Beating Capital One’s Credit Limit Reporting Disposition?
From everything that I’ve ever read to my own personal experience, Capital One does not report your credit limit to any of the three credit bureaus. That said, I know that FICO’s score algorithm substitutes your highest recorded balance in for your credit limit in the absence of it being reported. My question is this: Will finding an item equivalent in cost to your real credit limit, charging it to your card, and then returning it immediately correct credit reports to reflect the true credit limit?
For example, let’s imagine that I have a credit limit of $10,000 and I purchase a huge, flat-screen plasma television for $9,000, and return it the next day and thus have the $9,000 credited to my account, will this set it straight in my credit reports? Thanks!
