Thumbs up for Trevor Brooks, Senior BOA banker at the Cabot St., Beverly office. Trevor provided…read morethat much needed customer support and hand holding while I was stressed from the BOA Legal department which in my opinion improperly and perhaps illegally (unauthorized) froze one of my (17 yr old) checking accounts mid-July which was used to auto pay. The aforementioned account was an ordinary checking account, not a conservatorship account. I take copious notes, constructed a detailed documented timeline of this four week issue and was prepared to escalate the problem resolution as far as necessary. Although legal provided nothing in writing, my understanding is they wanted me to ask the court to change one word of the court Co-Conservator document from "And"to "or". Had not realized the account was frozen until notified of check which bounced and rejected auto pay both resulted in $$ penalties, one waived but the other cost me $100 (not happy). Only after Trevor escalated situation to his management, and I threatened to complain and escalate to both BOA management as well as four other avenues of escalation did the problem get resolved last Friday. Trevor called me late Friday and was even willing to keep the office open later if necessary in order that the account got closed and funds transferred. If not for Trevor, I would have transferred my four accounts (1 Trust, 1 Conservatorship, 2 ordinary checking) plus multiple CDs to Chase. As far as I'm concerned BOA owes me $100 and BOA Legal owes me an apology for all the unnecessary stress. Thank you again, Trevor.

What an odd experience…read more We went in on a Saturday afternoon after having lunch in the area, right before closing time. We aren't in Salem often but we had some money building up that needed depositing and didn't want to carry around anymore. The whole experience at the counter was strange from the get-go. I already feel weird ever dealing in cash to begin with but I felt like a downright criminal the way the teller was talking to us. And I say "us" as husband and wife, not pimp and prostitute. She didn't understand at first what account it was to go in and I reiterated which one since I knew she misheard my wife. That's when it got weird because apparently I shouldn't be talking for her, even though like three out of seven accounts with them are joint and I've had some open for almost two decades. I then asked a question about about a recent deposit that was made by the bank for using a debit card (which I didn't know at the time) and the teller couldn't answer us and shrugged it off. Luckily, a manager overheard and knew exactly what I was asking, so I thank her for that. At the end, we were rudely asked, "is that all you need?" like she was trying to push us out to close faster. We stood there dumbfounded because we weren't sure if everything was completed with the transaction or not. I jetted out of there and hope to never return, our nearby Salem Five is 100x friendlier.

I asked to go paperless on statements - yet 3 years later and repeated phone calls to ask that i receive no more statements to my address i continue to receive them. 2. When my account was compromised my card was shut down, now this is good but would have been better if they called me to let me know instead of hanging me out to dry. 3. From point 2, money was stolen from my account, I now live many miles from the bank and was told to get my money back i would have to appear in person, so basically they let someone steal my money and did nothing to replace it and keep me happy. 4. Their website for looking at accounts online is a joke. Its so damn secure that even i can barely get into it and get locked out at random times for no good reason. And the service they have to get back into the account is a joke, sometimes not available, should be 24/7 If you have money that you care about, do yourself a favor and take it somewhere professional.
