This applies to BoA debit cards across the board. My facebook lit up with friends who all are switching to BECU. My partner and I have had the AS Debit card with BoA and we both opened up accounts at BECU today.
I would love to see AS partner with BECU. I think that the real reason a BoA Debit Card exists is because the CC partnership exists and I know that BoA does do quite a bit of sponsorship for the card as it makes them a good deal of money.
