thtas fucked up shit
got any stashes to live off of?

Furious_Female 12-28-2006 06:17 PM

Wow, sounds like they were just waiting for a reason or an excuse to close this. Unreal. Ever since 9/11 and the Patriot Act, banks are using it as an excuse to do all sorts of invasions of property and reasons to snub your business.

From now on, I'd stick to banks that aren't national or have ridiculous policies and nazi employees. Find a few smaller banks in your area and spread it out. I hate how much power banks and other major businesses in the US have. Especially when they have you backed into a corner and you didn't even do anything wrong. :disgust

What the fuck do they think someone like me is gunna do with their card??

Buy groceries with it?

yes but a year ago there was no law saying it was illegal for US citizens to use their credit cards for online gambling. amazing that they make a law against their people when they can't control what an industry does.

in most states it is illegal to do so without their permission - try to get them to agree to being recorded - good luck.

Furious_Female 12-28-2006 06:20 PM

PS. I'd have an attorney contact them. You will just get the run around and passed off to hundreds of people and still not get any answers.

I would record the conversations just to keep a record for discussions with lawyers :2 cents:

Chances are they have a recording at the beginning of the call saying they might record the conversation for quality assurance. If that's the case I think he's allowed to record as well.

The only change is that it is now illegal for US banks to move money into gaming sites. If anything they broke the law.

depends what state he's in - when i checked it out it varied widely - i guess he'll be talking to his lawyer anyway.

Ugh, sorry. Years ago we had *all* of our personal and corporate bank accounts with Bank of Am and now we only have 1 left with them. We hate them with a passion. Wachovia has been very cool though.

emthree 12-28-2006 06:33 PM

I'm scared now. That is total bullshit.

DatingGold 12-28-2006 06:38 PM

Bank of America is a bank for the masses. Stand behind 500 illegal aliens in line its a joke. Go to a bank where you get the treatment you deserve. My bank sent me a badass gift for xmas and thanked me for being one of their top 100 depositors.

BofA has fucked up so many times its insane. and Whether you have $5million in your account or $50 they treat you the same cause they have no idea how to handle a real customer. 99 out of 100 customers there probably have less that $5000 in their checking or savings.

DirtyDanza 12-28-2006 06:41 PM

us bank http://usbank.com is Danza certified and I think we should make them BP4L certified as well... hit me up via ICQ on that and some other things as well...

Catalyst 12-28-2006 06:46 PM

fuck that.. a lot of adult people are with BOA..

Incorrect, only in these 12 states is it required that both parties give consent, the other 38, only one party needs to give consent (That party being you):

California
Connecticut
Delaware
Florida
Illinois
Maryland
Massachusetts
Michigan
Montana
New Hampshire
Pennsylvania
Washington

Joesho 12-28-2006 06:55 PM

Damn dude, I hope it all goes better for you

that sucks donkey balls!

RawAlex 12-28-2006 06:56 PM

Boneprone, considering the type of money you have claimed to be betting, you can be sure that you set some flags off in the past little while. By law now banks are not permitted to help you gamble offshore, and some are taking more aggressive actions than others.

For what it's worth, the bank shutting you down is likely the least of your concerns. I would be more worried about the feds or the IRS coming to knock on your door to see if you have declared all your "winnings".

Good luck dude.

BusterBunny 12-28-2006 07:01 PM

that place sucks from top to bottom
 
had a 6.5 foot black man close my account at bank of america, without showing id...for a school paper :) ......was only like $100 but i am mabye 6 foot and white as hell(i was in line right behind him and they were none too happy when i walked up and told them they just gave my cash to someone that wasn't me)

sicone 12-28-2006 07:03 PM

SomeCreep 12-28-2006 07:16 PM

Phil 12-28-2006 08:03 PM

this is fucking scary. our business acounts are all with bank of america. time to move?

Ramos 12-28-2006 08:07 PM

I am not a BOA fan, they cut me off one time in Toronto right when I was paying for a sushi dinner. (very embarassing) They claimed its procedure and my card could have been stolen since I lived in cali. Even after I called them the week prior and informed them that I would be in Toronto on business.:Oh crap

Fuck BOA:321GFY

GO Trailblazers!:winkwink:

I've always liked Sam Bowie :1orglaugh and kevin duckworth:1orglaugh

"We have been montoring you and you have been engaging in illegal activities"

Then she told me Gambling was Illegal......

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON??????????

I'm sorry this bullshit has to happen to you. I actually work for BofA and just finished a banker class about why this situation has to happen to accounts (you wouldn't believe how simple some of the shit is). I think the majority of it is bullshit. If I was working there longer I might be able to provide some kind of help, or if you want you can e-mail me the name your account is under (and state opened) I can have some of my people look into it - or at least find out what the normal outcome is.

On that same side note - I used to work for Wells Fargo. If anyone has accounts there that have a problem (business or personal) , or you want/need special attention drop me a line as well. I know bankers and managers who will provide it and not ask too many questions. Even when processing lines of credits,loans, or mortgages involving self employment they great to deal with.

a gambling addict has a bank account and is continually moving around 10's of thousands of dollars to make illegal sports bets and gamble in online casinos, both of which are illegal - and the bank is concerned... and somehow that strikes you as being odd?

you might worry about whats next. i seriously doubt the bank is your biggest problem right now. i don't see any possible situation where they suspect illegal activity and take direct action without reporting it to authorities at the same time.

Dammit, will you quit agreeing with me! People are going to think we plan this shit!

There reading this thread
Is there a car parked outside your house

warlock5 12-28-2006 08:21 PM

I look at this the same way as domains and hosting -- diversify. Use credit cards from different companies that aren't your bank. Keep business accounts at banks different from your personal accounts, and so on. Yeah it can be a pain in the ass, but I just don't feel right sucking the nipple of one company.

Kimmykim 12-28-2006 08:23 PM

Some of you need to read up on the Wire Act of 1961. Gambling on the internet -- ESPECIALLY sportsbook gambling -- is illegal if you are a US citizen.

This isn't new and has nothing to do with the new law.

Some people contend that since the actual bet takes place on servers overseas, gambling online from the US is not illegal. The new law to prevent the funding of accounts with US bank accounts makes this loop hole purely academic.

Myst 12-28-2006 09:45 PM
