Re: Bank of America 5% Rewards, Possibly Targeted?

it was an email I recieved that I clicked an activation link.

 

After I thought about it I realized I recieved one last quarter but ti was redundent on shopping catagories that my Freedom and Discover cards already had covered, also up to $500 in spending

Hey guys,

 

I woke up today to an email from BOA offering me 5% rewards on gas, grocerys, drugs, and resteraunts until March 31st. I have not used this card really since BT to Slate when I first started in April of last year.  I already have 5% on gas with my other cards for this quarter but def pulled it out and put it in my wallet since I go out to eat daily. I also logged in to my accoutn and did not see any messages or offers for this anywhere, I had to activate it through the email they sent me.

 

Hope this helps! Smiley Happy

 

 


Is there a cap?


says 2,500 points max so looks like $500 in spending.

 

and yes my account is now called Rewards Visa Signature since my old product was phased out (card still works), hence in a few months I will have the same boring design as all of their other cards and will either get Privlages or Merrill Lynch


Not bad. How do you register for the offer?

Seems several issuers are doing this lately. I think they are realizing that in the wake of cards like Double Cash or even Quicksilver they need to make their cards more competitive. You have little reason to use a BOA Cash Rewards except for gas if you're getting 2%/1.5% on everything anyway.

What the heck, $25 bucks for something I was going to spend anyways. Thursday is 'fillup' day for the two trucks so I'll have a third of it earned tomorrow. Smiley Wink

Just did a PC to the travel rewards card.  Perhaps I should hold off on activating the new account.

I got this offer too. I haven't used this card much since I got my new cards and cli's. My 1k limit is not enough to work with. I got my 4k spend to meet on CSP too. So no dice
