No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Not going to do this, but do you think they'd let you open multiple Better Balance Rewards cards? $25 a quarter for nothing isn't bad..
No..They won't. Unless if you have multiple SSNs.

Not at all true. I know this for a fact. I have two of them. I don't know if I'll get the bonus on both, but we shall see.
I PC'd one of them from Cash Rewards to it.
Well, unless if you PC another BOA card, i guess. I do know that they won't just approve you for 2 balance transfer rewards cards lol.

Maybe so! I was shocked to see it changed on my login.. I was like oh wow they did actually go through with the PC and not just delete it like I thought they had.
I find myself not utilizing BoA cards at all so it's nice to have them both be the BBR card. I hope I'm getting the bonus on two of them as it would be nice to have a free phone bill every now and then.. haha!
I have 3. Yes, you get double/triple bonuses.
One of mine was a new app (MC when I only held a Visa), but BoA is very duplicate (read: churning) friendly. The 3rd BBR was a PC.
A great strategy I learned on here is to app for a BoA rewards card and then downgrade to the no fee BBR once it becomes obsolete. It's much more efficient than simply SDing!
i guess ill get my reward if i pay $1 and charge $1 before it closes

Yep. I charge 5-10 each month and pay it down to 1 let the statement close and then pay the 1 buck..rinse and repeat.

Why do you pay it down to $1? I understand the implications of going under "1," but that's another topic. What's the difference between letting it report a balance of $5 or $10 or $1? Am I missing something?

I'm also unclear on why OP is doing that. Maybe so it will report as 1% (as opposed to 2%??).
In related news, someone reported that BoA never forgives small balances (i.e. 50 cents). This is a good thing, since this rewards program requires a balance to be due.
