FINALLY - BofA Product Change!!

For those of you that may be interested, a few data points and interesting points of note:

 

  • BoA BankAmericard Secured $1500 CLI from 2018
  • Became unsecured in early 2020
  • Requested first PC in fall of 2020 with no luck
  • Requested 2nd PC in winter of 2021 with no luck
  • Requested CLI to $4000 successfully in Feb 2021
  • Just requested a CLI to $5500 yesterday successfully
  • ALSO requested a PC later yesterday afternoon successfully!

Background -

https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Cards/BoA-PC-eureka-moment/td-p/6347156

 

Don't know if it was the luck of the draw in terms of a CSR and/or the CLI I had, but whatever it is no complaints now.

Re: FINALLY - BofA Product Change!!

Congrats.

 

So you changed to the Cash Rewards? Will it stay a Mastercard? 

 

The last time I PC'ed with BofA was many years ago and it took nearly 2 months for the change to be complete. Very strange. Please let us know if that is still the case.

I have recent PC experience with BofA. My PC this year was surprisingly quick compared to the old process of 2 months. The PC online was a few days and I got the card in 2 weeks (approximately).
