Damnit and I have a MBNA... They were so good with rewards and limits.
If BofA takes over say good bye to 1. actual service 2. understanding 3. removal of over limit fees. Say hello to 1. cheezy service that was learned in the handbook 2. four senior bankers and a branch manager to approve a decision 3. extra fees

I hate Bank of Assholes with a passion!!!!
