Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire McMillan Stocks and BofA

Great idea.

The NRA VISA card is thru FNB of Omaha, I've had no problems with it or them for a long time. If I cant find a local institution to switch to, I may consider moving the checking ect. to them.
bofa is toast just as soon as I can find a suitable replacement....

When Bank of Amerika mails you one of those postage paid credit card applications, mail it back to 'em stuffed with pizza coupons, church bulletins, and gun ads.

Yes it is true. Thank you for the support guys.

Hmmm. I'm guessing they are a federally chartered bank. That means we the people have given them the privelege of operating. Maybe we ought to be looking at a new federal law to prohibit financial institutions from refusing to do business with people engaged in legal activities.

I work for a smallish local commercial bank where one of our big annual events is a day-long charity shoot to support Senior Neighbors. Founding members of the sn mgmt team are huge supporters of the shooting sports, and our whole culture is built upon hunting, fishing, and shooting as central means to establish and cultivate meaningful customer relationships.

As a guy who calls upon business owners on a regular basis I can tell you that thier 2A stance is one of MANY reasons why I wish that BOA were our only competition !! BOA sucks bawls on a variety of levels...

No we don't want to do that. McM has done the right thing agreeing to disagree and bringing it to the buying public as an "fyi" concerning that institution's lending preferences. That is the way free markets ought to function. I for one don't want any more regulation than we already suffer under; there are no problems so big that gov't involvement can't make 'em WORSE!

Having an Alaska Airlines CC really makes sense for me, but it's a BoA card. Any good substitute?

I used BoA about 20 years ago. Had one of their employees and her mother steal a check from a mail box. The employee was depositing them into her mothers account. When I confronted the bank manager, she said she would take care of it. When I asked how, she stated it would be dealt with internally. Just what I thought.... a cover up.

I advised the bank manager (Sun City Calif branch) that I had already notified the FBI fraud division, and the US Postal Fraud division (check was stolen from my mail box). She about had a heart attack right then and there. In addition, the person that sent me the check, my Allstate Insurance agent had reported them too.

The teller and her mother were prosecuted, the bank manager and the assistant bank manager were also prosecuted for attempting to cover it up.

They're the WORST in the industry !

Anyone banking with BoA needs to move their monies and investments now.

I had a home mortgage that had been sold from one lender to BoA.... I immediately refinanced with another lender... They want to know why. I told them it was none of their business.

Rush really isn't a big gun supporter. In fact most of the conservatives (said conservatives) on radio aren't. Leaves you really wondering doesn't it.

An Atta Boy for McMillian.

I respectfully disagree, how am I forced as a tax paying citizen to give $$ to a bloated inefficient bank that can turn right around and make it difficult for me to exercise my 2nd rights?


ACLU, my rights are being infringed upon with my own tax dollars. Please put a stop to this.

Huh? I don't understand what you're getting at here. The comment I was addressing was the suggestion that a regulation ought to be put into place limiting the ability of banks to deny loans based upon a business' sector. That has nothing to do with you as a taxpayer giving money to the institution, ,nor does it infringe upon your 2A rights.

Now bailouts... I would agree that those were unjust, but my agreement would have nothing to do w/ 2A... Just free market common sense.

You don't have to do business w/ any institution whose philosophies you disagree with. They reserve the same rights, which is how it should be; the gov can't and shouldn't tell either of you what to do or with whom to do it.

pfffffffff

It never ends.

Some dolt(s) with a cause, and money-to-burn.

Bank of America, should be Bank of California....

Sure gets old.

From the toothpaste in the morning, to the mouthwash at night, and every phase 'tween, you have to wonder "where do they stand?".

As to BOA, I don't use 'em (and never will), but do have customers that do, so there you have it. Nothin' I can do 'bout that 'cept grimmace.

Explain a little on your Rush comment. I find him to be very supportive of the 2A and gun owners with their guns. You are dead ass wrong Mr bee about el Rushbo

what he said

though I'm getting miles on my Capital One CC as well, it has a much lower credit limit than my BOA that I use at work.

I haven't paid for a plane ticket in many, many years, trips for us, the kids, my family etc.

but since we also accept those "non qualified" cards at our bidnesses, we pay for other folks to go as well, the rate on those cards is ridiculous.

I'll check into my Cap 1 cc and get back to ya

Story is hitting some new outlets.

Also made the NRA's newsfeed today.

They've been in a crappy bank for a long time, I honestly wonder why anyone would use them.

As to the AK Airlines credit card, I'm thinking we'll have to cancel ours. We are looking into a discover card as we can use it to pay for our daughters college tuition, and hence get enough mileage per year to cover at least one r/t ticket to school.

I have a $20K line of business credit with BofA which I have used for about 6 years. At any given moment, I might use half of it and then pay the balance down to "zero" the next month.

I just canceled that line of credit and opened a new one with US Bank. BofA can shove it up their arses.
