Case Summary:Bank of America, NA is settling a class action alleging that it offered confusing payment options for its eBill AutoPay credit card payment program. The complaint alleged that the “Amount Due” option was confusing because it paid only the minimum amount due and not the full amount due, so that customers ended up maintaining a balance and paying interest when they intended to pay their full account balance.
