Bank of America advertises a 3.19 rate on new car loans, plus I get an extra .5 percent off due to "preferred' status. Well, car is off the dealers lot so it isn't "new" anymore. BoA's refinance rate is 3.49 on their website. My fico score is 863, wife's is 842 BoA approved me today at 4.19% WTF???

4.19 is still better than Ford's 7.9, but I am not happy

I also bank with Chase (since 1981) their website show 3.29 on refinance, but due to COVID they are not doing any refinancing, same at Wells Fargo nothing due to COVID
Ugh. That's an unhappy surprise. Can you work with the dealer's finance office to get the better BofA rate?

Have you tried AAA?
