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:

Some questions here, please:
1) Any prior success in retention offers/waiving annual fee before? If so, how much on average was the retention offer?
2) It seems the quality of Radisson hotels outside the US are way better than in the US. Any great Radisson hotels in the US/Caribbean as an exception to the prior statement?
3) When you redeem points, any additional resort fees or taxes?
4) How long do you need to wait to churn this card again?
5) Can you downgrade the card to the non-annual version?
6) Any update on the business version or still discontinued?

2) Can only guess this would be any Blu properties such as one coming to Aruba
3) I don't think so, but my last redemption was a few years ago
4) Can't answer.
5) It is or was, but apparently they may say "no" the first time you ask. Please let us know if you're successful
6) I haven't seen any reports of the business card coming back.

Not a very interesting offer, IMHO, and not going to get me to use the card more, but here it is...

No offers yet for the no AF card.
Does anyone know US Bank policy on cancelling inactive cards? Have not used the card for a while but would prefer to avoid forced closure. Many banks (e.g. BofA) are aggressively closing inactive accounts.

Not sure about policy, but I have used my Carlson/Radisson VISA for a relatively small charge ($20-60) about every six months for the last three years to make sure I have some activity. I should probably just close the card, though...

We have one particular large bill due once a year that allows unlimited partial payments and has a payment deadline 2-3 months after we get it. It's a perfect opportunity to make sure every mothballed card gets a charge at least once a year. Ideally, if we could find a second bill like that, we could automate 2x charges per year per card, which is probably the ideal cadence.

If I have the business version open but apply for the 120K personal card offer, will that render me ineligible for the New Account Bonus? I assume so, but just wanted to check in case any DPs out there indicate otherwise. Also, anybody applied using the 120K link of late and gotten the bonus without issue? Does approval for the card mean approval for the bonus, a la Chase, or can one be approved for card and denied the SUB a la Amex?

Another thing to consider: I seem to remember that it used to be that if you had one Radisson Rewards card of some kind already, and then you applied for another one of another type, they would not attach that new card to your existing Radisson Rewards account, they would instead open a different Radisson Rewards account for you. Is it now possible to actually apply for multiple Radisson Rewards cards on the same Radisson Rewards account?
