I chat online with a Capital One "specialist" earlier and although they offered to upgrade mine to the quick silver, the credit limit would stay the same at 750. Not sure what to do at this point. Should I just upgrade it and wait a couple month then ask for the cli again?

These are not the people to talk to they are just regular CSRs as stated you need to contact the Executive Office (you can Google it) and ask for your PC & CLI from them they are the only ones who can help you if you want the limit raised.
close the card

+1. You just talked to a frontline CSR (but I'd take the upgrade, anyway).
I took the upgrade ofer since 1.5% cash back is a pretty awesome deal. I figured I'll just wait a couple months and ask for a cli again. Just seem like a lot of trouble to go through for a cli though. Sigh. That's the only thing I dislike about Capital One.
Unless your gpin

Unless you contact the executive office it is very unlikely that capital one will give you a credit line increase till 6 months has passed from the date of your previous CLI request. I was denied recently with the reason that 6 months needs to pass before a CLI can be granted. The day after 6 months my CLI was granted.
I was denied last month for not using their card 4 months in a row. Have had the account since 2008.
Capital One is a great sub-prime lender for rebuilding, but once you achieve your goals they have no interest in maintaining relationships with you. My understanding is that they will not do a PC from a product with an AF to one without an AF. This was my experience also. Having to email and wait in order to get the fee waived every year is ridiculous IMO. I just went got done jumping through all their hoops for this year, but I wont be doing it again. My QuickSilver One cards will both be closed before the fee hits again.
I would close the card as well. You have to beg Capital One for CLI, not worth it and you obviously don't need the card since you have higher limits with other lenders.
No reason to wait, just email the president of capital one and the exec. office will call you in a matter of hours to a day or 2 depending how busy they are and go over what you are wanting... Now that you have the upgrade already, I would ask for AF to be removed and as others said ask for CLI to $5k. They will ask you if you would accept less than $5k if needed and you can say yes and they will call you back usually in a couple of days with what they were able to do.
It's all done with a soft pull and easy process.
