Here’s how you can get a Bank of America credit limit increase:
If you're unsatisfied with your initial Bank of America credit card limit, you may get a higher one later on. Bank of America periodically reviews accounts for an automatic credit limit increase. These reviews typically occur after you've had the card for at least six months. Automatic increases are not guaranteed, however. How much of an increase you'd receive depends on your payment history, existing debt, and other factors.
You can also request a Bank of America credit limit increase through your online account or by calling the number on the back of your card. Your chances of getting a credit limit increase will be best if you've paid your credit card bills on time and in full during the last six months.

When you request a credit limit increase, Bank of America will pull a copy of your credit report. This will trigger a soft inquiry and won't affect your score.
