How to check if Bank of America is open right now

The fastest way to check if your local Bank of America branch is open today is to visit bankofamerica.com, click "Locations" at the top, enter your zip code or city, and look at the hours listed for each branch. The website shows today's hours in real time and tells you which services are available at that location — some branches offer limited services on certain days.

You can also call your specific branch directly. The phone number appears in the location results on their website. If you do not know which branch is nearest, you can call Bank of America's main customer service line at 1-800-432-1000 and ask them to confirm hours for the location you plan to visit.

Google Maps is another reliable source: search "Bank of America near me," and the map result shows hours, whether the branch is currently open, and customer reviews. This method works even if you do not have the website handy.

Standard Bank of America branch hours

Most Bank of America branches operate Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., though some open as early as 8 a.m. or stay open until 6 p.m. depending on location and demand. Saturday hours typically run from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. or 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., and many branches are closed on Sunday, though some urban locations do open on Sunday afternoons.

Hours vary significantly by branch. A downtown location in a major city may have longer hours than a suburban branch. Holiday schedules also change — branches close on federal holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day. If today is a holiday or the day after, check the website before assuming normal hours explore.

What to do if your branch is closed

If your local branch is closed, you have several options depending on what you need. Bank of America ATMs work 24/7 for withdrawals, deposits (at ATMs with deposit capability), balance checks, and transfers. You can also use online banking through the Bank of America website or mobile app to pay bills, transfer money, deposit checks by photo, and manage your account without visiting a branch.

For services that require a person — like opening a new account, explore for a loan, or resolving a dispute — you can call customer service at 1-800-432-1000 and ask whether the issue can be handled over the phone. Many routine requests can be completed this way. If you need in-person help, you can visit a different Bank of America branch that is open, or schedule an appointment at your preferred branch for the next business day through the website.

Finding a branch with extended hours

If you need banking services outside standard hours, the Bank of America location finder lets you filter by services offered. Some branches in high-traffic areas — airports, shopping centers, downtown districts — stay open later or open on Sunday. When you search for locations, you can see which branches near you have the longest hours.

Bank of America also operates financial centers in some Walmart locations, which may have different hours than standalone branches. These appear in the location search results and can sometimes be reached during Walmart's operating hours even if the main branch is closed.

Using Bank of America services without visiting a branch

For most routine banking, you do not need to visit a branch at all. The Bank of America mobile app and website let you check balances, transfer money between accounts, pay bills, deposit checks by taking a photo, and set up alerts. You can also use any Bank of America ATM nationwide to withdraw cash, deposit checks, or move money between accounts.

If you need to speak with someone, phone banking is available 24/7 at 1-800-432-1000. Representatives can help with account questions, fraud concerns, card replacement, and many other issues without you leaving home. For complex matters like loan applications or investment information, you may need an in-person appointment, but you can schedule that online or by phone even if the branch is currently closed.

Planning ahead for holiday closures

Bank of America branches close on federal holidays: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. If you need banking services on or around a holiday, plan ahead by using ATMs, online banking, or calling customer service before the holiday arrives.

The Bank of America website lists holiday hours in advance. If you are unsure whether a specific date is a holiday closure, check the locations page or call your branch a few days before. This is especially important if you need to deposit a check or handle time-sensitive transactions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I deposit a check if the branch is closed?

What if I need cash and the branch is closed?

Any Bank of America ATM works 24/7 for cash withdrawals. If you do not see one nearby, use the ATM locator on the Bank of America website or app to find the closest one. Most ATMs are located at branches, but some stand alone in retail locations or other businesses.

Are Bank of America hours the same every day?

No. Hours vary by branch location and day of the week. Saturday and Sunday hours are typically shorter than weekday hours, and some branches close on Sunday entirely. Always check your specific branch's hours before visiting.

What if my branch has different hours than the website shows?

Call the branch directly at the number listed on the website. If hours have recently changed, the website may not have updated yet. The branch staff can confirm current hours and let you know about any temporary closures.
