I went to an ATM (M&T Bank) in the Chesapeake Exxon in Annapolis, MD to withdrawal money to pay for tires that I needed to make it home from the doctors. Every time I tried to withdrawal the funds it was declined due to an “ERROR CODE = 3-DA001(10). I tried three separate times, all three were declined with receipts stating $0.00 dispensed $400.00 Requested. I contacted the number on the ATM who told me I would need to contact my bank (Bank of America) because it was a terminal error. Last night (6/21/23), I spoke to a representative from my bank who stated that because it was still processing to call back this morning. I called my bank (Bank of America) this morning stating what happened and the receipts I have showing $0.00 was dispensed and they stated that they would have to do an investigation because on their end it states the funds were dispersed even though the receipts state $0.00 was dispensed.
I even explained what the gentleman I spoke to yesterday told me and they were beyond rude and said I would have to wait 10 business days for an investigation to get my money. I am disabled and receive SSDI each month. This leaves me without the money to get my prescriptions. They didn’t even ask to see or send them the receipts I have. Both the rude representative I spoke to this morning and his “manager,” stated there is nothing they can do. I want and need my funds returned immediately. I don’t have the luxury of waiting 10-12 business days for my $417 to be held. I will be pursuing every avenue possible for something to be done regarding these crooked banks and what they put their vulnerable customers through. This is wrong and crooked in every way possible. Please heed my advice and do not bank with them. I promise that you won’t regret it.

My card was comprised for a few fraudulent transactions. I requested a new card and reported these transactions. The new card didn’t come in the mail as of yet, which I was waiting for already 2 weeks after, and they let another fraudulent merchant go into my account and dismantle it over 2,483 dollars! I reported this immediately. No one contacted me and my account was in the negative for over 1119.43$ for over 3 weeks. I don’t have over draft protection, and was waiting for a new card to arrive that didn’t arrive, when this transaction occurred. Since I don’t have overdraft protection, they should have kicked this charge back like they do every other charge when I’m at least a dollar less in my account for a charge! They decided to keep the fraudulent charge on my account for over 3 weeks. Only reason why it’s not in the negative now is because of my direct deposits that I didn’t see an inch of it for over a month.
The bank lied to me and states I have recurring charges with this fraudulent merchant. I’m waiting for a new debit card that has not arrived in the mail as of yet, but recurring charges shouldn’t be “recurring “ if my new card hasn’t arrived yet? It is not up to the bank to update any card for recurring charges without the customer knowing about it. They’re taking almost a month to investigate, going over and not following rules and regulations for a 10 day investigation. It’s almost a month of investigation. That’s not what was told to me through 5 different representatives.
Now I’m 2,483 short after having direct deposit with this bank from a job I work 6 days a week at, which is two checks In the hole and the bank does not want to give me my money back. I’ve called the FDIC to file a complaint on this bank as well as the Comp control office and am waiting patiently for my attorney to provide me with the appointment date. I’ve stopped all business with this bank and if I were you, I would do the same. DO NOT DO ANY BUSINESS WITH BANK OF AMERICA!!!! I have an appointment with consumer affairs to get this whole thing investigated as well as the “higher ups” in the “back office” whom are the ones calling the “shots” about this matter. Every representative had a different story and time frame for me of when this will get situated. We have a serious problem and I will go all the way for my innocence. This needed to be documented and revealed for any future discrepancies.

I was trying to add a new bill-pay, but the page does not accept the account number we have with the vendor. Of course there was no explanation as to why, or what is expected. I attempted to find an email address to ask for support, but no luck. BoA des not want to support its customers. Then I called 2 of the support numbers listed on the website, but only was only getting a plethora of useless options. BoA does not offer an option to talk to a representative. They obviously don't want to talk to their customers, and you have to be lucky to find a branch office that is still open nowadays. Bank of America sucks!!!!

I opened a business account under my business name and EIN in February 2022. I used Bank of America because I had a prepaid account and it seemed like an okay bank. However with a prepaid account I can only use the ATM or call. I cannot go into the branch for any transactions. When I opened a business account online they also sent me a business credit card. I never applied for that. I called and asked is this is the process to just send over credits cards when someone request a business account. The representative didn't have an answer for me but to say, "You requested it." I never gave permission to run my credit so I never applied for the card. The phone representative indicated it's my business bank account credit card. My prepaid and business accounts were never merged.
One month later the business credit card declines when I attempt to use it. I called BOA the phone representative said they FORCED closed it. I never received any paper work such as a bill for this forced closed credit card. Fast forward 3 months later I receive a call from the fraudulent department about transactions on the business bank credit card. I admit to one transaction and ask to pay it. The representative at the time allowed me to make a payment towards the balance. When I called 30 days later to make the final payment I was told I cannot make a payment on a closed card. I have never received a bill but how when the card is closed. I understood but I needed to make the payment. Bank of America went into my personal pre paid account under my social and withdrew money for a business credit card balance opened with my EIN number.
When I made a complaint to BBB - Cindy ** and her associate Sandra ** Senior Operations Support Specialist refused to reply to the BBB and indicated they sent a letter of resolution. I never came to an agreement. They never address the fraudulent activity from day one of opening that account. They didn't address connecting 2 accounts under two different names without permission. They sent a letter in the mail that stated - I suggest you make sure your bills are paid because the account is overdrawn. The email sent by Cindy said the same thing. WOW My pre paid BOA account was left overdrawn by BOA. Crappy company. The business account was garbage from day 1. I closed my business account.. customer service a waste of time. This may be a start of identity theft. Be careful with this Bank. BE CAREFUL.

Bank of America has frozen me account and will not allow me access to my money. They state the Risk department put a hold on the account for 180 days. They will not even allow me to transfer the money to another account. Bank of America has stolen my money. I’d give 0 stars if I could.

Online instructions for opening a checking account, for managing a credit card account and for obtaining reward funds from use of credit card are incomplete or misleading. Several separate telephone calls were required in order to complete each of these simple transactions. The agents are patient and friendly but hopelessly ill-informed and must check constantly with higher authority before proceeding to complete a straightforward customer request. I've wasted more time dealing with Bank of America and its self-serving policies than with any other bank with which I have done business in the past. I won't bore readers with additional details, instead, I'll simply close with a few words to those who are pondering the pluses and minuses of dealing with B of A: "DON'T SAY YOU HAVEN'T BEEN WARNED!".

I have multiple accounts, BOA, Schwab, 401k etc... I also have family I regularly send funds to. All of a sudden all my external accounts are gone and my option to transfer funds is not working. Accounts that I regularly use. Hours on hold. Hours getting no answer. On hold constantly. Can't even close my account because of a missing $3,000!!!! No one to explain where this money went. Transfer only has my name and no other details. No customer service to even answer the phone. On hold for half an hour after hours of useless online run around.

This bank is the worst in the world. I'm having several problems with my business account. When I deposit checks they hold my money for SEVERAL days. When I make a transfer through zelle they hold my transfer and do not transfer the money to the account. This is causing me a lot of problems. With this bank I just don't have free access to my own. Now I’m just trying to get a specialist on the phone and I’ve been transferred 4 times to 4 different people and no one can solve a SINGLE problem I'm having.

I made a purchase with a company called Rolling Cart for two planter boxes for a total of $97.80. The company never sent the items purchased and would not respond to emails. So I filed a dispute with Bank Of America which they gave me a temporary credit of $97.80. They then removed it on 26 April. They ruled in favor of the merchant by reason that I made the purchase which I did. However Bank of America does not provide the option of "Item not received" on their dispute page on their web site, If that option was available the ruling would have been in my favor and not the merchants.

I deposited a check few thousand dollar check from a customer made out to my business which is also my name as a dba. They flagged it as fraud, made my account -$888,888. Told me they opened an investigation and it could take a long time. Ultimately they called the issuing bank and customer got a call to verify. It wasn't that simple at first they needed to make a huge issue and put me through a nightmare. Just recently had a debit card transaction marked suspicious so they froze my account and I had to waste over an hour trying to reach a live person as that was all the only way it could be resolved. What a terrible experience dealing with this bank.
The only reason I still use them is because my mortgage come out of there. I my wife has used them forever so we have a joint account. I try to use it as little as possible. I do business with two other banks. One local and one national. Never had trouble with anyone but BofA. When I started paying myself by writing checks from business account they held the check for weeks because they thought it was suspicious that both signatures front and back were the same.

They have blackball me and now my money in limbo I received my disability benefits cause they decided to close my accounts for me and my son. I'm very angry cause I did nothing wrong to have my account closed and it unfair to me and my son that we have no money cause of their decisions. I'm missing about 1254 dollars and I want your people out there to stay away from banks like this. They don't care for the customers unless it involves them making and taking money from but if you fight for your money these are the results of it.

The website is very slow. Doesn't work properly. When you try to go back, It logs you out. It lets you save your log-in and password which is a bad thing. Log and open the computer and log into your banking.

BoA's online banking service is overall top notch and very user friendly.

Banking with Bank of America has easy access to banking online. I have been banking with them ever since 1979 and still is. The reason why Bank of America is still in business is they have improved over the years, and you can rest assure that you will be too if you decide to bank with them. Now and forever.

Revert convenient, quick, confidential, accurate. Always at your fingertips. Can go go back to check your work/figures as often as you like and everything is neat and just as you left it! Most helpful to me is the convenience as well as the accuracy, so that I never have to worry if the figures are right and I don’t have to double and triple check them.

The online banking is good. But the local brick and mortar bank has slowww tellers who let long lines accumulate while the employees act impervious. There were more employees than customers. Two tellers who didn’t seem to notice the line getting longer and more restless. As they kept their heads down and dragged out the transactions exclusively with the same 2 customers. The rest of us, who were waiting, shifted, looked bewildered and ignored. Because we were. The other, non-tellers were also clueless to the facts. Doing God knows what. But intentionally leaving us to fend for ourselves. SHAME!!
