<description><![CDATA[The error message being displayed on Bank of America&amp;39's home page.(Credit:CNET)Bank of America's online-banking service is down for U.S. customers.When users across the U.S. try to access their online banking, the Bank of America home page displays a message saying &quot;online banking is temporarily unavailable.&quot; It provides no indication of when the service should be back up and running.Bank of America has stopped short of calling the issue an outright &quot;outage.&quot; Company spokeswoman Tara Burke told CNET in a phone conversation today that an update to BofA's Web site over the weekend is causing the &quot;intermittent service disruptions.&quot; She also noted that the issue &quot;is not impacting customer information or compromising customer security.&quot;According to a Bank of America technical-support person who also spoke with CNET by phone today, the problem first occurred yesterday afternoon. The company was able to restore service this morning, only to see it go down &quot;nationwide&quot; a few hours later.As one might expect, upset customers have taken to Twitter to express displeasure. A search of &quot;Bank of America outage&quot; on the social network reveals dozens of tweets referencing the issue hitting the site every minute. One of the more comedic comments came from a user coming to the conclusion that the outage &quot;must mean Bank of America doesn't want my mortgage payment.&quot;In her conversation with CNET, Burke wouldn't say how many customers have been affected by the issue. She also didn't provide any more details about the problem. She would say only that the company is working on a fix.&quot;We're looking to restore capability as quickly as possible,&quot; she said.We will update this story as we learn more.CNET's Elinor Mills contributed to this report<br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Top financial services company Citi has made its first investment in residential solar power via a $40 million fund to finance residential solar projects in 2011 for SolarCity.The fund will be used to finance solar leases, bringing SolarCity&amp;'s total project financing to more than $700 million, the company says. Solar leasing is a fast-growing and popular model among solar startups in which financing deals with banks like Citi allow homeowners to lease solar panels and pay for the cost of solar generated, which can come out to less than what traditional utilities charge. In fact, fuel cell company Bloom Energy recently announced a similar program for electricity generated by its fuel cells.Residential solar services companies have done well lately in raising cash and growing their services. Solar leasing startup Sungevity recently raised a $15 million round and is also eying the East Coast for expansion opportunities' solar financing and installation network Solar Universe announced this month it hadraised $7 million and hired away an executive from SolarCity.SolarCity is one of the top companies in the segment, and it&amp;'s been expanding this year with the acquisition of an East Coast installation company and expansion into Maryland and the District of Columbia. The company has 10,000 projects completed or underway in the country.a4AWe expect the partnership with Citi to be the first phase of a relationship that will significantly increase residential solar adoption in the U.S.,&amp;'' said Benjamin Cook, SolarCitya4a4s vice president of project finance in a statement.Next Story: Deals &amp;038' More: ReachForce raises $4.6M to help marketers find contacts, Atzip gets $614K for real-world socializing Previous Story: Aria raises $20M to handle online billing for large companiesPrintEmailTwitterFacebookGoogle BuzzLinkedIn      DiggStumbleUponRedditDeliciousGoogleMore&amp;8230'          Tags: Solar, solar financing, solar leasingCompanies: SolarCityPeople: Benjamin Cook          Tags: Solar, solar financing, solar leasingCompanies: SolarCityPeople: Benjamin CookIris Kuo is the VentureBeat's lead GreenBeat writer.
