Bank's Right to Change Fees with Notice

Medium severity
Share 𝕏 Share in Share 🔒 PDF

What it is

Bank of America can change the fees it charges you at any time, as long as it gives you advance notice; if you keep using your account after the changes take effect, that counts as agreeing to the new terms.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Consumers may face higher fees without any active agreement on their part, as the clause deems continued account use as acceptance; consumers who do not monitor their account communications may unknowingly consent to fee increases.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Close Your Account
    Within 30 days
    If you receive a fee change notice and do not agree with the new terms, you must contact Bank of America at 800-432-1000 before the effective date of the change to close your account or switch to a different account type before the new fees take effect.

Why it matters (compliance & risk perspective)

This clause means your banking costs can increase at any time with only the legally required minimum notice, and simply continuing to use your account — even if you never read the notice — is treated as acceptance of higher fees.

View original clause language
We may change, add, or delete fees or other terms of your deposit account at any time. We will give you advance notice of any change as required by applicable law. Your continued use of your account after the effective date of the change constitutes your acceptance of the change.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Fee change notice requirements are governed by Regulation DD (12 C.F.R. § 1030.5), which requires 30 days advance notice before implementing changes that adversely affect consumers, and Regulation E (12 C.F.R. § 1005.8) for changes to terms of electronic fund transfer services. CFPB UDAAP authority applies if the notice method or timing is inadequate or misleading.
