Consumer Narrative
On XX/XX/24, I got the message via email from Bank of America that I received a wire. According to the exchange rate on XX/XX/24 of XXXX, when the wire was processed, the amount I received {$16000.00}. should have been {$17000.00}, a difference of {$510.00}. On XX/XX/24, I contacted the lawyer of my father 's estate in XXXX to confirm the amount of DKK that was sent directly to my Bank of America checking account, as there was an apx XXXX difference according to rate exchange on XX/XX/24, when the wire was processed. The response was XXXX was the amount sent, not XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/24, I went to Bank of America on XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX and soke to the manager, named XXXX. He kept insisting that the difference on $ XXXX the rate exchange difference. But actually, the rate exchange on XX/XX/24 was XXXX and the exchange rate on XX/XX/24 was XXXX. XXXX said he would look into this and I should come back XX/XX/24 at XXXX. Unfortunately, I had an appointment I could not reschedule. Later, I did drop off a Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Multipliers for the week ending in XX/XX/24 issued by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection for XXXX review. Also, on XX/XX/24, I spoke to Bank of Americas Wire Department and was told they had no information to give me about the transfer after 46 minutes and being put on hold, I was simply disconnected. I have documentation from the lawyer with the XXXX XXXX Banks statement. This is a problem with Bank of America, and I am unable to get any help from them. This is inexcusable as someone should have knowledge of where this {$510.00} is but no one seems to know or want to look into the matter.
