Bank of America online services down for thousands of people

DETROIT – Thousands and thousands of Bank of America customers have reported having trouble accessing their bank accounts Wednesday, Oct. 2.

According to DownDetector, more than 20,000 people reported outages shortly after noon.

When I checked my Bank of America app on my phone, I received an alert that said “Some accounts and/or balances are temporarily unavailable.”

My checking account balance was presented as “--” but the good news is they do have access to exactly how much credit card debt I have with them, so that’s good. Glad that still exists.

If you tap the “--” balance, details on the account -- including the actual balance -- can be seen.

It’s unknown when services will return to normal.
