So I decided to switch the card and I waited the new card that was mailed with standard upsp mail with no tracking number Since the first card was lost or stolen, then I requested a reshipment of the new card by ups or fedex and they shipped the card again and I have activated the card on 22 or XX/XX/2021 and I wanted to spent {$1000.00} however I have then contacted bofa livechat " support '' to be sure that card was active and they told me that my new switched card was not linked with a promotional bonus offer of {$200.00} / with {$1000.00} purchases as described in the promotional email that was sent by bank of america, so the promotional offer was not linked to the new switched card because of a bofa bug or similar error I attach the pdf file of the promotional email that was sent by bofa They have to correctly fix/apply the promotional bonus offer of $ 200/w a total of {$1000.00} in combined purchases, Since the promotional bonus offer was not correctly applied/linked to my new/switched car I'm willing to spend {$1000.00} as agreed for {$200.00} bonus offer, but only after they confirm that promotional offer was fixed/applied to the new/switched credit card I reserve the right to post further complaints, since a promo offer must be real and not an un usable promo
