Bank of America Branch and ATM Hours on Good Friday
Bank of America is closed on Good Friday
Bank of America branches are closed on Good Friday because it is a federal holiday. This means you cannot visit a physical branch, speak with a banker in person, or use branch services like depositing checks at the teller window or opening new accounts.
However, you can still access your money through ATMs, online banking, and the mobile app on Good Friday. ATMs operate 24/7 regardless of the holiday, so you can withdraw cash, check your balance, and transfer money between your own accounts at any time.
Good Friday falls on different dates each year because it is tied to the Easter calendar. In 2024, it was March 29. In 2025, it will be April 18. In 2026, it will be April 3. If you need to handle banking business on that day, plan ahead by using digital channels instead of visiting a branch.

What you can and cannot do on Good Friday
On Good Friday, you lose access to services that require a banker or teller. You cannot open a new checking or savings account, explore for a credit card or loan, order cashier's checks, rent a safe deposit box, or speak with someone at a branch about account issues. If you need to dispute a transaction or report fraud, you can call Bank of America's customer service line, which operates on holidays, though wait times are often longer.
What remains available: ATM withdrawals and deposits, balance inquiries, fund transfers between your own accounts, bill payments through online banking, mobile check deposit, peer-to-peer payments through Zelle, credit card payments, and account monitoring. If you have a Bank of America credit card, you can still make purchases and payments on Good Friday—the holiday only affects branch locations, not the card network itself.
Planning ahead for Good Friday banking needs
If you know you will need to handle banking business on or around Good Friday, complete it on Thursday instead. Deposit checks, withdraw cash, or handle any account changes before the holiday. This prevents you from being stuck without access to services you need.
If you must deposit a check on Good Friday, use mobile deposit through the Bank of America app. Take a photo of the front and back of the check, and it will be submitted for deposit. The funds typically post on Saturday, the next business day. ATM deposits also work, though some ATMs may have daily deposit limits depending on your account type.
Other federal holidays when Bank of America closes
Good Friday is one of several days when Bank of America branches close. Other federal holidays include New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, Juneteenth, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. On all these days, branches are closed but ATMs and online banking remain available.
Bank of America observes the federal holiday schedule, so if a holiday falls on a weekend, the bank may close on the nearest weekday instead. For example, if Independence Day falls on a Sunday, branches close on Monday. Check the Bank of America website or call your local branch before visiting on or around a holiday to confirm hours.
Calling Bank of America customer service on Good Friday
Bank of America's customer service phone line operates on Good Friday, even though branches are closed. You can call to report fraud, dispute transactions, ask account questions, or handle other issues that require speaking with someone. The number is on the back of your debit card or credit card.
Expect longer wait times on holidays because fewer representatives are working. If your issue is not urgent, waiting until Saturday or Monday may get you through faster. For emergencies like fraud or a lost card, call when ready—customer service is available 24/7 for these situations.
Finding your nearest Bank of America branch hours
Bank of America's website has a branch locator tool where you can search by address or zip code. Each branch listing shows regular hours and notes which holidays affect that location. Some branches in certain areas may have different holiday schedules, so checking the specific branch you plan to visit is more reliable than assuming all branches follow the same schedule.
You can also call your local branch directly to confirm it will be closed on Good Friday. The branch phone number appears in the locator tool. Calling ahead takes two minutes and prevents a wasted trip.
