Do banks do background checks on unpaid internships?

Have a few unpaid internships, with one being with a boss I haven’t been able to have contact with. Will they check each unpaid experience and how do I deal with a boss I can’t connect with?

Boss and I also left on unfavorable terms, how do i proceed with this?

Just list the internship and provide the general number for the firm. Banks will only verify employment dates with HR unless you specifically list someone as a reference.
