I'd had this card since December 2011. I have another Capital One card, which was my oldest card, for 5 years. I'd just had the $300 limit on that card raised to $2k at the same time with the EO.

Also, it goes to show that when you use 'Chat Now' they don't tell you all your offers upfront, I had to keep pushing to eventually get him to say I was eligible to upgrade to Venture 2. I logged in this morning and my cash rewards balance has already converted into miles!
Congratulations on your successful upgrade!
My experience was similar to yours. I upgrade via the Chat Now feature and made it clear that I was interested in the Venture Card. A couple of minutes later the CSR informed me that I was eligible to upgrade to the VentureOne. I had to repeat that I was interested in Venture -- I really want the double miles, not 1.25 miles -- and she came back a couple of minutes later and informed me that I was, indeed, eligible for the upgrade. So yes, you do have to question thoroughly to make certain that you are eligible for what you really want.
