Bank of America is the virtual poster child for online banking with some 11 million users and an award-winning website. However, after two years of intense advertising of its free bill-payment service along with more than $100 million in foregone fees,* you'd think a search on their site for "bill payment" would take you to a pitch for its online payment service.
