Title: Trouble wiring money to coinbase
Post by: helovescrypto on February 11, 2018, 12:42:53 AM
Need help...
I requested next-day USD wire transfer from my BankofAmerica checking account to coinbase Thursday (Feb 8th, 6:19 PM). The cutoff time is 8 PM, so it should be sent by end of Friday.  

The money was NOT sent.

Just called BOA, was told that the money was intercepted and held. Asked me call 800-729-9473 on Monday.
Anyone has trouble sending cash to coinbase?

ps. Someone can teach me how to upload photo? I want to show you the BOA email confirmation.

This is not the right section I guess. It should be in Bitcoin discussion section, move there.

If I'm not mistaken, Bank of America recently has tagged coinbase/gdax account and won't process any transactions
do a google search on "coinbase bank of america", you can find a lot about it

There is what turned out.
Bank of America only sends "wire transfer" when you pick 30-dollar fee for the same-day transfer.
The next-day or three-day transfer are sent by ACH. BoA does not show difference in the three transfer option.
My money was sent by BoA ACH to a wire account, and my money stuck between BoA and coinbase's bank.

Had to call many times to sort it out - BoA gave me varies explanation from different divisions and agents - from social media department, wire transfer department, ACH department and finally claim department. Guys, if your fund is stuck, call your money sending bank and ask to speak to their "digital claim" extension. ps,  contact BoA support in tweeter, that's most prompt answer.
