Bank Of America has been targeted so hard that on line banking is 5 days behind.

Be aware that B of A is a good work week behind in transactions of ATM.

[TruthConquers]

I seem to remember that you need to find the county that the Bank Headquaters is in. Then you will see the names of those credit unions. Try looking around, it was not the easiest site to navigate.

Why are you asking?

[texanred]

What’s a good alternative to B of A in California?

Check for local credit unions. They don't have quite the same profit motives as regular banks and most will not be moving to place monthly fees on debit cards. The idea was laughed out of the room at my credit union and I seriously doubt anyone running for board positions will support it.

As a side note - you've already been paying a lot of these for years through the backdoor. I know I've accounted for how much these transactions cost me. Merchant accounts aren't usually allowed to charge extra for using a credit or debit card but I can certainly raise my prices by 5% across the board to account for those costs. However, unlike most merchants I know (other than Specs liquor), I also give a 5% discount for paying with cash. =)

What do you think of people who force a company offline?

I bank with BofA and have for close to thirty years.

At no time has the bank been even one day behind in it’s normal course of business.

Over the last several months there has been a few glitches in the front end interface, but there has always been work-arounds provided. All my electronic payments have been processed normally whether initiated with the bank bill-pay system or payments made online to business concerns directly.

Please do not start or repeat bogus rumors concerning the bank I do business with.

We got notified by snail mail a week ago that they are doing upgrades to online banking and yes it is running slow. They also said there are 2 days it will be completely down.

I check our accounts several times a day and everything seems to be up to date, at least as much as it ever was.

[DoughtyOne]

As I stated in another post here, there has been a hitch in the normal online BofA interface over the last month or so, but there has always neen a work-around provided.

This is merely a web page problem and not a banking services problem.

There are no delays in bank processing and the like.

All deposits and normal transactions have been processed flawlessly in a timely manner.

I made a payment to an account early Sunday morning and they credited it on Saturday’s business day. That can’t happen if the bank is delaying business.

[Fledermaus]

I don’t buy it. I login to my account everyday and have had no problems this week.

And every transaction shows up immediately including the $20 I took out of an ATM (theirs) this afternoon.

[Political Junkie Too]

I would think that the transactions from physical ATM machines is on a different network than home on-line banking.

Is it just the home on-line banking that is clogged up?

Then why doesn’t the spokeman just say so?

From all of the news reports I’ve seen, they decline to comment.

If it were that simple, they would say so. They don’t.

[mnehring]

I am not seeing a problem. I checked my account there and it is up to date, even showing an auto-draft transaction this afternoon.

[DoughtyOne]

Spokes-holes are notorious for not knowing the simplest of information concerning the institutions they work for. When they admit as much, it’s often true. I don’t know what else to tell you. All I know is that my observation of services has revealed the bank to be operating normally.

[TruthConquers]

It is obvious that you are a John and Ken fan, it seems.

Personal observation is valid, fair enough.

I just have this sick feeling in the gut about this whole mess. Pays to keep those questioning minds sharp these days.

[EricT.]

So what? BofA sucks. Worst bank ever. That they are so big only shows how lazy, stupid, or masochistic millions of people really are.

[EricT.]

What’s a good alternative to B of A in California?

Any credit union.

[Publius Valerius]

For those that care about these things, Ally bank is the old GMAC—General Motors. Majority shareholder? Uncle Sam.

[ThomasThomas]

When I see some of these threads it makes me thing, What bank do they work for?

[NoLibZone]

"What do you think of people who force a company offline?"

I think the DOD should use all resources available to hunt them down.

Then if convicted have them taken to GITMO for re adjustment.

[teenyelliott]

What’s a good alternative to B of A in California?

Anything. Your mattress. A jar. A ziploc bag buried underground.

I am puzzled as to why anyone still banks at el Banko of Americo.
