FIA Card Services & Lawsuits

In early 2015, the Department of the Treasury fined Bank of America and FIA Card Services $30 million for engaging in illegal business behaviors. Some of the accusations included filing nonnotarized affidavits, providing no oversight or management for attorneys they used to handle debt collections, and directly violating the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act. Although this incident might be isolated and only stem from the actions of a few members of the companies, it does showcase the fact that FIA Card Services, and any large credit card company, are capable of overstepping their legal boundaries for profit.
