Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

Complaint narrative:
We have a checking account with Bank of America. On XX/XX/year>, we received a call from the Bank of America fraud department stating that they saw suspicious activity of over {$4000.00} payment to a XXXX credit card on our account and they asked what action we wanted to take. I told them to deny the charge that it was not something that my wife or myself has charged. They told me they would call me back that day, and they never did. I called them back the next day to verify that they received the message to block the charge, and they said they couldn't because the account was locked. The person I spoke to said that the account was locked it meant the charge was handled. 

Meanwhile, my other bank that I have an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, also had a suspicious charge that they called me to verify on the same day. When I told them that the charge should be denied, they immediately locked our account and issued us a new account number and debit cards. The charge never went through. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, the {$4000.00} showed as pending in Bank of America and then the charge went through. I immediately called and they told me that they could not escalate because it was considered a Bill-pay and that I was misinformed that they were going to call me back on the XXXX. I submitted a claim and we received a letter in the mail a week later that they would not investigate further because the charge was consistent with previous valid account activity. Though we have do have a XXXX credit card, we have never used Bank of America to pay and the last four digits that show with the charge is not our account number. I filed a 2nd claim on XX/XX/XXXX, and we received the same letter on XX/XX/year>. I called again to submit a 3rd claim. I tried to ask for additional information so we can prove that the activity on our account was not ours, but they refused to provide any additional information. I have now submitted a 3rd claim. On XX/XX/year>, I have also filed a police report with our local police department.
