Many Bank of America customers posted on social media Wednesday that they were experiencing major problems with the digital payment app Zelle.
Individuals took to Twitter to share messages received from Bank of America that claimed they had negative account balances. Others stated they were having difficulty getting through to the bank's customer service department.
Twitter user Jeepeto Cuarenton shared an image indicating his account balance was $-2,060.44.

I’m old but I seem to remember these pieces of green
paper that we used for financial transactions.*******

Naw.....They have change all that and it is now PLASTIC CARDS
The price of convenience is risk. I guess app-happy Americans are going to find out the hard way.
I also use my local credit union. They notify me of any unusual credit card activity.
They stopped payment twice on my hacked credit card number. Apparently G. Washington bought 2 Xboxes at a Best Buy in upstate NY. I didn’t know he was still alive.
The 2nd time a trucker in Little Rock bought 300 gallons of diesel on my card.
My cc was compromised twice after visiting a local restaurant. Told the Mgr what happened and he disavowed any knowledge. I told him I was done eating there.
"You'll get nothing and like it!"
Restaurants are always a pain. A couple of our favorite restaurants (during COVID) switched over to allowing customers to insert/tap/slide their own cards, if they wanted. They have maintained that policy ever since. Inserting a chipped credit card myself is a bit more comforting than having the card be used by the restaurant out of sight.
“local restaurant”
It is likely the manager did not know anything about it—probably an employee stealing the information and selling it.
That is one reason I have never been comfortable using a credit card (or app) at a restaurant.
There are too many poorly paid young employees—odds are too great that they will have the skills and motivation to steal the account information.
Only if they have a corvette parked in or around the bank.
If Bank of America goes down, a Depression panic follows. And your 200K insurance aint worth spit.
Govt goes broke...goodbye guarantee.
the government can print all the money it needs to guarantee bank deposits.
Stop panicing.
A couple of years ago I got an email to sign up for zelle. I looked over the information and was thinking about it. Then I got a second email naming 6 or 7 of my friends who had zelle accounts. I was shocked that they would have that information. Was zelle going through people’s address books? That ended any thought I might have about signing up for zelle.
Anyone who has BofA accounts deserves to be robbed. This bank has been exposed as a criminal enterprise for decades. In fact it was founded as a criminal enterprise.
Also saw reports that Zelle and Wells Fargo are having the same problem. I would be watching any bank associated with Zelle JIC.
Cheked my acct this AM and all is well (knock on wood).
If bank balances are going to $0, anyway, maybe we’d all be better off spending our savings.
Isn’t Zelle czech (no pun intended) owned?
So says the man with eggs at $7 a dozen. Your admission replicates that said by economists of the Weimar Republic.

“problem is fixed”
Only if the money is back in the accounts, also.
That exactly the kind of service you want! :)
