Why is the balance due on my business card always shown as $0?
There are TWO account numbers linked to your business card: The card itself, which shows up in the same website account as any personal cards you may have. This will always show a $0 balance due.
There is a SECOND account - labeled the "Central Bill Account" - with its own account number. You must set up a separate website account with its own username and password to access the Central Bill Account. This is the account that will actually show the balance due and let you schedule a payment. Somewhere in the paperwork you received with the card or the first paper invoice, you should be able to find the Central Bill Account's number.
Setting up separate website account for business card:

Is the fax number for IDA accurate and up to date? I tried sending a fax using MyFax.com and it tells me the connection refused. The number for ARS worked fine. MyFax let's you fax 2 documents every 24 hrs for free so I don't think it's their end. Anyone knows if there is another number I can fax IDA with?

A data point: I was approved for the premier version of this card with 8 hard pulls in the past 6 months. Completed my minimum spend and received 9XK points. I did not freeze any credit reports. I only had to verify my current address during the recon call with no other questions from the rep.

I got that message when applied for the business card if I put in my office zip code. (Yes, I have a legitimate business of more than 30 years duration). For some reason the automated system wanted my SSN and my home zip code to be input rather than my business EIN and the office zip code. Apparently they check the credit of both the business and the authorized users. I know from reading the Cardholder Agreement that they hold both jointly liable for any charges incurred.

Did you apply for a business card or a personal card?

Edit: Just notice that there is another card showing up on my online account so I guess the personal card went through just fine.

Data point: Approved for premier
Data point: Got Premier version with $1x,000 CL.
My last US bank CC CL didn't qualify for Visa signature.
This time: froze ARS & IDA. Waited 90+ days from my last credit pull. Had opened only 3 CC in last 6 months.
And did I say they pulled TU?
Thanks US bank for leaving the heavily used EX & EQ untouched.
Update: They also sent TU FICO score for free.

Banks send score when the [lower] score gave you unfavorable decision. I believe in this case, since the premier card APR is 13.99% to 22.99%, if someone is approved with APR higher than 13.99% they would receive the score.

Interesting. I threw out everything they sent me so I don't remember what the interest rate was and the website is barely functional right now so I can't tell from there either. The letter said my score was 731 which is kinda low and after I was instantly approved the website said my APR was 17.99% so assuming that's correct I guess that makes sense. I did get the premier card though and I just got my 50k bonus points from my first purchase.

be careful how you do your MS with US Bank. Got Carlson Biz card and tried to put 2K at CVS. Card got flagged for fraud. Called 2 days later to clear fraud flag and was told account is closed. Was given persons name and their extension. Im guessing they know all about CVS prepaids and whole drill.
