ABC Tracks Down Bank of America CEO Response to Change.org Petition

[AryanKnight]

FYI: ~That does it, i'm removing my two accounts from BoA, as their irresponsible business tactics demonstrated here reveals them to be to unreliable to be holding any of MY entrusted money. Also, by Foreclosing upon millions of Home-owners struggling to survive in this dire Bank'ster subverted economy; --they are revealing themselves to be ruthless jewZionists in their scheme to destroy the economy, then to profiteer as they did before in 1929, -by grabbing property of people put out of work.!!

[massfuque]

It's just a matter of time until someone tracks these maggots down and does them harm , people have lost everything - it isn't hard to find the home addresses of the entire B of A executive staff members . I hope you enjoyed the ride , while it lasted . The safest place for you to be may be jail , it's only a matter of time until people push back , and it will not be pretty .

a multi-billion dollar industry's website shutdown because of too much traffic?

[2koolken]

this molley is a hero! this affected other banks that were unfairly raising the fees, but it was only a matter of time and the threshold was a whopping $5 fee just for checking your balance, i advise you to double check in your area to see if fee is waived

[fullmetalfacemelt]

fucking moneybags scumface

[davocn]

Only poor people have to pay the fee...



[jaysmic24]

moynihan you are a dispicable heartless excuse for a human being

[WolfmanMusic]

fuck bank of america. they are slimes. This is not the first bullshit they have done. They used to try to charge me for cashing a check there, drawn on their account, unless I opened an account with them. I talked them out of it. It was illegal.

[chillempress]

I'm done with this place good bye BANK of AMERICA 

[WoWCasuist]

Banks and bankers alike make me SICK!! "uh, well, we need the money to provide the 'great' service that we provide to our customers." GIVE ME A FREAKING BREAK!! You scumbags loan out 10x the money you take in AND charge insane interest on its use and give back chump change to the customers who enable you to become rich, and now you have the AUDACITY to ask for an additional $5 a month from your millions of customer? Will your GREED NEVER END BANKERS!?!?! You make me want to VOMIT!!

[Ysacoelfua]

Everybody needs to see youtube video called:

BANK OF AMERICA WACHOVIA & WELLS FARGO CAUGHT FUNDING MEXICAN DRUG CARTELS

[asdfgoogle]

Fuck all financial institutions except credit unions and USAA.

[DDaniel20067]

Never had an account and never will, Bank of America my ass!

[gagsnet]

Greed leads to a big FAIL

[coffeetablesex]

FUCK BANK OF AMERICA

[treysparker]

I shorted BofA (BAC) at $9.53

I made $83,000 so far :)

Benefiting from BofAs failure feels fantastic.

[WhirlingWolves]

@treysparker could you explain further what exactly you mean by "shorted BofA (BAC) at $9.53"?

[chuck3377]

My rich elitist corporate friends were going to be poor, because they made idiotic bets and lost. Thank you american worker for bailing out my rich friends and keeping them rich (which is not capitalism). By the way we will be taking your social security, medicare, pensions, jobs, houses, health care, privacy, roads, parks, and whatever else we can think of to pay for it. Support endless fake reasoned wars that cost trillions.

[bugilt]

There are a bunch of class action lawsuits against WF for reorganizing overdraft fees to make the largest fee. I personally quit using banks 2 years ago after wells fargo did that to me several times.

[swixomix]

If you live in the southeast, use the Southern Federal Credit Union. Its great, amazing customer service easy to use online banking and no shitty hidden fees. at all.

[serpico89]

as this video exemplifies, grass-roots activism CAN make a difference!!!!

[silkypixel]

I canceled my Bank of America checking account yesterday. It almost felt as good as voting.

[MrRiggyRiggs]

Bank of Amerika!!!!! 

[mikesadick]

Why are people wasting so much time on this? Stop feeding the monster and it will die! Switch to a community bank or credit union.

[RealHempman]

Banks are killing the World Economy. Assasinate the banks, starve them to death; take your money to a Credit Union or small local communbity bank. A little homework and I found half a dozen local credit unions and small banks with no charges to use my own money. Most of the credit unions provided no charge money orders on the spot, most have agreements with local ATMs to provide no service fee uses. Anything you can do with a debit/credit card can usually be done with a Credit Union card.

[wiiLuvCalifornia]

Lol caught him off guard! #embarrassing

[msbri1983]

NICE JOB ABC! you would never see Fox actually take the initiative! 

[poorandimmature]

Always nice to see objective journalism come out of a corporate outlet- catches me off guard every time haha, good work today ABC.

[hvnlyngl3]

I seriously don't need to belong to a union??? I always thought you HAD to be some type of a union worker to get an account in a credit union bank. Thanks so much for this information. Guess where I'm headed tomorrow? I never thought I could hate a bank as much as I do Wells Fargo. Thanks again Tut Tut!

[boogiechillen123]

I fully support Change.org in this matter, after the bank bailout there is NO way that BoA should be trying to line their pockets with these bullshit charges. I had my account charnged for 24 dollars, due to some asinine rule about not being able to withdraw my OWN money. The BoA rep I spoke to blamed it on "the goverment wanting us to fine people for withdrawing money". Enough of these greedy ruthless bastards.

[PianoRivera]

@boogiechillen123 Get a lawyer ASAP. Don't even bother responding to this; go do that shit NOW.

[hvnlyngl3]

Slowly pulling my money out of Wells Fargo. I loved Wachovia. Wells Fargo took over and it was down hill from there. I going to a smaller community bank. Wish I could do the credit union thing but I don't belong to any unions.

[TutTutOpenSesame]

@hvnlyngl3 You don't need to belong to a union to join a credit union.

[masonjt]

canceled my account 4 days ago...FUCK BANK OF AMERICA

[cheryltaufa]

@masonjt i hear ya, i bank with chase and i will leave too if they institute a fee!

[masonjt]

@cheryltaufa yeah i think its absurd to charge us to use their cards..they already own half of the U.S. so i find it hard to believe they need more money

[sssarsss]

this is how banks payback the $800B they STOLE from US taxpayers

.. by charging us monthly fees, by foreclosing our homes, it doesnt end.

[blognewb]

This is STUPID. LET THEM CHARGE 5$. MOVE YOUR MONEY TO A CREDIT UNION! Solved. Let THEM FAIL!

[TidesCommunity]

Check out the Move Your Money Project

[ahmelody]

There are banks and credit unions that don't have these fees. Many of them are community banks and credit unions that have a higher rating than the big banks, making them much safer too.

[BobDodgey]

Addison Avenue Credit Union is opening new accounts for people. They don't charge for a simple ATM/Checking account, and they actually loan money.

[PeachMcD]

I love my credit union

[ASSEMblerEX]

Take your money out and put it in another bank!! STARVE THE BEAST

[pointmanzero]

@ASSEMblerEX that just makes another beast

[ASSEMblerEX]

@pointmanzero You don't understand how credit unions work then.

[pointmanzero]

@ASSEMblerEX a credit union doesn't give me the freedom with my money that I get with PNC

[ASSEMblerEX]

@pointmanzero then you're sheeple. baaaaaaaaaa

[pointmanzero]

@ASSEMblerEX not really. I have an account with a credit union, but I also have a PNC account for everyday usage.

I left BOA because they suck, I left wachovia because they suck, I left wells fargo because they suck.

PNC is pretty awesome.

[ytgv3fc7]

@pointmanzero buy gold & silver. Now you are your own bank.

[pointmanzero]

@ytgv3fc7 you have no idea what your talking about.

[ytgv3fc7]

@pointmanzero I only speak BECAUSE I know what I'm talking about. Having real money (gold, silver) in your OWN hand means you have the power to control the real value of your savings, unlike fractional reserve debt-based notes (dollars, bonds) which have no backing but lies & theft (taxation+inflation). I am my own bank, able to lend, refusing to borrow, able to trade for high value to food, bills, etc. GOLD BARS IN HAND.

[pointmanzero]

@ytgv3fc7 you confuse commodity for money. I am sorry.

[ytgv3fc7]

@pointmanzero you will be sorry - commodities are the only kind of money - not knowing this makes you bankrupt as you only hold debt. That debt is backed by fraud and you pretend it is money. You will wake up soon to find out it is worth nothing at all.
