Bank of America Reviews

DREADFUL experience!. We are undergoing a recent terrible and costly experience with the Bank of America and it remains unresolved three weeks later. They have "lost" US 80,000 dollars sent from 2 remitters in Norway to a Bank of America account holder and after a 3-week delay they have done nothing to recover the funds or recall/ send them back. We "think", they possibly froze the money or suspended it doing a KYC check and failed to inform the sender or the recipient of their activities. Unacceptable!

Absolutely horrid customer service. Every customer service representative is looking for ways NOT to help. Every reason under the sun for why they CANNOT help you. Same experience whether you go into a banking center or you call. Total waste of time. If you call, it takes 15 min just to authenticate you. For two factor authentication over the phone, you MUST have a cell phone which will accept text messages right then. They offer no other way to authenticate. This, after you provide all info such as phone pin (what is the use of this if not to authenticate?!), social security number, name, address, employer and answer all kinds of ridiculous questions. Height of ridiculousness. Interest rates are laughable compared to what other banks are offering today.

In a nutshell, BofA has become very difficult to work with, non-customer focused and honestly does not exemplify the traditional meaning of a bank. Here are just a few items that all add up to my complete dis-satisfaction:

Despite having an excellent credit score, it took forever to get a credit line increase. You call up the customer service and they just keep you on hold forever and no one has any answers to your questions. Total waste of time.

When I asked why is bank is not reporting paying my bills on time but they don't report you have a credit card or credit from us so you're out of luck. They keep asking questions over and they overdraft my account again, again, 35.00, 35.00, 35.00

BOA was very easy to work with and was very easy to get in touch with....they called us back immediately and were very responsive to our needs. Another company didn't even return the calls for a few days, therefore missed out on a refi.

Start my BoA acc since 2001, till today 3/12/20 I ended my account as they are nothing but vampire. Lost my phone last week but then I pay the next day and call them kindly to waive the late fee and explain to them what happened. They told me they can't waive the fees as losing my phone is an not a good excuses! Can you believe that?! You have no idea what that be when people suffer during Coronavirus outbreak in the city but you don't even help and you won't even think to pardon just one first time late fee waive. I told the supervisor, "Not even waive it as this is my first time?" Surprising the answer is No, they are more happy to end my services at the end, they have to left me no choice and closed all my account, You know what? I will have people to know that this is how boa treat their customer, how you call this a customer services.

Bank of America is very easy to work with, both on our mortgage and our HELOC. We've had a couple of mortgages with them and they've worked as expected. At one point our mortgage was going to go up because the escrow was getting low. We added some money to the escrow and kept our payment low because they informed well in advance about this situation.

I don't know what services Bank of America thinks they are rendering by charging me 12 dollars a month, on an account that I rarely use. They only do it when your balance falls below some arbitrary threshold which seems to change. Obviously their money harvesting algorithm is still slow to deposit money and picks and chooses which amounts to process when, so that their service fee will overdraft your account if at all possible, and then they can tack on another 35 or so bucks for their absolutely stellar services. This bank is trash. Unless you never could contemplate having to utilize all of YOUR money in a given account, dont use Bank of Fakemerica, it will cost you 144 dollars a year. They have learned nothing from the class action law suit, and continue to use scam tactics and horrible business practices. Do not recommend.

My experience was not favorable. I was going through a divorce and at the time I would have been able to qualify on my own but B of A would not consider it helping me. Even calling several times to no success. My ex was willing to sign the right docs to remove himself from the loan. Of course this occurred in 2009 2010 when the market fell flat. The home ended up in a short sale and I lost everything and it caused me a credit issue. 6 months later I'm told they could of helped me through with the Fannie Mae. I lost most of my inheritance fixing my home of 18 years that I got zilch for.

Bank of America is a good place but it's hard to get loans and when you do its high interest rates but they do work with you once you're in their investments with merrell and lynch or just everyday.

The loan officer Alexa ** made all the difference I feel - she was able to close the loan with the best terms and on time. It involves international fund transfers and I could see other banks struggle to understand.

This was the most inept company as far as getting to the issues on problems with a foreclosure that I have ever seen. They had no one that could speak to the problems that were occurring in trying to resolve and issue and no one there to pass on too. They are terrible.

I was never late on my mortgage and loved the fact that I could go into the bank to pay if I had forgotten to mail it it. Without any prior notice, I was informed that my mortgage had been sold. I haven't refinanced because I don't want to pay the application/closing fee for a new mortgage, so I feel like I am stuck with the 3rd party mortgage company that has my mortgage.

Bank of America had our loan. They took over from Countrywide and they kept miss applying payments and adding fees to our account. We made a couple of complaints to the Bank Comptroller, then they sold it to Nation Star dba Mr. Cooper. Thank goodness I paid off the loan in 2017.

I was initially approved for a mortgage, so I shopped around for a home and I found one. I put $2,000.00 down on the home I found. After about 85 days of being approved and my credit rating of 800+, I was preparing for the closing and they suddenly denied me a $60,000 mortgage on a $155,000 home. I already had over most of the money for the home but they declined my mortgage, so I had to tap in my 401K retirement fund so I would not lose the home I found and the $2,000 deposit, I put down on it. They were uncaring and were awful to work with.

My mortgage was assumed by Bank of America when Countrywide mortgages ceased to do business. My mortgage increased without any explanation. When I inquired, they stumbled and gave me the run around. I’d NEVER do business with Bank of America again.

This is the worst bank that you can bank with in the US. As an immigrant, you get excited about choosing this bank because it has "America" on its name. But beware, this is a shark eating bank. They will deny a check, that was $3 short and charge you $35 in overdraft fees even though you have money remitted to the account on the same day. Please bank with local banks. This is a giant corporation that doesn't care a hoot about their customers. Please avoid them like Ebola!

They do not always apply your payments to your mortgage. Payments "get lost". Then this goes on for a while until they try to take your home from you. Foreclosure. They are not available to discuss with you. Never call back.

Bank of America is the worst when it comes to setting credit cards on autopay. I have spent hours and several phone calls with personal bankers and vps to help me to no avail! I have more than 30 business accounts/credit cards and yet can't seem to figure their mess. I hate them!

Absolutely would not recommend this bank for a small business. I have a small business SDVOSB, I live overseas and am unable to login to their site, when I call the 888 number it takes more than ten calls just to get through. Insult to injury call waiting times are usually more than 15 minutes. The local branch I sent the account up with in order to have a person and phone number is not able to assist. I am forced to use a 888 number that as mentioned above is virtually impossible to access. Caveat Emptor with this "business banking".

My experience with this Bank of America is disappointing. In 2010 due to a sudden death of my late mother, there’s was no will but a quitclaim, unfortunately the bank did want to work with me any longer, it took a lot of attorneys and money every time I had to fill out a modification just to turn me down. This went on for years and managed to sell the notes to other banks so I can start over again.? This was a complete nightmare, I would not recommend this bank to anyone for a mortgage, because they're fraudulent.

My second mortgage was purchased by Bank of America and I was impressed at how easy they were to make payments to and deal with while they had my mortgage. Unfortunately, they sold it to a less reputable company without warning and once I wasn't a customer, stopped answering my emails. If they had excellent service, they would have continued doing so even though they sold my mortgage, but at that point they didn't care.

They hound you for a nickel...they want your assets, your home. BOA rude and threatening. I believe they do not want to work with you...they rather want your house. They have been warned and fined. Never use them, protect your assets. They charge 125.00 on a late bill. It’s criminal.

Too many to list. Been a customer since its predecessor 'Nations Bank'. Customer service is very poor, reps are rude and there's a long wait for a live person to come online. Banking centers are ill-staffed, if you want to meet anyone in person. Avoid this bank if you can, try Chase.

Great experience in dealing with Bank of America. The process was made smooth and simple, though lot of paperwork. The person who helped us was very flexible with the timings. I highly recommend to others.

Bank of America has shielded information in past as they supposedly sold the mortgage services to a third party collector when in good standing with their company which led to fraudulent transactions, charges, and other behaviors. The 3rd party company was not a bank nor were they regulated by federal government or agencies at the time. Ultimately leading to me losing my home to a person that legally had no rights to said property as it was stolen from me along with my belongings in the home. I was charged various fees, escrow was depleted, and with multiple complaints to higher authorities resulted in no avail.

Deposited my monthly payroll check via app the first time. They held for 10 days!! Went into branch and they said 2 day hold, with $200 avail next day. NOW changed to 10 days. I will have to pay $90 in late fees for rent, can't get gas, food, pay any Bills for 10 days. CUSTOMER SERVICE didnt care, won't offer a solution & told me speaking to a supervisor won't help. They will tell me same thing & stated branch should not have told me differently!!! I'm a single person with only my income and on a tight budget. WTF!! This is the worst experience I have EVER had.

I deposited my student financial aid check into my Bank of America checking account at the branch located 2821 Pfingsten Rd, Glenview, IL 60026 on 02/27/2020. Before depositing my student financial aid check, I asked the bank teller how long will it take my check to clear as I am a current Chase Bank Customer also, and I cannot wait or have a hole placed on my student aid check. I continued informing the bank teller, I am travelling out of the country and need immediate access to my funds. I also expressed, if my funds will not be made available to me immediately (within 1-3 days) by Bank of America, I will deposit my funds into my Chase Banking Account. The bank teller at Bank of America informed me that my funds will be available the next day, 02/28/2020.

Had an insurance claim and they were just plain rude about signing my check so I paid off my mortgage and went to another bank. I would never recommend them to anyone nor would I ever go there for a loan or for an account. Rip off artists.

They offered a free checking account to make it easy to pay the mortgage and I believe they offered a free safety deposit box as well. I enjoyed having them as my mortgage holder. The free items did help..I felt appreciated as a customer.

It was a pleasure working with them. They are Nationwide, have lower rates and have applicable discounts. Very professional wonderful company. I recommend that all potential home buyers go through Bank of America.

The Bank of America is one of the worst banks in the world the leadership. Stole money from me when I had account in it in the 1980'S and never tried to return the money, every time I deposited the money it had to take over a hundreds of dollars for them and it is the truth.

BOA processes your payments when they feel like so they can charge you overdraft fee. Why are they allowed to make billions twice on your money. Never bank with them. Billing department very disrespectful and unprofessional. I

Do not use Bank of America for an RV or vehicle loan! Bank of America made it incredibly difficult for me to set up automatic bill payment from my checking account. On February 22, I was transferred seven times (3 hours); I spoke to confused representatives across the United States. Below is a list of what I experienced:

I was visiting NYC and used an BOA ATM at one of their branches, and the ATM machine "captured" my debit card. Called and they were sending out a new one, but of course that didn't help my situation since I was almost out of cash and several states away from home, and the next day was a holiday. Had to cut the trip short a day because of this. Card was sent on Wednesday instead of Tuesday and as of Friday it wasn't here yet, because they sent it in the regular mail instead of FedEx. I even had to ask to have them waive the fees for them mailing me the card.

One of my client paid me $300 via BOA Zelle Pay for my professional service. Since Zelle payment cannot be cancelled, I thought the money was safe in my account, and I provided service to that client. Two weeks later, the client called BOA and falsely claimed that the payment was a fraud. Without talking to me or doing any investigation, BOA simply took away $300 from my account and gave back to that person.

Maybe I was unlucky choosing a branch. This was at 59 Pope Ave, Hilton Head, SC, a vacation destination with many travellers. When I visited the branch, there were only three customers standing in line -- and there was no one to serve them! After a few minutes a single teller showed up. Then the tellers changed and there were further delays. The staff are pretty sour and unhelpful. The reason I visited the branch was because I used their drive-in ATM and it ate my debit card. When you're traveling, this isn't a good thing to happen, because you can't get a replacement from your own bank. Bank of America couldn't (wouldn't?) do anything about it, and they couldn't help me complete the transaction that I had started. They also didn't try to fix the machine or warn other customers away from it. I went up the street to TD Bank on New Orleans and they went out of the way to be helpful.

Please heed messages from the other Bank Of America customers, I wish I had I have been with BOA since 2007. Their customer service is awful! I called 3 different times yesterday and received 3 different reasons why they put a 10 day hold on a check I deposited from USAA bank (a military personal bank and insurance company) for a auto claim. I was originally told, even on the deposit receipt, that the funds would be available the next business day. Therefore, I set up the vendor who repairs my vehicle to be paid in accordance.

I have convenience, I’ve been a business customer since the 1990s. They recently sent me a several page document to verify my business information that they already have. One of the questions was asking for my Social Security number which I provided only the last four digits due to mail fraud, and mailed the forms in. They put a lock on my business accounts, and put a hold on my personal and business accounts for bill pay! I went into the branch and they said I have to call to get my accounts unlocked.

For many years I used direct payment method to pay my Bank of America Visa card bills in full. This way my payments are always on time and in full. In November 2019 I called Bank of America customer service and asked the representative to change my direct payment from one bank account to another. The female representative said it was done and gave me a confirmation number. On January 30, 2020 I received a notice from my credit reporting agency, TransUnion. I checked and found that Bank of America had reported that I was delinquent on two bills. Consequently my near perfect credit score plummeted. I was surprised and puzzled. How could that be?

My wife and I have been with BoA for over 10 years. Our checking, savings, and credit cards are all through them. They've been pretty reasonable so far. Their treatment of us over the past couple weeks has lost our business forever. I guess there are some federal regulations that require banks to verify their customers' personal information is correct. That's fine. To contact us about this, they sent emails and (apparently) physical letters. Personally, if I get an email or a letter saying our account is in danger etc etc, my scam alert goes up and I ignore it. "If it were that important, they would call."

This bank is horrible. I have never done business with them and I never will. They allowed someone using my name to open six (6) accounts in my name. They sent statements which alerted me to the problem. I called to tell them that I had not opened the accounts and the activity was fraudulent. The computer that answers the phone wouldn't connect me to ANY department until I gave them my account number or social security number. Since I had not opened the accounts, I didn't have an account number and since their bank had already allowed fraud to be committed in my name, I did not want to give them my social. I had to take a back door to get to an agent.

I'm a customer since 2003 and recently when I called to Bank of America they gave me incorrect information that cost me money, When I spoke with the supervisor, only said, "Sorry for this wrong information." I will not recommended anymore this Bank. In the last year you have to wait too much time to speak with any associate and they do not provide solution.

I'm well aware most banks make revenue through their fees. B of A is very good at making getting fees from even the financially responsible customers. Basically any time I have a low account balance I will try to deposit checks to avoid over drafting. Conveniently enough most times I do this my check is "held" for over a week so not only do I get over drafted but I dont have that money in my other bank account.

I received a letter from BOA in November to thank me for opening an account with them which I never did. I immediately called in to close this account and it took about 2 hours just to get through to someone. If I'm calling in to report fraud, why would you ask me what my account number is and then asked me what kind of account it is? How would I know?

They literally Stole $305 from my account, blamed it on the payer, even though they collected the funds from the Oregon Dept of Revenue, never credited my account, and had the gall to tell Me to have the state of Oregon file a claim against Them in order to get My money back, which the Oregon Treasury confirmed B of A TOOK from their coffers... NO Integrity, Dishonest, Uncaring. I would NEVER recommend doing any business with this corrupt, unapologetic company.

Good afternoon, On October 7th 2019 I returned a vehicle to Aruba Thrifty car rental. Upon inspection I was charged an additional 100 dollars for what they say was a small again SMALL DING in the front fender. I send BofA proof of pictures and all the documents I had. They credited me the money and then this morning they put the 100 dollars back on my Credit Card. I hope you need the 100 because you just lost me, my family, my friends, and any enemies may have. I will make it my mission to make sure nobody uses Bank of America ever again.

Been a Bank of America customer for over 30 years. Was charged a $25 maintenance fee for a checking account that they no longer offer. They did reverse the charge and said I would never receive another charge. After receiving another charge I called 2 have it removed and they refuse to remove it. I can't believe they'll risk for 30-year customer for $25 charge.

My experience with Bank of America has been horrible. I wouldn’t recommend their establishment to anyone. They charge you multiple fees, their customer service sucks, and they hold your money and charge you overdraft fees for your transactions. I would not recommend opening a business or personal account with them.

I've been dealing with Bank of America branch at 1450 Walton Way Augusta GA 30901. Over the past 8 years since I've moved here and over the past 3-5 years they have done things there way. So as far as I'm concerned it's not banking my way, it's more you have to do the banking their way. SO BE VERY CAREFUL DEALING WITH THIS BRANCH. I'll explain as well as I will be taking my problem to the Corporate office as well as the Better Business Bureau and advise everyone else to do the same.

BOA customer for over 20 years!! 3 checking accts, mortgage and home eq accts. Responding to all the other unsatisfied customers and providing additional information for those considering BOA. The only positive thing I can say about BOA is that their website is easy to work with. That's it. 20 years as a customer and that's it in a nutshell.

I stopped in at Bank of America to cash a check, that my tenet gave me from bank of America in Lindstrom MN. They wanted to charge me $5.00 for cashing their customers' check. I put the fee on my Discover Card. When the bill came from Discover I disputed it and got my $5.00 back! CROOKED bank....

I've been with Bank of America off and on since 2004. I started a new checking account and decided to take my paycheck into the branch to deposit it. The teller tells me they would hold the check until January 23rd. Cool! That was no issue. However, I called the automated line and was told my check is holding and will be released on January 30th. This is a big problem!! I have small kids and have no idea what I am supposed to do for money until then. I called their customer service department and was basically told "I understand how you feel". How could you possibly understand how I feel when I can't even feed my kids. What makes matters worse, is no one could tell me why my check has been put on extended hold. I asked for the name of the dept. I could speak with and was told they do not speak with customers. Stay away!!!

This is the second times. So, I have to write so that you may aware. I am a more than 20 years customer of BOA and using their full services including 4 accounts (2 saving and 2 checking account); I have two cards from BOA: BOA World Master Card and my BOA debit VISA card. Somehow, after I renewed my cards (credit and debit) in 2019. BOA set up something wrongly into my current cards/accounts so that I can never purchase any international items, they keep require additional verification steps so that it failed ALL purchases including buying directly international flight tickets from Air Thai, Qatar Airways.... websites (NOT thru any ticket agency / tourist services). So, I am temporary full-time student in India, my US phone will not be available for using in India (the sim chip is incompatible). So I have to use my alternate cell phone number in India.

I opened an account with BofA about a month ago. Today they closed my account, without reason. I had no overdraft fees, I had over $1300 in the account, I had direct deposit set up. And I went to log on and my account was locked. I called their customer service phone number and the guy told me that they decided to close my account. When I asked why he gave me some corporate spiel how they can close an account whenever and they don’t need a reason. So I asked to speak to a supervisor, considering I had just deposited quite a bit of money in the account, and I had bills I needed to pay, plus I’m moving across the country in a few days and I need my money.

I've been with BoA for more than five years and during that time have heard numerous personal and business acquaintances complaining about what a terrible bank BoA is. My experiences with Bank of America have been limited, but none of them have been positive. Today I went in to make a withdrawal and get some information about my account. From their manager to the 'Personal Banker' to the Teller, customer interaction was terrible. My guess is that being the crap company that they are, they are not able to get, or to keep, quality people.

I wish there is an option of negative rating. I would have given them a lowest ever rating possible. They are the horrible bank to deal with. With decades old process and online system, I am not sure how they are surviving in today's world. Now I will explain the specific issue I faced. I had a checking account with them with a direct deposit setup. Along with this I have a credit card too. I used to pay my credit card bill online using my checking account. Few weeks back I closed my checking account for hell lot of issues like: 1. You cannot move funds quickly, 2. Their savings account APY is the lowest in the market. 3. Lots of restrictions moving money to and from. etc.

I had a BoA Master Card Credit card for almost 20 years with with over a $10K credit limit for most of that time. I have excellent credit and had no issues for most of the period I had the card. I'm a person that pays off my credit cards at the end of every month. I hired a new bill paying service to pay my bills and there was an issue with my MC credit card getting paid for a couple months. I found out in month 2 at the 60 day period that the card hadn't been paid. I got the issue resolved with my bill paying service and called BoA and told them payment was sent electronically and was on the way. The next day I received an email telling me they had lowered my credit limit from $10K to $500. No notification, no warning, just whipping out my credit limit over a total amount due of $200.

I’ve been banking with BOA since 2013. I only opened an account with them because I lived abroad in Germany and Deutsche Bank allows me to use my BOA card without any fees. The past two years have been horrendous with them. I opened a business account and the banking specialist (not a teller) asked me what the difference between an LLC and a DBA is, she fills out my EIN number incorrectly and then asked me what an EIN number is. They also told me erroneous information that costed me money (saying my business partner doesn’t have to be physically with me to be added to the account.) They love charging fees. I had nearly $200 in fees for having insufficient funds despite having deposited back nearly $400.

I have been a client of BofA for 12 years. My credit card bill was due on Jan 2nd for $184. It was New Year's, I was travelling with the family, and had $94 in my Checkings Account. I have AutoPay on, precisely so I don't miss payments. On the 2nd, there weren't sufficient funds on the account. BofA charged $25 on my Credit Card as a "returned payment fee", then $35 on my Checkings account for "overdraft" and then $12 on my Checkings account as "maintenance fee" because my balance of $94 is not "high enough".... So in total they charged me $72 for not having $184 in the account.

I closed my Bank of America credit card yesterday. Please keep in mind I have been a customer for years. Always paid my balance off and no late payments. On 01/02/2020 I have a fee charge for almost $30 for a credit card transaction. I paid my mom car payment on the company website. The company website use Western Union. The CSR tells me it was a cash withdraw payment. How is that a cash withdraw payment? The CSR would not waive the $29.41 fee so I closed my account off. My credit card account balance was $2,079.41. It was the principle of the situation. Obviously, I had the money but the fee was ridiculous due to it was a credit card payment not cash advance. I will continue doing business with Discover. Excellent customer service and will love to have your business. P.S. I have proof of the credit card payment not cash advance payment per BBA CSR.

I left Bank of America after about 15 years of banking with them. Hands down the credit cards and perks I get at the other bank I switched to are better. I have kept my cc with BOA because I have had it the longest and it is factored into the maturity of my credit score. Having said that, I have two Chase cards where the perks are significant. BOA offers 5-10 percent off on a few items and stores and this does not impress me. I just got another 90 dollar Amazon Prime card to spend at Amazon from Chase for paying off my card. I charge items monthly and pay them off monthly to build my credit and get these rewards. Additionally, BOA of America would not reimburse fraud on my debit card. This is why I switched from BOA to another bank. It just made better financial sense. I also got a stipend for opening new accounts.

I am utterly disappointed with BOA, What's sooo American about holding and freezing my funds. Not only did they put a hold of over 10 days on a cashier's check, but they also decided to freeze my account. I'm definitely switching banks ASAP.

Bank of America are crooks. I had a claim with the bank for $490. They denied my claim only to confirm 5 months later that my claim was valid and they would be issuing a check. Well it’s been 6 weeks and of course no check. Don’t Bank with these people. The fees are too high and they do not help their community. Bank with a credit union. Much much better results and they are loyal.

I had been a customer with Bank of America for 30 years and I finally have had enough of them arbitrarily changing the rules on my accounts in order to CHEAT me!!!! I called 3 times with my latest issue while enduring very long hold times and they refuse to stop charging me a monthly fee that they made up with no basis for charging that fee! The last person I spoke with, Tiffinay in South Carolina, didn't know much about Bank of America and definitely does not have proper training to talk to customers. I also asked her to explain the basis of this charge and she could not explain why, but she was adamant that they are valid fees. My advice is Don't get an account at Bank of America to begin with and if you have an account at BofA find another bank that is trustworthy!!!!

** of America did a inhuman thing to me. Thank goodness I found out sooner. On 12/ 23/19 I made a purchase. The cashier told me the register stated for me to “contact bank“. I was taken aback. Surely it’s a mistake. I have funds in my account. I called BOA. I was told my debit card is closed. I had to call Monday ( next day ) to find out why. I was doing Christmas shopping! The next day I called ** of America. Yes, they confirmed my account was indeed close. The told me “It was a business decision“. WTH. I’ve been a client for 14 years. They just cut me off. I was a Preferred member.

After being an “Advantage” customer for nearly 20 years, I will be closing my account with them. It appears, after reading some recent reviews, BOA needs your money this holiday season! I am finding that what happened to my son and I is happening to others. My son is disabled, and I am his legal guardian. He tries to be a contributing member of society and holds down a menial little part time job. He shares a bank account with me. He has worked for the same company for 5 years. ADP cuts his paychecks, and Wells Fargo is the originator.

Imagine having a business bank account open for 5 months, and after the first 30 days, all of your deposits are available the next day, as promised. The bank account has never had any NSFs, nor any returned deposits. One day you deposit the same $9k check to your account, which has been deposited multiple times before. The check is from the same customer, drawn on the same bank, and the same amount, as all of the times before. The online banking system and mobile app, show the deposit, and clearly states "Credit pending (available to cover items posting on the same day as the deposit", available next business day for withdrawal and debit card purchases").

I can't believe BOA decided to be closed on Christmas eve!! I can't get my deposit until Thursday!! Other banks are open and will be closing early, which is fair, but for BOA to be closed on Christmas eve is terrible! If you were open for a few hours, then those of us waiting for deposits would've received them! A few hours isn't asking much, and your employees probably had to use their time to get paid for today, if they had any, other than that they don't get paid smh, shame on you BOA! And for that, you could've opened, even though I'm sure the employees are enjoying this day off but still, we needed our money!! There was work to do, you guys dropped the ball!!

I made a regular monthly payment, more than the minimal, to BofA before the due date, which they did receive. I then followed with an another payment, again well more than the minimal, 3 days after that month's due date thinking this would go towards the next months billing cycle, basically paying the next month early. Then I receive the following month's statement with a $28 late fee which they refuse to refund. As it turns out I'm told both payments were put on the "first month", even though the second payment was 3 days after the first month due date. I'm told if the second payment would have been 1 day later than it would have been applied to the next month's statement. I'm ok with that explanation, but under these circumstances I would expect the late fee to be reversed, not with BofA. It's very clear to me now why they have such a poor rating.

Both of my credit cards (BOA and Citi) were breached by the same company. Citicard took care of it immediately. BOA initially sent me a letter saying they had taken care of it, then they reversed their decision. I spent 4 months trying to straighten this mess out, they refused to help me and make things right. Do not use this company. They have TERRIBLE customer service, their automated call center is worse than obnoxious and they will not stand behind you as a customer.

Went into bank branch to apply for auto loan. Bank placed wrong personal and password information into loan application, so I could not check on process for several days. Some was also wrong with the loan officer's sending emails, as I never received any emailed paperwork, even when (after several attempts at calling and being on hold) I was on the phone with the loan officer and he attempted to send emails. Car seller tried to send, via email, the registration and title to loan officer email. Loan officer said the images did not go through. This part went on for a couple days. The seller's third attempt at sending the title and registration images went through.

I spent nearly more than month trying to get an auto loan, during that month nearly called the bank every day and every day I Discover that I'm dealing with people don't know what they are doing or even care for the customer, Really this is the worst customer service experience I've ever had, They promised me many times to finish my loan, they apologized many times, they left me many times without any updates till the documents they asked for it expired.... Soon I'll close my account and credit cards from this bank.

I usually don't write reviews but in this case felt obligated to do so. If I could give this bank a zero rating I would. If you're considering starting a business or opening a personal account please stay far away from Bank of America. If your acct ever gets low $30-50 what they do is show you have a certain amount there, you might use your card for something small let's say $5-10 and once a large sum is deposited they hit you with multiple $35 fees.

My husband's gets paid biweekly, and his paycheck was supposed to be direct deposited on 12/6/19. It is now 10 days later and all that has posted to the account is $0.01, out of $782!! They have given us every excuse in the book, and made up a few new ones like 'the account has to stabilize.' It's become obvious that they have no intention of ever giving us our money and bills and rent are severely past due. We are talking to a lawyer tomorrow.

STAY AWAY FROM BANK OF AMERICA! Charging you for overdraft fee for 5 times in a single night for $35 each. You don't receive any warning when you are charged overdraft for the first time because they make it when you sleep at night. What a ** bank! Other banks gives you couple days to make deposit if your balance goes negative, they do not charge you overdraft fee! But boa does very badly. Always transactions are reflecting days later, orders are changing so you can never track properly! Another thing; you pay your credit card, it is withdrawn from your checking account sooner but you can NOT see available in your credit card accounts for DAYS! This bank sucks, not friendly, trying to put you worse position, without warnings and helps! I have lot more to say!

Their customer service is absolute trash. There is never any actual help. I had a claim opened with them and they never contacted me once as it was explained to me to gather the facts, proof and etc to support me in this. Not only did they deny me my claim (while I have all of the proof) they also have all of the information on the thief I got scammed by. His name, bank info, location. It’s great knowing that they’re there to protect the bad guys. I will be looking for other bank options from here on out. Waste of 10 years.

My wife and I had been injured and could not work. Our mortgage was 127k when BofA began helping, when they sold it our mortgage had grown to nearly 200k. We needed a loan mod. They sent the mod. papers. We followed the instructions and returned the papers only to be told that we did not send what they needed or things were missing so many times I lost count yet would not tell us what was needed or missing. We sent all that was asked for time and time again. Our mortgage is go up the whole time. The company who bought the mortgage modified the loan the first time. No problem. By that time b of a stolen all they could from us and moved to the next victim. They need to be in jail.

Age can be a cruel partner, especially when dealing with Bank Of America. Is there a Support of Elder Abuse clause written in the handbook for aspiring employees? I have had to endure the endless avenues of deception that seem to be common practice in deflecting responsibility in the banks wrongdoing. I am not even sure where to start, the list is as long Tolstoy’s War and peace has pages, or the last two years of my life (this started in April 2017). So I think a few characteristic excerpts will give you a fine idea…

Applied for auto loan 2 months ago, nobody called me and every time I call they apology and said, "Will update you sir," and again no call back and every time please upload documents and different issues, Really worst customer service ever I had.

Brandon ** Wed, Jun 27, 2018, 10:13 PM to takeittoakin. Hello, Have you ever lost your credit card and feared for your financial future? This is not your typical story about credit card fraud. Let’s start the story at the Houston Police Head Quarters in downtown Houston. This experience started with the routine metal detector and waiting time that you might experience in any government building. Initially, I went to file a police report for a current fraud case with Bank of America, but after the procedural forms and Police Report I wanted more.

This bank was unable to help when we really needed their support. My husband & me paid $560.99 using BOC credit card to one of the most fraudulent online ticketing agency for a rental car hoping to use during our last vacation abroad, but we could not get the service at all. The ticketing company denied to back our money even though we did not use the service. Then we asked help from the bank. For the first time, they easily resolve in favor to this fraudulent online company. We again requested & gave the all evidences & communication records that we had about this transaction to reopen.

Getting run around In circles by customer service is a normal thing. They will all tell you different policies and none of them are consistent with each other. They will randomly hold funds and make you wait days to receive them. I waited days for funds to cover the fraud on my account. (3rd time) And new fees after 10 years, and hours on hold with customer service, I’m done.

On 11/29/19 I noticed a charge on my account which I didn't authorize. Immediately called the Fraud Department cancelled the debit card and did reissue new card. But when asking about the refund of monies plus the overdraft charge I ended up getting several answers and no 2 answers are the same. SO unprofessional. Was told charge will fall off then no it was posted now who knows. As of 12/3 still don't have the monies back in my account. I have never had such horrible customer service and return of funds. As I am typing this I am on hold which I have been for 20 minutes VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND CUSTOMER SERVICE!!

Hi! I had the worst experience with BOA today. In fact it reduced me to tears of frustration. I deposited a money order of $650 on 11/28/19 at their ATM location. They put a hold on the funds until 12/10/2019. That is 12 days!!! I was down to $7 in my account. I was worried I would go into negative balance and then get charged overdraft fees. So, I called their customer service number, explaining my situation. I was on the phone for 2 and a 1/2 hours, pleading with them. Nobody would help me. I couldnt believe it. It wasnt as if I was asking for a loan. I am asking for money I deposited. A MONEY ORDER is equal to CASH, you dumbos. A manager called "Young" was very condescending. She said they would Give me $200 which had to be withdrawn before 12 midnight!!!! ID ** is the manager's I.D., or so she said. I've never heard of such nonsense. Needless to say, I will never bank with them again.

/cannot resolve an issue online with BOA? Try to call their customer service! Plan on having no one coming to your aid. Listen to repetitious auto messages etc etc., Same thing time and time again. Nobody want to talk to you. Want to send an email Regarding your account? Forget it, no chat line either. Only way to resolve issues is to cxl the c/c's! Put the phone down 90 minutes now, still nobody home! They have a feedback page with client relations woman in charge, what a joke!

This bank's interest rate is well above the national average. I experienced an uninitiated increase in my credit line and at a time when I transferred some of my balance to save interest, my credit line was reduced drastically, adversely affecting my credit standing. I also did not receive a complete credit agreement and was unaware of many of their policies.

This is the worst bank and worst customer service available. I filed a fraud charge on my account and they acted like they were trying to help. Without notification they denied the claim and assessed $315 in charges for themselves on my account. Was told when I called that she could not explain the additional charges and to look in my message center. Still no explanation for the additional charges. Changing back to Chase Bank. Looking at the fees since 2014 I am astonished and should have paid more attention sooner. This should be illegal.

Services were absolutely terrible. I was sent in circles for 3 hours by your customer support having to recall back because I was transferred to offices that were closed. Then when I finally was able to reach the right person THREE DAYS LATER she said she would take care of my problem and waive my returned check fee (Since I had no idea this had even happened and it was a mix up at my bank) and unlock my bill pay.

On 10/14, I mailed a Bank of America (BOA) check in the amount of $1200 to the address below: Internal Revenue Service, Kansas City, MO 64999-0202. After receiving a letter from the IRS on 11/2 that the check was not received, I logged into my BOA account to check the status of check #**. In reviewing the check, I noticed that it was cashed by a Merchant LL2 at a UMB bank. I immediately called Bank of America fraud and initiated a claim.

BOA at 25260 N Lake Pleasant Pkwy, Peoria, AZ 85383. This is absolutely the worst bank ever. The manager ** is a complete tool. Unhelpful, more interested in eating or talking on the phone to do her job. I mean what does she do besides stand there and look stupid. Only one young lady helping people. The other banker just sits in his office on his phone. I can't believe Bank of America would be ran in such a horrible way. Waited 20 minutes to get help. I would not recommend this bank to anyone. Definitely looking into moving my accounts.

It was easy to tolerate the changes in this business account. Hundreds of thousands of dollars deposited over the years in my business account. Ten or more years they took away drive through, then business teller. But this month, 1 business day hold? Not going to happen. My wife and I were tired of standing in line for up to 1/2 hour when only 1 teller was in our branch to take deposits. Bank of America is the worst bank I have ever banked with. I got a letter from the BOA President once. And credit for a stupid account mistake YOU made. I'm gone. But my social media truth will last for years. Don't open a business account with this bank. They don't understand business at all.

They probably have the worst customer service here. The managers are incompetent and rude, and the employees they hire are pretty much the same. The quality of customers they cater to tend to be ** so the staff mirrors that. Never going back here again. Plus it's outdated and the service is really slow and awful.

I had experienced a double draft in my account to which overdrew my account. This was not my fault. I had the money in the account and for some reason, probably to get more money out of me by overdrafting my account, they declined the first transaction and it didn't show in my bank account for about 30 minutes. I checked to make sure it didn't go through so I could try to do the transaction again. Oh boy, did it go through, twice and I called Bank of America right away. One of the representatives that I spoke with said they weren't able to do anything until Monday. Okay, fine I can survive a weekend. This started on 11/15. I wait until Monday 11/18, still nothing. Okay, maybe it's just delayed from the weekend. Called on Tuesday 11/19, said it would be in my account Wednesday. Still nothing.

I couldn't cash an $8.00 check because it was made out to my nickname and my license has my birth name. OMG, I have a bit more than $8.00 in my account, not to mention that we have been long time customers. Can't stand the inflexibility of this bank. It has happened before. I can see why BOA has only 1 star, and that's probably too much.

Have been with BOA for the last 14 years paid off my of 5k balance in full. No late payment history and they refuse to remove accrued interest charges of $28 for once. Never ever asked then any adjustments before. Will not use them again!

** service and process. I haven't seen this kind of worse things happening on my account. Fraud transactions happen frequently and slow transaction influences my purchase multiple times. It Sucks. They said they are 24 hours service but I actually waited for 30 mins and no one response. What a liar!

When I opened my BOA credit card, the system allowed me to select an auto-pay date, so I set it for the 15th of each month. Typical date for an autopay. My designated payment amount was deducted consistently, every month for 6 months. I didn't think I had anything to worry about, so I left the account alone. When I decided to look at my transactions one day, I noticed that I had been charged a $39 late fee ON THE EXACT SAME DAY AS MY SCHEDULED AUTOPAY. What?

Scammers in the first degree. Got a new car loan of 4.84 when it should have been 2.99 because of an 840 credit rating and 23 years of being a customer. Not only did I not get a good rate, they gave me the very worse rate and then admitted I should have had 2.99 but that they could not correct it even though I had not even made a payment yet. I am pulling out ALL my business and closing all credit and cards with them. They are criminal!

Called BOA customer service was on a hold for an hour and a half to be treated like I was nobody. Then I make an appointment for the local branch and was called by the person I was to have an appointment with and was told that there was somebody that had an appointment prior to me that would take longer than necessary and could the issue be handled over the phone. I immediately called back and spoke with said person and asked if she could please hold for a moment as I had a customer in front of me (walked in after I was on the phone) and she said "just come in for your appointment, I have somebody waiting.

Been on hold for over 90 minutes trying to get an answer as to why BOA continued to take auto payments for an account that was paid in full and had a zero balance. In addition they billed interest for a balance transfer to the wrong account, and seem to have bungled up my auto pay and are charging me returned check fees for auto payments that are set up (properly) to make payments from an account that is fully funded to make said payments. If there was a zero stars that is what I'd give them.

Very careless telephone customer service. They are never there. Tried to get my lost credit card replaced. Swung me from option to option during the call, only to tell me they cant do anything about card replacement on a call. They also claim their Netbanking got many options including card replacement. But in reality, Nothing is functional on their netbanking as well. Shame on them, the bank that caused me the most inconvenience to date.

I was lied to when I asked about when funds would be available if I deposited yesterday. I was told the funds would be available "tomorrow if deposited today". That was yesterday, 11/13. Today I am told the funds will not be released until 11/22. I could have cashed the check 1 block away and deposited cash if informed of the slightest chance of a hold. Now I am facing cancellation of my auto insurance, loss of utilities, nothing for any expenditures of any kind. Interest on title loan ($250 approx. 11/28). I could have gone 1 block to Wells Fargo cashed the check and deposited it into the bank if I wasn't lied to. The title loan was to cover expenses while refinance/debt consolidation is finished. I was told by the Bank Manager that all the teller is allowed to tell me is what is on her screen...I would have had more information from the ATM.

I opened a checking account and deposited funds into it. A few days later I'm told my account was going to be closed and a check for the funds would be mailed to me. It's been two weeks since the checks was supposed to be mailed and I still have not received it. I called Bank of America and they tell me it was never mailed but transfered to another department for processing and they have no idea when I will get it. This bank is terrible, its associates have no idea what they're talking about, they lie to, give you the runaround. This is the worst experience I've ever had with a bank! I know bank of America isn't hurting for money to the point where they have to steal mine.

Bank of America used to be great 'til they started hitting people with maintenance fees of 12 which to me is ridiculous and it's not right at all. How do they expect some to have a certain amount of money in there if they keep taking out 12 in maintenance fees. This is why they stink and I surely will be taking my business elsewhere.

Updated on 12/05/2019: So I opened an account back in September. My husband and I were mailed debit cards he got his pin number I didn't. So I had to call customer service and request one because you apparently don't get to pick your own pin number... They said it would take 7-10 business days to get a pin number so with that being said my account was absolutely useless beings I couldn't even activate my card without a pin number so the account sat idle for a while. I finally get the pin number in the mail and I set up my mobile banking app and set up my direct deposit and I also got an insurance check in the mail for 1700 bucks. So instead of getting the check cashed at a bank I deposited it through the mobile app. Within 5 minutes of me depositing that check though the app my account was frozen and closed due to a security issue.

This bank places completely unnecessary holds on financial transfers just so they can make money off the float. This is not only consumer unfriendly but also a total scam. I needed some funds transferred after many similar transactions over a 25 year period, and they placed a ridiculous 9 day hold on those funds so they could profit from what they would earn by holding the amount. Bank of America should be ashamed of its terrible practices under the fake umbrella of risk management.

Bank of America and these RIDICULOUS policies are the problem. I deposited a money order on 11/05/2019 which was dated 10/31/2019 and it has already matured and it's verifiable. Why are the funds being held until 11/15/2019? Now, my account is in the negative because Bank of America has charged me monthly maintenance fees but are holding my money. As soon as this situation is cleared up I am DONE with Bank of America!!! Account Closed as of November 15th!!! Very Disgruntled

I would give a zero but cant or any negative numbers. I made 3 deposits for a total of 1500 dollars. Checked my account, the bank took the 1500 and said I can't deposit my wifes or 2 yo sons ssdi check in my account. Problem is I've been depositing these checks for the last 4 years the same either ATM or Mobile banking. Never ever ever an issue until today Nov 5 2019. They wont give me my money back nor will they give me the original check. They tell me to have a new check issued. Problem is You cant re issue a Government check that has been cashed. They are thieves and have stole money from me and now I am overdrawn by 600.00. Dont ever bank there.

Recently I had to wait one year to get a refund on a check fraud for a stolen check on my account and I had to micromanage the process continually because they kept losing my information. Now I did not get a refund to my checking account for a store return and I cannot talk to a live person to figure out what went wrong. Bells and whistles are fun for bank services but God help you if you have a problem and need to talk to a live person without a one hour long wait. 2 strikes and you are out. Goodbye Bank of America.

By phone they are great but in the bank specially in Kearny NJ they are absolutely disrespectful I can’t go there. I was with my children so my option was to be quiet and never come back. My husband and I when we need to do something with the bank we use a customer service by phone, only use the Atm there, and never talk to them again in my life.

I am so disappointed by your customer service. I called to get a statement, they sent over the wrong one. I had to called and be one the phone for 1 hour to clear up the wrong statement they sent. The call got disconnected and the representative didn't even have the decency to call me back to finish clearing things up! Called the next day, they gave me the option to mail or fax the statements again. I asked for it to be FEDEX, the customer representative had the audacity to say they can not because it would cost Bank of America money! Bank of America sent the wrong thing. Instead of apologizing for the mistake and making things right with the customer, they care more about making money. Very very disappointment. I will be looking into switching banks.

If I could give this bank a zero rating star, I would. I pay the yearly fees for the Bank of America Alaska Airline credit card and they had a promotion to transfer balance for zero interest for 1 year and I took advantage of the promotion. However, I started getting charges for the interest anyway even though I have been paying above my monthly payment. The reason was because I have been making new purchases on my card and even though I made more on my monthly payment, the bank is still going to charge me interest anyway. WTF!! If you like to pay interest then go with Bank of America otherwise there's plenty of other banks that you could get your credit card from and pay no interest with their promotion. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE and WILL CHARGE YOU AN ARM AND LEG for their interest.

Prepare to waste your time with this bank. First of all, it took forever to set up automatic payments for my Bank of America credit card. I had to set up an appointment with an advisor at the bank, go there and fill out a form to set them up. The advisor then sent the form to set up the automatic payments and it took a whole month to set them up.

I retired in San Miguel Mexico so Bank of America closed my debit card. I paid $15 for a new card but never received it or heard from them again! So now I'm stuck in Mexico with no way to access my money! They are incompetent and don't care about people!

Over a weekend, I opened a new account online with BOA with a $300 promo special. The following Monday I go into the bank and am told that we need to open a new account and transfer the deposit and promo over. I was at the bank for 4 hours. 3 months later, I go into the branch to inquire about the $300 promo and am then told that they cannot pay and have to put in an escalation. So, I spend 3 hours in the bank as we put in an escalation.

Deposited a check for $15,000 (my sister's check) on the 15th of mo. in ATM. Found out they put a hold until 24th of month. I called to complain. I have put checks from that account in my account before. BofA suggested that she stop payment and I get cash from her bank and deposit. When she called her bank the funds had been withdrawn on the 15th, same day that I deposited. I called back to let them know that and still they said the hold would stay. Clearly a 43-year customer means absolutely nothing to B of A. They could have cared less. Time to finally cut the ties.

They force you to pay fees of $12/mo if you don't do direct deposit or have $1500 in checking. I was forced to get a BOFA account to pay off a credit card that kept rejecting my credit union. Also, they keep rejecting me for credit cards despite an excellent credit rating. One time I told this dumb woman they had on the phone I had $60,000 in investments and no income at the time and she didn't get it. Avoid them. Go with Chase or Citibank.

Bank of America is holding a check I deposited at a Bank of America ATM for seven business days despite the fact that the payor is a known and credit worthy payor and I am a multi decade customer in good standing. I spent 25 minutes on the phone with a supervisor pleading my case because I have checks drawn against this deposit and still the bank is withholding the entire amount of the check. Apparently the law requires at least $2,000 be credited if the payor bank is a local bank which it is. Basically B of A is using scare tactic of money laundering risk as an excuse to earn extra fees by holding on to customers' funds. Another way for the bank to profit from the float on their customers' accounts and forcing customers to use overdraft or draw on HELOCs. This is so unethical. I am going to look for another bank.

Military Rd. Branch Niagara Falls NY. The bank manager is rude, disrespectful, and lacks the knowledge and people skills necessary to do her job. When you have to sit and refuse to leave in order to solve a problem, and only after the cops arrive it gets solved....HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM! 'Nuff said. Joseph

The "regulatory specialist" contacted me but I have left over six messages and no one returns my call! I am angry and frustrated that they do not follow through with their customers. There is no one place to write, as I finally decided to do, so hopefully corporate headquarters will do something!

I’ve been banking with Bank of America for over three years. 75% of my work over the past three years has been with a large manufacturing company that is less than a mile from my local Bank of America. I am a general contractor who works for this local company on a regular basis. Bank of America has put checks from them on hold two weeks in a row and has done this often, averaging once a month over a three-year period. They tell me It is because the checks are more than $5000. Most all of my checks that I deposit are more than $5000, so why should I bank here? There is no reason to put a hold on checks that they know from the history of my account (and the fact that it is a huge corporation) that it has plenty of money. Now is the time for me to change banks. With the high technology that we have in this world, they should know if a check is good or not and not put a check on hold for no good reason.

I made my first late payment with BoA, which happened to be one day late. They refuse to work with me even though I've had a long history of on-time payments. Congratulations, you've lost a customer. Enjoy my $25 late fee because that will be the last you ever see from me.

This is the most unprofessional, unreliable service I have ever seen. Don't count on BoA to uphold any agreement that they sign, they will inevitably ** you. And definitely don't count on their "customer service" being any help at all as they won't even listen to your complaint, they will simply parrot back the ** script they have in front of them while constantly interrupting you. Rude, incompetent, and a mystery how they maintain any accreditation whatsoever.

Their customer service system sucks - Their system sucks because you have to talk to a different person every time you call and reiterate your problem over and over again. They do not understand how big of an inconvenience this is for customers like myself who have to deal with the same problem for two months. They denied my claim 3 times because they cannot figure out which claim it is categorized as and how needs to be filled out. They also deny your claim even if you have provided the information they asked for. They do not get back to you in a timely manner.

I wanted to be safe. I had a small casino win (1575). The Horseshoe ask if I wanted cash or a check. I said check just in case I was robbed on the way home. I got up, went to the bank Saturday morning (inside). I spoke with the Branch Manager. "Oh sure. We will give you 500 dollars counter credit this morning." I said, "are you sure." "Yes, of course". "The rest will probably clear on Tuesday after 5 pm. Guess what!!! I checked my account Tuesday morning -491. I have never in my life had a negative balance. I am done. So done. Liars. I ask them before I deposited this check whether or not it would clear. Is it a deposit hold on the check until 10/17. Mind you I deposited this check on Saturday October 5.

Computer upgrades are supposed to be seamless to the customer. At BOA, they seem to advocate the opposite. My current problem is the inability to schedule regular transfers -- between accounts as well as to outside parties. These have been routinely rejected over the past few weeks without explanation. Also personnel at the branch banks are NOT given the authority to help with these problems. Reaching an online associate is its own frustration costing much time as well as aggravation. I am called a Premium Platinum something, something customer but I am treated in a way my own business would never treat any customer. Perhaps BOA has grown "too large to succeed" to twist a phrase. In any case, I am getting very close to taking my business elsewhere after 15 years with the bank. This is only the latest installment of an ongoing saga -- structural incompetence or lack of care?

My wife and I have been a Bank of America customers for over forty years. We have banked at the same location in my town in the San Francisco Bay area the entire time. We will close our account as soon as we make arrangements for payroll deposits and recurring automated payments. My wife and I are recently retired from over forty years as educators in our area. We do not have complicated financial dealings and have only our credit union account as our other banking institution.

We were entangled in a mess whereby Bank of America enrolled us in a program at reduced payments and reduced interest rate. We paid the proper amounts due but were subsequently told that we were not enrolled in such a program and the bank charged us late fees. The original enrollment associate was supposed to have a read a disclosure stating that we would have to wait for a letter of approval. A subsequent associate informed us that the enrollment associate "never actually did anything to move the process forward but just left the paperwork dangling, with nothing done."

Our company has been in existence for 4 years now. We recently received a payment of $12,500 from our customer using Bank of America Merchant services. This was our 2nd transaction through BOA merchant. The first transaction took place earlier that week. We have never to this day had a charged back transaction from a client to this day. Bank of America held the payment HOWEVER charged us the processing fee for the payment! It's been 12 weeks and they are still holding the funds. There has been no charge backs no this payment or any other payments.

Since our first month banking with this company, we have had nothing but issues with them. Fees we were never told about are being removed monthly from our account(s). We signed up for overdraft protection, that they offered, but they didn't tell us or let us sign up for the REAL overdraft protection. They only signed us up to have money removed from our savings account if our checking went over. Overdraft protection should come standard across the board as a courtesy, and you should have to opt into allowing overdrafts. The standard at this company is the opposite, their goal is to allow everyone to overdraft as quickly as possible, so the company can turn profits and take your money. They are a for profit organization that could care less about you, the customer, or your money. This is the reason you have to pay them if your account does not have enough money in it monthly.

I am SO OVER this bank and its deplorable "security". I use that word for lack of another printable one. My husband and I have been "preferred" customers for years and they only thing preferred about this bank is that we receive letters advising us to cancel our existing visa due to their hacking this bank has been on the receiving end for years. You would think that a bank that has been conducting business for so many years would have a decent, or at least a 20th century security system. 10 years ago I began receiving "scam" mail from BOA on their letterhead that was asking for personal info. When I reported this to BOA, they never responded via mail or a personal phone call that they had received these scams. Now, today, yet another letter from them advising us of the possibility of a "hacking." As of today I am done with BOA and all of their weak security and protection of their customers.

I called into the customer service line to ask some questions about a deposit I made. The first representative I spoke to did not speak very clearly and was mumbling. After I asked a few question, his only response was that he was not sure and then proceeded to ask if there was anything else he could help me with. I asked to speak to the supervisor, who from the moment they got on the phone, was extremely hostile. She was very rude and told me multiple times that my knowledge and understanding of the topic was incorrect and continuously asked me where was I getting the information. When I told her the information came from their website and banking terms & conditions, she told me I was lying and that I clearly could not read properly. This was the most unprofessional experience I have ever had at a bank and it is a shameful representation of this company.

We closed our business checking account at which time we were not notified that the business credit card would also be closed by BOA. Upon viewing the account online as that is the only way to see the balance, we noticed there were Un-Spent Cash rewards (never expired). Trying to redeem them online was futile, so I called only to be told that there is nothing they can do because the account was closed. I asked for a credit to be issued to the card - sorry no can do. So basically they have stolen a couple hundred from us using the card at their recommended partners/vendors. Once a card is closed by either BOA or the consumer the cash rewards should automatically be applied to the balance of the card or checked issued to consumer for the balance unused cash rewards.

After over 3 decades as a Bank of America preferred client, I've gotten so disgusted that I'm closing all of my BofA accounts. Service has been on the decline for years. New rules are added that are anti-consumer. They recently put a 10 business day hold on a $20k federal gov check -- making $0 available immediately! BofA earns interest for 10 days on a check that cleared in seconds. Shameful. Bill pay sent out checks that arrived late. No accountability and lots of finger pointing. So after all these years BYE BYE BofA!

They are worst bank! They didn't give my bonus points even after I met criteria. It was useless following up with them as they are good making EXCUSES! Go to some other bank for better Customer service!

Hello,

For several months my account was charged without me noticing. When I brought it up to them they said it was a mistake and would refund the money taken. Then they said they could only refund the past few charges by policy. They weren't supposed to be taking the money in the first place, and would only give some of it back because their "policy" apparently makes it okay to steal money if you don't notice immediately.

This is by far the worst credit card company I’ve had the bad luck of applying for. This company will stick you with fees every chance they get!!! I feel they are not a trustworthy company. I use the payment app to pay on the due date but they have this “trick” where you get tagged with a late fee if it is not sent in by 10 pm on the due date. I live in central time and made my payment at 11 pm and it was considered late; Mind you it was still on time where I am at. What kind of freakin gimmick is that? Customer service sucks the worst. I literally was waiting for someone to answer my call to ask about that late payment fee and guess what...47 minutes waiting for an agent to answer and nothing!! BOA you can kiss my butt. I paid off my balance and closed this account down. This is a crappy company every which way you look at it.

So I deposited check for $4500 come to find out someone had basically stole my money via the Internet. I open up a claim with Bank of America and they denied the claim saying that I was responsible even though they originally told me that the withdrawals were coming from New Jersey then it was North Carolina. Nevertheless they were not here on the West Coast and they refused to give me my money back. This bank is ghetto and are thieves. Something needs to be done as they should not be allowed to just steal people's money like this.

Called in about an overdraft (That I had for less than 24 hours) that I tried to take care of by Zelle money from another account to my Bank of America account. I was still charged the 35 dollar overdraft fee. I called in to see what could be done since I tried to take care of the amount right away. (Keep in mind all less than 24 hours) I over-drafted by 15 dollars and charged 35 dollars overdraft fee. I was told there wasn’t nothing they could do unless it was a charge that I didn’t authorize. It was an OnStar Subscription trial that ended.

Today, September 19, 2019 I had an appointment which I made online with BoA's office at 24211 Paseo De Valencia in Laguna Hills, Ca. I arrived on time and had my appointment form with me. I was approached by ALEX who wanted to know who my appointment was with. I didn't know. He "grilled" me on what my business was about and stood very close to me. He was not customer service. On the contrary, he was surly, defensive, and full of his self-importance. I asked to speak with the manager. No customer training here. I asked for Alex's last name so that I could contact CUSTOMER CARE. Nope - Alex didn't feel comfortable giving me his card - this is a business that solicits customers.

All I can say is that's too bad that B of A makes you feel like you're at the circus. They pass the ball from one to another and contradict themselves even though they're being recorded. If you like headaches then this is your bank??? I paid balance off and put my cards to sleep, not making any money on me no more...

I have been with Bank of America since they took over Standard Federal/Lasalle---so 25 years or so. I had a 23% interest rate credit card from 2013 until last week. Don't remember what my credit line started at, but it's now $13,500. I carry a high balance $8,300 - but I have NEVER made a late payment. Additionally I have a checking and savings account. My checking is tied to my savings account for overdraft protection. While admittedly a little sloppy over the years, I didn't think too much about overdrawing my checking account from time to time--though it was always inadvertent. I figured that's what it was for AND BofA made $12 off of everyone of those transactions----which might happen every 2-3 months or so. Nothing major---$15 here or there.

I have been with BOA sine they took over Washington Mutual Bank some 20 years now. Money was sent to my account by accident using the Zelle App. The money was to go to my credit card account with another bank. The person who sent the money thought it went to the bank I requested. I contacted the person who sent the money & was told they sent it to the account I requested the money to be sent. After not seeing the money, a call was made to my credit card. I was told by the card company to contact the person who sent the money or Zelle which the person did. The person was told it was sent to my BOA account.

Dealing with Boa FRUSTRATING! Made a deposit. A hold was place on it for 11 days, the written reason was “specific reason” the check may be returned. Receive stories, told “specific reason” was not on receipt that I received. Have been told fraudulent and stop payment checks are processed through the Federal Reserve Bank. Really where is the fraud between company to company transaction deposited. Told to call client and tell them no more services be performed until the bank's expiration date of hold has passed.

Several months back my mother and I decided it was time for a Durable Power of Attorney. My mother has Alzheimer's and she is in a confused state 98% of time. I live in a 1964 mobile home and mom has come here to live. It's not as nice as her homes have been. So I have spent a lot to make mom comfortable and feel secure, yet keep her safe from wandering. I am unemployed as mom needs someone with her 24/7. About 2 weeks ago BofA put a hold on mom's money accusing of not having moms best interest. I can account for almost all of the money, in the meantime our bills are all bouncing. We have little food, no gas in the car and the worst our power has been shut off in triple degree hot weather. And BofA has mom's best interest in mind....NOT!

Called from New York to try and resolve a simple issue related to my credit card. I was transferred 3 times (talked to 4 agents total). Each time, I had to wait about 5 minutes for the next agent to pick up, reconfirm all of my information, and re-explain the issue. The first three agents were polite but unhelpful/not qualified to help. The last agent was rude in addition to being unhelpful. I hanged up after 45 minutes on the phone, with my issue still unresolved. Will go to an actual BofA location to speak to someone face-to-face. What a lost of time... This is as bad as customer service gets.

I opened a checking and savings account online with BOA. Got immediately approved, set up my account, downloaded the app, and deposited money. I received my debit card in the mail and a day later received a letter stating they closed my accounts. I called and they had no real explanation as to why they closed my account. I guess they don't want any new customers. I certainly will never be one.

I have banked with BofA for several years. My account was recently locked by Joseph ** in the Fraud Dept. He locked my account this past Monday and I have been unable to pay my property taxes which are due on Friday. I have also been unable to get cash or go into my account in order to begin moving my "bill pays" to another bank. I have been more than courteous in trying to resolve this both in person at my branch and with Joseph via phone. I spoke with Scorpio at the 800 number provided on my account yesterday when I tried to access my information online. Joe finally returned my call as I was speaking with Scorpio. Joe instructed me that I needed to go to my branch when they open today which I will before he shuts my account down.

Ok, I am away from the country. My check gets placed on a 10 day hold. They have me a $100 emergency credit until the check clears. NO the $100 gets deducted ASAP the following day and still check still on hold. Called 3 different times explaining the situation in a foreign country, a representative states, "We did put a travel flag on your account." So, you know I am away in the country still do not release my funds and say there's no history of me depositing any check from my current employer. How you tend to help people when you hold their money for your benefit. I find this bank so displeasing. I do not understand how they manage to keep their clients.

After waiting 10 minutes to be answered, the BOA rep was as unhelpful as possible. I deposited cash in a new account in August, and it took 3 weeks to receive an ATM card to be able to access the funds. BOA blamed it on the weather. The credit card that was applied for at the same time is still nowhere to be found, and BOA rep couldn't tell me the status... It wasn't her department.

I have been a business customer for 22 years. I deposited a cashier's check for $50K for a car I sold. The person buying it and I both didn't want any problems so we went and got a cashier's check thinking it would help. BOA decided they needed to put a hold on on for 10 days. I spent 3 hours between yesterday and today trying to make some sense of why they needed to hold it. The bank employee even called the issuing bank and they said it was good and it was already cleared. My bank says they haven't heard from them and this is why they put a hold on it.

Please do not bank with BOA. They like to rip off hard working people. Their fees are way too high. My account is currently negative and one of my auto draft payments of $7 hit my account and I was charged $35 dollars overdraft fee. Which don't make any sense because that's a high price to pay for a little amount. They said "well you should have made sure that you had enough in your account to cover it." Well jeez I'm not perfect. We all make mistakes, plus I'm not rich like everyone else, and I'm not going off spending my money like there's no tomorrow. Had to make sure my bills are covered. I forgot!

I am very unhappy with BoA's approach to cash cashier's checks which are considered according to Regulation CC (Reg CC) of the Federal Reserve, cashier's checks are recognized as "guaranteed funds" and amounts under $5,000 are not subject to deposit hold, except in the case of new accounts which is not me. Well, BoA is clearly not following this regulation. Actually, according to this, BoA is holding funds without a reason. I think this is the end of my relationship with a bank institution that does not care about its clients....Moreover, this check is deposited in my account every month, they could not give me a reason for the hold....

I have been with Bank of America for 10 years. I have had bank charges in the past for overdraft fees and I understood why it happened. I was shocked by a bank charge of 35.00 for a cover of 1.26. I still don't understand it. I called the bank 800 number to ask why. This guy was pleasant. Told me that my account was low when a check came through. The amount was 1.26. The bank charged me for paying that. I was so upset. When I look into my account it does not show any negative transaction. It just show the charge of 35.00.

You will wait Looong to get a Representative and at the end, they will NOT help you. Just say, "Sorry oh sorry, but I can not help you for that." They don't know that you are a human person. If you don't have an account DO NOT OPEN ONE. If you have one I think to be on the safe side just close it.

I was unable to access my account information on the mobile app or full site online. I called several times with no help. I made one last attempt to figure out what was going on as I was shocked no one returned calls or attempted in any way to contact me with any potential issues. I finally reached someone and they simply stated the Bank can close accounts anytime they wish. I used to respect Bank of America but with behavior like this I have reason to claim their unethical business behavior must be in some way based on bias. I still have received no correspondence or anything indicating account closure. This is just plan sad business practice and from such a large institution. If anyone deals with this Bank, I wish you luck. I will be taking my business to an institution that is customer friendly and will treat me with respect and equality and without prejudice.

BAS has announced they are discontinuing ShopSafe. ShopSafe is one of the true differentiators that BAC has provided. ShopSafe is absolutely the best mechanism to avoid having your credit card number hacked/stolen and then dealing with all the ensuing hassles. I can shop online, with any vendor, and virtually zero risk of having to deal with my credit card number getting exposed. Do you hate the pesky auto-renewals when you sign up for something? ShopSafe easily deals with that by limiting how much and how long charges can be made. Sure, credit cards protect you from fraud, but you have to get a new card, deal with that all the places that you use your card, sometimes the hassle of proving you didn't make the charge, hassles with auto-renew, etc. Without ShopSafe, BAC is just another credit card with nothing special about it. Big mistake BAC - someone made a bad decision.

I just recently deposited a check from my job which is a government job. When I checked my account the next day to see if it was cleared it stated that they had a hold on it for 6 days maybe 10. I called the company and spoke to Janet to see why they would hold it for so long. The check was less than 800. They said they hold checks up to 10 days. This is money I needed for medication and to feed my kids. They would not do anything for me just told me I had to wait the 10 days.

I have been a BofA customer for 21 years and every month for at least 15 years I have made a single check deposit of over $10,000 into my account from one of my accounts at another bank. And now when I deposit it into the ATM, I get an automatic response that it will be put on hold for at least a week because "check specific information indicates item may be returned". Not once in the 15 years has it ever been returned and the banking information hasn't changed for years so why is there now a hold? When I called my other bank, the funds are already gone, but yet BofA still won't release the hold.

Bank of America offers you the CLOVER terminal to accept all credit cards, what they don't tell you is two important things: 1- The commission they charge you is not fixed, it can go up to 5.9% in certain transactions.... 2- You can't cancel the service when you want - that should be a regular option and a pure decision of the customer - they grab you until a contract you never signed, terminating before their date will cost you $500. So, if you want to pay a monthly fee of $20, a commission they modify at their own criteria and live with it forever. THIS IS YOUR BANK.

I have been a BofA Alaska Air customer for 26 years. Never missed a payment, always paid the annual fee. This year, a recurring charge switched to my account that I was unaware of. It was for $36. I missed the payment and they reduced my credit from $10,000 to $500. Absolutely unbelievable. I called many times but realized that people are not treated like people, but as a number on a page. After 26 years with 0 issues, I am parting ways with Bank of America over one missed $36 payment. Save yourself some pain. If you want to be treated like a person and not a number, go to your local credit union, or anywhere else. Just don't go to Bank of America.

Updated on 09/24/2019: This is an update of my review of Bank of America, dated 09/06/2019. During the weekend of 09/07-09/08/2019 I sent random emails to different departments at Bank of America. The following Monday, someone from Bank of America called to ask if I had food or medicine, when she realized that I am a senior citizen, with multiple disabilities, and a Vietnam era veteran, she became HIGHLY concerned, after I told her my situation with Bank of America, she said that she would get back with me. Surprisingly got back with me after several hours.

I've been with BofA since 1989. Never had any issues with anything except for this, today, SHOPSAFE says “As of September 20, 2019 you won't be able to use the ShopSafe® service, including any saved virtual credit card numbers. If you have ShopSafe card numbers saved with online merchants, please update with your current credit or debit card information.” Now, SHOPSAFE no longer works....(Many of us, Bank Of America card users are about to field a waive of Card Frauds again), without ShopSafe Pseudo-Card Number to circumvent this. Was this intentional to STOP protecting BofA customers? Please help.

I’ve been a credit card customer for about 20 years. Only 3 late payments in that time. Yesterday I paid the cards off entirely and this morning Bank of America closed the accounts. When I called customer service I was transferred to a credit analyst and was told that I no longer meet their desired customer profile and that they would not accept me as a customer anymore! On further questioning they stated that since I had paid off the account they would have no interest income from it and that made me undesirable.

Leaving after 20+ Years Over their customer service. I've banked with them for 20 years and they're going to lose a loyal customer over a $25 fee. They make more $ off of my $ than I do and "there's nothing they can do" to resolve my issue. Done.

Worst customer service experience from Albuquerque location. Since we are a business we often receive cashier's checks for high dollar amounts from customer's banks in customer and our business names. Both parties then sign the back of check and we deposit it. In this particular case the amount was credited and then deducted without any clarification. Upon contacting business customer service I was told since the check was made out to customer and our business name it can't be deposited, and that the check has been shredded. And I need to get a new check from customer.

Bank of America is a joke and long overdue for going out of business. Every single time I’ve called in the last 5 years as a business customer I’ve had to wait no less than 30 minutes. They make mistakes often, they are unfriendly, they’ve dropped my calls on several occasions, etc. This oligopoly needs to go. Yuck.

I have been a loyal credit card customer of BofA for many years, always paying my card off monthly, fully, and on time. Recently, BofA issued me a new card. Statements on this card went to my spam box. I was never able to see one, nor could I navigate the BofA website well enough to set the card up on automatic payments. Two months of my not paying a bill that amounted to $60.00, because I never saw the bill, caused BofA to drop the card I have paid, according to their records, over $50,000 on -- and to lower the amount of credit available on the new card, the one I had not paid, to $500. Adding insult to injury, BofA caused my near perfect credit rating to drop by almost 150 points.

I'm a customer of Bank of America for 20 years. I got low rate check and didn't realized that I can't deposit to my account. Instead of 0% rate I ended up %23 in addition to transaction fees. The font was so small in comparison 0% Apr till 8/20. I called customer service and got nothing. Being a loyal customer worth nothing when it comes to Bank of America. DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS BANK. There are fraud! Diana **.

In the 26+ years of doing business with Bank of America I have never bounced a check or been late on a payment and I am a Platinum level client. This should make me the ideal, responsible, trustworthy client. On August 23, 2019 I deposited a $20,000 check from Logix Bank into my business account. I had been transferring money into that same Logix account for months for business, however that was the first check I had received from the same account. I asked when the funds would be available and after checking with the manager, the teller told me the funds would be available the next day. They were not.

Incident Description. Hi, I am here to report fraud activities on my credit card last month from Jul 10th to Aug 11 of 2019. I had carried my credit card with me for the whole duration. During this time starting from July 12th to July 31st, I had noticed some transactions on my credit card. The card had been swiped in multiple places like Oakridge Mall, Taco bell, MCD, Starbucks all over Oakland, Santa Clara, San Jose. I couldn't disable the card online. So I had called Bank of America and had them disable card. They had disputed my charges as well.

I have been with Bank of America for a few years now. This bank does not care about their clients, they must have too many because their customer service is ready to close your account in a blink of an eye. They are always bouncing you around, department to department, next thing you know you're on the phone for an hour, really!!!! Come on.... that sucks. Poor service. They closed my account and deleted all my reward point that I had for Spirit Airlines, just like that... Never again, and I will make sure I will pass the word about them, to friends and social media!!!!

I called Bank of America on August 27th and ask one of the reps if they could have mercy and credit the $12 transfer to cover small debit of $2 from my business checking account. The rep emphatically stated that the charge was valid. I mentioned that I was able to cure the overdraft on my own so I would appreciate the refund. The rep emphasized the charge was valid. In order to avoid any additional fees, I asked the rep to close the business savings and the additional business checking account. I expected the rep to say “sorry to see you go” but there was no comment and the rep preceded to close the accounts. Later that evening, I noticed a debit hold on my savings account for $2,072.73. I had mentioned to the rep earlier that I was experiencing financial hardship. I discovered that Bank of America garnished my savings to satisfy a balance remaining on an auto loan as a result of a total loss.

Bank of America sucks! They doubled billed my online payment. Which caused my checking account to overdraft. I spent an hour-and-a-half on the phone trying to get this resolved. Then they told me I had to call back the next day because the charges were pending and they had to wait for them to clear. I just spent 50 minutes on the phone now that they're cleared. Now, they tell me that I have to wait three days since they were pulled from a different bank and they have to wait for them to clear with that bank. In the meantime, I'm overdrawn $4,000. And... Once they do process it three days from now, it takes another two days for the money to get back into my account. I got switched around to seven different departments. Their customer service absolutely sucks and none of them have any idea what they're doing. I have a $20,000 line of credit and I'm in the process of canceling this credit card.

Horrible exp with BOA. First bank to do hard enquiry for credit line increase.... Don't even update customer...please check your score regularly if you own BOA accounts. Will be switching to other bank soon.

When I opened BOFA account, it was promised "next business day deposited checks availability" and now manager saying ONLY direct deposits are safe from using by BOFA practice of regular hold for 10 days. They are holding 2nd my check in month and paralyzed my vitally important payments as bills and rent and even daily food. A week ago Mrs. Holly **, Chief Client Care Executive of BOFA sent me invitation "to participate in discussion how to improve the BOFA " - so I am answering now: obviously, BOFA simply needs to act according to law, and not distract the daily living needs of costumers. I promise to not deposit my checks at BOFA, I promise to close my account, but still need the have my deposited money back before to quit BOFA and to open account in any other bank.

I have been with BofA for 27 years... Their service has finally forced me to leave. I had a fraudulent charge from “Life Alert” with whom I never signed a contract and cancelled everything the same day. Life Alert confirmed with me that their $198 in fees would be fully refunded no problem at all. BofA started the dispute process. 1 month after everything was returned undamaged Life Alert confirmed all money would now be refunded. Yesterday, 8/23/19, BofA recharged me the $198!!! When I called to ask why I was told that their investigation found in favor of Life Alert! How is that possible... They told me they couldn’t help me until Monday. I told them, "That’s fine, Monday morning I will go to my bank and close all my accounts!" BofA stinks!!! Use Chase or Citibank or anyone else!

I applied for a loan through LendingTree. The next day I got a call from a scammer that had my bank account information and was asking for my online password to BOA. (Thanks LendingTree) I hung up on them and called BOA to tell them about it. In hopes to get ahead of anything fraudulent happening. Their response was to close my account and tell me I'm not allowed to bank there anymore. Ever. Thanks for the help BOA.

First of all, I never write reviews for anything. I'm only taking the time to write this because I have never been SO dissatisfied with a bank or any business for that matter. One of my jobs decided to pay me using a Bank of America debit card, instead of just letting me set up direct deposit. First of all, if you have ANY problems whatsoever, it is almost IMPOSSIBLE to get help. You have to go through a bunch of automatic responses over the phone before you even talk to a real person. Once you finally reach a real person, they hardly understand English and after talking to about five different people over a span of a few weeks, NOBODY COULD HELP ME.

In 9 days I will be closing my accounts with BOA. My car insurance was due to come out, so I went to the ATM deposited 160 in case and 275 check. NEVER HAS A CHECK HAD A HOLD ON IT. Last night they put a 10 day hold on my check, then returned my car insurance payment and charged me 35.00 and I can't even pay my car insurance because of the 10 day hold. This is the last straw. I HATE BANK OF AMERICA. WORST BANK EVER!

The worst bank. I had been using from 3 years and they keep on hold the transactions for no reason and the customer service is very rude. The response that we get when we call to customer care is so stupid. I don't recommended this bank. They kept my checks for hold for 1 week and when I asked they said this was deposit agreement and they don't say all these when we open an account.

It’s unbelievable to me that banks rob you of your money but hey what’s that in 2019? After all, with all the madness going on in the world, it makes perfect sense that banks are the very people stealing your money. So after four months of going back and forth with Bank of America, the verdict is my claim was denied after providing proof, after proof that I was in fact, scammed and what we had was a solid case of fraud. Of course, they just crossed their arms and apologized incessantly, that they “understood” my frustration. Thanks a lot Bank of America, you done it again.

I have a joint account with Merrill Lynch and Bank of America. I received a bogus fee on my account, and called to resolve it. They said a payment of over $450 was late, so I paid it directly on the phone. Just now, reviewing that transaction from a month ago, I see that my payment of over $450 had gone through 4 days before the idiot agent processed it. So I paid $450 twice, and my balance on the account is -$450 - meaning, my Bank of America credit card *owes me* $450. They didn't tell me they cheated me out of $450, they didn't refund it, and they're not paying me interest on the loan they extorted from me.

On July 19, 2019 I paid off my BOA auto loan that had an electronic lien in Florida. The teller did not apply the deposit correctly and it took 10 days for BOA to tell me. So I had to pay $25 and start the process over. On August 7, a BOA Supervisor Dallas and on August 8 Supervisor Daniel, assured me that the loan was cleared and the lien was removed. My wife works as a financial officer and on Aug 9, she removed a lien through the Florida ELT system. It takes from 24 to 72 hrs to remove a lien. Her lien was already process as of August 13, 2019. My lien is still in the system. This is unacceptable. I suspect BOA has not been completely honest. I've been with BOA for 23 yrs, never again.

I opened my BOA Travel Rewards Credit Card in November of 2017. I used my card consistently for a year and paid of the balance in full in December 2018. I had not used my card since. I was receiving promotional emails to use my card, and got a notice to call customer service to update my account information. I called as instructed, and the woman came back to the phone to tell me that as of today they were closing my account, with no explanation as to why. I was dumbfounded. I had never had a late payment, and my account was in excellent standing. Closing an account hurts the age of my credit history on my credit score, and well as lowers my available credit limit which also lowers my credit score. I am extremely dissatisfied with Bank of America and will not be returning as a customer, nor will I recommend BOA to any of my family or friends.

My husband and I have been with Bank of America for many many years. For the most part we have been satisfied. However, we took a trip to the Dominican Republic last June, 2019, had everything all worked out with the resort. When we arrived, the upgrade we had agreed to pay in WRITING was $900. The resort told us it was now $2000!!! We had emails back-and-forth with the resort clearly stating it was only a $900 Upgrade! If we did not sign for the $2000, we were literally being held hostage in a foreign country with nowhere to stay or sleep.

THEY PRE-APROVED MY LOAN OF 82,500 IN BOA US1 AND 136 STREET 331. Before I went to look for properties I sat in the bank for a pre-aproved letter. It was given to me without any problem. After I found the property they kept asking for papers, same papers I submitted since day first. Ready to close 6 days before closing they kept asking for minor things. At the end they told me that the loan could not be approved. I was able to buy the property cash but I'm advising everybody what banks are doing now. It is not the Bank of America. We went there because we have 2 cars financed by the same bank. Be careful.

I've been with BofA for 30 years now. Never had any issues with anything except long waiting lines sometimes. They often ask how they can help me and they always send a review link in my emails as to how they did and what can be improved. They don't pay much for savings accounts and their loan rates are a bit pricey, but been very happy with their customer service for all these years.

BoA representative wanted to talk to me about opening a business bank account with them. I did not see any advantages or services that were better than my current bank so I did not open an account but the representative was able to convince me to open two credit card. It has been a total nightmare. After the first month's billing cycle I tried to setup Autopay. There was no option to pay the balance in full so I called BoA for assistance. The representative informed me the reason was because their eBills need to be setup so I stayed on the phone with them for about an hour while they worked on it. I was told to try again in a few days. After a week a representative from their local branch reached out to me to follow up on my accounts. I explained that eBills was still not active and she informed me that eBills actually needed to be opened in person at the branch and that I would need to come down.

I had a Bank of America business account. I had deposited two checks that were written to my personal name. They refused to honor the checks because they were in my name and closed my account. There was a deposit for an IRS tax refund in someone else’s name. They kept 3k of guys. This included 1k worth of fees.

Today, after banking with Bank of America for over 30 years, I discovered they have a new department: The "Know Your Customer Department". Clearly a ridiculous name for what appears to be a department with absolutely ZERO CONCERN for its customers! Donisha was the Know Your Customer employee I had the misfortune of speaking with by phone at 800-496-9471. She claims her department sent me a letter in June giving me 30 days to verify my account information: my full name, address, phone number, and ssn. None of this information has changed in the last 13 years and it all was correct on my account.

I obtained a loan through Bank of America for a new truck I purchased. After purchasing the truck, I received no information about my loan from Bank of America other than an account number along with my bill three weeks after approval. On the bill there is an option to pay online. Once you create an account online, you have to wait three to five business days to receive a temporary passcode in the mail in order to finally log in to your account. First off that doesn't make any sense, why wouldn't using your account number be enough verification to login, why do you need to wait for a passcode that has to sent via U.S. mail.

August 5, 2019. Suddenly locked out of online banking. Reset password and locked out again. Even though preferred customer with dedicated phone line on hold forever. Robot does not recognize phone passcode.

Hi, I have tried to be patient with all of the many and constant changes BOA has had in a rapidly changing world. Today, 38 minute wait to speak to customer service. This is unacceptable and disgraceful. BOA, cannot remove a charge according to the merchant. The merchant acknowledges they made a mistake. Sent us an email. 38 minutes waiting. You folks do not care about customer service. I have several hundred thousand dollars with you. I am almost done with your ** customer service and it takes quite a bit to piss me off. Thank you, Neil **

I've been a customer of BOA for 15 years and I cannot even get someone to answer the phone at the bank about a simple question that I cannot find online. The location I'm referring to is 1211 Murfreesboro Rd, Franklin, TN 37064 US, I'm not sure if they are all that way.

On June 30th 2019 i received a text asking if I made a transaction from Dish network and I replied yes since indeed I paid a remaining balance of my cable bill. The next morning while I was on vacation in Mali, I checked my account and saw that 47 transactions were made into my account originated from New Delhi (India) and right away I called Bank of America and notified them of the transactions and clearly told them that I did not made those transactions nor authorized them. I was told that a claim will be initiated but until the transactions completely post into my account the won’t process which happens to process on July 5th 2019 and I contacted the bank again and told them that the transactions posted into my account and international charges were applied to my account, the customer service representative told me that it will take 10 business days for the investigation to complete.
