CapOne Platinum upgraded to Venture Rewards

[Anonymous]

So after seeing everyone else get their cards upgraded and repeatedly being told I had no offers via live chat, I'd pretty much lost hope but decided to contact CapOne via Facebook as a last ditch effort.

I didn't expect success honestly, but they called and said my request had been approved. She couldn't have been nicer and the call took all of a minutes. Props to CapOne CS!

I'd have never known about the EO/Facebook option if it weren't for this board, so thanks to everyone!

You got your regular Plat upgraded to the Venture or the Venture One? Whats your CL on the card, and how long have you had it?

Regular Platinum from way back in the day, like 1999, with an AF and $10K CL.

Was upgraded to a Venture Rewards not Venture One.

Exactly. I just thought it was ridiculous that I was paying an AF for a no-rewards Platinum card (the new ones don't even have AF), but I really didn't want to close such an old account. I didn't get the sign-up bonus, but I actually didn't even think to ask about it. 

To whomever asked, just go to the Capital One Facebook page and send a message like you would to one of your FB friends. I was actually really surprised that they'd already approved the PC prior to even talking to me and simply called to confirm that I'd like to go ahead with the PC. The phone call took all of one minute. Extremely impressed.
