BofA makes sport of harming your credit score.

Credit Karma Member

BofA, thank you for informing me that my June 2023 credit card application was denied, and for the advice on how I might better "understand and improve" my credit rating through "better money habits." But, since my credit score is always in the excellent range, I don't believe I am in need of that advice. I applied for this card because BofA sent me several prescreened invitations to do so. In fact, I am already a BofA credit card holder, I use my card several times monthly (even though it offers zero rewards) and I have never been late on a payment at any bank. And as I mentioned, my credit score is excellent. Last week, I received another of your prescreened offers so I applied. And now, I received your email that I was declined, again (similar experience with another BofA card last year.) I'm curious—if anger can be considered curiosity—why do you keep sending me pre-screened offers for new cards, just to decline my application? You already knew my credit score (which is always in the excellent range, with no negative reporting—ever.) Are you not aware that asking me to apply for more cards from you, only to deny my application (despite me excellent credit rating) harms my credit report? You have now done this to my credit report twice in the past 2 years. I check my credit report regularly and I know that there is nothing of concern, and if you have prescreened me with a soft pull then you surely already knew my credit score. In fact, you have done at least two hard pulls on my credit score in the last year or so, so you already knew every relevant aspect of my credit report before you sent me more prescreened invitations. Why then, did you send me this round of incessant letters begging for me to apply for this new card if I don't meet your criteria? Moreover, how many applicants' credit reports do you regularly harm with these unnecessary hard pulls, just because the applicant responded to your barrage of prescreened offers, and then submitted their largely pre-filled (by BofA) application? Clearly, the answer is: too many. I have had this experience with none of my other credit card providers, just you. Please learn how to how to prescreen more effectively so that your practice of pointlessly harming applicants credit scores is no longer your norm, as evidenced by all the negative reviews you have for this very practice. In the meantime, you can find examples of my reviews of BofA for this type of irresponsible behavior online, at sites including WalletHub, ConsumerAffairs, CreditKarma, and YouTube.
