Capital One Spark Cards Offering up to 200,000 "Miles"

The Capital One Spark Cash is offering $500 cash bonus and the Capital One Spark Miles is offering 50,000 miles, both are after $4,500 in spend within three months. Be warned that Capital One pulls all three bureaus, but they should approve you with one frozen. It's also possible to combine multiple inquiries so you could maybe also apply for the Capital One Venture as well at same time (both applications must be approved in the same day to be combined).

My thoughts can be found here.

This post contains a link to my blog, I've included all relevant information as per flyertalk rules.

“Existing or previous Spark cardholders may not be eligible for this one-time bonus.”

Any idea what the “May not be eligible” entails? I just got approved and bonused on this card within the last three months. Next week I should be ok to apply for a couple more cards. If there is any data on two approval/bonuses for this card it would be great to know.
Thank you

I'm interested in applying for one of these (and a Venture to combine the credit pulls), but I can't find any discussion on how CapOne views "sole proprietors" applying for business cards. Do they give you any hassle if you're just using your SSN?

CO combines 2 personal pulls - but what about 1 Personal & 1 Business? I can't find any confirmation of that scenario - anyone?

I just applied for the Spark Cash and was approved with a 5k limit. Sole proprietor, $0 in revenue $0 in business expenses on credit and <1 year old business. Do they reallocate credit between personal and business? I have $20k on a Venture card and would like to move a bit to the Spark.

Not happy with the miles card. If you want cash back, you only receive half value. Anyone know if this can be converted to the Spark Cash if you already have a Spark Cash card?

The cashback shows up right away after your purchases post...I'm liking this card so far.

Purchase Uber gift card for a certain young person in your life. Redeem everyday until you exhaust your rewards. Done
