Consumer Narrative
On XX/XX/2023, I opened a saving account # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Bank of America XXXX XXXX XXXX CA Branch after I saw its ads of 4.5 % saving interest rate. I was told that as long as I use new money to fund the account, I will get 4.5 % interest rate for 1 year. I transferred $ XXXX from my XXXX XXXX XXXX Performance Savings account with around 4.3 % interest rate to Bank of America saving account on XXXX, XXXX, 2023. To my surprise, I only got close to 0 % interest {$6.00} in XXXX, XXXX. According to my conversation with BOA associate - XXXX today. my account is in the process to be reviewed after 30 days of open date to determine if my account will be qualified to earn promotional rate 4.5 % as promised when I opened the saving account. There is nothing they can do to fix the problem.
