Unfortunately I cannot drop them, I don’t have them as my bank.

I’ll pass this along to my friends in the Canadian Forces who depend on the McMillan .50 as their sniper rifle of choice.

We stopped doing business with those scoundrels back in the late seventies... nothing to do with this issue, but, with their total incompetence in all our financial dealings.

Bank of America which should be more aptly named Bank of Insolvency lost our business awhile ago. They will soon be gone as they are insolvent and only still around because they are being propped up by the Federal Reserve. Why anyone would continue to bank with them is beyond me.

I’ve never considered them before, and most certainly will never consider them today.

When I don’t agree with a business’ political position I can not in good conscience support them. We will soon no longer be accepting Bank of America credit cards as payment for our products.


Three cheers for McMillan Group!

Bank of America is that bank that gave credit cards AND bank accounts to illegal aliens. Avoid them at all costs. They’re a disgrace to the name America.

I'm not sure they want anybody's business. My one recent dealing with them was trying to cash a check written by a local businessman on his BOA account (at that branch), which they wouldn't do because I didn't have an account with them!

Good I will withdraw my money from BoA and get another institution. Screw these SOB’s this is the last straw with me.

I have a B of A credit card that I use a lot for business because i get air miles. I will transfer that account to another credit card company, for miles, and finally be done with B of A. Maybe I’ll buy another shotgun with the card first, before I transfer my account.

I have an AOPA Credit Card with BA that I only use for aviation fuel and related operation and maintenance requirements. I will now cancel that BA card, cash in my points, and use my USAA Master Card for AVGAS. That was easy.

I remember the day when almost all banks were local, even in the 10th largest city in the nation.

I knew the President, as my banker; he knew me and my business. We both knew that our business relationship was a partnership based on trust and mutual profit.

Then the locally owned bank was sold to the first in a string of national banks and soon every time I walked in there was a new young V-P that was ‘handling my account’ and I had to try to educate him about my business before he/she was transferred to another bank location.

Those were the days, my friends, I thought they’d never end...

Toss in the fact that BoA can no longer do residential mortgages and they are goners.

We had a Boa mortgage but we just ref-fi’d and BoA is gone.

Will check this out. If true, they lose my business. Sure hope somebody can find firearms friendly banks and post a list, but I fear they’re all in hiding. While working at BB&T I lost a customer because they posted a sign prohibiting firearms inside the bank. One of my customers had a habit of making large cash deposits and legally carried a concealed weapon. Bank would not make an exception for people legally carrying firearms so he left. Like many other issues, we either stand up and be heard or be quiet when a right is lost. If I close my account, a copy of this article will be given to the branch manager. Suggest others do the same.

Works for me. Doing business with the Cabelas card has been a wonderful experience. The staff is friendly, and getting points is a bonus. BOA took a bailout; so did GM. I will not conduct business with them ever again.
