I do not have enough words to explain how bad this bank is
I would rate them absolute NEGATIVE if there was an option for that -8 them. They hide behind legalities and documentation like lawyers with a pathological lying disorder. They charged me annually for my credit card like 29$ yearly. Not so bad right? WRONG. The reason they got me to get the damn credit card in the first place was because they told me there was no annual fee. I even asked them if they there were any hidden fees. (Yes stupid question. As if any of them would admit that.) After I had it for like 2 months I found the stupid annual fee for it. So I went there and talked to them about it. They said that it was only 1 time and I would never get charged again for it and said that the 25$ referral fee they gave me would just minus it out anyways. So I thought fine so I lose 4 bucks ok. BADDER still the 25$ referral fee they gave me wasn't instantly given. I found out it was sent in by mail. Which already expired days prior. So went there again and they told me that I had to call the number on the card and that the bank outlet could'nt help me with that. So went home and called the number and guess what the guy on the phone said? "Sorry we do not issue checks. You have to go to your local bank to ask for a new one." F*** THEM hard.
Did I mention they also have affiliations with dubious scammers?
Two words: RESERVATION REWARDS
I forgot to mention this. I was still getting CHARGED annually. Talked to them again and they said they would get me a new credit card. I got the mail and it said I did'nt have enough credit score...
BURN THEM TO HELL WITH THIS RECESSION!!!
They also charge me minor fees that have absolutely no sense.
I'm also posting this on as many review sites as I can get! I don't want anyone else to suffer because of them!

Credit card
I had a credit card with Bank of America and carried a balance. I purchased, from Bank of America's website account insurance to take care of this debt incase of involuntary unemployment or disability. I suffered a disabling injury in Oct. 2008 and filed with the insurance company that Bank of America owns. They repeatedly denied my claim.
I have been declared permanently disabled for a year by the Social Security Adminstration as my arm is not likely to grow back.
The insurance company that Bank of America markets on their website is liable for this debt, not me because of the insurance I had purchased in good faith. I filed a claim and they repeatedly denied it.
I look forward to seeing them in court and intend to sue for fraud for selling insurance and not having any intent for honoring claims.

Escrow overpayment reimbursment
I discovered Bank of America owed me $954.26, when I found the escrow check with tax return papers in January 2010. Dated 2/24/09, the check was void after 180 days, but my local BOA assured me that it would be reissued, when they completed their process.
The idiocy began 6 weeks ago with Inquiry #1. It first went through the wrong department of their own mortgage division. When the promised time expired we were subsequently told why.
Their process restarted with ReInquiry #2 and when said check did not arrive as promised the next inquiry revealed the check number submitted was incorrect. The number they noted as incorrect was the exact number on the original check in my hand. So they resubmitted it to the correct department, promising a new check in hand in one week. When Inquiry #3 failed to materialize a new check, it was explained the original check, void for 0ver 4 months, had to receive a stop payment order, before the new check could be processed. That initiated ReInquiry #4 with the promise of a personal phone call to me as soon as the check's status was known, as soon as the proper person could be found to verify the check's status, enroute or not. Whew!
That was 5 days ago. I shouldn't complain, as I could be the poor person waiting on the phone to call me.

The worst customer service I've ever had in my life
Tuesday, (3/24) I went into your Branch at Gilbert and Guadalupe to pay overdraft fees and figure out why I wasn't receiving banking notifications. I was already very embarrassed about the situation, and the teller made me feel like I wasn't valued at all. When I asked about the notifications, she automatically assumed I was trying to get out of fees, and proceeded to tell me any errors were mine and my fees were not her problem. It was extremely rude and unprofessional. At this point I asked if there was a phone number or person I could talk to higher up, and she refused, saying there was none. I've always had great service with Bank of America, but I was so upset by this experience, I asked her to close my account. I doubt I'll be back. That was the worst customer service I've ever had in my life.

Ripping their consumer off
Recently I opened a savings account at Bank of America in San Diego (Rancho Bernardo branch). I was told that I had to open a checking account and deposit a small amount of like $25. It was just formality. My February shows that they charged me $20 service fees.
What is wrong with this bank? I had heard horror stories about them, but never had experience any. Mine is not a honor story. It is just dishonesty. Bank’s stupidity and lack of competency got us into the current mess and now they are ripping off consumers.

Lack of processing a short sale
Same complaint on Bank of America lack of fire under their asses to process our short sale of almost 1 year! Same information, all documents sent, two arrasials, the whole nine yards. As of April of 09, we have had
( 4 ) buyer's! All but one so far, have gotten sick of waiting for a negoitator to take the file, and send it to the "investors". We are contacting a lawer. This has to be criminal. We can't even get a car because this is still over our head.

answer is always NO
I banked with Bank of America for over 15 years, and finally had enough of their "NO", "NO", "NO" to loan requests, and their ever-increasing fees for everything. I switched to BECU (Boeing Employees Credit Union and within one month, got one of their VISA cards, a line of credit, and refinanced my vehicle through them. In addition to getting the usual Debit card. I have good credit but even still Bank of America always said no, so I had to go. It helped seeing all the things on TV about the banks, and seeing a guy standing on the corner near my local Bank of America, telling people to leave Bank of America and go to a local credit union.. I'M THRILLED THAT I DID.

I really regret having an account in Bank of America
There has been a random transaction of deduction of monthly maintenance fee on my checking account. I work in US since last two years and my salary gets deposited in this account. Still, this monthly maintenance fee has got deducted from my account randomly 5-6 times. I called BOFA cust service multiple times and every time they assured me that the amount will be refunded and they said they will put a note of my conversation regarding this on my account. But the amount never got credited. I have lost more than $25 in such way in last two years. Again this happened in November 2008 and I kept calling customer service and they said they cant do anything about the previous amounts since it is more than 90 days on those transactions but they will refund the recent one. Again it was not refunded. Recently I called BOFA two weeks back and they said I need to go to Bank and only the Bank center can see the transactions and they can refund me. I went to the Banking center today and the manager kept telling me that it is too late now since it is more than 90 days she can’t do anything, She said she can not find any notes of my conversation with customer service center. Instead of sympathizing with me and trying to find out solution, she kept asking me the name of the customer representative and the time of the call. I have called cust service more than 10 times, Am I supposed to note the name of the cust rep each time? This is ridiculous. I mean, who does that? And if she does not have the resource to find the notes of my conversation with them on my account, what good the name and the time of the call do? The manager knew that whatever deductions have happened were wrong but she did not agree even after I told her than this is my salary account and I have been working since last two years. I was expecting she would at least say that the charges were wrong and she can make sure they do not happen again but instead she kept saying that she can not do anything because of the law of 90 days. I was not asking her to refund my money from her own pockets. Her attitude was rude and it clearly seemed she did not want to help or find any resolution. I finally asked if she can check the setup of my account and try to find if my account was wrongly setup because of which I am being charged the monthly maintenance fee but she said she does not have access to that and not trained to do so. And she was calling herself manager of the banking center. I was highly surprised and did not know what to say. Finally she said she can send email to concerned department to research this problem. She did not take my account number nor my name and since it was bank's closing time she got up and indicated that I should leave. It was obvious that she would not send any email about the research request without my account number and name. I had no choice but to leave. She moved on to open the Bank's closed door and I left. I am sure now that nothing is going to happen about the money I lost and I don’t know what to do if they again charge me the monthly maintenance fee. This has been my worst experience with BOFA. I really regret having an account here.

FHA requirements
I try to re finance my existing home loan. We are offered an FHA loan and we pay the $400 for the appraisal up front. The loan officer has no clue what he's doing and we wait 6 weeks for communcation. The appraisal says we have some chipping paint on our 40 year old home and it has to be rectified before we can close. We have had two feet of snow and below average tempurature and it's January. No body can paint a window in 4 degrees on an icy roof. I explain to these Texas folks that it's not gongto happen, and find tis is only a requirement on the FHA! Then Bank of America cannot convert it to a conventional loan as they say our credit rating is too low. We check it ourselves and their numbers are almost 100 points lower than what we pull of the websites directly. They promise our 400 returned, I hav not seen it.

theft of funds
I opened an account online with B of A. To do so they require that you deposit $25 in order to open the account. I transferred that from my Wells Fargo acct, and the transaction showed up immediately on my Wells Fargo account. A week later I was sent a statement saying my account had been opened, had a balance of $25 and here was my debit card. A few weeks later I made an $18 purchase. I held on to the original statement saying the account balance for about a month before I got rid of it. Three weeks later I got a notice saying I had overdrafted because when I made that $18 purchase, my account balance was $0. I cannot find the transfer anywhere on my wells fargo statement anymore, it just straight up disappeared from it and have no paperwork to prove they told me I had a $25 balance. They claim they have no proof of any such statement being sent. How could I have opened my account had I not deposited money!?!?! I now owe them $88 and they are threatening to send me to collections.
