Bummer. But, I can't help but think that BOA could make it happen if they wanted to. They could close the account and give you the money if you are the legal heir, especially if you are a customer. My bank for over 20 years almost lost all my business when they refused to cash a legal check from USAA because the branch manager refused to accept a will and a trust that proved that I was the executor and trustee of the estate.
