Bank Of America rep Justin  ripped off by telling they have a FREE credit card swipe  only 2.70% then hit you for dozens of hidden fees and early termination fee of $500.00 in case you figure out what they are up to. Here is 1 list for the month and  then they also have a pending list same month. Was told only 2.70% per swipe and no termination fee when I emailed Justin he stated different percent at different times plus bank fees and yes a $500.00 termination fee. WHAT A RIP OFF

Merchant will hold you for 48 months

AUTHOR: Anonymous - ()

POSTED: Tuesday, December 10, 2013

This is an excellent report merchant services will send you back and forth to first data and first data will charge any where from $500-$1000 for breaking a contract. Bank of America will never tell you about the third party until you start using their equipment. They will charge you close $70 for the lease and the line. Compared to paypal which charges only $30 for both credit cards and your website and you do get your money same day. Bank of America holds your money for 24 hours to make profit of it before releasing your money. They claim the lease cannot be broken even when you pay them the penality this do not sound right.

If you are a big company then go to bank of america but for small business I will say shop around because bank of america and the big names do not want to see small businesses grow, they will always slap you with charges that is how they make money. Watch those contracts and take pictures of the ones you sign plus copies and record everything the sales person tells you because they will change their words to favor them. Bank of America is just there to make profits and not to help the customer build a good business, America use to be the country for small business now it is about the big guys. Small businesses are going down whiles Mr. Big or Mr. Corporate is raising. For your petty investments do your research because bank of america will lash you with fees and fees, have every agreement in writing with them because they will always change their story to suit them, they are in to make big bucks and that is all they think about bonuses not the survival of your business.
