Hello Everyone! BofA just converted my regular Visa card to a BofA World Points Credit Card.


Congrats! That's what I'm trying to do with my BofA student visa. I'm trying to get it converted to the Americard where it gives me a higher limit and 1.5 pts for every dollar since I have a checking account with them.

Replied by Meya on topic Hooter's, Macy's, and Bloomies, call

Hooter's, Macy's, and Bloomies, call in for a cli, you are ready for them, acutally been ready. Orchard, don't even ask for one, and the cli's are not worth $25-up. Macy's is going to show you some love, if hooter's issue you one, it may be about $200 up. I don't know much about the cli's from Bloomies, I dont like the store myself.

Replied by wildrage2 on topic So I got 5 cards

So I got 5 cards 6 months ago and 5 cards 3 months ago. I've sworn to totally stop until winter. Hopefully by that time my scores will get a 30-50 point boost with all the positives and when all the inquiries fall off. Anyway, i've been trying to get increases for the past week...not all that happy with my results:

Capital One (Dec 2007): 300 ---> 500 (CLI in March, credit steps)
Continental Finance (Nov 2007): 300 ---> 375
Access Visa (Nov 2007): 250 ---> 275 (@ first I thought it was a joke!)
Tribute MC (Nov 2007): 300 ---> 350 (granted in 4 or 5 months)
Centenial Gold MC (Nov 2007): 250 ---> 350

Hooters MC (April 2008): $600, Not Requested Yet
Macy's (March 2008): $100, Not requested Yet - will on 3 mo. anniv.
Bloomies (March 2008): $1,000, Not requested yet (will wait for auto
increase, as I don't really like this store)
Orchard Bank (Jan 2008) $300, will wait for auto increase, as I don't want
to have to pay for it!

That's it. I don't really expect much for the sub-sub primes, like Continental and and First Premier. I'm hoping to make my major gains in the upcoming year with Capital One, Hooters, and the store cards. They are the only ones that I really use. The others are sock-drawered and are used to buy a snack once in a while.

Replied by Meya on topic There are a lot of

There are a lot of people in here doing this for many reasons especially for the rewards. One of their cards has no rewards or they were just approved for another card with the same company that has better options. I really hear it with Bofa and Amex or Cap1.

I was shocked myself becasue it is a hechts card that was turned into macy's after the merger. I called Chase but they just will not budge on one of my accounts. I am thinking to do a cl movement and just consolidate the two to make one limit of 4400.00 What do you think Meya? :scared:

Get out of here, that is a good thing and has nothing to do with addiction. You are suppose to break the cli's in to the fullest. You go girl with ya bad self!
