Our Verdict
There have been 50,000 offers in the past, although these were meant to be targeted so I doubt we’ll see these again unless Bank of America/Alaska Airlines makes another slip up. Previously the best offer has been 30,000 miles (just recently released) or 25,000 miles + $100 statement credit.
Before applying for this card or asking questions in the comments, I’d recommend you read about these 20 things everybody should know about Bank of America credit cards. One of the main benefits of Bank of America is that you can apply for multiple cards from them in the same day and they will be merged into a single inquiry. You might want to pair this offer with the $200 cash offer on their Cash Rewards card. I’d be careful applying for multiple Alaska cards as some people have had their points forfeit and accounts shut down, although some of these shut downs seem to be more a result of annual fee shenanigans.
If anybody finds a direct link for this offer, please let me know in the comments.
Hat tip to Frequent Miler
Is this 30K + $100 link good for the current free companion ticket promotion?
Doesn’t look like it
I applied, was approved and was sent a card with CL of $1200 and told that I can only receive 5k miles after $1000 spend. This seems very unfair to me and a waste of a hard pull, any suggestions what to do??
I applied for this card along with the MERRILL+ card a week or so ago and and was approved for both. However, when I received the Alaska card in the mail, it was actually the Visa Platinum version with a much smaller bonus. After calling in I was told that this was because I had too much credit from the MERRILL+ card (my first application) and was automatically given an Alaska card with a lower limit instead.
cant you move over some credit?
I applied ~2 weeks ago, and received the card today. Called to activate and was told the bonus offer is only 30K miles after $1K spent, but definitely no $100 statement credit…
It was definitely on the landing page when I applied, so I’ll wait and see if it ends up appearing despite what the CSR said. If not, CFPB I guess?
Your “direct” (and as far as I can only remaining working) link shows 30000 miles after $1000 spend, not after first purchase. So the $1000 spend is required for both the 30000 miles and the $100 credit.
Yet all over your website (including in the new credit cards for under $1000 spend) you still say it’s 30000 miles for first purchase.
Offer has changed, thanks for letting me know. I’ve updated both posts :).
I Apply for the credit card from a link in your page that offers 50,000 miles total, 25,000 on your approval and 25,000 after you spend 1000 on the first 90 days, I got the firs 25000 but I didn’t get the other 25000 miles, I waste hours of my time speaking to the bank and Alaska and I don’t get nothing extra, unfortunately at that time I had an offer for 30000 miles but I opted to apply thru your link and I Loos.
What link of ours shows 50k miles total?
BoA is such a rip off. Do not apply for this card they will give you the Platinum Plus version just to screw you. Complete idiots and I’m glad that I’m done with BoA. I don’t churn cards. 775 EX score when approved for the BoA Alaska Airlines Card, $100k income, and existing BoA Siggy with $13k limit (12 year old account w/ $0 balance). Utilization 2%. 3 inquires within the last 6 months.
They gave me a $2k limit and told me there was “nothing” they could do. Complained to CFPB and CEO via email. Bait and Switch.
I was only approved for a $2k CL, which obviously means I didn’t get the Signature; however, when I called BOFA, they confirmed that the original offer (of 30k+$100) was still tied to my account. Is that possible, or DROPR?
Can I apply for the personal 30k offer and the busniess card 25k offer on the same day and get 1 hard pull?
Yup, should work https://www.doctorofcredit.com/card-issuers-that-combine-multiple-credit-pullsinquiries/#Bank_of_America
That should work, but I’d wait. I think they are making changes to business card as well.
last month applied for 3 cash rewards CCs & got only $1k CL, what’s the chance to get a signature CC with $5k CL? or would likely be a Plus with a lower CL?
