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 received my Club Carlson card a few days ago. Then today, I received a targeted Club Carlson cc app in the mail with a pre-approved confirmation code. Is it worth a hard pull to use the confirmation code or are they just going to reject me?

Suggest you read the really small fine print about the condition of "pre-approved". Too often it does not work the way you have in mind. The confirmation code merely ties your SSN to that offer, does not mean anything of "pre-approved" without credit check and such. Only after reading thru the fine print can you determine whether it is worth it or not especially you just got the card already.

Funny, same thing happened to my wife. We got her card last week for the 85k bonus. Yesterday, we received paper mail about the pre-approval but with a worse sign-up offer.

I got the Club Carlson card one month ago and got a targeted offer in the mail today. I'm guessing there's just a lag in the data that the CC targeting people use to send out offers.

Anyone know when bonus 2for1 redemption option shows up on CC website? I got an approval message on automated line today and I have bunch of rewards booking (total of 200K) coming up in couple of months and I am wondering if when I would be able to switch( cancel the existing reservations and book with new 2for1).

US Bank Club Carlson Signature Visa Card, 85K Sign up, 40k/yr upon renewal
Went to a physical US Bank branch (inside of a Fred Meyer) to apply for the card. I was told that I have to apply through the hotel. Has anyone applied for this card at a branch? It didn't make sense to me at all, not quite sure how Radisson would take a credit card app, haven't been in one since the card came out. Looks like I'll just apply online, but it probably hurts my approval chances .

DH already got his card in hand for 10 days. And he received the mail solicitation also.
My guess is US Bank / Club Carlson just started a massive customer acquisition campaign to all newly signed up Club Carlson accounts.

I have a question about the app process for US Bank. Based on my reading of the thread it seems tougher to get a card from US Bank than other banks. Is it tougher based only on if you have a lot of apps in the last 6 months or are the standards higher across the board? I'm asking b/c I haven't done an app-o-rama in the last year but I'm only around mid 700s credit score.

I noticed that the business version has two accounts:
Central Bill Account
Business Credit Card account
Charges show up on the card first, then onto the central account.
When you pay off your bill, the credit limit on the central account frees up, but on on the card account. You cannot do a pull payment into the card account when the balance is paid off and back to 0.
How do you free up credit on the card account? Without the ability to do so, it won't be possible for me to make my 2.5k spend
