This bank is the worst bank to do anything with. When a bank charges 35.00 late fee and a 15.00 fee for paying your bill on the phone. Time to get out. That is why the smart people have not done anything with this bank. This is what payday loans do to people. Listen to Clark Howard about this Bank. Have got out of this bank in the early 2000"s

I agree with grayed..on BAC, & many other companies. They're unaware of what customer service is. The charges & inability to get to your lock box (except at specified times) are terrible. Logic would tell you that being good at CS would bring you more customers..but their infintile minds can't fathom it. I wish more papers & magazines would comment about it. And bring all of it back to the U.S.
