Congrats on the increase -- very nice!!!

Yes, it also seems to me that Cap1 is softening a bit. I'm still in shock over getting my Platinum upgraded to Venture Signature, with no hassle -- just a "sure, you're eligible to upgrade" for a response. And this was without even having to contact the Executive Office!  I'm not quite sure what gives, but they may very well be rethinking their policies. The lack of their cards having the ability to grow has been a major complaint, so perhaps they are trying to improve customer loyalty. If this is the case, all I can say is good for them!
