A very strange thing happened today. I was trying to get the AF removed on one of my cards (signed up using the link in the wiki). The rep claims no fee for first year on that acct, it will only be billed in 2016?!

You did have the rep note your account?

Are you planning a trip sometime soon? Seems like you are going a little too fast, especially with BofA. You can always do what you want and nobody can stop you, but maybe slow down a little and make it last longer.

How useful have people found HUCA to be here?

I tried and the rep right away said - oh - I see you called earlier today - hang on - she put me on hold and talked to the rep I'd spoken with earlier and then came back on the line saying: As Stephanie told you earlier today, etc etc etc.

Have ya'll had an easier time? I find when there system is so quick to point out to the rep that you just called etc it's pretty hard to cal up and play dumb.

You can try saying that you really want the card and that's why you called back.

You can try calling a different recon number too.

Failing at HUCA right now. They keep saying, "We see you were approved for a card back in March."

Was it a problem that I left that card open or it makes no difference?

Any way around this? Close it now?

You left it open as an Alaska card, or a travel rewards ?

That's the issue. I always close or disgrace the old Alaska cards, before churning. If you close, or downgrade them now, it can't hurt to try calling again in a few weeks.

1. How will it help? Won't they still see the approval even if the card is closed?
2. I did 2 aps last night (after midnight). Should I do a third right now, wait a while and try to get all three approved?

Hmm. I applied for my first two Alaska cards in the middle of March and was only able to downgrade 1 to travel rewards. Applied again in May and though I had to close the cards to free up credit, they never said "I see you applied for 'x' cards in March...". So as it seems to continue to be the case, YMMV with BofA and Alaska.
