Bank of America Mortgage

Bank of America traces its roots all the way back to the Bank of Massachusetts, founded in 1784, but the real story of Bank of America begins in San Francisco shortly after the 1906 earthquake.  Bank of Italy, owned and founded by Amadeo Giannini, became the primary banking institution of the area.  In the 1920’s it merged with another California bank,  Los Angeles-based Bank of America. Giannini was an innovative character and continually modernized banking practices.  Bank of America merged, acquired and expanded its way across the nation and now has 5,800 locations covering some 30 states and the District of Columbia.  Bank of America is the second largest bank in the US by assets (behind Citigroup).

In early 2006 Bank of America and MBNA merged, and MBNA is now part of Bank of America.  This merger should afford the customers of both companies greater financial services and solutions.  While not many changes will affect customers immediately, one positive change is that MBNA customers will now have access to Bank of America’s extensive ATM network without being charged a fee.

Things are not all rosy for Bank of America, however.  In 2004, a California jury decided that Bank of America had illegally raided the Social Security benefits of a million customers.  The jury awarded damages that could exceed $1 billion.  Bank Of America had been accused of withholding customers' direct deposit social security benefit payments in cases where a debt is owed to the bank (e.g.: overdrawn account, monthly service fees, etc.); this is in direct violation of California state law. The suit claims that BofA knew about the law and concealed the facts of this law from their customers.  BofA counters that it only followed standard industry practice of using monthly preauthorized direct deposits to cover overdrafts and the like.
