Unreasonable Check Holds / Bad Customer Service
- johnHouTx57 - Tuesday, December 6, 2011 - 7:28 AMI want to share a horrible experience I had with Bank of Internet (BOI). I lost my job and was out of work for a month. I got a new job but I had to wait a month for my first check. I thought it would be a good time to move to an internet only bank and save on fees. Having no money I paid the penalty to withdraw from my 401k to cover my rent at my apartments. I deposited a check from Fidelity on November 29th. I wrote a check to cover my rent on December 3d. On December 6th BOI still had a hold on my check. I contacted them and was told it would not be released until December 9th. This is their policy for check deposits. I called Fidelity and they informed me the check had cleared the bank on their end. Contacted BOI again but still they will not release my funds so my rent check will clear. Now my rent check has bounced, I have no money and the apartments informed me it will cost me 100 dollars late fees to pay on the 9th. So I already paid penalties for withdrawing from my 401k, now late fees with rent all because BOI does not care about people and their hard times, only their policy. The check has cleared the funds are there but BOI won’t give me access to my own money. I do not recommend Bank of the Internet and I give them a ZERO in customer service.

Bank Has Given Good Service
- coolius_y - Saturday, August 28, 2010 - 8:49 PMI have been a customer of BOI for many years. Opened up a CD shortly after they first opened for business, and I have been with them since.
I cannot comment on the checking account service, not having one. But I have had no issues with their customer service with my CDs ( the only type of account I have with them ).

I've Been With Bank Of Internet Since 2003 And The Bank Served Me Well Until Now When I Ran Into A
I've been with Bank of Internet since 2003 and the bank served me well until now when I ran into a situation where I lost my checks. Unlike other banks and credit card companies where they immediately freezed or placed restrictions on my account and issued me a new number without loosing my account history and settings, Bank of Internet's method was to close my account and open a brand new one, which is very painful process with BOI since they take extreme precaution when opening an account. You would think they would make it less painful for me considering I'm a long-time customer and the situation I am in. Furthermore, customer service's attitude was non-caring with no urgency during this traumatic time for me.
