BofA 123 Cash Rewards CLI 6K>10K.

Hi everyone! This card started as secured 6 months ago. Initial deposit was 3K. I requested early graduation at 5 months, and also given CLI from 3K>6K. No hard pull for early graduation, or initial CLI. Last night, I requested a CLI online for 10K. Got 7-10 day message. Called BD number this morning, and was told the request was a decline due to serious delinquency. They were referring to my 2012 BK. The reason I was declined for unsecured initially, and offered the secured card. Lol. The CA asked if I'd like a reconsideration. She said she would call back in a few days with a decison, as it needed to be reviewed by upper mgmt. I called right back and tried my luck again, and told the same thing. I called back yet again later in the day, was put on hold, then told my new CL has been approved for 10K! I may have been lucky, but it doesn't hurt to call a few times. YMMV! 

 

Forgot to mention! I was able to get the AF permanently removed, and upgraded to Visa Sig at graduation. APR was lowered to 17.99% a few weeks ago.

Congratz! I just kicked BOA to the curb, after a year of dealing with a paultry 500 sl, graduation at 9 months, requested a cli and was told there was no way they could go over 500. I have BCE 10.5k QS 16k freeedom 5k local CU 7.5k, etc so told them what they could do with their card. TU 08 708. Glad you have had a pleasnt experience with them!

@Alexl22

Sorry to hear about your experience! That doesn't sound typical of BofA. Did you use the card much?
