<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GeorgeM, post: 1358088, member: 28550&quot;]I just moved to the east side of the Dallas/Ft Worth metroplex, and am&nbsp; having a bear of a time moving my safety deposit box. The closest Bank of&nbsp; America to my house claims that there is a 3-5 year&nbsp; waiting period for a 3x5 box. I called 6 other banks in a 10 mile&nbsp; radius, and they all said the same thing. One claimed to get 20 calls a&nbsp; day about safety deposit boxes.</p><p><br /></p><p>WTF?</p><p><br /></p><p>I mean, BoA is&nbsp; giving away 3x5 boxes as an incentive for being an Advantage customer, so that&#039;s got to be producing some scarcity, but why on earth&nbsp; aren&#039;t they expanding capacity? Is it really a &#039;perk&#039; of keeping a big&nbsp; account with them if you can&#039;t use it?</p><p><br /></p><p>I was particularly annoyed&nbsp; that they have no central inventory. If you want a safety deposit box,&nbsp; they suggest that you contact each bank individually to find one. That&#039;s&nbsp; some wonderful customer service!</p><p><br /></p><p>Do you have a suggestion about how to find a convenient safety deposit box? Or, would I be better off getting a box 20 miles away to &#039;spread out my risk&#039; in the event of a wildfire or other major disaster?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
