MIA, FWIW, I just had my (essentially dormant and unused) BofA PLAT VISA "enhanced" (migrated) to a BofA WorldPoints M/C card.
Besides the unusual aspects of the V being migrated to M/C (I knew Citibank got into a spat w/ V a few years ago and migrated all of my C-bank cards to M/C) , and this being a no-annual-fee "feeless" affinity card (a rare combination in my experience), I am wondering how BofA "got to me" on this ? I was naturally leery and I think could have declined the "migration", but proceed to activate the new card.
"Enhancements", as we all know, are 99.9999% of the time DIS-enhancements for the consumer and tilted only to the card-issuer. But - this seems like a genuine (albeit slight) enhancement, since I don't plan to accumulate much in the worldpoints program per se.
===================================
Q to you: any quick opinions of the worldpoints program ? I see mixed opinions on it in this thread, but if the $750 CAP for a domestic 25K award is true, this actually is more liberal than my USAA Eagle Points program whcich caps at $500 for a 25K (and $500 these days is limiting), BOTH still having 21-day advance and SAT stayover rules in place. Any quick ideas of what this migration is doing (presumably adding more gotchas, trick clauses, etc) on the card side ?
FYI - I am still moving heavily away from my starwood AMEX now and focusing strictly on 2% cash back via my Sam's Club Discover card(s). An almost-pure 2% w/ $1M CAP per account is about as strong a card as I have found for cash-back, including superior to Costco's cash-back program. Starwood really upset the apple cart for me w/ their Feb 28, 2007 devaluation, and I am still stinging w/ my balances at that time being devalued by as much as 25-35% (my calculations), so lesson learned (don't get too deep into any program).
But thought I would ask your opinion on worldpoints. TIA
P.S. Don't mean to hijack this thread, but in this "all other" folder its tough to follow specific threads.
