Bank Of America
$6 Fee to Cash Paycheck Drawn on Bank and No Receipt Given

Business & Finance

Can someone with some knowledge of the law explain to me how Bank of America can refuse to cash a paycheck drawn on them unless you pay them $6? It is your money right? They do this to coerce you into opening up an account with them. How is this different from extortion? They also refused to give me a receipt for the $6. Is it legal to refuse to give someone a receipt for a purchase or so called service? I was thinking they refused to give me a receipt because they know what they are doing is absolutely illegal.

I know that this is so very minor compared to how they steal money every day from thousands and thousands of people but think about how large of a company they are, $6 from every one that cashes a "BANK OF AMERICA" check there. How much money is stolen from the American public every day? 1 million dollars, 2 million, from just one of many of their illegal scams? It's a shame our politicians and lawmakers do nothing to protect us from this.
