If you are like me, you are concerned, frustrated, and a bit confused that Bank of America has been allowed, and enabled, by the U.S. government to suck the life out of our financial system. In addition, if you are like me you are very pissed-off that BOA has recently sent out letters to customers, like myself, that our credit card interest rates have nearly tripled. Because they feel like it. Regardless of the customer’s history and good standing with the bank.
Both personally and professionally I believe this brand has become a joke, a picture of sleaze that even Larry Flint can not compete with. At least Larry Flint makes money the old fashioned way, he earns it! BOA has to steal their money from us to continue to fuel their failing machine.
I believe it is time that we Bank of America customers tell these pirates that we are not going to take this anymore and we are going to give our business to the smaller regional and local banks that deserve the business.
I ask each of you to close your accounts at BOA and walk out the door this week. Tell them goodbye, and that we are not going to bend-over for them anymore and take this crap! If we all do this it will send a message that extortion-based banking is no longer acceptable in this new era of customer empowerment. I also ask that each of you share my new interpretation, with your friends and family, of what I believe the acronym BOA should now stand for, as well as the new logo Bank of America should employ since it is much more fitting and aligned with their business model.

Actually since 9/11 …
Actually since 9/11 the post office requires you to use a credit card or visit a postal clerk if you intend to send something over 16 oz. or something. So just make sure the dog weighs less than 16 oz. I know, it’s the employee who suffers, not the corporation, but based on my dealings with B of A, the employees are the biggest dipshits I’ve ever had the privilege of calling, so let ‘em suffer too until they can find a real job. Working for a crook makes them crooks.
ROFLMAO!!! I bout …
ROFLMAO!!! I bout fell out mer chair and floored me butthole, I did.
Thaks! IF B O A …
Thaks! IF B O A SENDS YOU A PREPAID ENVELOPE SEND YOUR DOG SHIT, BRICKS, OR ROCKS TO THEM USING THEIR POSTAGE; SHOW ‘EM WHAT YOU THINK OF THEM AND MAKE THEM PAY DEARLY FOR IT. THE COST OF SENDING A BRICK IS MIGHTY COSTLY, IF WE ALL DID THAT THINK ABOUT HOW MUCH OF A WASTE THAT WOULD BE. Include a note: your overdraft fees made me so pissed, I a brick, I mean just look! hehe
I closed my b of a …
I closed my b of a account long ago and went with a small local bank. We all need to do this in order to prevent the widespread corruption of government by the banking industry. Stand behind your congresspeople to End the Fed and return to sound money policy!
Great advice. This …
Great advice. This will cost B of A even more money for purchases and wearing of Hazmat protective gear when every other letter contains dog crap. Plus they will have to train each employee on how to use the equipment with costly mandatory training meetings. Thanks reymatt76, my dogs do do will now support a good cause.
If it has prepaid …
If it has prepaid postage, make sure you include a brick or load of dog with the mail. This way they have to pay for all that postage AND they get to open up a nice present when it gets to their offices.
I’m gonna start …
I’m gonna start sending my B of A mailers back. This will teach them to stop flooding my mail box with junk mail. After I cost the bank a few cents, they will get the point and stop sending them
What kind of pecker …
What kind of pecker heads would allow this Banks to jump the their rates up to 30 to 34 % I agree with the young lady you get a better deal with a lone sharks,

we are not going to see a dime. it will go
to the Gov. and be spent as usual an that
is only if we get paid back.
BofA was also …
BofA was also involved with ACORN… Extending credit to illegal aliens to acquire housing loans that went into foreclosure…
Every BofA mailer I get, I send back (prepaid mailers) with a note, or empty…It only costs them if they are used…Screw’um…

Use Local Banks or Credit Unions Now!!!

you go man!!! i had the same experience with wells fargo and got hit upside the head with overdraft fees and got signed up for things i didn’t even ask for.
i recommend everyone try credit unions !! theres a world of difference and they wont try to rob you blind.

the tax payer is …
the tax payer is going to make a ton of money off of the bailout… do you understand the bailout? banks are paying that will interest. DO YOU COMPLAIN ABOUT THE AUTO COMPANIES FOR TAKING BAILOUT MONEY? Sir do you know what you are talking about in this video? I am a consumer too and felt your video was a joke because you do not know what you are talking about. Roy you are a moron
That’s a crazy …
That’s a crazy comment, alright. If your account is perfectly within the credit lines, so as to not get fees levied against you, and then the bank raises the interest rate at their own discretion, what do you think it’s going to do to millions of accounts? It’s going to overdraw them. Duh.
When an …
When an unauthorized charge showed up on my account, BofA just about accused me of trying to get over on them, which was insulting enough. But to add insult to injury, they reversed the charge, added it back on, complained the backing out hadn’t been done right nd put the charge right back onto my account a few days later (without notifying me) and it overdrew the account. I have never been back since and the problem just gets bigger as they continue to add interest to the account. I
I advocate a …
I advocate a boycott of BOA, but it will actually do little good. Our Federal Govt. will simply give them more of our tax dollars to replace what is removed from accounts!
STOP PAYING! I …
STOP PAYING! I stopped 4 months ago. They aleady got my money from the bailout.

Great speech! Love it, let’s boycott Bank of America.

I closed my BOA account last month and moved to a small local bank and couldn’t be happier! They don’t have the technology to post transactions immediately but, when I walk in the lobby they know my name!

Yes, rasing your intrest rates on your credit card for no reason is crazy! Over drawing your acct. and wanting fees back is another… Stop spending money you dont have and you wont get fee’s..
