Thanks for your posts, guys! It's really enlightening for me....reading everyone's experiences and the different avenues they have taken (and the different results they're getting)....
Take myself for example: the reason I didn't request a CLI with my PC is because I didn't go through the executive office for the PC; I went through the Rewards Center, and the Rewards Center doesn't handle CLIs. My original intent wasn't even to get a PC. I had called the Rewards Center with a simple request for them to improve my rewards cash back rate. The representative reviewed my account, and then she told me that I was eligible for an upgrade to Quicksilver visa signature (I still don't totally believe that I'll actually get the signature version, because I'm still on my initial credit limit of $1000)...but anyway, I'm digressing...
I'm still concerned about my credit steps not being honored, due to my account "graduating" to a Quicksilver...
Based on everything I've read so far, this is what I've been able to gather about the Cap One executive office:: they seem to operate entirely outside and independently of any default policies or standard protocols for any type of card account, whether it be a rebuilder card, "average credit" credit card, or "excellent credit" credit card.
asutton40's experience is telling of this. when you asked the eo for your cli, they didn't tell you "No, you are already in credit steps; you must wait." Instead, they told you that your requested cli would Replace your credit steps cli. But then look what happened...you ended up getting the credit steps cli anyway.
I now believe that one could even wait until after credit steps completion to ask for a cli, and the eo wouldn't say "no you can't have it, because you just finished credit steps; you must wait"
What are you guys' suggestions for me, with regard to getting CLI?
