Issue: Struggling to pay your bill — Credit card company won't work with you while you're going through financial hardship
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint about my Bank of America credit card ending in XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I was involved in a XXXX XXXX that required me to be XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This unfortunate event significantly disrupted my life. Thankfully, I survived and am now working hard to get back on my feet. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Bank of America to inquire about my due dates and was informed that I had until XX/XX/XXXX to make a payment. Due to my physical condition and Bank of Americas policy of not accepting cash deposits through third parties, I was unable to send someone to deposit funds into my checking account on my behalf. 

I proceeded to deposit funds this week on Monday and attempted to make a payment through the Bank of America app, only to find that my account had been closed. This was contrary to the information I had been provided earlier. 

I have since paid the overdue balance to bring my account up to date. However, I was informed by Bank of America that they can not do anything to reopen the account, despite the assurance I received on XX/XX/XXXX that I had until XX/XX/XXXX to make the payment. 

I am requesting that my account be reopened and updated accordingly, as I received conflicting information from Bank of America representatives. I believe this situation warrants further investigation and resolution to prevent such issues from occurring in the future. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
