Bank of America Auto loan

I recently applied for the auto loan. They kept workaround for a week; this causes my order was canceled. In order to keep my order, I had to sign finance with my dealer. After that, I called them to cancel the car loan; they said the cancel was requested. After 2 weeks, I still saw my car loan. I called them again. They said they had not received any check from the dealer. I called my dealer and they said they had not received any check from Bank of America and asked me to request the check tracking number or any proof that they sent the check. I called bank again and they could have not provided any tracking number or proof they had sent the check and required me to pay the interest until the loan is canceled. They just kept ask me to call this department and others but no solution was provided. I write this review hopefully help some one to avoid or be careful when deciding to apply the loan with Bank of America. Please be careful!

Desired outcome: Please help to guild to reach the right agent to handle the issue. Please provide the proof that you sent the loan check to the dealer

Bank of America Checking account

Bank of america closed my checking account without notifying me. The reason i was given was because my ex wife name is on the account and she has to appear in person to take her name off the account. I informed BOA that my ex wife lives in Germany and has remmaried and changed her name.

BOA sent me two checks total over 17,000 usd which is what was in my account when they closed it. I've been fighting this for 8 months and been toal thats the only course of action.

Desired outcome: I would like to have all my moeny returned to a BOA account.

Bank of America Business online banking experience

I have been on the phone for an hour and not gotten the answers I need. The online banking experience with Bank of America is the worst I've ever experienced. Payment page does not reference card accounts, nor does it give you statement balance or minimum payment information to make the payment experience easier. Difficult. Frustrating and I'm ready to throw something!

Desired outcome: Fix the damn interface so it doesn't suck. Look at USAA Banking or pretty much any other banking online payment service and it is better than this one.

Bank of America Several

I was recently defrauded $1,000 by your customer service agent(10/03/2023) and your slow moving no status updating fraud department has offered no additional help or communications. My next step is law enforcement and judicial means.I recently filed with Consumer Affairs. Secondly I have a SDI Account and the money is deposited like clockwork every 14 days and like clockwork on the 15th day whenever I attempt to access it, a hold has been placed and I have to speak to a customer service agent which is exactly how I ended up getting a $1,000 stolen, dealing with one of your unscrupulous employees in the first place. Thirdly I'm given a myriad of validation questions by at least 3 different extremely slow speaking agents all of which placing me on hold throughout with no sense of urgency or concern. It is dereliction on the part of the state of California for choosing this institution.

Desired outcome: Refund of my $1,000 and a different banking institution handle receiving my disability payments

To follow up with my previous complaint, today 10-13-2024 I had to go inside the branch to be verified after my card again was placed on hold. While in the Carson Branch, the banker had to call the same customer service number to authenticate me, where I was placed on extended holds twice by two additional service reps to have this CONSTANT issue resolved, again

Bank of America Bad customer service

On Tuesday, October 3rd, at 12 noon, I went to my bank at 7800 Sunset Blvd in Hollywood to buy a Canadian money order to send money to family in Canada. The young male teller said the bank doesn’t have that service. So I said I’ll have to mail them a cheque then, and I asked the teller for the latest exchange rate, and he told me I can just google it! I was thinking “are you serious?” I told him that googling will not give the latest rate, I then said that I have to open up the app, then pretend I want to buy foreign money, to get the correct exchange rate. He said ok. So here is a teller won’t offer customer service and expects me, a customer, to find the rate on my own. I’m so angry. He should NOT be working as a teller if he has no interest in helping your customers.

Bank of America Customer service

For the second time BOA placed a fraud alert on my account for a check I wrote for $700 to my son in Dallas, Texas so he could pay the balance of the work done on my truck. NTB is the facility. I had already pd them $1300 but there was a remaining balance that they kindly let me leave until I forwarded the remaining balance to my son. I don't use cell phones or computers. It's too easy for people to cheat you. I made 12 phone calls trying to get this ironed out with customer service. I wasted 4 hours and got so pissed off I lost my temper more than once. I recorded all the calls and have them saved on my phone. I called them from work, my emergency phone# and finally my home phone. As of this morning it still wouldn't let me research my account. This ruined the dinner I had planned for my older son's birthday. There was absolutely no reason for a fraud alert to be issued on my account. This is totally over reaching! I want those women fired!

Desired outcome: Fire them!!!

Bank of America Customer service, discrimination

Everything I've tried cashing my employment checks which I've been receiving for over 5 years. Any other branch I've been to have been cashing it without any issues but every time I'm in the area for work and I need to cash my check, all associates including branch manager have been giving me issues by making excuses and choosing to not cash my checks but if the customer is Hispanic they help them out without any issues but if you're non Hispanic they mistreat you and give attitude. I feel completely disrespected and discriminated. Specifically the branch manager "Samuel Galvez" must pay for his actions.

Desired outcome: I would appreciate for the associates specially for the branch manager to be terminated as a bank employee for discriminating and disrespecting.
