I have hit the button to upgrade to quicksilver several times but to no avail.
Where is this button?
log on to your account, then go to accounts, then click on "modify your features" then click on first button "your Features" it will then tell you if your account can be upgraded.
However in my case it said there were no upgrades for me, that is when I went on to the on line chat and asked a CSR and both my accounts were upgraded.

My guess is that the EO has been overwhelmed with requests that the frontline CSR's have no ability to grant such requests like waiving AF's and CLI's. All my success has been through EO and as that may annoy some that is fine by me...nothing ventured, nothing gained.
However, any HSBC product that has been converted (and I know you don't have one, just a datapoint) seems to not be eligible for PCing to QS but can be converted to QS1 (my observation and experience). So since you have a credit steps card, with good use and payment history it is possible to get CLI's. When you contact EO, request that your limit is at least $3k as that is the minimum limit of a QS card (not QS1) if your limits are below that threshold. It worked for me but YEMV.
Again, congrats on the PC!
I have an old HSBC card and it was converted to a Quicksilver without an AF! I also got a CLI on it after the conversion!
Interesting. So I have 2 accounts with Capone and the smaller one $1500 cl) is eligible but it says the other (5k cl) is not.

If you currently have a Platinum version of the card, then it will PC to a Platinum version of the QS. Conversely, if you currently have either a Visa Signature or WMC, then once PC'd, it will convert to the corresponding QS Visa Signature or WMC.
Thank you for your help ! Prior to your reply, I had tried to get an answer from Capital One. The reply that I received was that the representative misunderstood and thought I was inquiring about applying for a new financial product and informed me I needed to call Capital One for further assistance with the application.
Is there any downside to accepting the invitation to add the Quicksilver rewards ? The only concern that I have is that I'll lose the current offer for a balance transfer and that in the future either I'll lose any future BT offers or I will receive fewer BT offers.
