No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
My apologies if this has been asked and answered but I am unable to find an answer in past posts.
I recently increased my BoA Cash Rewards Platinum Visa CL from $3,000 to $6,500. I am curious if I am going to receive a Cash Rewards Signature Visa card or will this card most likely remain a Platinum Visa?
TIA
Found this post that is a couple of years old but relevant I think to your situation. The OP of that thread went to a branch office to complete the request but I think if you get a competent phone rep you should be able to get your request done.
Edit: another thread. Seems all you have to do is put the request in if you find the right rep and while it'll take awhile it is possible to do it.

I'm not sure $5k is the conversion point.
I believe the Visa Signature Card has a minimum limit of $5000. I am not sure what BoA's policy is, however, I am going to give them a call. I will update you after I get off the phone with BoA.
I called BoA and chose replacement card, other from the phone tree and was in the phone queue for about 10 minutes before I spoke with a CSR. The representative stated that what I wanted was a "product change" from my Cash Rewards Platinum Plus Visa to a Cash Rewards Signature Visa. This took her about 5 minutes to accomplish. I am not sure if this was a HP. She said my account history would not change however my CC number might change and I would lose any unredeemed rewards. She stated I can call the status line to get an update on my request. I hope this is not a HP because I am in the Garden and I am trying to get below 5/24 so I can apply for a Chase card. My card, if approved, will be delivered in 2-4 weeks.
Tell me what you think.
I had 2 BoA cards PCed last year. One requested by me, and one they did because the old card was discontinued. Neither resulted in a HP, and the account number and CVV # stayed the same... the expiration date might have changed though, I don't remember.
Neither PC involved a change from regular to signature/world elite or vice versa. One was a regular (Platinum Plus) Mastercard, one was a Visa Signature. Both retained their type, just the reward product changed.
