medinaj06 15 Posted September 20, 2013 Ive seen that most people arent having luck being approved for credit cards, well I applied to CapitolOne.com for their Classic Platinum card thinking I wouldnt get approved but they appoved me within a mater of 1-2 min... $300 limit to start with, and no it isnt one of those cards you have to put your own money into! I called Social Security before I applied because everywhere I applied they could not verify my identity, Social security told me I had to fill out the application the same way as your name appears on ur SS card, (for ex. If your last name is Rodriquez Garcia you put both in the last name box). Good luck hope yall can get approved too!! 3 Tori, God_why_m3 and Dreamer3oh3 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tori 38 Posted September 22, 2013 Great to hear! It's always good to check out what your bank has to offer for credit cards. Bank of America hooked me up with their student cc offering with 0% interest for the first year and $1,000 credit line to begin with. 1 medinaj06 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
medinaj06 15 Posted September 22, 2013 Thanks! Yea my bank wouldnt approve me so I applied with capital one, most people dont know they have to use both last names since we've never had to use out maternal last name...lol Congrats! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dreamer3oh3 40 Posted September 22, 2013 I wonder why we get that "can't not verify identity" bcuz I tried getting a paypal cc and I also got the same answer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
medinaj06 15 Posted September 23, 2013 Not sure did u use both last name for the last name portion? I think thats why they hadnt been able to verify me, soon as I put both in there I got approved, I got a paypal card too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
