Bank of America Credit Card Complaint

Credit line increase/decrease

Bank of America Credit card department,

Credit line increase/decrease North Carolina

I have an account with Bank of America and recently I got a letter in the mail stating that my credit limit was decreased and that they did a random review and decided upon that. I then called the company stating that because they did decrease the limit my debt to credit ratio will be higher. I was assured because I have not used the card it would not be up. Well a week later I got a statement stating that my bill will go from $58.00 to $150.00 this is all in the span of a week. I reached out to several associates including a supervisor and the companies consolidation firm and was told I didnt qualify for anything because I had a great payment history. I was confused because the increase on my low income would be hard to pay considering my budget. I was also told that if I can afford one payment I could afford the other and try government agencies like welfare and food stamps. I have never had a company decrease my limit and had a huge jump in payment when the card hasnt been used in months.
