Re: Fico score is 716.

Length of time accounts have been established.

Lack of recent installment loan information.

Too many inquiries in the last 12 months.

Length of time revolving accounts have been established. 

 

It's okay, I got better cards than BOA Smiley Happy.

A mortgage is third tier? Smiley Happy.

 

Installment loans cover a broad range of things, not just consumer finance type accounts.

Re: Fico score is 716.

With a score like that I never thought I had. I did get some nice prizes and I shouldn't feel bad that one company didn't want me to be a customer of theirs.

Well you have to realize score is not everything, and if I recall correctly your AAOA was not even a year because you a few weeks were suppose to be waiting to March , and then slow but surely itch got to you.  I would not write off a bank just because they would not apporve you right now, especially BOFA who in my experience has been very good to me.  Just treat your current cards well, and you will be fine.
