Yesterday, Jul 23, 2008, I tried to open a CD account with Bank of America online, and in addition to all the standard information (name, age, SSN, address, mother's maiden name, citizenship, routing number and account number) I was also asked to provide my user ID and password to the -another - bank account from which the CD would be funded. Stunned, I called their 800 number and they confirmed that, since I was not an existing customer with Bank of America, I had to provide the user name and password to my account at the other bank, or else could not open the CD.

I strongly believe this kind of information should have been disclosed first-hand, to avoid me entering all my credentials in vain. And what happens now to all my personal information, since I don't even have an account with them, so Bank of America cannot be held responsible for leaking it out?

This morning I went in person to their local branch, and the manager was as surprised as I was to hear that I was asked the user ID and password to access my banking account at another bank. My going in person to the local branch didn't solve the problem though, since apparently they, the local branch), have no communication with the online banking department, other than calling the same 800 number I had called the previous day. According to the local branch manager I talked to, they don't even share the same database!

Needless to say, I would never open an account with Bank of America, if it means to give away my user name AND password to my account at another bank!

I have been banking with BofA for 15 years. Recently the grossly overpriced fees have been getting to me financially. A few months back I was late on two payments to a credit card held by BofA. About two months later the bank closed the account and raised the minimum payments from about $700/ month to $1900/month. Well, now I am unemployed with no way to pay them off. Now they are sending me to a collection agency after "trying to help". If they had not closed the *** account in the first place, I would have been ok. Do not bank with this company, when times get rough they send their henchmen to get their money with no regard for the consumer.

My wife and I would have been doing well, except for this housing crisis caused in part by the *** banks giving everyone in the world credit and mortgages. Now they are getting the *** credit card holders with only minor blemishes.

Soon, I will be closing my other credit and bank accounts with bank of America. Adios to you BofA. Thanks for cleaning my family and many others out of their hard earned cash.

Some one took $31.98 out of my checking account and I’m pissed you took it out with out my knowing what it is for so return it or else.

I want to complain about the "new" ATM's that are at my branch. These new machines do NOT allow for any privacy for deposits or withdrawals.

If I dont complain about it, then nothing gets done to change these machines back to a secure screen. I have forbid my wife from any transactions thru the ATM because anyone behind you or even to the side can SEE exactly what is on the screen.

Also with the scanned deposits, anyone that may loose that transaction sheet could have issues with all the names/addresses/phone numbers that show on the screen receipt.

Did ANYONE at bank of America even think all of this thru, I have only 10 mins with the machine making a deposit and withdraw and seen all these security issues!

I would like a response back letting me know if this is how it is going to be with the ATM, (unsecured) because if it is, I need to re-think our banking. (And I do know that Bank of America doesnt care of the people that have been with them for 37 years.. just another account, to BofA)

My boyfriend and I had just moved to California in February. We were banking with PNC in Pennsylvania and they aren't located in CA. I went with BOA because that is where my job banked so I figured that it would be easier. There was also a $75 coupon in the Val Pak for new checking accounts. So I went to the office, set up my accounts and he stapled my coupon to the back of the paperwork said that it would be there in my account in about 30 days. So, 30 days rolls around- nothing. 60 days rolls around- nothing. I called the number that is on the website and heaven forbid I speak to an actual person- I finally get to a person and they said that unless when he set up my account, he entered the code- they can't do anything about it.

I am in the process of looking for a new bank- all over $75 that they won't give to me.
