Bank of America - Royal Caribbean Platinum Plus Visa Card Review Summary
If you like to take cruises, then the Bank of America Royal Caribbean Platinum Plus Visa could be the credit card for you. This travel reward credit card helps members earn onboard credits that can be exchanged for merchandise and services when taking a Royal Caribbean Cruise. Reviewers like the credits and they also like the double credits that are earned whenever you charge a Royal Caribbean product or service, along with the cabin upgrades for members. But the Bank of America Royal Caribbean Platinum Plus Visa has its flaws, and reviewer comments range from “Awesome Card, Wonderful Benefits, and Good Customer Service”, to “They Make it Really Difficult to Use Rewards”. Among the problems mentioned, the ones that annoy cardusers the most are the tendency of Bank of America to not honor the awards for upgrades and to fail to keep its word on other promises. Thus, if you expectations are any more than average, you may come away from this Credit Card experience with a negative feeling overall.
