That's like not confirming reservations you have made. Not really. Its more like ordering food and being told it will be delivered within 30 minutes, then calling back after 10 minutes and wondering where your pizza is.

Not really. I never asked where my credit is. It's more like ordering food, then remembering how much trouble you've had with this company delivering exactly what you ordered, and you still refuse to pass up a great deal, so before it's too late you call back to confirm they heard your order correctly. But thanks for keeping the rant going, I'm glad we weren't finished telling everyone how stupid they are for worrying for five minutes over a potential $100.

damnit I can't believe this is dead

I received my $100 bonus on 01/15/2008. I opened the account on 12/31/2007. No problems whatsoever. Thanks BOFA and Fat wallet.

Technique said:I opened my account back in late December as well, but no bonus yet. However, I did not make my $25 purchase until Jan 7, 2008. My next statement cycles Feb 11. I'm hoping for the full $100 then...

What's the best way to collect this $100 besides making purchases totaling $100?

Same here, no bonus for me or my wife yet. As far as the $100, I've had success in asking that a credit balance on a different BOA card be transferred to my BOA checking account. The CSR told me that I couldn't have done it myself online, or else I would have incurred cash advance fees, but they could do it on their end without any problem. Took about 5 business days. I plan to do the same with this card once the $100 credit posts.

I applied for and was approved on December 24. Made two purchases ($18 + $13) on January 4, 2008, and still have not received the bonus. Do I have to make a purchase that is over $25, or can two purchases that sum to over $25 count as the same thing?

I opened my account on Dec 27.

I bought 4 new tires at Costco on 1/17, the bonus has not showed up yet. I will post back when it does.
