So Bank of America Pulls Their App Too. Just Great

Well this is fantastic. I'm not a BoA customer, but this is still upsetting to me. Another big bank lost.

Bank of America joins the Windows Phone app exodus - WMPoweruser

 

[RumoredNow]

BoA members... Log in via browser and click the "contact us" link at the bottom of your summary page. Select "Mobile and Text Banking" from the drop down menu. Save the phone contact information to disseminate to others. After you click sign out, you will get a survey where you can express your displeasure. Be sure to follow up with a phone call; be polite, but let them know that they are no longer any more convenient or attractive to you than any other bank without a mobile deposit function and you are seriously considering moving all your funds...

I sent them a text, when I logged out, I did not get a survey. This might be the nail in the coffin for me, I use this app almost every day, and the website cant deposit checks from the camera, etc.

I love Windows Phone but, not sure how I am going to deal with this one, this is BIG.

Does their mobile web page not work? I don't bank with them, so IDK

Usually you can do basic banking on the mobile site, but not the check deposit feature. This is the same for Chase.

I have really been waffling about leaving. It is just so frustrating to see cool things and know that you will never have access to them because of the windows phone. The Xbox Music app has always been a total piece of crap since they killed Zune and I have almost left a number of times of it. This BOA thing is the straw that broke the camel's back. Probably going to go with Samsung.

While this is unfortunate, the loss of this specific app can be countered by having an old IOS or Android device in your office/workroom. One of the reasons my mother was hesitant to switch to WP was because she needed her mobile banking app. I explained to her that she is in fact not required to throw her iPhone away when getting a new phone- and do you actually NEED to be able to deposit checks on the go?
She switched, her iPhone is now a dedicated check deposit tool that stays in her office.

Tl;dr, if you have another device laying around that has your banking app, you can just use that, unless for some reason you absolutely need to shuffle money around while you're away from home.
