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:

I've done 3x $5,000 VR at CVS with no problems on my Club Carlson Card. I think 2 months it was my only charge on that card.
I have had a Flexperk card with USB though since 2007 and have put 6 figures on that card so I would hope that I have a 'good' relationship with USB.

It depends on each person's profile how US Bank sees it.
Some get calls to inquire their $1007.90 charge some can do that every other day without being called to the carpet. We pretty much can do whatever we want on ours.
How much is your credit line play a role, as well as how your charge pattern established from the beginning.
You would need to do a trial and error type of approach instead of blindly relying oh others' data.

I applied for the Visa Signature but only got approved for the Visa Platinum (prob due to too many recent inquiries)
I'm not sure if I can justify paying the $50 AF for what I'd be getting in terms of bonuses. Is there any way to "reject" the card that I have been approved for? What if I don't activate the card after I receive it in the mail

Hm so random question on the Biz card, I made a payment and it shows credited to the Central account (shows credit limit back to what it should be and payment on trans details) however the actual Business Card account still has a shorted credit line and no payment listed in the transaction details. What's the deal? Is this something to worry about?

Data point for existing cardholders
Got a "Congratulation" letter from US Bank on husband's card opened in 01/2013 to inform him his CL now is raised to 21K (from 16K) due to his exceptional way he handles his account... So now you guys can VR away as much as you feel comfortable.
