Really confused about BOA

Tow days ago, I got approved for the Cash Reward Privleges card with a $15K CL

 

Got a call about 20 minutes ago telling me that I have been approved for the Travel Rewars Privileges card with a $5K CL

 

So I ask the credit analyst what this is about. She said it looks like there was also an application for the Travel REwards Privileges. And she confirmed it was onlt one HP, gave me her name etc.

 

The best part, According to their website, both have a $75 after the first year. She said they are going to give me the Travel Rewards Privileges with no AF at all not just the first year .

 

I need a drink after that call. Where's my Jack D??

It's still a signature so most likely no Smiley Sad

Re: Really confused about BOA

When I first come to US, I went to BoA and applied for a student CC there, after a few days I didn't recieve any response so I applied online again and 2 weeks later I got 2 CCs Smiley Happy I don't remember if it was one HP or 2 but it was a good experience

BoA. what a strange animal

 

Just wait for when both cards report on your CR, and get a call from BoA that they are taking AA because you have 1 too many new accounts. I'm kidding of course.
