Bank of America Bank account or service department,

Other bank product/service Account opening, closing, or management Tennessee

-/-/-, I tried to open an account with -. I was denied and told to contact - Services for the reason as to why. Upon contacting this company, I was informed that my checking status was in good standing, but I was being flagged because my social security number is being used as a Business Tax ID at Bank Of America. I have contacted Bank of America numerous times, only to be told to go here and there and to do this and that, but they were unwilling to resolve this issue. I have never banked with Bank of America nor do I have or have ever had any type of - account. I was told by Bank of America to go into - of their branches and tell them to be removed from a duplicate - ID. Upon doing so, Bank of America then told me that I needed to contact the IRS about my social. I contacted IRS who told me that my social is not and was not flagged and to contact Bank of America since they are the ones who has my social mistyped as a tax ID. Upon contacting Bank of America again, I was


advised to do. Today, -/-/- I contacted - of the Identiy theft department of Regions who advised me that I needed to contact Bank of America yet again and possibly file an Identity Theft with them since they are the ones who potentially transposed my social security number and used it as a business tax ID. So, i proceeded to call Bank of America yet again after - phone calls total, only to have them type in my social security number yet again and tell me that it is still coming up as a Business Tax ID number with someone else 's name and a different state and told me to contact my bank ( - ) to start identity theft so they can remove the Tax ID from my social. So, After the numerous back and forth efforts I decided to file a complaint because no one is helping me due to something that is to no fault of my own. I have never banked with Bank of America and I have never had any type of business. This is affecting my life because I ca n't conduct my personal affairs for being flagged for something that I have no knowledge of.
