OK, I get you on the 6.25% with the redeemed bonus.  Someone else can chime in if they'd like, but I am pretty sure you were mislead.  The Cash+ is a signature card which requires a 5k min CL.  I hope for your sake it ends up being the Cash+


Maybe underwriting made an exception...but kinda doubtful

My brother is a very established banker at US Bank and I confirmed with him, no way its a cash+ under 5k.  5k CL is the bare minimum for a signature card

How long ago was your score in the 500's? What is it now?

From US Banks website... "4. Should your application for the U.S. Bank Cash+ Visa® Signature Card be denied, submitting this application constitutes your application for a U.S. Bank Cash Rewards Visa® Card. The U.S. Bank Cash Rewards Visa Card does not earn 5% or 2% cash back." Aren't all visa sigs minimum 5k?

No. Chase will approve a Freedom Signature for under $5k. The $5k figure keeps getting thrown around as fact because some banks will only offer them at that level.

I don't think Us Bank falls into that catagory.  I just app'd for the cash plus a week ago and was denied.  I called underwriting and was told I didn't qualify for a 5k CL and that they would give me the platinum with a 1500 limit.  I'm just saying, I hope he's a lucky one, but its far from normal
