So I chatted up Cap One on my moms behalf to see if there was an upgrade option to her QS1 to QS. The rep said no and told me I could check any time for offers. I asked how and he said just click the link "Upgrade Now" once you login. I do not have this link so he sent me the url. I used it on my moms account and it shows she is eligible for the QS1. I used it on mine and it shows no upgrades. I have never seen this option on my login page so I don't know if this is common knowledge or not. But, either way, here ya go. I hope it helps someone.

The link just logs me into my normal capital one account when I enter my credentials.  Am I doing it wrong?


+1 the link just logs me into my account

I'm curious if those same card to same card conversions may be ways to get out of a CL ceiling group. Anyone try a same card conversion who was CL capped before?

Now you've got me wondering if I should accept it just to see what happens down the road LOL


Yep, that's exactly why I did the upgrade myself.  Smiley Happy

Re: Capital One check for upgrade link

So I did accept the "upgrade" on both of my accounts ... But as others have said, my upgrade was ostensibly to the same card. 

 

After I did it initially, when I opened the Cap 1 app, there was a "activate new card" prompt under my QS account, but now it's not there. 

 

So I still wait ... if/when I get the "new" card I'll update here

I just tried the link and all it did was log me into my account. Did I miss something I'm supposed to do?

Re: Capital One check for upgrade link

DW got offered a QS1 upgrade from her QS1...??? Um...

No thanks...

 

I got offered a QS upgrade from my V1 (V1 with no AF)...

My Platinum I opened in July 2016 was upgraded to a V1 (AF waived) 6 months ago.

 

I took the upgrade.

 

Assured me the same CC number, just a different Exp Date, and CCV number.

Re: Capital One check for upgrade link

So they told me I can "upgrade" my QS1 to a QS1...

 

Those are both the same cards..

 

Capital One is a real piece of work.

Some folks are reporting this. I even tried it with my popup blocker and ad blocker on and I still atleast get a message that an upgrade is not available. Maybe try a different browser?

Would this perhaps affect your chances for a cli in the near future if going with the upgrade?

Re: Capital One check for upgrade link

Tried the link. Started looking like it was just going to sign me into my account like  others have reported. It offered me an upgrade on one of my Quicksilver 1's to a Quicksilver with no annual fee instead of the 39 dollars I was paying. I took it. I don't use it a ton and was going to close it soon if I didnt get rid of the annual fee. Now i think I might role my other Quicksilver one into the Quicksilver and close it so I have 0 annual fees. I could try and wait it out to see if they will upgrade my other Quicksilver one card in a few months or so...which I think is the better course of action. I have till March 2018 when the next fee gets charged.

I hope not...

I received a crummy 1K CLI a few months ago... (SL 3K in July 2016)

I JUST tried for a CLI after I took this upgrade, and it said basically the last CLI was too recent...

 

So I'm hoping that this upgrade from a subprime card (V1) to a better "bucketed" card will truly move me out of the subprime.. to the prime bucket.. and allow the CLI's to come in a little better than 1K...

Considering the PenFed is 32K and NFCU os 22K...
