Bank of America lets you turn off its marketing mail online with just your name and address. It says the choice lasts five years.
How to stop it
- Open Bank of America’s privacy choices form. You don’t need to sign in.
- Enter your legal name and address. It asks you not to use nicknames.
- Work through the “Marketing choices” step and turn off the mail you don’t want.
- Review and submit, then keep a screenshot of the confirmation.
What to expect
- Bank of America says postal mail and phone opt-outs last five years. Set a reminder to renew.
- If you’re a customer, it can still contact you about your accounts.
- Offers already printed will still arrive.
Good to know
- Prescreened card offers from many banks stop with one free request: here’s how.
- The form’s “Information sharing choices” step is separate from marketing mail.
