Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I tried to use my card on XX/XX/XXXX in XXXX XXXX for about {$11.00} and Bank of America blocked my card. Unfortunately, being in rural XXXX XXXX, I was not able to immediately call and try to authorize the charge. When I was able to get to a place with cell phone reception, I called Bank of America and they refused to unblock my card unless I came into a financial center. This is not possible as I am in XXXX XXXX and they do not have centers in XXXX XXXX. I am not able to return to the US until XX/XX/XXXX. 

I alerted the agent to this problem and asked to speak to a supervisor and I was refused that request as well. I further explained that I had a balance on the card that needs to be paid, but that I can not do that as long as the card is blocked. The agent provided a phone number to an automated phone payment system, but I am not able to access that either as long as the card is blocked ( redirected back to the fraud center automatically ). A further chat with a new agent further confirmed that I have no way to make a payment on the card currently, but am liable for the payment and will receive fines and fees if I do not pay it.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
I noticed a fraudulent charge on my credit card from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$5000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately contacted Bank of America to report this fraud and cancelled the credit card to ensure there was no more fraudulent charges. I also contacted the XXXX XXXX Sheriff Department and filed a report. 

Bank of America denied this claim for {$5000.00} and then tried to charge me interest for the amount. I reopened the claim again and they denied it without any explanation, I asked for all the documentation to show why they denied it. They responded and said I am not allowed to see the information as it is internal only. 

At this point I asked for a supervisor and had to provide all the information again to them. They reopened the case in XXXX and I haven't got a update since. 

Now being XX/XX/XXXX ( almost 8 months after the fraud ) I called Bank of America for an update : XXXX : Called the same number I have been calling and spoke with a representative. They notified me that I had the wrong department and transferred me. Once getting on the phone with that department they transferred me again. Now talking to the 3rd person they hung up on me. 

XXXX : Called the " new number '' I was provided for the fraud department after 2 minutes of explaining that I needed information on the claim they hunt up on me. 

XXXX : Called the number again and spoke to 4 different people in 4 different departments. After over an hour of trying to get information they hung up on me again without providing any information. 

XXXX : Called the number again and immediately asked for a supervisor. After explaining what was going on he hung up on me without providing any information. 

XXXX : Called the number again and the representative told me I had the wrong department ( been the same phone number everytime I called. Transferred to a different department and immediately asked for a supervisor. I was on hold for 33 minutes and they advised me they couldn't connect me to a supervisor and hung up on me. 

I am at a complete loss and not sure what to do at this point.
