new ransomware behind Indonesias data center attackppIve had BOA for so long and it has been great but now that my income has dropped I am feeling the fees plus there are hardly any branches open Id go with Self or any other bank that doesnt charge fees Be sure to read the small print Its difficult to change banks when you have set up payments and deposits plus it could effect your credit rate I honestly think BOA is going after those with higher balances and is confirming to online banking but its fees havent changed Capital One is now much better than BOA BOA is pricing itself out of many market segments and derogatory articles arent helping its stock price or long fought reputation Welcome to 2024ppSo I also been with BOA and felt totally unappreciated for my 15yrs with them I had someone trick me into believing they were a collection agency aha asked they send the contract in the mail after I get it and call them to say its OK move forward they can start taking 50 a month Well almost 2 months later I never got a contract or anything from them but they made themselves out a check for 100 so I reported it asked to shut down that account and obviously anything that I had paid prior to this check being made is me so I thought that made sense Well they actually returned a auto pay to my credit card with them made 2 weeks prior then get this canceled my credit card for that reason which was ridiculous if you ask me They knew that was autopay to them every month and then her the other reason because I used my credit card too much I did it because all my auto pay bills werent being paid while I waited for them to set up a new checking account and then had to call to get my money released from the hacked account to the new one I paid the full amount down that u charged all but 100 They ruined my credit with their claims of over use and returned payment and get this they turned the card back on without sending any apology or anything Im looking for a new bank ATM I was not aware this was one of the 2 banks foreclosing on families during that depressionrecession we had Wells Fargo was the other evil bank They were who I left to go to BOA Crazy how after showing I can manage my money for 15yrs they attack me because I was attackedppNot a member yet Register NowppHackers leak 39000 printathome Ticketmaster tickets for 154 eventsppMicrosoft July 2024
