BoA PreQual Reliability

Just curious, how reliable is BoA’s pre-qualification tool?  

 

I have a “saved application,” pending for Cash Rewards Visa and am hesitant to pull the trigger - in light of the pre-qualified message I received.  I can't help but think BoA gives these messages to every potential applicant?

Re: BoA PreQual Reliability

A preapproval will normally include a set APR%.  If it is a range of 15xx to 22xx for example, not as solid.  They also tend to use verbiage "we recommend", which is marketing.

 

Good luck!!
