If you are applying for a personal Alaska card, and are not an expert on applying for Alaska cards STOP, don't apply yet.
Instead, read this post. Doing that first may save you a huge amount of wasted time and frustration.
A few people in the Alaska Airlines forum have in the past received personally targeted, single-use links for a 50k offer
when they opt-in to "Partner Offers" in their Mileage Plan account preferences.

BUSINESS CARDS
30k mile offer, $75 AF, $1k spend, no foreign transaction fees:
https://www.bankofamerica.com/smallb...-credit-card//
Note: There are two different earning formats for the business card, which you choose when you apply:
To avoid billing confusion later, make sure you choose the Individual Level Earning Plan if you are not going to have employee cards under the same account as your account.
Also see the Applying for Business Credit Cards [Consolidated] thread (not-BofA-specific) for general tips on applying for business cards.

Business card Recon Line:
866-695-6598 (8-7 EST M-F from what I was told)

Credit Enquiries for Personal cards come from BofA. Enquiries for business cards come from FIA. Credit bureaus usually merge enquiries from the same requester made on the same day. Enquiries from BofA and FIA will not be merged.
When do the initial bonus miles post? You will get the miles after the statement closes for the cycle in which you meet your minimum spend. Usually AS points show up the Sunday evening after your statement closes, but sometimes it takes an additional week.
If there's a statement credit, when does it post?
It seems to be batch-processed. It will post automatically. Can be on the same statement or the next statement. It does not appear to be based on the statement close date.

I currently have 2 personal AS cards and 1 business AS card.
Do I need to cancel any cards before I apply for one more personal and one more business AS cards?

Still dead on my wife's account too. It just says that all agents are helping others. when I log in with my account it says that chat is only available till 8pm so it's closed. I also have preferred status with BOA while my wife does not. Not sure if there's anything to that though.

Good luck, I've tried calling 3 times and each rep said it's not possible to PC to BBR, must apply for the card as a new account. You might luck out if you HUCA but it seems they are really drilling that into them lately...

Was doing chat today to lower a limit on one of my AS accounts and asked about my wife's account. Reply from the chat agent:

As of right now there is not a way for clients that are not Preferred Rewards to chat or email. Right now the only method for her would be the phone.
