The transaction for my rent payment of $1600 was initiated on June 5th. On June 6th, the payment was processing with a ******* balance. I added via a cash deposit $300 to my account to cover the deficit. On June 9th, I noticed a charge of $59.99 showed up as a recurring payment, which I was unaware of as my daughter had subscribed to ******* tv via my phone. Also on June 9th, the $1600 showed as posted (screenshot provided) and the ******* payment processing with -60 in the account. After getting an email about insufficient funds around 2pm on June 9th, I called the bank to see if it was a mixup as I was showing the payment had posted and asked for an explanation. The associate assured me that the payment had posted and the email was automated and was a delayed email as I had put the money in the account to clear the deficit. She told me the after clarifying it was my rent payment, that it would not be returned and even stated she was making notes to my account on what was discussed. I went to the. *** ATM to put the $60 in my account to cover the overdraft caused by the ******* payment and noticed that I had a pending credit for $1500 in my account. I called the bank back to find out what was going on and explained what I was told earlier. The associate told me ******* processed first (Even thought it is still pending with the merchant) and my rent check was returned. I asked to speak to a supervisor who told me the same thing. I told her what another bank of america associate had told me and asked if I could have a reversal of charges due to that. She told me she could not and would write up the associate. My ask is that I recoup all charges/fees due to my rent payment being late due to what I was assured by a bank of america representative. I feel it was within reason to reverse the pending credit and they were not willing to offer any options towards a resolution for a long term customer.Business Response

For a year and a half I have been trying to get this stupid bank to remove my address from their mailing list. They are sending mail to a company called ********************* at my address. I have called/emailed them multiple times and even gone to a brick and ****** to get it resolved. The last time I called I spoke to someone called ******** ***** who had enough nerve to tell me that there was no such company affiliated with ***. I have the letter right in front of me with their logo. She finally told me that she would contact tech and one other department and have them along with her get back to me to resolve it. That was almost 2 weeks ago and she never did show me the courtesy of a response. I was told to open the letter and see that there is a past due balance$759.32. This ******** person also asked for the last 4 numbers on the business account with is 1506. I don't know why they can't get it thru their heads that the person that lived here no longer does and hasn't since Nov 2023. I have NO idea where he moved to and actually gave them the name of the previous owner. **** ******. He lived here with a wife ******** and 3 adult kids. I don't know who there is not capable of following through with this. Are they that desperate to harass me and not go after the perpetrator? GO AFTER THEM AND LEAVE ME ALONE. The address that this is being sent to is:*************************************************************************************************************Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:
The person that I spoke with said he would look into the situation but never gave me a definitive answer. He did give me his name and a number to contact him which I did after our call telling him that BOA was sending the letters to the wrong address. I had to leave it on his voice mail because he did not answer the call. I told him to go online and pull up ******************** in ******************** ***** and it would show their name adddress and phone number and would see that their address is ******************************* ************************* and not mine which is ******************************* *************************. Problem is he never even showed me the courtesy to respond back to let me know if he looked into it. Today I got another letter for Topsign Flowers sent to me so obviously the situation has not been corrected. Not sure exactly who there can not look up the information and CORRECT THEIR ADDRESS ERROR.Initial Complaint

I am rejecting this response because:
I have submitted another complaint for a lawsuit. And for the reason why Im denying it is because since day one I was with Bank of America there was always a problem and to top it off when the employee when I had called in to make a complaint, why am I being redirected every time I call or dial any number with Bank of America get directed to the fraud department And that was my complaint when the employee said I see why youre getting redirected to the fraud department because youre you have a lot of duplicate payments and he said he was gonna do a claim and give me a credit so I thought maybe maybe they see something I dont see on my end for security reasons And when I got the letter of the dispute that the employee was doing I called the Bank of America to tell them no this is not fraud. Its like the employee just picked up random charges just to make a dispute, but for my understanding, he was making a dispute for the double payments but no, he made a dispute for fraud and those transactions that he picked, those were not fraud. Those were legit those transactions I did do so that made me become a negative over $1000 in my account and Ive been going through stress every day since day, one with Bank of America my first day experience with them I couldnt even use my card. Any swipe They did she did call me and tell me about where the gentleman did tell me that that he was gonna give me the debit card overnight he didnt, but she did not say anything about About the how he handled the claim that he said he put in she didnt say nothing about that so if you have any questions, give me a call thank you ***** *****Initial Complaint

On May 31st my daughter was married and received money as gifts The money was deposited and taken in the atm. After depositing all their money including checks and cash the machine said error and no money has appeared in her account. She has been calling the bank for several days and today was told she had to wait until June 16th. This is devastating to newlyweds with bills. They took the money and should quickly return it. If they dont get their money ASAP I will go viral with my complaint.Business Response

To avoid late penalties on my auto loan account through **********************, I placed the account on an auto draft while on the phone with a customer service agent. This agent typed in the amount and said it would auto draft until the loan is paid off. It was drawing out of my account so I did not question anything. I then got a statement saying that I owed $83 back pay and late fees. I contacted the bank and was transferred to a manager who was beyond rude. He stated several times that I was cutting him off and to let him know when he had permission to speak. ***** ****** is an embarrassment to the business. I am seeking to refinance through another bank because of how he treated me on the phone today. We will not be doing business with Bank of America nor will I encourage others to bank with them.Business Response
