BoA fee schedules in Austin look like everyone else's at first read. The differences appear in (1) waiver thresholds, (2) overdraft handling history, (3) wire and ATM markups. Below: each category with the sources Google can verify.

Out-of-network ATM fees

Bank of America's out-of-network ATM fee structure: $2.50 per withdrawal at non-BoA ATMs, plus the third-party ATM operator fee (typically $2.50–$5). Total cost per out-of-network withdrawal: $5–$7.50. In Austin, TX, BoA's branch network coverage is generally good in major metros and thinner in secondary areas. If your business needs frequent cash deposits or withdrawals outside BoA's footprint, this fee category compounds.
