TX BoA minimum-balance maintenance structure (Mesquite) — sourced 2026

By Pablo Diaz · I left BoA after years as a customer. Read the full story →

Bank of America fees in Mesquite, TX run on a tier system: most fees waive if you keep enough average balance or hit qualifying activity. The trick is knowing which thresholds apply to which product, and which fees the CFPB has flagged in public enforcement. Both below.

Minimum-balance maintenance structure

Beyond the $16/mo Business Advantage Fundamentals, Bank of America runs higher-tier products with their own minimum-balance maintenance structures. Business Advantage Relationship Banking is roughly $29.95/mo, waived with a $15,000 combined balance. For a scaling Mesquite business hitting those balance thresholds, the fee waives. For a smaller business, the upgrade adds cost without proportionate value. The competitor structures (RHO $0 platform fee on operating accounts, Bluevine $0 standard) are the baseline against which BoA's tiered structure competes.
