The customer service is almost non exsistent
I have an HSA with BOA. The customer service is almost non exsistent. I have been trying for 2 days to speak to someone as it appears I am locked out of my account. I want to deposit money in and can not get in to do so. There is no e-mail contact and I have been on hold for at least an hour at a time trying to get through before I don't have the time anymore.

Home Affordable Modification Program
In Nov of 2009, I started the Home Affordable Modification trial period and was told by a BAC rep "Do not make the November mortgage payment and in 3 months I would get a packet in the mail." During the next three months I called in from time to time to check on the status and to see if anything else was needed on my behalf and was given the same answer every time 'WAIT FOR THE PACKET IN THE MAIL." I should have received my packet in January and I did not. I called to see what was going on and still could not get any pertinent information, but yet again, "wait for the packet in the mail." I did not receive this packet until about March 13th 2010 requesting needed information that also stated I return the packet by Nov. 1, 2009. Based on BAC files and dates given in letters, I was late before I even received any notice. I called to find out about the date discrepancy and was told it was ok. I then submitted the requested information. Once again waiting and being told to wait for packet in mail. Now it's May 1, 2010 and I get another letter asking for additional information and telling me I have till May 30th 2010 to respond. Ok, now I finally got a time line that is correct and thought things were on the right track...NO. After looking into what was requested of me and determining none of it applied to me, I then called on May 10, 2010 to find out what I was supposed to do and was told to fax or Fed-ex letter stating that none of what was requested pertained to me and the supporting facts. When I get home that night I find a new package, mind you only 8 days after I received the last additional request that was due by May 30th, telling me that do to not providing BAC with the documents requested my request was incomplete. Are you kidding me, I have gone out of my way to ensure BAC had everything they needed in a timely fashion. Yet BAC can not get there dates correct and its apparently my fault! I faxed the Letter the next day (5/11/10) also asking that I be contacted by someone who knows whats going on and actually has a clue! It is now May 17th 2010 and I have yet to get any answers as to what is going on and still no phone call. BAC is setting me up for failure and I am not going to stand here and let it continue!

manulating deposits and posting
I understand ifI am over on my account then I have to pay the fee.

BUT why do they have to hold my deposit which more than covers my purchases so that i get overdraft fees, My deposits went in first.
They also move your largest purchase even if it was you most recent to the back of the line so that all the other posting bounce as well.

I am a mother with 2 jobs and 2 girls to support and I have just got assessed a bunch of charges so basically my pay from my second job is gone.

Please tell me where to get help. Again I understand one if the recent purchase is over but to move everything around is really unfair.

Thanks you

Overdraft Fees
So I have overdraft protection set up such that if I overdraft on my checking account it automatically takes money from my BOA credit card.

When an overdraft occurs, not only do they take service charges on both the checking account and the credit card account, take interest on the amount transferred from the credit card as a cash advance, but get this, the service charge on the card is NOT flat, it's 3 or 4% (the account person Marcus and the supervisor Shaunda couldn't seem to be consistent on the issue). What a serious rip off.

I'll be seriously considering moving all my business to another bank.

Short sale incompetence
I took us almost a year from time of listing our old home last year in May 2009 to go to settlement. We found our dream house in January 2010 and then found out it was a short sale (I wanted no parts of a SS!). However... it really is our DREAM house so we made an offer and signed contract of sale 1/22/2010 putting $10, 000 into escrow. We know the market very well and offered a very fair price... not a lowball offer... and it was based on local comps. GMAC was the first mortgage holder. They agreed to the sale right away. Turns out that the second mortgage holder was Bank of America...you can guess the rest. Like Whitney, we have been in limbo the past 4 months. We went ahead and closed on our old home 3/31/10 and moved into "corporate housing" locally. Corporate housing is where they charge you double for a month-to-month lease. We did this for several reasons: 1) allow the sale to go through on our old house, and 2) have a place to stay while BOA goes through their dance. We found out today that they want to close on 7/8/10...one week after the $6500 tax credit expires! So far, we are on the hook for $3000 for 3/4 pt to extend our mortgage rate lock (5.125%) ANOTHER 30 days, $3500 in storage carrying costs for our worldly goods, $1500 for the "extra" move (because we will have to move twice), will lose out on our deductions at next year's tax season since we're not paying mortgage interest for past few months, not to mention the pain of living in a tiny apartment while waiting for our new digs which will be an amazing 4 times the size. We're living in limbo and ask ourselves everyday why BOA has to treat nice normal buyers, who are paying fair market price in our area for this house, with such indifference. We are not the Seller. We did not make this frivolous loan of $150, 000 (second mortgage) on top of a massive first mortgage (yes, the internet has amazing info available if you dig a little!) to someone who was overextended. The Seller is a nice man caught in a bind, and we are the solution for him. At this point, we are waiting to hear back from the Listing Agent if BOA will budge on settlement date. The house does need some work and the $6500 would really come in handy for the repairs.

CHECK YOUR ACCOUNTS
I have a mortgage with Bank of America. I originally purchased my home with my bf. We split, and I did a qualified assumption, releasing him of all liability, and re-closed on my home. Three years later, Bank of America reverted my mortgage back to it's original state, with my ex boyfriend on it! They have no explanation and their customer service was horredous. I am suing them, as I dont have a accurate account or mortgage right now.
Check your mortgage. I would not even of known this if I didnt go online and try to pay my mortgage. I found I was locked out because it was under my ex's name and identity.
Bank of America needs to get shut down!

Home Modification Loan Program
Hi- We're like every working family in America trying to acquire Home Modification Loan from Bank of America. How many of you have tried to get your home loan modified only to be taken for a "ride" through different departments? We have been trying to get this done over the past 14 months only to be given the same excuses over and over again. As well, you're not even talking to someone from America. What the hell is wrong with Bank of America? I am sure other banking institutions and lending institutions from around the country are doing the same thing to innocent, hard working, honest Americans who just want to make sure they take advantage of "All programs" afforded to them. Is that too much to ask for? Tell me if this is something that all of you have gone through:

Filled out paperwork 3 times faxed over a copy and sent over 2 hard copies just to be told that particular department doesn't have your paperwork?
Your given a packet that tells you to return the signed copies and an answer will come in 10 business days, but it has been 3 months waiting for an answer!!!
Where and When does the american people have the right to say to big name corporation, enough already and get your "S" together. We have done everything that Bank of America has asked us to do, but no answers to our home modification loan has come. What can be done?? Any answers appreciated.

Mortgage escrow
For the third time, Bank of America has "forgotten" to pay the real estate taxes and insurance on a mortgage that they service and for which they have a hefty escrow balance. What happens is that
(1) we receive the notice that our insurance is expiring and/or our real estate taxes are in default, (2) we have to call Bank of America and suffer through endless "push button " (for which escrow issues is not an option) and bad music, to inform them that they forgot to pay. In two of the cases, we had to FAX the bills to them, and in the most recent case (after an hour on the phone) they said that they will straighten it out without our faxing things in (we'll wait and see). Each time, they blame the problem on the County tax office and the insurance company, but this never happened with the same parties on our previous loan with BofA. The County states that BofA has not done what they need to do as a loan servicor with an escrow obligation.

We are resigned to the fact that they have a glitch in their system and cannot handle the escrow payments. I am looking forward to paying off the loan so that we can make these payments directly.

In our last call, the customer service agent mentioned that they had merged servicing systems with Countrywide and that this may have caused the confusion. The timing of our difficulties matches the Countrywide merger. While I can understand the confusion, if you have a business system with a terrible glitch and you fail to correct it, it is bad business. Once, I can understand. Twice, I wonder why they don't fix things. Three times? Bad business.

While I have had BofA mortgages for over 30 years, if I need another mortgage I will look elsewhere.
