Bank of America: Most Downtime for a Major Banking Website

“Bank of America Corp. experienced the most Web site downtime among top U.S. banks recently, according to a study by Pingdom, a monitoring service based near Stockholm.
Bank of America’s Web site was down for a whopping 3,065 minutes — the equivalent of about two days and three hours — achieving 96.51% uptime during September and October.”

With that in mind, if you prefer to bank online Bank of America might not be the choice for you, as bank website downtime has to be one of the most annoying things ever. Several banks had less than four minutes of downtime in the same period—effectively operating at 100%, including Wachovia and Washington Mutual. Yippie! — MEGHANN MARCO
