Adequate review but, in my judgment, not quite complete. You should have addressed the quirkiness of the C1 approval process, which other sites have done. I am one of the victims of that quirkiness. I have applied for a card 4 times (3 C1 Venture and 1 C1 X). I was rejected all 4 times, although, in the spirit of full disclosure, I was offered a secured credit card. Having the 3 major credit scores at 800+, I considered that to be a blatant insult. In any event, there will be no more rejections for me as I have written off C1 forever. In hindsight, I am not sure why I applied in the first place as its travel partners are actually underwhelming (except possibly for those travel experts who can use the miles of one airline to book a flight on another airline and actually fly on yet another airline). I am not that facile. Two final points. First, everyone seems to be nonplused by C1’s nasty habit of hard pulling on all 3 of the major credit agencies. Well, in my last application, I got a FOURTH pull on some agency I never heard of. The last disaster in my fourth rejection was that it showed an Experian score that was 69 points below my actual score. With AMEX, Chase, Citi, Barclays, etc. available, who needs an issuer with unconscionable approval (rejection) policies.
