US Bank Cash+ , 2 Designs?

So I got my US Bank Cash+ in the mail and got the darker blue design as a Visa Signature. I thought the lighter blue card was for siggy and darker for non-siggy just from the pictures they have on their site. Anyone know the real difference between the two?

I have one of each design, both VS.
The lighter one is a PC from a Cash Rewards card
The darker designs was an app directly to Cash+
Neither designs was the original color scene for the card.

Whether that color match is the same for others, we will have to see.

They both swipe just the same, chip timing was a little different.

Hm.. that's possible. Guess we need some more datapoints

I have had this card for about 4 years. I remember receiving the light blue one once, but when I ordered a new card approx 2 years ago, they sent me the dark blue one. Personally, I like the dark blue one more. The lighter blue one is more similar to the original card. I also have a checking account with US Bank and they gave me an 18k credit limit. Not sure if that helps. 

 

Edit: I ordered a new card. I will update with which version I receive. 

 

Update: received dark blue version

Sounds good, Thank you. I just emailed US Bank about it and will post if they respond.

 

Update: Called a rep and she said that the dark blue is the platinum and the light blue is the signature (usually $5k limit). I then mentioned that my dark blue card had signature on it and she could not provide another answer. I don't blame her.

 

My CL is $5k so maybe they flipped a coin on me for design choice. haha

FWIW in late December I was approved for the Cash+, and my card came as the dark blue as well (and is a Signature). 

 

I don't really care either way, but given a choice I do mildly prefer the dark blue.  Smiley Happy

I really prefer the light blue design as it reminds me of the original. My card expired at the end of January, and was reissued as the dark blue card. I am not a fan. Perhaps the rep is partially correct, and the designs were originally ment to distinguish product segments as the issuing of Signature line cards below 5k is relatively new from USBank.

Ditto for me, except I was approved late January.

Can anyone confirm if this card has the card numbers embossed on the front?
