happylady's review: 
This is a great card for people starting to rebuild their credit. I received an offer for this card in the mail after having my secured Visa with Bank of America for 4 months. I was approved for this Capital One card with $300 credit line. My FICO score was around 550 (not exact). I love the Capital One online management feature - it helps me to make sure I make my payments on time. I haven't talked to any one in their customer service department yet because I do everything online and haven't had any problems yet.

Congrats on the new card. Do let thelow limit discourage you. They gave me that same limit back in December. I am up to $1000. They are very good if you are starting out or starting over.

I have had this card for 4 months and started with a limit of 300$. My limit is now at 1,100$ Just make your payments on time and they'll take care of you.

Stay with this card. It will open doors to many other cards. I really like my Capital One cards so I don't think I'll ever get rid of them. They have been very good to me and I'm sure they'll be good with you! Good luck.

Cap 1 isn't a bad company to partner with. Just like with most any other issuer, if you treat them right, they'll return the favor.
Enjoy! :)

This is the best card to start off with when rebuilding credit. Like everyone in here says, they will not rip your pockets off like most cards do. You made the best move when you applied for this card. Be good to them and they will show you love.
