"Bank Of America Branch In California Reportedly Refuses To Allow Protesters To Close Accounts

Bank Of America Branch In California Reportedly Refuses To Allow Pr...


Should people who are tired of paying extra fees be allowed to close their bank accounts in protest? One Bank of America official reportedly doesn't think so.

According to Addicting Info, two women involved with the Occupy Santa Cruz movement in California walked into a Bank of America branch earlier this week and attempted to close their bank accounts. In response, the bank manager threatened to lock the doors and call the police on them. Her reasoning? You can't be a customer and a protester at the same time, the manager said.

If you can...get your money out of the banks...before the government decide to confiscate all the money of all Americans except their federal goons and law enforcements minions... and send you to a FEMA camp with all your family to get suppose shelter, food and medical help....and exterminated or enslave as well...Wake up America, The New Corporate Fascist World Order is coming

@ Vincent Fair enough, as I was watching the video myself I was "placing bets" myself as to whether or not the camera would walk in. I wouldn't-- for fear of being arrested. Maybe it's a "California boy" thang :) I couldn't believe it when they walked in with the camera :)

I  can  certainly  see  where  the  Bank  Manager  was  concerned  with  the  girl  with  the  sign  coming  into  the  Bank,  but  threatening  to  call  the  police  was  uncalled  for.  Remove  the  sign  -  yes,  but  ANYONE  can  close  their  bank  account  if  they  so  choose  to  do  so.  The  Bank  Manager  was  certainly  scared  the  the  protest  was  coming  into  her  Branch  to  do  damage  or  disrupt  their  daily  routien.  Any  Branch  would  probably  hire  security  for  a  situation  -  this  branch  had  none.  They  were  all  scared  of  a  robbery  -  then  why  stay  open  with  NO  SECURITY?  Doesn't  make  sense  to  me  at  all.  And  in  the  middle  of  a  Protest.

I  saw  men  and  women  older  than  my  own  Mother  in  amounst  the  protestors.  And  the  Bank  still  stayed  open.  They  must  be  totally  stupid.  Not  saying  that  Seniors'  are  a  threat  -  but  it  just  shows  how  stupid  some  Branch  Managers  are!!!

And the Cops did just what they were told to do..regardless!

I think we should,some how,let their children know what their parents really do for a living.

And their classmates.It`s a kind of "From the Inside Out" type of thing;like Rust.

My mom just withdrew her saving from BOA because the interest rate sucked beyond belief more than ever!  I also experienced a hard time with them a few years back and was not a happy camper.

On the surface, after reading that customers cannot be protesters at the same time, I thought "That woman is too stupid to be a bank manager." Now there are two sides to every story. I have complete faith that had the women walked in and simply closed their accounts and explained to the teller why they were closing their accounts, the bank would have happily complied. Any two or three accounts being closed-- even substantial ones-- wouldn't even be a blip on the radar. Even if the women brought the "protest" sign into the bank, I expect all would have gone reasonably smoothly. The fact that they brought a VIDEO CAMERA into the bank, which they knew would immediately be on YOUTUBE, that was the problem. They guessed right, didn't they? YouTube was the problem, not customer rights.
