On October 2, 2024, customers at Bank of America reported having issues accessing their bank accounts. Others reported having account balances currently showing $0.

Per the tracking website Downdetector, the outage kicked off around  12:30 p.m. E.T. on October 2.

An hour later, over 20,000 user complaints were submitted through the website. Jack Phillips of The Epoch Times reported multiple cases of BOA members posting screenshots of account balances at $0 across social media platforms.

Even an Epoch Times staff member reported not being able to log in to their BOA account. Several users across social media platforms revealed that BOA had not notified them about the issue.
