Dear Bank of America,
I am a customer. That's right. I have a couple of Bank of America credit cards. My wife and I are also looking for a bank for some accounts. But you know, your ingratitude leads me to refuse to bank with you and to consider cutting up those credit cards.
First off, you ...

Bank of America Seems to Like Pissing of Americans
culturekitchen - fresh dissent served daily —
Just yesterday I wrote about how Bank of America, right after grabbing taxpayer money through the bank bailout, went ahead and used some of that money to lobby against the very popular Employee Free Choice Act and tried to raise money for Republican Senators. By the way, the Employee Free Choice Act passed DESPITE this use of bailout money by Bank of America to lobby against it.
This led me to decide to not bank at Bank of America and to stop using my credit cards from them. Funny how they love corporate welfare but oppose anything that helps working class and middle class Americans.
I also decided to look into Bank of ...
Bank of America: MORE Hypocrisy and an Alternative
culturekitchen - fresh dissent served daily —
Recently I have been harping on how Bank of America took a taxpayer-funded bailout then tried to screw taxpayers. And I put this into a context of poor customer service by Bank of America in general, drawing on some experiences others have posted. Bank of America is also tied for worst bank (with Citicorp) on Co-op America's Responsible Shopper site. I know of at least three people who have decided to stop doing business with Bank of America recently over these issues.
Now I want to add one more bit of hypocrisy into the list of reasons to take your business elsewhere. Seems Bank of America makes claims about their ...
