It stinks because it was my first card - I got it when I was 18 - and the closing of the account will affect my credit score and I'm in the process of looking for a house.
Might be a good idea to make a call if you've got a Capital One card you haven't used for a while. |
Interesting.
I just went to BrandsMart a couple of weeks ago and purchased a fridge, using their "Same as cash" that I love so much, as my money is put aside, earning interest while I pay them none.
When I went to pay with their credit card, I found out it had been closed for inactivity of 1 year, not even 2 as in your case.
I had to open a new one but it was well worth it for the 12 month same as cash promo.
