BofA Credit Reallocation

How is BofA with moving credit to another line and closing the card?

 

I have a BofA Royal Caribbean with a $6000 limit and want to move it to my BofA Travel Rewards that has a $5000 limit. Both are new accounts.

 

Would like to covert to the 321 down the road...if thats possible.

Several years ago BoA allowed me to do this very thing but I'm not sure what their policy is today.

No problem.  They will require you to keep a small CL on the account you are closing ($500 I believe) and transfer the rest.  You can also move CL on multiple cards at the same time but you will burn a HP

So it's no problem to move one credit card line to another but it's a HP to move multiple? Wow. Why dont you just make two separate phone calls?

Will it work if both are less than 30 days old? I know Amex requires 13 months from donor card.

I apologize if I was not clear.  Any CL move requires a HP.  My comment was that you could  move CL between multiple accounts not that it required  an additional HP

**Update**

 

Just called...quick and painless. Moved all but the required $200 over. Closed my Royal Caribbean and now my Travel rewards card has $10,800. I am not not gonna complain one bit!  No mention of a hard pull. Only wanted to verify income/housing status.
