Bank of America Website Down: Affects Online Banking

Bank of America website down?

You’re not alone. In fact, people have been having problems with the Bank of America website all day, raising fears Bank of America website down may have been the victim of a cyber attack.

The timing has made the problem even greater, as thousands try to log in to Bank of America website to check their accounts before the end of the month (Monday is Feb. 1) and pay end-of-the-month bills.

Business Insider notes that the company’s Twitter account has downplayed the issue, insisting the site works but is only having problems for some people.

That account, @BofA_Help, has been assuring people via replies that its tech team is hard at work to address the problem.

Some bloggers are already weighing in with their disgust. One blog even claims Bank of America is having an “online PR crisis” by not properly relaying information and informing consumers.

This isn’t the first time Bank of America website has gone down. It happened in September 2008, April 2007, and back in February 2001.
