Capital One Credit Card Complaint

Credit line increase/decrease

Capital One Credit card department,

Credit line increase/decrease Illinois

I have a CapitalOne - Credit Card. I have had the credit card account for 11 years. I have never been late on the account and payoff the balance each months. I use the account frequently because of the cash back feature. I recently requested a credit line increase and was notified that the request was denied based on " Your financial obligations reported to us by the credit reporting agency are too high ''. I contacted CapitalOne at their customer service number and the agent told me that she could not provided any additional information on the denial. I asked her who could and she said she could transfer me to a supervisor which I requested she do. She transferred the call to - - ID # -. I spoke to - and he told me that the decision was based on the credit bureau and could not provide me with any additional information. I asked to talk to someone who could provide additional information and he informed me that he was as high as I could go as far as speaking with someone. I asked to speak to someone in their compliance/complaint department and he said that was not possible. He said he would make notes of our conversation and they would be reviewed. He reiterated that the decision was based on the credit bureau. Having credit underwriting experience, I told him that the decision is made by the credit grantor and all the credit bureau did was report a personal credit history and outstanding debt. I said I wanted to talk to someone and have the opportunity to provide detailed income and asset information. He said that was not possible unless CapitalOne requested it from me. I feel that I 'm being discriminated for a credit line increase because I pay my account in full each month and CapitalOne has never made any interest income from me. In addition they have paid several hundred dollars in cash back rebates to me over the years.
