ITEM 5.            OTHER EVENTS.

                   The March 1998 monthly Certificateholders Statements to
                   investors were distributed April 15, 1998.

                   During the fourth quarter of 1997 Capital One Bank ("Bank")
                   modified its methodology as to the timing of charge-offs of
                   credit card loans.  The Bank now charges off credit card
                   loans at 180 days past-due versus the prior practice of
                   charging off loans during the next billing cycle after
                   becoming 180 days past-due.  For the Capital One Master
                   Trust (the "Trust"), this new methodology will be
                   implemented during the months of December 1997 with respect
                   to Principal Receivables and January 1998 with respect to
                   Finance Charge Receivables.  For the December monthly
                   period, this change in methodology resulted in an additional
                   increase of $40,961,451 in the Defaulted Amount and
                   correspondingly an additional increase of 4.88% in the
                   annualized default rate for the Capital One Master Trust.
                   This increase reflects the charge-off of Principal
                   Receivables in December under the new methodology.  In
                   addition, for each Series, Excess Spread will be reduced
                   proportionately as a result of the increased Defaulted
                   Amount.  In January 1998, this new methodology will result
                   in a decrease of approximately $18,249,552 in the amount of
                   Finance Charge Receivables, reflecting the reversal of
                   finance charges and fees previously accrued for these
                   Defaulted Accounts.  Excess Spread for January will also be
                   reduced proportionately as a result of the decrease in
                   Finance Charge Receivables.
