Bank Of America On line Banking Services
Where ever you live you can open a Bank of America On Line Banking account from any home computer.

Bank of America merged with NationsBank in 1997 changing its name from BankAmerica to Bank of America and, at the time of writing, is the largest banking institution by volume. It leads the country in the processing of credit and debit card transactions and in the issuing of such cards along with prepaid cards. This makes Bank of America the largest financial services company which is not included in the Dow Jones Industrials.

The security services of the bank are often reported to be the best in the industry and opening a Bank of American On line Banking account can be done in minutes. If you use direct deposit there is no fee for opening the account. One of the Bank's security precautions is to not have paper account statements mailed to your home. It is a known risk that identity thieves can wait by your mailbox for your bank statements to arrive and then take the information from stolen mail to gain access to the account. As with other On line Banking, Bank of American makes the statements available online which ends the possibility of such theft.

The customer can also pay the bills online and if checks are written, can review them online as well. This makes it easy to do a quick verification of the checks authenticity allowing you to notify the bank immediately if a fraudulent check is spotted. Which is a great improvement on waiting for a stolen check to appear in a monthly statement.
