How many inqs? (I guess if you base it off EX and/or TU)  Lots of newly opened accounts?  I'm thinking this could also hinge on your current exposure with them and DTI, more so than inquiries.

+1

 

BoA has been more conservative than Citi or Amex when it comes to approvals with a lot of new accounts in my case.  I've heard 6 inq in the last 6 months is too many for Citi, but am not sure what would the threshold is with BoA/FIA.  They like to pull EX for new apps and TU for CLI in my case.

NICE CARD, Enjoy the VIsa Sig. I should consider getting my BoA a Visa Sig. I wanted to know if BofA is going to offer Chip & Pin anytime soon. I've learned from last year that France hates Chip & Signature cards in local towns.

You can contact BOA to PC your card to a Visa Signature.  From your siggy, it appears the CL is at the adequate $5K level to qualify/PC.  It may take them about 2-4 weeks (give or take) to PC, but it's doable.
