I got the Platinum and QS1 on 2/12 with a $300 limit on each, in credit steps.
On 4/7, I requested a CLI on the QS1 and was told my account was too new. My second statement for both cut on 4/9. I was going to wait until day 70 like many people here do but gave it a shot lsat night for some reason.
$300 --> $800 on both cards!
Can't wait to see what my steps increase will be in a few months 
(edited to correct date of last CLI request)
Congrats on the increase!

One week ago, I requested a CLI on the QS1 and was told my account was too new. My second statement for both cut on 4/9. I was going to wait until day 70 like many people here do but gave it a shot lsat night for some reason.

Awesome. I got those 2 cards for my DW in january and in just about 2 months i logged in and asked for cli on both and they bumped both cards from $300 to $800. When Cap One likes you, they like you 
Try it again in 2 months, right before your credit step cli's kick in. Whether you get the early cli or not, you will still get the credit steps cli.
Congrats on the 'early release' program 
After your 7th statement cuts....you'll get your credit steps CLI
Based on what you shared ( the $500 early CLI) it normally means credit step of $500
The 'steps' CLI seem to be automated at either $250 or $500.....whereas when you luve button it could be more...
Either way congrats you've got a CLI ready n waiting.....
Now after you get both steps CLI's...some might say that's the time to combo into one big card and that might be your best move
but also consider, since Cap-1 generally won't CLI again for 6 more months ...you may want to wait it out and let them both grow one more time
before you MEGA them together....FYI just so you another option to think of going forward....best to you
