Anyhow early the next morning I looked online to do an account transfer and saw suspicious activity and immediately began calling Bank of America ( BOA ) with the 1st call at -, I will go on to make four more calls to them while desperately trying to find my debit card. As advised by the representative on the phone I go into a BOA branch and show proof of identification. I filed a claim with BOA for the incident and


available balance on your receipt. My account was again credited.. Later I found they denied my claim again stating they did not receive a police report.

BOA pushed the issue of the report thus on -/-/- after I received proof that The - Police department denied my online report # - and gave me a number to contact them. After contacting the number I was informed that I would have to go to the various counties the card was used from - to Wisconsin and informed BOA I did not have the resources to do so. They kept stressing the issue of a police report because they know - Police try to avoid paperwork like the plague.
