You authorize the bank to choose how each bill payment is sent: electronic, corporate check or personal check

You authorize Bank of America to make payments in the manner it selects. Most payments are by electronic transmission, which may be an ACH or other electronic payment or a single-use virtual card in the name of the service provider; with a virtual card you will not recognize the card numbers on any Payee confirmation, and if the Payee does not accept the virtual card within five business days, the bank cancels it and automatically sends the Payee a corporate check. A corporate check is drawn on the bank's or its vendor's account; if the Payee does not negotiate it within ninety days the bank stops payment and re-credits your account, and you should tell the bank at once if a corporate check is returned to you before then. A personal check is drawn on your account when presented for payment.

During that period, and whenever it needs more time to verify transfer details, a hold is placed on your account for the amount of the transfer. If the recipient is not enrolled, may fail to register or ignores the notification, the transfer may not occur; if the recipient does not enroll, set up an email address or mobile number and accept the transfer within 14 days, it is canceled.

By making a request to send a payment, you authorize Bank of America to debit your account and transfer the amount to the Payee you designate. Your account is debited immediately for a one-time immediate payment, or on the scheduled date for a future-scheduled payment, and the transfer is made in real time to the Payee's financial institution. The bank does not control when that institution credits the Payee's account or when your account with the Payee reflects the payment. If it fails to process a payment according to your properly completed instructions and the RTP requirements, it will reimburse late payment fees charged by the Payee, in addition to any other remedies available to you under Section 8.

Charges & Financial Obligations · Company practice

Debit timing for internal transfers depends on whether they are immediate, future dated or to a credit card

One-time transfers may be made at any time and are immediately debited from a checking or savings account's available balance or a credit account's available credit. A future dated or recurring transfer (other than to a Bank of America credit card account) scheduled for a weekend or non-business day is debited from the funding account on the prior business day; other scheduled and recurring transfers are debited at the beginning of the business day requested. Future dated or recurring transfers to Bank of America credit card accounts are debited at the beginning of the scheduled date even on a weekend or non-business day.

Charges & Financial Obligations · Context

Transfers to someone else by account number: $3,500 per day, $10,000 per week, 10:45 p.m. ET cutoff

The table for transfers to someone else gives, for a transfer from your checking, savings, money market or line of credit account to the checking or savings account of someone else, a limit of $3,500 per day and $10,000 per week and a 10:45 cutoff (p.m. Eastern under the column header). The limit header cites footnotes 1 and 2. Footnote 1 says you may be eligible for higher limits if you add Secured Transfer to receive a one-time passcode on your mobile device or register a USB security key, and that higher limits may also apply for Private Bank, Merrill or small business accounts. Footnote 2 is a separate provision that is explained in its own card, which covers how the daily and weekly limits are measured.
