Bank of America Credit Card Complaint

Bank of America Credit card department,

Unsolicited issuance of credit card California

On -/-/16, I called bank of America to change my platinum plus rewards card to a travel rewards card. The rep that I spoke with said that I had to open a travel rewards card and transfer the credit line from the old account to the travel rewards account once I got the card. The rep explained to me that the bank viewed my account as a whole credit line and not as separate accounts. The rep said that when I got the travel rewards card that my account credit line would be slightly reduced by the amount of the credit line that they gave me on the new card. but, he stated that once I received my new card, I could call in and have the entire credit line moved from the old account to the new account and I could close my old account. On -/-/- I received my new card and proceeded to call Bank of America to transfer my credit line but was told by the rep that I was unable to do that and that I could only do it once my balance was paid off or paid down enough to transfer the amount due. I told the rep that that was not what I was told when I opened the account. So I spoke with her manager, - and she said that she could n't do it as well. But she did open a case - and said that she escalated my problem and that they would investigate it and give me a reply by next week. I told her that I believed that her bank committed fraud by promising one thing and not delivering once I opened the new account. I told the manager I would file a complaint with the ftc.
