That is quite alright tinu. My success was 5.5 months ago, 2 weeks after i opened my account. I think you had a presence in that thread. Haha.

 

LOL, yeah, sorry about the confusion. There've been so many posts lately about Cap1 CLI and/or PCs with the exec office, it's hard to keep track of exactly who's done what... especially wading through a ton of threads after being away for over a week!!!

Re: Cap1 - upgraded to Venture!!!

Congrats! I just tried this more or less myself. I learned that the card must have at least a 5000 CL to be considered for the upgrade since those cards start at a minimum of 5000. I have a thread on it floating around.

 

I'm glad that worked out for you! Spend wisely. :smileytongue:

Ah, also i cant edit (on my phone) so sorry for the double posr, but when they did mine they also told me 5-7 days. The name of my account stayed "platinum mastercard" and the next day a little rewards thing appeared underneath my account. All of my transactions that were pending at the time immediately accrued into my rewards even though i made the purchases prior to the upgrade. The 5-7 days thing is probably just for their safety, but it should be much quicker than that.

That just happened for me today, so I guess it's official. :smileyhappy:

I was wondering what happened to you as I started considering my app spree because I knew we both got a $3,000 Cap1 within a few weeks of each other. But then you came back to the forums, and I got approved for all my cards. You must be good luck or something. 

In My Wallet: Amex BCP (12/12) $13,500, Cap1 Cash Rewards (6/12) $9,000, Barclaycard Arrival (5/13) $7,500, Citi Forward (12/12) $6,500, Chase Freedom (12/12) $5,000

In The Garden!
