Edit to add, this is happenig across the nation supposedly not just the east coast.

This has been going on since 10 central time today.
All B of A online banking is down. Only ATMs working. A few branches closed apparently also.

I don't bank with them, but this does not sound good. Several articles online about this referring to this issue in the past tense, as if it is over, but it's not. Online banking still down going into the weekend.

Must watch!

Strangely BofA stock up 3.6% today, even while all online backing down. Odd.

please tell us if you are being affected and in what states.

Now a B of A sell signal triggered? They couldn't figure that out this morning?

Doesn't sound good? Depends on how you look at it.

I never had BA but I did get out of Wells Fargo and moved my money over to Navy Federal Credit Union. By the way you don't have to be military to have an account there.

Off subject, but could be related in some way. February gold delivery is looking like a gold run, yet price is being held down.

Feeling like August 2008, although a stock plunge this next time will include more than just stocks and mortgages, it will be everything,

Actually I'm gonna say it feels like May 2008, thinking we may have a few months to go.

Ok, back on topic.

Hey maybe when its restored ill magically find 1 billion dollars deposited to my account.....That would be sweet!!!

Why people are still using BOA and such crap is beyond my comprehension. Do yourself and everyone else a favor and stop using these "institutions" in favor of local credit unions. Let these companies fail and die already.

7pm --- SW Florida region ... still unavailable.
thanks for sharing this news ... those i've told were not aware either.

i'm wondering if this is technical (Anon) difficulty or a legal (NESARA) one ???

The site is down that tell's people what sites are down???

A hack maybe? (or a *reported* one--soon ?)

Still down.

Whatever the cause, they are not talking about it... which means their working on a story for damage control.

They probably got hacked by Rahm Emanuel for making loans to gun manufacturers.

If there were an alleged hack attack I would imagine "Anonomous" (one of the many) might make a likely target.

But what if BOA themselves denied access to customers money so that they could play it to up the market 3+%, and then somehow cash in, hmmmm...but I guess things of that nature only happen in the movies. Right?

It was down, but it's working for me now (I'm in Texas).

Someone tweeted that you can login from this page: Link

Click on the teeny tiny red Sign In link in the upper right hand corner of the page. It will ask for your site key. Just tested it and it works.

Not sure how people are supposed to know this though. The main login on the home page still says it's unavailable. Methinks someone needs a new PR manager.

working now.

It was doing that to me today too.

I wonder if any other banks are having this problem or if it's exclusive to BOA. Also, why are people still banking with them? Between trying to jack excess fees and suddenly denying customers their own money because they are involved with legal sales in arms and ammunition, I am surprised they have any customers left.

The same thing happened to BBVA Compass Bank today as well. Something is afoot! It is very interesting to say the least. It even effected direct deposits not posting! You know how many people get paid on the 1st of the month? A heck of a lot! I am sure a lot of people were very mad.....

It might be related to this thread about unusually high cash withdrawals:

www.abovetopsecret.com...

Banks are only keeping enough cash on hand to handle their normal ATM business. They don't even have enough cash to handle a 5% increase in cash withdrawals.

Today is the first, many people pay their bills on-line. If the large withdrawals are still happening, banks are going to be n big trouble. I'm guessing they didn't have enough cash to settle and this was a way to slow down the activity.

They WILL NOT call an official bank holiday - this will only cause people to panic and more withdrawals.

These "computer problems" are the ideal way to stop the outflow.

You mean this liar?

What a joke. He got his 15 minutes of fame, He certainly changed his story along the way.

In the world of banking, BofA is not the best pick. However, thousands of good, honest people work for them, so I don't wish their demise like so many people seem to do around here.
