Banking with Bank of America in Rosenberg, TX — rewards program

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

As a small business owner in TX, my experience as a Bank of America customer reached the point where I personally decided to leave. This is one customer’s opinion-framed account, written for other Rosenberg customers who may be trying to make the same decision.

What I observed (rewards program)

This is the section that moved my BoA experience from frustration to genuinely suspicious. In my experience, rewards I expected did not credit to my account. I set up auto-redeem AND manually requested redemptions on multiple occasions. Neither path produced a deposit I could see. I contacted support, followed every step, and from my perspective, nothing reached my account.

My full account — written exactly as I would describe it to a friend — is at /my-banking-story.
