(Update 9/15/23: The $20 credits posted today)
Bank of America has announced that the Better Balance Rewards Card is being discontinued and will be forcibly converted to Bank of America Unlimited Cash Rewards World Mastercard credit card on May 16, 2023. Bank of America sent out the following letter:
We want to let you know that your Better Balance Rewards credit card will become a Bank of America Unlimited Cash Rewards World Mastercard credit card because the Better Balance Rewards® program is being discontinued.
What this means to you
After May 16, we’ll mail you a new Bank of America® Unlimited Cash Rewards credit card to replace your existing card. Continue using your existing card until your new card arrives and remember to destroy your existing card once you activate the new one.
Your last Better Balance Rewards Quarterly Cash Reward will be paid in April; however, if your account is open and you continue to make qualifying payments from April 1 through May 15, we will reward you with a one-time statement credit of $20.
Did everyone get the spend $1000, get $200 offer?
I called the number on the back of my new Unlimited Cash Rewards card and successfully converted it to Customized Cash Rewards.
P2 just called and the CSR refused to do the product change. Will try HUCA.
$20 account credit here too..posted on the 14th.
I was so confused about the $20 credit lol… just did the $200 conversion promo offer and stopped using it
Same $20 account credit here too..posted on the 14th.
Is this unlimited cash back Mastercard available for product change to a customized cashback card?
Yes, but there might be a cooldown period if you just converted from the BBR.
Yes.
I was able to convert them couple of months back to CCR and got the 20$ credit as well. It took a few tries to get the cards converted. I was told that I am not eligible. But after a few tries was able to convert.
Yes, I converted both of mine just last week.
I did not receive. Called and was initially told that she couldn’t find evidence I was eligible and she had to check notes on the account. Eventually said I was eligible and I’d receive $20 by September 30th. I assume she’s lying, but I guess I have to wait 2 weeks to see.
I understand… I was expecting a statement credit. I didn’t receive it (I checked my account) and was told I’d get it by Sep 30. It’s also possible that she just didn’t want to admit they screwed up, so she put in a request for the money and told me b to wait 2 weeks and then pretended nothing went wrong.
this is hard to read. please use proper punctuations.
Good Cow, Whether its hard to read or not is not important. My computer is already lagging as is when typing that I can’t even see a cursor showing the current position when I type this. And I am only trying to help so I have no obligation whatsoever to type in the way you please as I am not paid to be perfect when responding. And who made you the grammar police. Learn proper netiquette which is the standard rules for online communications at coursedesign.colostate.edu/obj/corerulesnet.html and don’t post one liners or useless comments.
The point is it is 16 weeks from receiving the card if you read footnote 5 on the March 15, 2023 letter. It’s not 16 weeks from the card conversion date. The same letter also mentions they will not begin sending the cards out until May 16, 2023. So unless you received the card on May 16, 2023, it would not have been 16 weeks yet as September 14, 2023 is basically a May 25, 2023 date of receiving the card.
I was a little perplexed to see
Good Cow write that about you when they didn’t capitalize properly in their comment.
I got mine today as well, as a credit card statement vs a deposit into my checking account.
Yeah, I usually got $30 deposited to my BofA checking account. Another ripoff!
i got it today.
I got a $200 spend offer for $1,000 a few months ago. Had that card for like a decade.
I got both
So did I.
