Bank Card Locked Before Travel With No Advance Notice
Banks proactively lock debit/credit cards ahead of stated expiration dates to issue replacements, without notifying customers or ensuring the new card arrives before time-sensitive trips. Customers discover the lock at the worst possible moment with no human support reachable. The gap between card cancellation and new card delivery creates a window of financial inaccessibility.

Bank of America customer service has 1-3 hour wait times with incapable agents
Bank of America customers routinely wait 1-3 hours to reach a customer service agent, who then lacks the knowledge or authority to resolve the issue.
