Bank of America to gun company: Find another bank

[subsonic]

We use both Reliant and Renasant, happy with both.

I'm a big fan of credit unions over big banks. So, I think any BOA customer should get thee to a credit union ASAP!

Having said that, I think we're not getting the whole story here. BoA has a $250 million deal with Freedom Group according to Snopes: http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/bankofamerica.asp

Freedom Group is an American firearms manufacturer holding company which has acquired notable brands such as Bushmaster, DPMS, and Remington Arms.^{[3] :}

BoA also refuses to comment on McMillan.

It may be time to stop doing business with BOA. I would not want to use funds from their bank for purchases from gun companies.

I wonder how many pimps and drug dealers they do business with?

Signed up for Ascend FCU yesterday. I guess there's an advantage for being over 50.

There is, but I can't remember what it is right now.

I just recently paid off my BOFA credit card. I did not cancel it because I do not want my credit to take a hit, but I will never use it again. I hadn't used it for several months anyway. Bank of America is a terrible bank and Citibank is even worse. I got mad at Citibank over their shady bullcrap and canceled my card with them. I called and let the representative know what a terrible company they are and also emailed their headquarters. A couple weeks later I get a letter saying they canceled my other card for me. I thought it was funny because I had never even used the card one single time anyway. I threw both of the cards in the burn pile and watched them burn while I drunk a beer. I have a much bigger vandetta against Citibank than I do with BOFA, but they are both horrible companies.

I have my loans through a credit union. My other banking is at US Bank. I have banked with them for years and do not plan on changing anytime soon. They're a good bank.

any of the good credit unions ... I use Tennessee Eastman Credit Union When I moved back to Tn and BOA said they gave cards to illegals gave me a hard time for moving my car loan to TECU . at half the interest rate

It was Regions policy that got its locations posted. Is this BOA's policy or one executive on a crusade?

The story has been posted on a number of gun friendly sites.

Sucks for them but the last part where they were considering not accepting BOA credit cards is just silly and only serves to hurt their customers.

I bank with Renasant and SunTrust. Could not be happier. I left Bank of Amigo years ago and will never go back.

I wouldn't want BOA customers as customers.

I dumped all 5 of my Bank of America accounts in January that I had for over 10 years, I got sick of their Corporate BS and went with Wilson Bank and Trust much happier
