I closed all my accounts with BoA last month. They are incompetent as well as treasonous. They were shocked I was leaving. Clueless.
Most companies like these have no allegiance to America. They would sell us out to whomever has the cash. Economic whores.
I closed my account with BoA when you first reported the LaRatsa connection a while back.
This all seems so discouraging but I’m a firm believer that every dog has his day. This ACORN nonsense will not last forever and all their criminal voter registration fraud will be the end of them (sooner or later).
II
I closed my account at BoA years ago, not because I knew about any of this, but because of their bad customer service.
I am glad I did so.
I guess evil/greedy “corporate America” is A-okay as long as its racism be the pandering kind.
What, exactly, does this have to do with the bailout?
That’s the free market for you. Gotta take the good and the bad.
I have a hell of lot of money in our local B of A. At one time my old company was running four million a years through their hands. At any given time they could borrow five times my average deposit , which they could lend out.
NO MORE
I’m out of there and they’re going to know why. I’m also writing my trade association of eight hundred small business who are still my customers and encourage them to do the same.
GEEEEESSSS!!!
I knew last year after the illegal immigration/BoA thing I should have canceled my account, but I just kept putting it off.
As of about 15 minutes ago, the car loan I had with them has been switched to Wells Fargo.
Buh-bye BoA!
I’M PISSED!!!!!!!!!!
I also have E-mails of an additional three thousand, mostly conservative small business owners who are going to here about this.
I bet between my trade group and these additional businesses, B of A will take a fifty million dollar hit.
If B of A is intimidated by ACORN, they’re really going find out where their
true alliances should be.
Don’t fool with FamilyMan!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
My mortgage is with Bank of America….. someone tell me what to do…. I’m not rich or liberal.
Thank you Michelle for motivating me.
Refinance with a bank that believes in this country.
Several years ago, I dropped my BOA credit card and sent them a letter explaining that I can’t do business with them.
Now, every time I get one of their credit card applications, I simply put it in the return envelope with a note that I do not support their business decisions.
I do not sign my name. If I am lazy, I just seal and mail the return envelope.
No muss, no fuss.
MNUSMCDavid, ever think about dealing with a credit union, better interest rates for savings and loan pay backs plus their usually locally controlled and owned?
I meet my son tomorrow to say goodbye to him as he leaves for Iraq……… I hate this government we now have…… you have a sworn enemy. I send my son off to fight with a president who has no respect for him or his party who hasn’t either respect or reason to support him. You stinking bastards( yes, I mean you… you RINOs and leftists, Democrats and fence sitters), forgive me for being hateful… it’s my nanosecond of hate… I’ll be rational sometime tomorrow., you hope!
Wells Fargo, another large operation that will squeeze every dime out of you they can. I dropped them years ago when they charged for phone assistance on your account if you called more than twice a month.
@17 David. Your son is an honorable man and I have rspect and thanks for him as many do! I am a GOE member and will always back our soldiers.
Thank your son for me and good luck, god bless!
MNUSMCDavid, thank you for your service and the service of your son, may the best be watching after him on his journey to protect America.
Talk about limited choices. Who’s left that hasn’t sold us out?
Time to pull my accounts from BofA. Actually, WAY past time.
Good advice.
We’re the people that the banks depend on and not destructive groups such as ACORN. A bank really is nothing more than a money store. Don’t buy their produce and they’re out of business.
WE ARE THE ONES WITH THE POWER
Try a community bank that never got caught up in this Fannie and Freddie nonsense. There are plenty of them around. You just have to look.
AND have better credit.
Wow! A whole 2 mil.
I refused to do any business with Bank of America as soon as they started publicly pandering to illegal invaders with credit cards. It appears every location that the community hustlers have extorted funds from B of A is either overrun by illegals or entitlement minded welfare recipients. No wonder these guys need to be bailed out. Grrrrrrrrr!
ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒE (mo-lone lah-veh) Translation: Come and take them!
You’ve paid your dues and far more. If you don’t have the right to complain, none of us do.
The BoA story is not over. This PoS is not done begging for government handout. I closed my only account with these idiots last year.
Move to a bank that did not take the TARP 1 money.
And, #17 David: God Bless you and your son.
***
How much did Bank of America give to Jesse Jackson’s shakedowns?
***
@#17 David–I pray twice daily for the brave military men and women who protect and defend our country.
***
May God guide and protect your son in his military career–may he return home uninjured and of sound mind.

Your son is fighting for our country not its politicians and he has my gratitude.
Be proud and realize he will be among true patriots like yourself, thanks to both of you!
ACORN is the largest most radical group in America and despite their cover, they
exist to further the socialists causes of Soros and Obama.
Not one dime of public money should be allowed to reach them. RICO laws were created to fight organized crime- they should be used to fight organized subversion.
Think I am exaggerating?
Know thy enemies
MNUSMCDavid –
Give this to your son. It was said over 100 years ago and got me through some dark times during my tour. I hope it helps you and your young soldier.
I’ve been banking at small community banks and USAA for over 20 years. I have no need for the large mega-banks. I walk in the lobby, and everyone knows my name. They also seem to know everyone else who walks in as well. Very impressive. Make the switch, you’ll never regret it.
I opened an account with BOA to pay off another card because they were offering a 0% interest for a year. That was all fine and good. And of course, I knew that at the end of that year my interest would go up to about 8%. Again, that was all fine and good. But, when they more than doubled my minimum payment from $80 to $210, I must admit that I was more than a little pissed off. I am a single mom working two jobs(not getting support from father and proud to say not from my wonderful government) and it just about did me in.
Needless to say, BOA will not be getting another dollar from me!
Dumped BofA about two years ago, after they bought my nice regional bank and f*cked it up.
So many more fees, and customer service was horrible. My parents left them too. Got a friend to leave them because of LaRaza.
Leaving this AM to say goodbye to my son. Words here cannot express my thanks for all you all have said. I have passed on your thoughts to him and he says to keep fighting for our country and conservatism… he told me to tell you all, that those of us who fight for principle over short term goals are warriors at heart. Gotta love that kid! . PK great quote , I will give it to him. Remember, everyone, I have your sixes as well, always.
MNUSMCDavid–You and your son are two of my heroes. God bless both of you.
a couple million to finance this group of thugs and a couple million to finance that group of thugs and a couple billion to pay the bonusses of the world’s smartest serial bankrupters, and pretty soon you find yourself in real financial trouble. why can’t the average citizen understand these jerks are toooo big and important to fail.
Heh!!! Here in OK, instead of working with ACORN, it’s La Raza. Bidness must be really slow since we enacted 1804 a year and half ago. Most illegals have fled the State, not to mention restrictions that would expose said illegals that choose to remain. Thus La Raza can only assist citizens and those with bona-fide Green Cards.
That brings me to another thot, not counting the defaults due to the exodus, I wonder what is BfA’s foreclosure rate in OK compared to States like CA etc where illegals can get mortgages?
USAA is the best deal in banking, all of you that are former service members can get a membership. They send you postage paid envelopes for deposits, refund the atm fees that other banks charge you, so the lack of local branches is no problem. They offer insurance, retirement planning, etc. as well.
No large executive bonuses for bailouts!
AND!!!!!!!
No bailout tax money for political donations!
