you will be seen by credit reporting agencies as using up all your credit lines (in Capital One cards), and that is certainly not good to your credit score.

Long-term readers of PFBlog knows I have been taking advantage of credit card companies for years. Especially, I'm very good at 0% APR arbitrage, whereby I sign up for new credit cards with attached introductory 0% APR balance transfer offer, move the entire balance immediately to my bank account, and enjoy the high saving account rates of 5% or more while remitting only the monthly minimal payment back to the credit card company. Of course, this strategy will drag down your credit score. Last summer, especially, I applied five cards in two months' time, and my credit score tanked from 720s to 640s, and I was essentially denied new credit application after being seen a credit risk by most banks. But credit score is only of cosmetic value if you don't need credit any time soon. To me, after all, I have no better use of my credit score now that I'm sitting on a portfolio of over $800k and has no plan to buy a property any time soon. The below chart is a great summary of what happened in the last dozen months: READ FULL POST ...

I think not. These cards became popular many years ago because they allowed budget travelers to earn frequent flyer miles from everyday purchases like groceries and oil changes. But airline frequent flyer miles have become increasingly difficult to use as a budget travel tool. Many of us like to shop multiple airlines for a good deal, pay for those bargains in cash, and then use travel rewards to book hotels or car rentals.
