i finally dropped.....

Bank of America!!!
I kept dealing with them after the many warnings given on the different forums. I didn't have any problems with them. But when I got married and changed my name a couple of months ago, they dropped my pitiful BoA credit card. It had a limit of $300. Just enough so that I could use for a hotel, rent a car, or plane ticket. When I changed my name, they sent me a letter saying they apologized that they couldn't RE-open my account. Interesting.....as I had just used the card the day before. So....I was upset and posted it here on FV. I just decided that I didn't need their card and it was a favor. Now, there is some crazy fee on my account and no one can explain it. After 15 days, it cleared but it made me have a -14 balance. They eventually claimed there was a hold on my account. OH....did I mention that I had just deposited $60 about 1 hour before this "hold"??
In the meantime, I stopped my direct deposit. The personnel manager said that at least 9 people have come in to stop their direct deposit to BoA.
So.......everything is cleared and BoA sent me apologizing. But it is too late!! Adios!!! I have closed it!!!
Then I read where BoA is going to charge for debit transactions. Go right ahead but without me.
I am with ING direct. I am much happier with them. Also, I have a credit union account!!

Ugh - yeah nothing good comes from BoA. My boyfriend just opened an account (switching from a credit union!!

) I dread the first problem.

I use a local credit union for my EF and Ally for everything else (travel a lot - reimbursed ATM fees are great!)

Good Riddance. I said the same thing as you and told them to get lost.. they bought my mortgage and I am working on my battle plan to get rid of them.

They really are THE worst. My mom has her mortgage with them and all I ever hear is that the right hand has no idea what the left hand is doing - I still need to talk her into trying to get that mortgage moved!!! Thanks for the reminder.

And good work! Dropping them like a hot potato!!! Couldn't be a better way to handle their nonsense.
