Bank of America Will Raise Fee on Credit-Card Balance Transfers

15.04.09

By David Mildenberg

April 15 (Bloomberg) -- Bank of America Corp., the lender that canceled an increase in overdraft charges amid stepped-up scrutiny of banking practices, will boost fees on transfers of credit-card balances from competing banks.

The fees will rise to 4 percent of the sums transferred from 3 percent on June 1, according to a notice mailed to customers. The change reflects increasing costs for the Charlotte, North Carolina-based bank, spokeswoman Betty Reiss said in an interview.

Credit-card lenders have boosted fees and interest rates as U.S. unemployment rose to 8.5 percent in March, the highest since 1983. Defaults on credit cards historically rise and fall with the jobless rate, and Bank of America is the third-biggest issuer in the U.S. with $182 billion in card loans as of Dec. 31, according to data from American Express Co. The bank wrote off $11.4 billion of uncollectible card balances last year.

“They have stuck their neck out in this market by going to a 4 percent fee,” said Linda Sherry, director of national priorities at Consumer Action, a San Francisco nonprofit group that tracks credit cards. “Companies are experiencing a great number of defaults and they feel they have to make it up.”
