Some BoA luv!

[DrZoidberg]

I had a BoA secure card that graduated 3 years ago (I've had it for 5 years total) and it's just a normal Mastercard with no rewards so I figured I would convert it to something useful, I don't want to close it because it's one of my oldest cards. 

So I ask about a PC and they offered to convert to a BoA Travel Rewards Visa or a rewards Amex, but they said the Amex required a $5k limit. My MC only has a $2.5k limit, I never bothered upping it as I just have it because it's old. Well I do a CLI request online and get an instant approval from $2.5k to $10k. After that I submit the request to convert. So they converted it to a Travel Rewards Amex.

It's I card I hardly use so it's nice to get a nice CL on it and now it actually has some benefits to it.

Congrats on your CLI

[DrZoidberg]

Will the card being an Amex be able to leverage me any history with Amex? Or is it just a stamp on the card that has no meaning really.

I was recently approved for a FNBO Amex card and from what I have read it has nothing to do with Amex other than being a FNBO card that rides on the Amex network. It wont have any bearing on building a relationship with Amex.

I know the feeling

From my own whole line up of CC's i seem to prefer turning to BofA and enjoy reaping their Cash Back Rewards. Personally might have a lot to do with US Bank keeping their Cash+ out of my reach

Congrats! on the long awaited surge ahead enough to land a decent one for you from them.
