Decided to take the plunge and start a relationship with BofA. I opened up a checking acount earlier this week with a $100 SUB and deposited enough cash to immediately qualify for Platinum status in their Preferred Rewards program. I also started an application for a Merrill investment account where I'm seeking a $150 SUB and I'll be applying for a Merrill rollover retirement account as well where I'm seeking a second $150 SUB. By the end of the month, I *should* be qualified for Platinum Honors status based on total assets across the BofA & Merrill accounts and qualified for $400 in SUBs.
I was going to wait until I acheived Platinum Honors status to apply for the Premium Rewards card so I'd be earning 3.5% on dining & travel and 2.625% on everything else on day 1, but an itchy trigger got the best of me and I submitted the application this morning. To my pleasant surprise, I received an instant approval with a $37,200 SL (my highest SL to date) and the 50k points ($500) SUB to boot! The credit gods have certainly smiled upon me.
Shout out to @Aim_High for his words of wisdom on BofA
One of the largest initial CLs I have seen out of BoA, grats on it
Agreed. That is an outstanding SL for Bank of America. Congrats on your approval!
