BBVA NBA now discontinued

Anonymous · ‎04-27-2017

I made a post a few months back about the branches were temporarily not taking applications anymore. Accoring to two branch managers I spoke with this week, they have both said that the NBA card is officially discontinued and "for the time being" current customers may still use their accounts. They were both informed that the bank would not be bidding again for the NBA contract when it comes up.

I know this card was popular for a while because they were handing out unexpectedly high limits, but I've never warmed up to BBVA as an issuer. Their service is just too flaky. It will be interesting to see where the NBA account goes to next.

Sorry to all cardholders.

Yeah! To the possibilities on who gets the next contract

+1 give it to some bank that can handle it rather than BBVA/Compass.. They need to give it to a regional bank that is competent. Hopefully they lost the rights to issue the card and the contract is being yanked from them and being given to another bank.

Funny seeing this thread. I just used this card today in order to show some usage. I rarely use it, though it always works as it should.

Has anyone received a chip card version yet ?

Hopefully a lender that doesn't suffer from bi-polar, schizophrenia takes it... Oh wait.. Barclays has NFL.

BofA has MLB

Discover has NHL

I think Credit One has Nascar? (lulz)

Chase, Wells Fargo, Citi, FNBO, USBank?

Who would do it better?

I recently used mine too - basically to keep it active, but it was on my list of cards to close sooner or later (looks like it'll be sooner). 11.74 APR and $20k CL, rewards are not anything I've used, but I won't miss it since I rarely use it (was my only co-branded AmEx).
