BoA Secured Visa

Here is a new one for me..... I decided to try with BoA again but with a secured Visa. I've read nothing but good things in this forum about them. I never bothered to apply for an unsecured.. Filled out the app and received a message that they needed more time to review and that it could be up to 30 days before I would receive a response either way.. I was sure this was a denial.  I used their "app status update" online and even called CS.  The online reply was my info didn't match their records... the CSR told me it was going to be at least 2 weeks before I heard anything...... I noticed tonight BoA  ACHed the deposit from my checking...  Still haven't seen a email or verbal response... maybe the withdrawal was an error on BoA's part?

Yep. If they have processed the withdrawal, you got the card. It will arrive in 10 to 14 days. Congrats!

If they took the money out you are good to go. Now Call the backdoor number and have the card changed to the 123 rewards. What will happen they will acutally send you out two cards. It makes no sense I know but trust me the rewards are really good for a secured card. 

AMEX PRG NPSL,Lowes $17000,Capital One venture card $12,000,Us Airways mastercard $9500,Fidelity Amex $9000, Discover it $8000, Capital One Venture One $7500, BOA 123 rewards $7500 CSP $6000, Capital One Quicksliver $5500, Amazon Store card$5000,Barclay
Card Ring $5000 Chase Marriott $5000,Chase Hyatt $5000, Sallie Mae Mastercard $4400, Paypal smart connect $4000,Chase Freedom $3200, Capital one Quicksliver visa $3000, Chase IHG Rewards $2300, Chase Southwest Premier $2000, Citi Double Cash $1500, AMEX BCE $1000
