I have NO sympathy for BofA. I have a charge account thru them, and it took me a few months to realize that by clicking for payment to be made on the "due date" at its site, I was subjecting myself to a $39 late fee ... because, you see, if my "due date" fell on a day the bank was closed, like a Saturday, my payment was late. Seems to me that if their payments had to be made to coincide with bank hours, they could at least set the "due date" on a bank business day. But no, that way they wouldn't collect all those $39 fees.
This is a ridicoulous ruling. If the customer bounced a check, apparently there wasn't any Social Security money in the account.
"A Bank of America spokeswomen Shirley did not immediately return calls seeking comment."
And don't call her, surely!
Idiotic ruling.
Just out of curiosity, do you reside in the US? If so, would you like to say which state?
Actually, they are.
Businesses who insist on remaining in Kalifornia and doing business there get exactly what they deserve.
They won't get any sympathy from me.
BofA is run by a bunch of dishonest corrupt thugs. I suppose Washington Mutual is worse, but BofA sucks.
