When I applied for the Bank of Americaย Alaska Airlines Credit Card to avoid missingย out on the limited-time sign-up bonus offer, I was concerned about having 5 credit cards within 24 months. Because this will go against the notorious Chase 5/24 Rule. Once theย Alaska Airlines Credit Card shows up on my credit report, it will put me at exactly 5 cards in 24 months, and Chase will see that and will not approve me for any new Chase credit card applications. Therefore, the time it takes for Bank of America to report a new account to all three credit bureaus is critical.ย
