Credit Card Fraud by Bank of America
I am both a mortgage and credit card customer of Bank of America (BOA). Earlier in the year I held two BOA credit cards. Under promotional rates I transferred balances to each credit card. Around March 2009, BOA took over the Upromise credit card program from Citi. At that time my two existing BOA credit cards were enrolled in automatic payment plans with Bank of America.

When I received my new BOA Upromise card, I also set that up for automatic payments. According to a BOA rep, BOA then added a "profile" for my new Upromise card to my online account access. According to the same rep, that process always cancels anything that is set up on my existing online banking accounts. They specifically told me that their update of my profile reset my automatic payment enrollment option to "No." Of course I was not made aware of this, nor did BOA obtain my consent to do this.

The result of BOA's actions were to charge me late payment fees and increase my interest rates. On my call to BOA, the rep immediately acknowledged the issue and corrected the problem, agreeing to credit the over charges. I specifically asked that all features be returned, which includes balance transfer promotions. I was assured this would be reflected in the next billing cycle and that my auto payments would resume again at that time.

Long story short, the balance transfer promotions have been cancelled and BOA has been charging me excess interest for the last 6-7 months. BOA has simply stated that they cannot comply with my request at this time. BOA will not provide senior management contact information and has solely directed me to their "Customer Solutions" mailing address.

This amounts to fraudulent activity and theft in my opinion. I will attempt to contact BOA one last time over the weekend before attempting to contact senior executive Richard Struthers. That failing, I will certainly file suit.

If you have experienced a similar problem with BOA, please feel free to send me a message using this website. To the extent a class action suit is filed, this will be helpful. To the extent my issue is resolved, I can provide you with information about how it was resolved.

unfair fees
I have had a Bank America credit card for years and have no problems
with your company. My son is a student at Penn State and we opened him
up a checking account with your bank. He and I have had no experience
with atm cards. He overdrafted his card for $69.57 and your bank
charged his account $405.00. You never contacted him or myself until
two weeks had past even though you had a telephone number on us. Do you
not think $405.00 is a bit overboard for a $69.57 mistake? No one
informed us of these fees and we were never contacted about the
overdraft through email or telephone. Why would you give money on a
card that holds a negative balance except to scam unknowing student and
patrons out of their hard working dollars. This is no way to make
customers loyal to your bank or any of your other services: mortgages,
money markets, and or credit cards. I am a 52 year old and I have never
experienced this type of embezzlement. I went to the bank near my home
in Margate yet the bank associate, Marina Breslin never contacted me
back about the progress of this case. She emailed her boss and she was
supposed to call my cell. As I was never notified of the overdraft I
was never contacted about the result of my contact with her. I see this
as a scam directed at students unfamiliar with atm cards. This morning
this unethical practice by your bank was the lead story on KYW news. I
am going to foward this email to them and every other news organization
that will listen to my story. $405.00 on a $69.57 overdraft is insane.
Your agents never made us aware of this practice and we are appalled at
your practice of taking innocent student's money. I paid the bank the
$70.00 they paid out but I will fight you for the $405.00 fee.
The best way you can help reward present customers and get new
customers is to not steal your way to profitability.I will await a
reply form you, as I am still awaiting a reply from Ms Breslin. Your
apathy toward your customers breeds contempt for your bank and makes
anyone experiencing this practice hate your bank.

Sincerely,
Robin Lyons

Bad Service
My husband called Bank of America back on the 4th of April to close his credit account. No problems there. The account was paid off, so he figured that was that. A few days ago he did a check on his credit report to see that under Bank of America the account was filed as delinquent. Turns out somehow a transaction went through on the 19th of April even though the account was closed weeks prior. This charge, which we have no idea where it came from was basically just sitting there, gaining interest without us even knowing about it. Thankfully when he called Bank of America again to find out what happened, they didn't know, but did clear the charge and "reclosed" the account, if that makes sense. So now we're just sitting back waiting for that to go through so we won't have that delinquent account anymore.

Bank of America helped us in the end, I guess you could say. They did manage to fix their mistake. Hopefully that's the last we have to deal with them.

Loan pre-approval then denied
I am trying to buy my first home. I received pre-approval for a loan through Bank of America. I made my offer on a home. Put down ernest money, paid for a home inspection and $500 for the loan application. Jumped through many home mortgage hoops only to be denied the loan through Bank of America after I received pre-approval. Is this the new bank scam? Pre approve you then steal your application laon fee? Comsumer BEWARE of BANK of AMERICA mortgage pre-approval SCAM!

Mortgage Loan
I have probably had the poorest customer service experience of my life with Bank of America which has continued for the last two months. They lost my mortgage check, told me to put a stop pay, then found it over a month later and attempted to cash. I was charged for a stop pay and they have not reimbursed. They promised to take of late charge, and would not. They even had a copy of the check that was lost in processing.

I faxed them paperwork three times that they said they were processing. The last time I called, a rep said someone dropped the ball and he realized that it was processed wrong, so I needed to fax recent information again. They said it would be another 45 days. I received conflicting information from multifple customer service reps. i even have proof from a loan officer who was on the conference call. It's pathetic. I can never speak to the same person, because they won't let you. I waited on hold for hours only to be transferred five times. I am not exagerating. My friends and family will be cancelling all cards . If I could move my mortgage, I would.

This is the worst bank in history!! Don't bank there!!!

OVER DRAFT FEES
THE WAY THEY POSTED THE TRANSACTIONS IN ORDER FOR YOUR ACCOUNT TO BE OVERDRAWN.. THIS HAPPENED TO ME FOR THE LAST 3 MONTHS, MY DEPOSITS WERE NEVER ENOUGH NO MATTER HOW MUCH WE PUT IN OUR ACCOUNT, THEY ALWAY MOVED THE TRANSACTIONS AROUND SO THAT IT WOULD BE OVERDRAWN.

checking account/savings account
I have a checking and savings with this bank with direct deposit of my pay check. They received my pay and charges at the sametime resulting in a $1.04 deficit. They charged my account over $105.00 in overdraft fees!
I've seen other posts here and realize this is a very common occurance. They are absolutely correct in the this bank is a SCAM! I am closing my account immediately and recommend everyone else to do the same!!!

Wont help Rescue Mortgages
I have a "Fannie Mae" mortgage managed by Bank of America,
they will not even speak with me about mitgation of my mortgage, to help rescue it from foreclosure. I have called them no less the six times and spent hours trying to reach their mitgation dept to no avail. I thought the government gave the banks money to help rescue mortgages which are severely unside down and in imminent danger of going into foreclosure...BOA is cheating us citizens of the recovery money from the government.

was told something that was not true
This is a personal account. My account was stolen on july 27, 2009 I reported this on July 27, 2009 to Bank of America, I ask can my account be closed they told me no". There reason is we don't have to close your account we can just send you a knew card, never recieve a card, so on July 31, 2009 I went into the branch in Silver spring and told them what was going on they told me to open a new account I did, first I ask them what ever I put into my new account will not interfer with the old account, they told me "no it will be ok trust us" so I did, now I am frustraed because I belive in them and there staff. My money was taking from my new account and put into my old account account which should have never happen. I was told by the bank itself and the staff on the phone that this would not happen, My account is negative due to fraud, also I have sent them the police claim # and they are telling me that my case is denied please explain that to me.I fill this is unfair to me and unexceptable behavier from BOA.
