When I opened my checking account with Bank of America XXXX years ago, I deliberately declined to opt in for overdraft protection. My hulu payment through XXXX accidentally overdrew my account XXXX days before my direct deposit. It was my understanding that this should have been declined since I opted out of overdraft protection. A BAC customer service representative told me in writing that opting out of overdraft protection had no effect whatsoever on my account and I was penalized {$35.00} for the overdraft.
