I can afford the $5 extra. But on principal alone, I will NOT play the fool for these people. I am a constitutionalist and believe in the free market with very little government intervention. The market will work these tings out, and BOA will surely pay for this mistake. If they wish to keep paying big bonuses over helping the little man (which they have every right to as a corporation), then they will pay a price for showing what matters most to them. They have a right to lose customers, if that's what they want to do! I will definitely be one of them unless they change their minds.

I have only had bank of America for 3 months and I have to say this is the worst bank by far I have ever been with. First off they hold transactions for days at a time and pull it out when it's convienient for them which is very unprofessional and very inconvienient. Second I just pcs'd ( moved) to Hawaii and there is no bank of America here at all. I have switched to USAA savings and it is the best thing I have done for my financial stability bc bank of America sucks and should not be in business anymore. Very poor service very poor standards and not a good financial institution to bank with

I will find a bank who wants my business with out punishing me for buying groceries, gas. power, medicine etc. our banks started this cashless society so they could prey on us? That should be illegal! If i cna not find a bank that will no penalize me for paying for things we must have because i dont have 5 figures in thier bank then I will open the cheapest account I can find for check cashing and start paying cash AGAIN FOR EVERYTHING! I will leave .01 cents (or the bare minimum) in THAT ACCOUNT to keep it open at all times. There are places to keep your money besides BIG BANKS. Wake up BOA!

I'm going to start switching my accounts now before next year. I am a business customer and every few months they change the rule. They should not get away with this, I hope everybody close there account. If for one week every customer closed there account, I think they would think again before they make such a crazy announcement.

B of A has finally pushed me out. They are dunning those of us who have the least amount of money so that their executives can still have those ridiculously high bonuses. Money doesn't grow on trees and I shouldn't have to bail them out (again!) because of their greed and incompetence.
I am on an extremely limited income and yes, five dollars will make a difference. I can have my SSI deposited to MoneyTree , remove it for free and pay everything in cash, at least until they make that illegal. I don't want B of A to have my money for a second, since they can make interest on it and give me nothing but a hassle when I want or need to spend my money on important things such as utilities and rent. Every time I think they can't go lower, they manage to find a new ditch.
