As this is my first post, I'd like to thank everyone for all the amazing information on this forum since I've joined.
I've done a little reading about this topic but I'd like to get your opinion on my situation.
I opened the Venture Card on 10/1/14 with the 40,000 bonus. Since then I've had very heavy usage on the card (approx: $48,000) making full payments almost daily. With this type of usage would you suggest waiting the 6 months to request a CLI or would you go through the EO at the present time (or after 3 months)?
Thanks

With Cap-1 you are going to have to wait 6 months post account opening to use regular channels, at 3 months you are going to have to go to the EO to ask for the CLI, Good luck
My goal is to get this card to 20k which with business I'm able to spend weekly. Do you think with that goal in mind I should continue to keep this high usage up for a few more months or give it a shot now with the EO?
Thanks

Honestly I think you need to wait six months minimum to establish a use/payment history. Your not likely to get it up to 20k all in one shot. I went from 5k to 10k after six months of decent use.
Its possible to get it to 20k all at once in my opinion. However no matter what its always a "your mileage may vary" type of thing. I think as mentioned wait 6 months. You could try asking for a credit line increase on the website of which like most might get the 7-10 message. Then it would be best to contact the executive office for a manual review and say you would like an increase to 20k.
