What's the thread about bofa taking away points and closing accounts ?
Is that not something to be nervous about.
I have two cards that I opened a year ago and the annual fee is due but I still never used the miles.
Should I be concerned to close them?
Any other choices?

If first year AF was paid just downgrade them.

It might take a few calls, but it can be downgraded to the travel rewards card.

Yes. I never even had a US-address based Alaska account, they linked it to an old AS account with a Canadian address attached. Ridiculous.

I got 3 personal about 2 weeks ago. I know it's not this week, but hard to believe much has changed since then.
Was it via instant approval?

Ime, you can't transfer CL until the new accounts are fully opened in the system. Can take a few days for that to Happen.

I was told by multiple CSR, and supervisors that they don't pull your credit again, when shifting CL.
iirc I didn't get another pull when I did it, but I'd have to double check to make sure.

So I got the witch of witches. She said there is no chance she can move anything and wanted to potentially close the 2nd one I was approved for.
I quickly got off the phone with her.
She and others claim its a duplicate error and they cannot transfer anything. Yeeesh
Also, does the business card show up under the same check status?

Multiple apps. almost always come up as duplicate. You just recon. and they resubmit the app.

I recently did a biz app, and it wasn't by the online check status of app.
