I am SO glad that this is a series, especially with an episode for the Venture X (I love my Venture X haha). I didn't expect this video to come out so quickly after I commented about it on your Amex Plat video! Keep up the great work, I love this kind of content LOL
@@LukesPointsandMiles Ah yes, the “effective -5 annual fee” protectionless card that requires you to stay at a barbershop hotel for 5 nights? Redeeming 1:2 for a hotel that might have a dead rat in the corner of the bathroom and a gloryhole sounds like great value
This was hilarious Uncle Luke!!! I know its roasting but I think with all of the roasts have have a sprinkling of truth in them. Keep them coming. C1 VX has its faults for sure but it is a good card for families. My credit is too good to be a C1 customer so they only want me to have the C1 Platinum and Secured cards LOL.
Super 8 with the Convicts 😂😂😂 You know it’s a roast, but this type of video is super needed I think. It takes the edge off of folks who really get so uptight about their favorite cards - we need more comedy in the Credit Game! Yes I actually didn’t know that Capital One doesn’t prorate the annual fee, pretty wild actually, and I haven’t really heard that at all other than you and Chad. This was funny Luke, keep them going!!
This is fun man. If you’re getting heat for the credit card roast vids, it’s worth remembering: people default to the literal. Irony is way hard even when it’s obvious. I’m sure Springsteen feels this every time he’s sung Born In The USA for the last 40 years.
Great video Luke!! Absolutely loved it. And this coming from a Venture X fanboy. I upgraded a Venture to a Venture X with no bonus because it actually costs me less. The $300 spend isn't difficult to hit, and if you do it on Delta (probably others), you still earn your Delta miles and your status carries through, as I was upgraded based on status. Sure, it cost me 5% on that $300, but not a big deal. I recently transferred 120K Cap 1 points to Flying Blue as part of a trip when I got almost 6cpp, so this card earns me money. My wife just got one as well as the 75K SUB will certainly go towards a future trip. 2% catch-all cards to me are underrated, with mine, when I'm not earning a SUB, go towards car insurance, electric, gas, water, trash, and every mundane spend you can think of. I earn more points @ 2% than I do at 5% on flights.
I have the capital one quick silver and they refuse to give me a credit line increase. There excuse is theres not enough activity on the card. However they keep trying to offer me that savor one card. I wont close the card because it's my oldest card lol
I can grok your POV. I have the classic 2x miles on everything Venture $95 AF card. If I traveled more than I do these days I would accept a product upgrade if they offered it. But I have no plans to apply for it outright. Other than their lounges at IAD and Denver and international partner's lounges, there's few extra benefits with X that justify the extra $300. It's still 2x points on my everyday purchases...meh!
Yes I would upgrade. As long as you travel at least like once a year. If you don’t travel at all. I don’t think I’d even keep the venture. But BX is worth it as long as you can book something in the portal once a year
Luke, your video convinced me to take the 30% transfer bonus and move all my points to Virgin. C1 offers transfer bonuses like once every eclipse. I know that they won’t give me a S1 Card so I don’t want to stay in the ecosystem. I’ll get a CSR since I fly out of NYC.
I was thinking about your upcoming Amex Gold video. With Resy popping up in the refreshed Delta cards, Gold seems like the perfect place to add a Resy credit. Maybe $15 a month to help justify a fee increase. What do you think?
4:00 You might be on to something Uncle Luke 🤔 Spirit Airlines might actually be a great transfer partner for Capital One to add. Also, I love these takedown videos! Please add the Built Mastercard to the roster! 😂
@@LukesPointsandMiles Absolutely! Peekaboo signup bonus, weak travel category and multiplier, annoying verification process during application, weird fascination with soul cycle, hot and cold rent day rewards, and Wells Fargo just to name a few lol
Uncle Luke, favor... can you log in into C1 VX Priority Pass and Plaza Premium and check the lounge in Manila airports terminal 3 and 1? does it show Marhaba lounge at T3? Paggs at T1 or T3? thanks again
Nice Roast on Cap1VX Luke! 😁😁 I do prefer to have certain perks taken away and keep the AF of $395 as long as possible. Once Priority Pass Restaurant perk is taken away from CSR, at least all three members: Amex Plat, Cap1VX & CSR will have pretty much the same Priority Pass perks. Which of these three will raise the AF first?
Hey Luke , really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with Best Quality Editing in your videos which visually appeal to audience and would increase average view duration and will also make a highly engaging Thumbnail which will overall help your videos to reach to a wider audience ? Pls let me know what do you think ?
Super easy for me to use the credit. Needed a decent hotel for a football game, easy redemption on the portal and same price as booking it direct. I only get this card every few years for the welcome bonus. I will say if you aren’t finding great bookings on air Canada you’ve gotta look harder. Lufthansa, ANA all there at great rates.
I'm currently having disaster with Air Canada. 81k miles stolen via known security hole. I'm fighting with them for more than two months to get them back, still missing 9k. Customer service is even worse than C1, it's absolutely useless.
AU on personal cards do not actually count towards 5/24. They may initially see them but when you call recon you can clear that up. And no employee cards don’t count either. Neither are facially responsible for the card
You forgot to mention, most of you won't get approved for the duo. If you're lucky, they'll approve you for one card and leave you high and dry on the 2nd half of the duo.
😂... well, I enjoyed it. Also you're probably right that they'll just have 3 lounges for the next 4 years. Especially since they haven't announced new locations and it took them so long to finish IAD and DEN...
“You can stay with the convicts and ne’er-do-wells” 😂😂 That line got me. I enjoyed the video, keep up the great work
Thanks for watching!!!
The eclipse is not the only thing bringing darkness today. Don’t make me hate my favorite card, Uncle Luke! I can’t bring myself to pay the AMEX fees.
Hahaha it’s a fine card !
"I'm not flying to Canada." 🤣🤣🤣
This was great! Love the roast 👏🏾
Thank you sir!
Super 8 and the convicts…..😂 This was great! I love the VX but so much validity in your roast!
I love the card as well! It was fun to roast!
The points made here are funny because they're true 🤣👀
I agree. No lies told. But you know I still love the card
That moment when Luke posts “Roast the AmEx Centurion card”…
but the video doesn’t start with the roast disclaimer 😂😩
Haah. I’ll be honest, I don’t even know my about that card! I’ll never have it.
I am SO glad that this is a series, especially with an episode for the Venture X (I love my Venture X haha). I didn't expect this video to come out so quickly after I commented about it on your Amex Plat video! Keep up the great work, I love this kind of content LOL

Just went to the lounge in DFW yesterday. The lounge was pretty nice! Here’s my $395 😂
That lounge is the best!

Sprinkles? I detect no lies! But yes it’s a great card for sure!!
These roasts have all been on point. Good stuff, Luke. 😂😂
Thanks for watching!!

Well, at least you know which card will leave the lights on for ya, just like Motel 6. 😂
I am really liking these videos!!
Thanks for watching!!
Ah come on, Uncle Luke! That peanut medley is criminally underrated
Especially when all of Adam’s kids stick their hands in it
Haha awesome video! Legit laugh out loud at the Super 8 joke 😂
I have to admit I don’t think I’ve ever stayed at a super 8

💯 it’s a super solid travel card
I suggest you to use Wyndham business for utilities, or USB Cash+. Yes, I do use for insurance sometimes.
I almost didnt click on this thinking this was silly, glad I did.
Damn Luke, whats next on your hit list? Chase Sapphire Preferred or American Express Gold?
Maybe Altitude Reserve.
@@LukesPointsandMilesThis I would love to see actually haha. Would be good now since there’s still a good amount of hype for it I think.
@@LukesPointsandMilesOh lawd it’s cooking hahaha, record it!
This series is hilarious!
Thanks for watching!
The best roast is the one about not getting the card cuz your credit is too good...so fkn true
Cap1 wants some interest payers!!
Lol I like the Venture X, but a lot of this is the truth. I'm hoping the Venture X can get better by Capital One adding more lounges
Vegas is next and then I think they’re done.
I have the capital one quick silver and they refuse to give me a credit line increase. There excuse is theres not enough activity on the card. However they keep trying to offer me that savor one card. I wont close the card because it's my oldest card lol
I would suggest getting that savor 1 card. It’s a great one
These are great videos! 💯💯💯
Appreciate the kind words
One of the first funny things I realized about this card....
VX ... NERVE GAS,!;😂😂😂
Ha!

I have a lot of virgin points that have sat for a long time. Hopefully you find a way to redeem them so they don’t sit around!
LOL, great roast. Keep up the great videos.
Thank you sir!
the hotel partners portion of this is facts tho lmaoo
Tough to dispute that.
You really can't cancel the card after the annual fee hits? Is that right? If so, I may need to get on the phone soon.
From what I understand the fee is not waived just by canceling the card. I haven’t tested it.
I like the venture X but I like these videos more 😂
🤣
Great job on RUclips ❤
Thank you, Vickie!
Thank you for the disclaimer. I’m stupid af with good credit now lmao
Even with the disclaimer, these videos lead the league with thumbs down 👎
I was thinking about your upcoming Amex Gold video. With Resy popping up in the refreshed Delta cards, Gold seems like the perfect place to add a Resy credit. Maybe $15 a month to help justify a fee increase. What do you think?
Oh boy that is a good possibility. No thank you though!!!
This style is better than the wishy-washy vids most creators make. Trash it or praise it, just don't be Luke-warm.😊
It generates a lot of down thumbs!!
👍
Great roast Luke! 😆
Thank you ma’am.
4:00 You might be on to something Uncle Luke 🤔 Spirit Airlines might actually be a great transfer partner for Capital One to add. Also, I love these takedown videos! Please add the Built Mastercard to the roster! 😂
Is the Bilt card good enough to roast??
@@LukesPointsandMiles Absolutely! Peekaboo signup bonus, weak travel category and multiplier, annoying verification process during application, weird fascination with soul cycle, hot and cold rent day rewards, and Wells Fargo just to name a few lol
I'll be honest - i've never really dove into the card
@@LukesPointsandMiles ahhhh, gotcha! Okay, skip that for now 😂
It’s open mic night at Uncle Luke’s place. I like the convicts at Super 8!
I’ve been told that you can’t called them convicts. A conviction is something that happened to you not what you are. 🤣
Uncle Luke, favor... can you log in into C1 VX Priority Pass and Plaza Premium and check the lounge in Manila airports terminal 3 and 1? does it show Marhaba lounge at T3? Paggs at T1 or T3? thanks again
I’m actually work. They will fire me if I’m doing personal business. Although that might not be a bad thing
I’ve heard Taylor Swift maximizes her CapitalOne points at the Choice properties 😏
How did I forget about Taylor swift!!!???
Yes, she is staying at Traveloges exclusively!
@@yurig2530 trailer swift!
🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching Jimmy!
Nice Roast on Cap1VX Luke! 😁😁

Amex Plat, Cap1VX & CSR will have pretty much the same Priority Pass perks. Which of these three will raise the AF first?
That’s a great question. I don’t think Chase can raise it since it doesn’t even come close to mitigating there as is.
I cancelled both CSR and Platinum long time ago. VX will ne next.
@@yurig2530 cancelling them all!!
@@LukesPointsandMiles no, I'm keeping AR, Prestige, Ritz, Aspire. Want to get more Ritzes and Aspires. On a fence with AA Executive.
Hey Luke , really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with Best Quality Editing in your videos which visually appeal to audience and would increase average view duration and will also make a highly engaging Thumbnail which will overall help your videos to reach to a wider audience ? Pls let me know what do you think ?
No thanks.
Hot take but I actually like travel portals. You get to see the all the options, you can do mixed bookings, and there's minimal up-sells.
Interesting.
I think portals are good for hotels. especially when you have 2 upgrade options (ie FHR, THC) to weigh and compare options.
I was considering this card until I saw the transfer partners lol
If I’m honest, I like the transfer partners just fine. But I’m not using capital one for exclusively
So if you cancel this card make sure it’s before the AF hits? That’s just wrong CO. Be better.
Yes sir!!
Super easy for me to use the credit. Needed a decent hotel for a football game, easy redemption on the portal and same price as booking it direct. I only get this card every few years for the welcome bonus.
I will say if you aren’t finding great bookings on air Canada you’ve gotta look harder. Lufthansa, ANA all there at great rates.
Air Canada is one of my favorites. I was trying to make a funny.
I'm currently having disaster with Air Canada. 81k miles stolen via known security hole. I'm fighting with them for more than two months to get them back, still missing 9k. Customer service is even worse than C1, it's absolutely useless.
@@yurig2530 that’s crazy.
for AUs on a personal CC, it counts towards 5/24 right? how about for employee cards on biz CCs? does it count towards 5/24? thanks
AU on personal cards do not actually count towards 5/24. They may initially see them but when you call recon you can clear that up. And no employee cards don’t count either. Neither are facially responsible for the card
You forgot to mention, most of you won't get approved for the duo. If you're lucky, they'll approve you for one card and leave you high and dry on the 2nd half of the duo.
Well that’s true!! Haha
The video was fun. But the Amex (roast video) was the best. a $50 bucks for a cereal cup that was hilarious
I agree. The platinum is just so easy to roast though.
😂... well, I enjoyed it. Also you're probably right that they'll just have 3 lounges for the next 4 years. Especially since they haven't announced new locations and it took them so long to finish IAD and DEN...
Haha. I would bet on that!
I didn’t know you had to forgo the annual if you cancelled mid year. I think everybody else prorates
I’m not sure the actual protocol for everyone. But from what I understand, capital one does not refund the AF.
@@LukesPointsandMiles what’s in your wallet!
Nailed it!
Thank you sir!!
Can't wait for the Citi Premier roast 😂
Not a bad idea!
😂😂😂 you are hilarious
Thanks for watching, Lisa!
I will say this.
Venture X is the coolest named credit card..
Cooler than the Freedom Flex????💪🏿
@@LukesPointsandMiles Oh!! That's a cool one too!! 😎
Awesome !!🤣
Thanks for watching!!
😂...true😎
No lies detected.
Capital one is much better than American Express.
Venture X rules!!! 😊
The official card of Filipino executive security worldwide!!!!
Are those 4 gay men in the pool close friends of yours?
Are you sure they were gay?
@@LukesPointsandMiles They definitely look like they are. Don't show this vid to you wife. She may get suspicious.
You looking for ur invitation?
Right on point. Absolute junk!
Yea basically amex is the best
They are the best at some things that for sure!!
The best coupon book.
Plat is only good Amex card. And even it is very limited in use. Be real.
First

Capitol who?
One babay!!!
