Bank of America Credit Card Complaint

Bank of America Credit card department,

Unsolicited issuance of credit card Michigan

I applied for the Alaska Mileage Plan Visa Signature card though Bank of America and my application went to pending. After calling one of their credit specialists, I was told that I was approved for the card. However, a week later I received a different inferior card in the mail with a different opening bonus ( the Alaska Mileage Plan Visa Platinum ). I called and spoke with a Bank of America representative and was told that I already had too much credit with them when applying for the new card and was therefore given a card with a lower limit. At no time during the approval process was I told that they were giving me a different card, as I would not have agreed. This felt like a bait and switch. I then immediately cancelled the new card to avoid having to pay the annual fee. I was told there was no way to remove the account from my credit report, even though it was not the one for which I applied.
