In 2005 I bought a new Dell computer from Costco here in San Jose. I had a Internet account prior to the purchase and decided to sign up with AOL's free trial 60 day promotion. I cancelled the AOL Account three days later after getting my regular internet provider installed on the new computer. I went to Bank of America and opened up a new checking account to keep the AOL and other purchase's seperate fro my regular banking. I kept recieving NTSF notices from B of A for six months in a row until I requested and recieved a paper copy of my checking account. AOL had developed a SECOND AOL account and was charging me full price each month! I notified AOL after numerous tries "32 times" and there responce was "Yes we can see you never used your account after three days but we will only credit you for 2 months only. I took the responce to B of A and the telephone official stated that B@A will credit all NTSF charges to mt checking account, a total including NTSF charges of over $ 562.90 dollars.
Upset with my so called B@A policies I closed my account and low and behold B of A reversed their deision! I recieved two collection notices, one from AOL and one from B of A.in both cases I forwarded a copy of the overbilling by both AOL and NTSF overcharges by B of A. I have tried since to open a new banking account at five different banks and was advised that B of A has filed some type of banking notice that I CANNOT OPEN A BANK ACCOUNT UNTIL 2012! Talk about abusing taxpayers and leveling unreal retalitory measures aginst anyone complaining about B of A business practices!
If it is that easy to do to me @ 68 years old and completely disabled for the past five years, then you know B of A is doing this to allot of other citizens.
