Bank Of America
Fee Charged to Non Customer to Cash Check Drawn on Bank

Business & Finance

Wow! What an ordeal!!! I have to warn "everyone" out there about this Bank of America. I've heard a lot of bad things about them but now I actually experienced how criminal they really are with people.

I received a local check through the mail that was from a small job I did and figured I would walk into Bank of America to cash it because I wanted the cash and it was a small amount of money and drawn on "their bank".

So they wanted 2 forms of ID which is normal... Along with my finger-print. I gave them my driver's license and credit card which was a Wells Fargo Credit Card. They saw that I bank with them from the debit card I had also. The first thing I was told to do was to open a BofA account by the manager of the bank in which the bank teller called over. (I did not know that they were this desperate for customers), but now I know why.

After... And only after I did everything they requested, they said that I would have to be charged $5.00 for this check, which was $40.00. I could not believe this because they made me go through this whole thing and then said that because I'm not a customer (which I initially told them... Which is why they wanted my ID, etc), they sprung this fee thing on me.
I think I'll stay with Wells Fargo thank you!

I did not know that this bank is a check cashing for fee place. I'm thoroughly disgusted!!!
