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

Auditing your bank's fee schedule is not glamorous work, but it is one of the highest-ROI hours a small business operator in Queens can spend. This page is the BoA-specific version of that audit.

Fee schedule overview

BoA's main small business fee categories: monthly maintenance ($16/mo Business Advantage Fundamentals, waived with $5,000 avg balance), wire transfers ($30 domestic / $45 international), out-of-network ATMs ($2.50 + third-party fee), overdraft fees (subject to CFPB 2023 enforcement on stacking practices), foreign transactions (~3% on most cards), and per-product minimum balance fees on relationship products. Each is on BoA's published fee disclosure page. The CFPB consumer complaint database has tens of thousands of fee-related complaints filed against Bank of America for additional public-record context.
