What's a cash credit line?The cash credit line is a portion of the total credit available on your credit card, and is the maximum available credit for Bank Cash Advance transactions. Generally, Bank Cash Advances consist of ATM Cash Advances, Over the Counter (OTC) Cash Advances, Same-Day Online Cash Advances, Overdraft protection transfers (if you have linked your credit card as a backup account for Balance Connect ® for overdraft protection), Cash Equivalents and applicable transaction fees.
How do I request a credit line increase?If your account is eligible to request a credit line increase online, you'll be able to make the request by signing in to Online Banking, selecting your credit card account, then select the Request a credit line increase link under Card Details in Account Summary. If your account is not eligible to request an increase online, please call the number on the back of your credit card.
What does "cash credit line available" mean?Your cash credit line available is the amount of money on your credit card that is currently available for you to use for bank cash advance transactions. Keep in mind that any bank cash advance transactions you have made but have not yet been processed should be subtracted from your cash credit line available.
What happens if I go over my cash credit line?If you exceed your cash credit line, you will not be able to make any more Bank Cash Advance transactions until you have paid your balance below the cash credit limit. There is no account penalty if you go over your cash credit line. Exceeding the cash credit line will not result in a fee or a higher APR, but you may experience declined transactions.
How do I know the amount of my cash credit line?You can view your cash credit line on your statement, in Online Banking on your credit card Account details page or by calling customer service.
Is it possible to increase my credit limit on my credit card prior to going on my trip?Yes, you can request an increase in your credit limit on our website or by phone.

What should I know about requesting a Balance Transfer?A Balance Transfer allows you to access up to your total available credit on your personal credit card, and pay off or pay down balances from retail/department store/gas cards, or other non- Bank of America credit cards and personal loans or lines of credit. This helps you consolidate bills, enjoy the convenience of one monthly statement and payment, and can save you money by paying down your higher-rate debt faster. Most Balance Transfers are completed in 2-4 business days. For new accounts, it takes 14 business days from opening. You can submit up to 3 Balance Transfers in each online session, however, your transfer amount cannot exceed your total credit available, so be sure to plan for applicable fees and interest charges, as well as any pending purchases, advances or transfers when determining your transfer amount.
Your account may be eligible for promotional rates too. You can check your offers anytime!

Will I receive a confirmation number when completing a Balance Transfer or Direct Deposit Cash Advance?
You won't receive a confirmation number, but you may print or capture an image of the confirmation page that displays once you complete the Balance Transfer or Direct Deposit Cash Advance request online or in the Mobile Banking app. We will send you an email to the email address on file to confirm we received your request, and a subsequent email when your approved Balance Transfer or Direct Deposit Cash Advance requests are processed. You can also check the status of your Balance Transfer and Direct Deposit Cash Advance requests at any time — just log in to Online Banking or the Mobile Banking app. If you have multiple credit card accounts, select the account you recently used to make a Balance Transfer or Direct Deposit Cash Advance. Then access the Information & Services tab and select Balance Transfer and Direct Deposit history link.
What should I know about Direct Deposit Cash Advances from my credit card?A Direct Deposit Cash Advance from your credit card allows you to deposit cash from your personal credit card in to your personal checking account with Bank of America or another bank. You can use the cash to pay for any kind of planned or unplanned expense. If you plan to use the funds to consolidate debt, you may want to consider a Balance Transfer instead because the standard rate for Balance Transfers is typically lower.
You can draw up to your total credit available, less any transaction fees and the funds are usually available in your checking account the next business day. However, in some instances, it may take up to 3 business days. For new accounts it takes 14 business days from opening. Your Direct Deposit Cash Advance amount cannot exceed your total credit available, so be sure to plan for applicable fees and interest charges, as well as any pending purchases, advances or transfers when determining your transfer amount.
Your account may be eligible for promotional rates too. You can check your offers anytime!

What are some tips for using an ATM in foreign countries?ATMs can be used to get foreign currency while traveling and may save you money when compared to buying currency at exchange rate booths. Despite the advantages, you need to be prepared for special circumstances that can arise when using an international ATM. Here are a few tips to help you on your way:
Check the network: Check your card's network. Cards in the Cirrus and Maestro networks often feature ATMs with easy-to-read instructions in English. Bank of America belongs to the Global ATM Alliance.
Research the country: There are some countries where ATM transactions are blocked. Please research the country to verify whether you will be able to use your credit card.
Understand the types of fees charged: Fees may be incurred for using the ATM and there may also be fees for currency conversion and cash advance. It is usually better to make fewer larger transactions instead of multiple smaller ones.
Make sure your PIN is valid: Some ATMs only allow 4-digit PINs. If your current PIN is longer than 4 digits, you may need to get a new PIN before you start your trip.
Have a backup plan: Some ATMs limit your access to a primary checking account, so have an alternative means of making purchases such as using foreign currency, traveler's cheques or a debit card.
Additional tips: Remember that not all foreign ATMs offer instructions in English. If you are unable to use a foreign ATM, you may be able to use your credit card to make a cash advance at a local bank. Finally please note that some business card accounts may not have cash availability; check with your Authorized Contact or Program Administrator before you leave the country.
