credit4me's review: 
I applied for this card 03/08 and received instant online approval. Received card in 6 days. CL 300, apr 17.30, 0% until 08/08. Truecredit scores are: TU 584, EX 547, EQ 607. Pulled credit from all 3. Several collections/chargeoffs from 4 years ago- all paid.

Congrats on your capital one card approval this card will help you fix your credit score.
But you did the right thing in applying.
Stay with this card for a year and check your score.
Im sure you will see your FICO higher as long as you are never late.
I have capital one and there great.
Take care,
Alex

When I said to stay for a year I meant in a year check your score.
Because I know you will like Capital One.

Good Job!! on 2008-04-12
Keep this Capital One card for at least 2 years and if you can charge something inexpensive each month and pay it off each month. All 3 bureaus will report your points each month as "Paid As Agreed" which will boost your credit scores. The key is to show/demonstrate an excellent payment history and you should be fine. Keep up the good work... Rockin35

Congratulations!! on 2008-04-12
Treat this card well. Capital 1 can either be your best friend, or your worst enemy. Capital 1 was a great starter card for me.
