Bank of America is now freezing customer accounts according to the bank’s latest scandal and user reports.
A dad’s Bank of America account has suddenly closed overnight – leaving him broke and worried about feeding his family, reports The-Sun.
“They shut down my account without any notice or explanation… this is actually relatively common,” warned the shocked customer.
Elad Nehorai spent hours trying to access his life savings at a Bank of America branch in Los Angeles, reported local CBS affiliate KCAL News.
He complained about his treatment on X, formerly Twitter, saying: “I am with my wife & daughter in a @BankofAmerica office.
“They shut down my account with any notice or explanation, and we won’t be able to feed our family or pay medical expenses.
“We are staying here until it’s fixed. So far they have refused to even explain why they did this.”
His worrying post prompted a number of people to offer help in July.
One user said: “I sympathize with you Elad, BoA did this to my mother last year and it took us forever to get it worked out.
“Please let us know if we need to start up a fund drive for your family to tide you over until it gets resolved.”
Another user said: “I’m horrified that this is legal and apparently we have no recourse, even for answers.
“I am so naive, I didn’t think anything like this could happen here. Scary and frustrating.”
When the bank “heard CBS wanted to cover it [the story], the tone instantly shifted… the bank manager removed the hold on our account and transferred [his money] to another account.
“So, we have our money and can feed our family. That’s thanks to all of you,” Elad stated on X.
