Stalling on foreclosure
My house has been in foreclosure for 2 years now and I just want it to be done already, bank of america keeps sending me papers saying it is going to auction, but it never does, I moved out 8 months ago, and am being sued by the HOA for not paying dues and all kinds of other things, not to mention the 2 years of late payments that go on my credit. I wish they would get their crap together and take the house already. I tried a modification, a short sale, and multiple other things to keep the house and that didn't work, now I just don't get why they are taking so long to take the house, I am tired of wondering and waiting, I could be rebuilding my credit already. What can I do to get them to get it done?

closed credit card
I had a credit card with bank of America for 5 years.they closed a few days ago stating that i had too many authorized users on the account and they weren't happy with that. I have been late with my payment once 2 years ago and besides that have always had low balances which i always payed in full. My only explanation for what happened is that article i found yesterday http://20somethingfinance.com/reader-question-bank-of-america-closing-my-account-after-i-opted-out-of-a-rate-increase/

Loan Modification Program
my name is michelle and i live in los angeles. i have been appling for a loan modification with Bank of America since november 2009 with the help of NACA and Operation Hope. At this time was also the merger of bank of america and countrywide in which my original loan was with. unaware that Bank of America had sold my loan to a private investor/bank called The Bank of New York Mellon i continue to asked/apply for loan modification. ater 17 months of none payment which they told me to stop paying in order to get approval i finally found out in January 2011 that there was NO way that bank of america could have given me a loan modification under and Making Home Affordable program or any home affordable program because they sold my loan and they were no longer the lien holder and that bank of america was only a sevicer and The Bank of New York Mellon who has been holding my loan does not participate in any government loan modification program or any modification program. bank of america always knew and was very aware that no matter what i would do i would never be helped or qualified for any loan through bank of america. bank of america knew since 2009 that my loan had been sold to a private investor but continue to string me along with all the letters of "we can help you". if this is not one of those bank scams!...i am still fighting and will continue...if anyone knows any resolution or can help me or any pending lawsuits that i can join please contact me at the above email...any other bank of america clients PLEASE check and see who own your loan...

Incredibly poor service
After a number of extra payments were incorrectly posted as scheduled payments, I was advised by the bank to send payments to specifically a payment processing center, which I did. Payments were still often posted incorrectly even in spite of printing and yellow-highlighting "Principal Only" in three different places on the checks. The latest payment was returned by USPS because "forward time expired." Since forwarding time typically expires after one year, it's difficult to understand why Bank of America didn't find the time and a bit of courtesy to send a change of address notice.
The problem is most likely caused by machine handling of mailed payments. But it would be so easy for any bank to specify a different PO box for extra or additional payments to separate them from regular payments that blaming machines is simply an excuse for poor service.
I've suggested selling the mortgage to a competent lender, but of course that's not one of the bank's form responses.

$1500 in NSF fees in a year!
I am a small business customer in Philadelphia, PA. I have been in business and banking with you for a year now. I opened my account in January 2010. I have taken advantage of a lot your services including 2 checking accounts and merchant services. Last year I have had a lot of problems with over-draft fees. At the time you did not offer overdraft protection between checking accounts. I could not afford a savings account at the time and I have paid about $1000 in fees to you last year. I’m not complaining about that because that was last year I just hope this year is better for me. But it gets very frustrating when you are a struggling business owner trying to make it in the economy.
i want 2 address a situation that I have incurred in your Philadelphia Branch on 10th & chestnut st on January 20, 2011. Around 11:30am I walked into the branch in hopes of finding a resolution to the $175 in over draft fees I was being charged for. I was helped by the branch manager, well at least I thought I would be helped. I went to him with my problems and he immediately shut me down with “I’m sorry but its nothing I can do”. I asked him about one fee of $35 that came out that day because it was funds available in my account, he could not explain why I was being charged again. The conversation went back & forth for a minute or two before I asked to speak with a manager. He then told me that he was the manager. Not once did he introduce himself to me- the whole time we spoke I thought he was just a customer service rep. I then asked to speak to another manager or maybe a supervisor, because I feel like its always something that can be done and I felt that I had a valid argument.
He then ended up giving me a number for a woman named Claudia Dulac. I called the number in his presence and the number was a automated machine. I then asked for a number or a email or address that I can contact her at. He then left and came back with a number and proceeded to call her in the room and place the call on speakerphone. He never closed the door and everyone seated in the waiting area heard my whole conversation! As I spoke to Claudia she was not really listening to me as if she really didn’t even care for the phone call. As I was trying to explain what my problem was she just kept saying that it was my fault, and she’s making the final decision to do nothing for me. I asked her who do I talk to if I wanted to put in a complaint or is it a district manager that I can talk to after her. She then said “No, I will not give you any information, someone will call you”. the Manager took the call off speaker said some things to her and they hung up. He told me that I had to leave because they were not going to help me or give me any information.
I know my business is small and I may not be one your million dollar customers but I’m still “A” customer! I asked him (manager) for Claudia’s information, he told me he would not give it to me, after some back & forth I called the Bank of America 1-800# in his presence because I figured they would assist me better with filing a complaint. As I’m on the phone, he started to call the POLICE! He called someone on his cell phone and then the Philadelphia police on me because I wanted a phone number and contact information of somebody that would be willing to help me. The woman from the 800# was on the phone with me and heard everything! It was the most embarrassing situation I’ve ever experienced in my life! Mind you the whole time the door is open and the whole lobby is watching me like a show! As I’m explaining the situation to the #800 rep. he tried to write down a name & number for me, as the police are there waiting. I told him I was going to close my account he showed No interest at all in keeping me as a customer. I asked him who was supposed to be calling me back and he said “ I don’t know, maybe someone from customer service or customer resolution”. well I said how are they going to contact me? Not once did he ask me for any of my contact information. Which leads me to believe that no one was ever going to call me back.
I was embarrassed and humiliated. The woman at the call center heard the conversation and understood my reasons for being upset. She helped me so much she explained to me that I was eligible for overdraft protection set me up with a new account and refunded those fees. I was very grateful. At that point I didn’t even care about the fees anymore, I just wanted to file a complaint but honestly if it wasn’t for the woman Kristen from the Montana call center I would have closed my account.
Bottom line I have never been more embarrassed in my life. What did I do that I would make him feel that threatened that he needed to call the Police on me! I’m a young black female and I was alone. I have never been treated like that from ANYBODY! I am 30 years old and never have I ever had any legal issues. I never threatened anybody or had anything that could harm anybody. Did I get the police called on me because I was black? Or is this is how you treat your customers because they want to file a complaint? I thought as a customer if I wanted contact information on someone such as a manager I was able to get it? I’m hurt and confused. And I would never go into that branch again let alone downtown to do my banking, because of that humiliation. Before I left I was able to get the manager’s name that put me thru this drama, it is…

Unexplained charges
As the owner of my own business and having studied hotel management at an ivy-league university, I know quite a bit about customer service. And I can say with absolute confidence that Bank of America has the absolute worst customer service I have ever experienced. It shocks me how such a large organization like yours can have complete disregard for those who trust them with their money.
Last Saturday (January 14th, 2011), I called to speak to someone about my Annual Percentage Rate, which is a whole other story in and of itself how can they charge a 30% rate? That is absolutely ridiculous. Its a bank, not a pawn shop. One would assume that a financial establishment would hold higher standards and respect for their clients.
I spoke to one of their customer representatives that day. He was incredibly rude and unhelpful. His negativity alone made me upset, so I asked to speak with his manager. He retorted back in an angry tone, to which I answered before he cut me off mid-sentence. I finally spoke with his supervisor, who was somewhat helpful. He tried his best, Im sure, but he was still not friendly nor concerned with what I had to say. Nevertheless, I was satisfied that he gave me somewhat of a solution.
A couple days later, I check my online account and I see that a late fee, which is completely unjustified and false, was charged to my account. On January 15th. Coincidence? Words cannot even begin to describe my anger at this situation. How can they even hire someone that would do something like this? Unprofessional doesnt even begin to describe his character. His actions are completely unacceptable and borders on illegal. I sincerely hoped that, as a company, would recognize his behavior: his demeanor is negative, his actions are obvious and blatantly malicious.
I called in to speak with someone about this entire situation. It took me 3 tries to get through to someone, and, when I did, I had to hold for 15 minutes. I explained everything, and the woman I spoke to today (I dont remember her name) was unenthused and apathetic. She defended his actions, and she refused to listen to me. She wouldnt let me speak, nor did she care when I did. In the end, she spun the entire story as if it was my fault. I had not used this card nor made any late payments, so this charge should not have occurred whatsoever.
I understand that the representatives have limits in what they can or cant do, but a simple apology or understanding would have been more than welcomed. But, no, characteristic to the horrendous incapability of their staff, I was left with no answers and more frustration.
In the end, this has nothing to do with the $35 late fee. Thats just chump change. This has to do with the principle of respecting their clients. Their customer representatives have no idea what they are doing. Were they not trained? If they were, they have not learned anything.
Bank of America, please, dont be cheap. Hire some more people, spend a little more money on more competent people, and youll have a much smoothly working service with much happier clients. Start focusing your attention on improving your customer service. Immediately. Stop getting meddled in the politics of money (which we probably dont want to get into right now, considering your sticky situation), and start focusing on the people who give you your money to begin with.

BOA forced me to give them an interest-free loan
I recently moved to Texas, and since my trusted bank (where I keep my REAL money) doesn't operate here, I decided to open up a Bank of America checking account for petty cash - even though I had heard terrible things about them - because their ATMs were so ubiquitous. I figured I would try them for a few months and see how it went. During the "interview" they asked me about my income and where I worked - I asked why, and they said it was for direct deposit purposes. I told them I didn't want to do direct deposit yet, and they said that was OK. Things went fine for about 2 months - I deposited a few small checks (approx. $200 each) and got cash a couple times, but never even came close to overdrawing the account. Then I decided to up the ante and deposit a payroll check I had received for consulting work - $950. It went through fine. Then, the next day, BOA withdraws $850 from my account because "The deposit is higher than your usual deposit" - WHAT?!?! Since when is that a BAD thing?!?! They held it for SIX DAYS - essentially forcing me to give them an interest-free loan...something they'd never do for me, of course. I'm pulling my money out tomorrow. They're a bunch of usurers.

Account closed and charged
I opened an account at Bank of America 12/29/2008 hoping to transfer from Chase because I was looking to buy a home and decided I was going to use Bank of America. By 09/2009 I decided I was going to stick with Chase and went to close the Bank of America account on 9/21/2009. When I went to close it I was told that I owed $10.95 because I had already transferred the balance back to my Chase account. The $10.95 fee was for credit monitoring that I had on the account. I paid the fee so that the account was -0- and then told the teller I wanted the account closed. She went for another lady who proceeded to "close" the account, I should note that I've never closed a bank account before so when she told me that the account was closed and gave me my receipts for the payment I made I went on my merry way. On 03/02/2010 I received a letter from ERS solutions Inc. stating that I owed Bank of America $128.26, I called the bank to inquire what the charges were and was told that they were for credit monitoring. I informed them that the account had been closed since 09/21/2009 and asked how a closed account could be charged for credit monitoring. The representative told me that the account was not closed properly and that they were at fault and after giving all the details I was told that it would be taken cared of. I had not heard anything from Bank of America since after I closed the account to make me suspicious of the fact the account was still open. After speaking to the Representative in 03/2010 I had not heard or received anything further. Fast forward to 01/2011 I receive a letter from NCO Financial System about the same $128.26. I again explained the situation to the credit collector and contacted Bank of America only to get a run around, about how old the issue was and if I had resolved it sooner they would be able to give me a credit. They said they no longer have access to the information since it's with a collection agency. I first called customer service who gave me the number to recovery services who couldn't help and told me to call customer service, which connected me to customer solutions that sent me back to recovery. They told me that if I had closed the account I should have received a statement saying it was closed, which I never got and since I never closed an account and they never said that when I went to the Bank to close it, i guess I have no proof i actually closed it. Other than the fact that i am not dumb and I am cheap and hell and would never leave an account for charged to be billed for no reason. Clearly they are trying to make it seem as if I am at fault when I've spoken to reps who told me they were at fault and now they try to turn the table saying I should have known that I had to receive a statement saying the account was closed. I have $128.26 that is in collection and I refuse to pay it because I spend my time and money monitoring my accounts and money to ensure I am not being scammed by individuals and it's the institutions that you trust to be trustworthy end up cheating you. I don't pay lifelock and check my credit report trying to keep my name clear and myself debt free for Bank of America's billionaires to try to cheat me out of $128.26. They will get that money when I die. They can dig my body out of the ground and sell my body parts in order to get that money, but as long as I am alive they will not get that money. I've never owed a single person, or company for anything. I pay all my bills before they are due but I won't pay a bill I know I don't owe, I am not made of money Bank of America and if you heard otherwise then bully for you!

Modification Program
I received a packet from BAC for a modification on my current loan in March of 2010. I complied with all the documention and information requested and returned via fed-ex to BAC. After several months of continous follow-up calls and being advised that all my documentation was in place and that the file was being reviewed, on Jan. 5 2011 I was notified via Fed-Ex that my modification was denied due to missing documents. Is somebody kidding me!!! I called and again got the run around. My mortgage payments went from $1487 a month to $1883 a month due to an escrow account being set up. So now what????? I do believe that these people need to get with the program!!! I have been paying into a program I haven't even been approved for yet!!! Who's idea was that?????

Dishonest Refinance Good Faith Estimate
Attempted to refinance my home 7 mortgages with Bank of America. They took money from my bank account without approval and are taking their time with refunding it. I'm sure this is just one more way they take advantage of customers taking funds and gathering interest on money that doesn't belong to them.
Tried to charge me application fees and lender fees on loans they already had in house. I can't understand how our tax dollars were used to bail out these people.
