Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Closing your account — Can't close your account
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I opened an account XX/XX/2023, before I even had a chance to use my credit card which I was approved for, my account was locked because of " suspicious activity ''. I've attempted to call to resolve the problem, but been told I need to step in a branch to show ID and I can't simply email/mail/send copies through secure messaging. 

Unfortunately I left for international travel before I found out this information won't be back for several months. 

When I attempt to call any number of Bank of America, I get redirected to the fraud department which won't unblock the account, but say I can close it but only to give me a number that redirects back to them and not Bank of American customer services.

I would like to use the credit card of course, but Bank of America is being unreasonable with its fraud detection and thus not allowing me to use the card. At the same time, the same department seems to be blocking my ability to close the account. 

I am unable to take any action with the bank or talk to a reasonable person or find a solution to the problem thus having to reach out via CFPB about the bank 's broken process.
