BOA CLD

[Anonymous]

I just logged in to my BOA account online and noticed the credit limit listed for my Accelerated Cash Rewards Amex is $500 instead of $5700 as it used to be.

I had a balance of $276 on this card that I was logging in to PIF. The statement cut with it, so perhaps for some reason that triggered the CLD. 

I'm going to have to talk to a credit analyst to get to the bottom of this and see if my CL can be reinstated.

Ouch, sorry to hear that.   Keep us posted.  

Wow, seems like this is now happening with every bank out there.

Sorry to hear that. Could be a computer generated cld. Did you call the back door number and see if they can restore the original limit?

I plan on doing so as soon as I get home. I'm hoping maybe it was just a software glitch or something. I haven't seen many (if any) BOA CLD posts so I'm a little puzzled. 

They didn't touch the $20,000 limit on my BOA MC which has a $5700 or so balance on it. I am getting ready to pay that down with my tax return. I had them direct deposit BT into my checking account to pay an attorney to sue Portfolio Recovery so at least I wouldn't pay interest on it while litigation is pending. 

Even more puzzling is that I could have sworn BOA has received substantial, multiple billion dollar tax payer assistance. I thought banks were supposed to lend that money to stimulate consumer spending.

Citi was given over 36 billion to "lend" to stimulate the economy, and I know five of us on these boards were declined by Citi last week, and 1 person was only given a small starting limit. We all have decent scores too.

That bailout is a joke. Nobody who received any coin is loaning it out.

Sorry that happened, Fretless.

Sorry to hear that. I hope you have some success restoring it to the right CL.

I half expect to see the same thing every time I log onto any of my 'prime' CC online sites. I've got the same card too.

CU cards are the way for now IMHO.

Good luck and sorry again.
