I have an open Alaska Card several months old with 12K CL.
Should I close before 2BM, or unnecessary?

Not sure why you thought it was not possible BoA went AmEx on us...
This can still happen in the next five minutes. All we have is past experience. See second post of this thread.  ;)

You can start complaining once hundreds of other people start posting that their bonuses are posting. :P
Not complaining, just stated a fact.

NJ TU?

For NJ BoA will pull EX, unless you have it locked.  If you do it'll require a phone call to BoA asking them to pull a different bureau, which they will do without issue.

1 - Close and have a better chance of two instant approvals.
2 - Leave open and use as leverage for two approvals.

Won't they want to know why I am closing an Alaska CC to open an Alaska CC?

Also, if I close, do I need to leave some time for my card to be "flushed" out of the system?

25k Alaska miles just hit my account.  I last had a personal Alaska card 3 months ago.

Which day did you get approved by the way?

A day or two before this thread started.  Was sent the targeted email from a contact and applied immediately before the news hit the blogs and public forums.

Leverage as moving CL to make sure you get two Sig cards. Just have a reason why you need three of the same card in case they ask.

No idea on the second question.

Wondering if I should try for a 3rd card with bofa-say virgin. If I  apply and recon today could I get away with 3rd card with still only 1 hit?

Is BofA the most lax when it comes to approving credit cards? The denials are few and far between after HUCAing.
