BofA 3% ATM fee

[Talleyho69]

As most of you know by now, Bank of America is, as of November 8, charging a 3% fee for ATM use at Santander. Here is a link to an on line petition protesting it.

Hope it works for you! Our neighbors here had the same deal, but have been told that it's doesn't apply to the 3% Foreign Exchange Fee. However, many of us have found that if you complain loudly and bitterly enough on the phone, or on line chat, your first fee will be refunded.

Just had a run in with BOA over checking account fees. Because my coach is financed with them I'm not supposed to pay any fees. Long story short, threatened to close all accounts with them and refi the coach elsewhere. Problem solved-no fees-ever! Printed a copy of their reply for future reference.

So far, it looks like only Capital 360 has no fee ATM's in Mexico. However.....at the moment they are having issues, so their network is down. Other than that, it still looks like the 3% BofA is charging is the lowest fee, and that's not good.

The best way to protest is to find another bank!

Or don't use that particular ATM, If enough people stop using it, the maintenance costs will soon exceed the revenue.

There is no end to what BOA will try.
