Does it really take 7-10 business days from when I apply to get my Capital One credit card?

Question

For people who applied for a Capital One credit card, got approved, and it said 7-10 days until you get the card/info in the mail...did it take all 7-10 days?

Answer 1

If they sent you the promotion to get a card, you would get approved in less than 7 days (after they received the application back).   If you chose them, out of the blue, to apply for a credit card, it might take 1 month for them to contact you.

What would you like your credit limit to be?   If you asked for $40,000 they would send you to the guy who approves the "big spenders".

Answer 2

I'm amazed at these questions. Yes it can take 7-10 days for you to get your card. What's the big deal? Just be patient.

Answer 3

That seems about right. It's very quick if you ask me.

Answer 4

Sometimes longer. You may not see it at all. I was told I was approved and it would take 7-10 days to get the card. Only all I got in 10 days was a letter saying they reviewed my credit application once more and decided that I was a risk because I didn't have at least 50,000 in my savings account. They aren't wanting to give credit to anyone these days. I guess they have so much money that they don't need me as a client.

But, it really does take that long. You can get it next day, overnight if you pay $25 to get it shipped that way. Of course, you can only dot hat if you haven't already had it sent.

Good luck.
