Savings account Account opening, closing, or management New York
Hi I have been banking with BankOfAmerica for the last 6 years and recently opened a new savings account last week Saturday over the phone with a banker. The banker requested my debit card number so she could make the initial $25.00 deposit to open my account and the banker debited from my account twice which I have attached proof. I alerted her to the - transactions and was told that it 's not processing on her end but it may show up in about 3 business days so I was told to wait until Wednesday which would of been the third business day until the transaction was processed and if not to call back in, we then went through the online e-banking process and she helped me to set up an online account. Tuesday of the following week I transferred $250.00 to bring my account to a - minimum so the $5.00 monthly fee would be waved, by Wednesday I signed into my other checking account which was used to debit the - charges of $25.00 each and I noticed my account was credited $50.00 back so I called my bank and was told that either BankOfAmerica cancelled, rejected
to see if the money was received and while trying to login I was given an error message and a number to call. I called and reached a very rude and inconsiderate account risk customer representative and was told my account was closed and there is nothing I can do about it. I asked why and was told BOFA had the right to close my account without my permission and I am BANNED from life from ever opening an account with BOFA, it was a business choice and I am welcome to bank with another bank but it 's a business decision that we no longer want you to bank with us. I was appalled, shocked and hurt. I have been banking with you guys for the last 6 years because you guys are the closest branch to where I live. I went to the bank later that day and was told they could do nothing for me and my money would be sent out in a check to my home, at this point I do n't know who to reach at this point and everyone has continuously transferred me to the account risk department to be told the same thing but no one as actually cared or concerned themselves to help me resolve an issue and at this point no one is giving me a chance and I 'm just being kicked out of BankOfAmerica and forced to open up an account with a new bank. I would really appreciate any help please.
