Bank of America Weekend Hours and What You Can Do When Branches Are Closed

Bank of America branch hours on Saturday and Sunday

Most Bank of America branches are open on Saturday, but hours are shorter than weekdays — typically 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. or 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Very few branches open on Sunday, and those that do usually operate from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. or noon to 4 p.m. However, hours vary significantly by location. A branch in one neighborhood might close at 1 p.m. on Saturday while another across town stays open until 3 p.m., or one branch might be open Sunday while nearby locations are not.

The only way to know your specific branch's weekend schedule is to check directly. You can find hours on the Bank of America website by entering your zip code, calling the branch phone number, or using the Bank of America mobile app. Do not assume a branch is open based on another location's schedule.

Key Takeaways

• Saturday hours at most Bank of America branches run from 9 a.m. to 1 or 2 p.m., but this varies by location.
• Sunday hours are uncommon; only some branches open, usually from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. when they do.
• You can verify your branch's exact weekend hours on the Bank of America website, mobile app, or by calling the branch directly.
• Many banking tasks can be completed online or through the mobile app without visiting a branch on any day.
• ATMs are available 24/7 at Bank of America locations, even when the branch itself is closed.

What you can do online instead of visiting on weekends

Bank of America's website and mobile app are open around the clock, so you do not need to wait for a branch to open for most routine tasks. You can transfer money between your own accounts, pay bills, deposit checks using mobile check deposit, send money to other people through Zelle, check your balance, review transactions, and set up alerts. You can also start applications for new accounts or credit products online, though you may need to visit a branch or call to complete them.

If you need to deposit cash or get a cashier's check, those require a branch visit or ATM (for deposits at some locations). If you need to speak with someone about a problem, Bank of America customer service is available by phone seven days a week, including weekends. The phone number is on the back of your debit card or on the website.

ATM access when branches are closed

Bank of America ATMs are available 24/7, including weekends and holidays. You can withdraw cash, deposit checks, and deposit cash at most ATMs without entering the branch. If you use an ATM outside the Bank of America network, you will typically pay a fee — Bank of America charges $3 per out-of-network transaction, though the other bank may charge an additional fee.

To find a Bank of America ATM near you, use the ATM locator on the website or mobile app. The app shows which ATMs accept deposits and which ones are closest to your location.

When you must visit a branch in person

Some tasks require a branch visit because they need your signature or identity verification. These include opening a new account in person, explore for certain credit products, getting a cashier's check, reporting a lost or stolen card (though you can freeze it when ready through the app), disputing a transaction in detail, or handling complex account issues. If you are unsure whether you need to visit, call customer service first — they can often resolve the issue over the phone or direct you to the fastest solution.

If your branch is closed on the day you need to visit, you have two options: go to a different Bank of America branch that is open, or call customer service to see whether the task can be handled by phone or mail. Many branches are within a short distance of each other in urban and suburban areas.

Planning ahead for weekend banking needs

If you know you will need to visit a branch on a weekend, plan for shorter hours and arrive early. Saturday morning is typically the busiest time, so you may wait longer. If your task is not urgent, consider visiting on a weekday when branches have longer hours — most are open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. or later Monday through Friday.

For time-sensitive needs like disputing a fraudulent charge or reporting a lost card, do not wait for a branch to open. Call customer service when ready at the number on your card. Many issues can be resolved over the phone the same day, even on weekends.

Holiday hours and special closures

Bank of America branches close on major federal holidays including New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Some branches may also close on other holidays depending on state or local observance. ATMs remain available on holidays. If you are unsure whether a branch will be open on a specific date, check the website or call ahead.

During the week of Thanksgiving and the week between Christmas and New Year's, some branches may have reduced hours even on days they normally operate. Again, checking ahead prevents a wasted trip.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I deposit a check at a Bank of America ATM on the weekend?

Yes. Most Bank of America ATMs accept check deposits 24/7, including weekends. The check will be processed and the funds deposited to your account, though the timing depends on when the deposit is made and your bank's processing schedule. Mobile check deposit through the app is also available anytime and often faster.

What if I need to speak to someone on Saturday or Sunday?

Bank of America customer service is available by phone seven days a week, including weekends. Call the number on the back of your debit card or on the website. Wait times may be longer on weekends, so consider calling early in the day.

Are all Bank of America branches open on Saturday?

Most are, but not all. Some branches, particularly in smaller towns or rural areas, may be closed on Saturday. The only way to confirm is to check the website, use the mobile app, or call the specific branch.

Can I open a new account online on a weekend?

You can start the process online anytime, but you may need to complete it in person or by phone with a representative. Some account types can be fully opened online, while others require verification steps that take longer. Check the website for details on the specific account type you want.

If a Bank of America ATM is not working, use the ATM locator on the website or app to find another nearby.
