I had an Advantage Account with Bank of America for over 5 years with no problem. Then earlier this year I had numerous problems, which they attributed to computer glitches. Overall the glitches cost me hundreds of dollars. I have closed all my accounts and moved to a community bank.

The Advantage Account through Bank of America is the best way to have access to a number of avenues to channel your money. The ease of use of bankofamerica.com is an added bonus as it is the best banking website that I have used. I would recommend this account to anyone that wants a number of financial options conveniently available in one spot.
