Update: Bank Of America has responded to this viral video, saying that they are NOT banning gun purchases (at least not yet.)
Bank of America has decided that they are our lords telling us what we can and cannot purchase!

I will never have anything to do with Bank of America since they have stepped into the political realm.
I would say it time to cut up that card guys…
I have used a credit union for 45 years. Yes, I have a credit card from them, it’s also a debit card (debit at Costco gas stations). If I cannot pay for something, I do not buy it….oh, and cash is easier in the long run and there is less of a paper trail. It’s a fun surprise when you shell out hundreds of dollars in cash for a purchase. The register clerks almost don’t know what to do…..be careful when they give you change…..they’re not used to handling actual money.
Bank of America was the first bank to give credit cards to illegal aliens, starting in 1977. They claim it was to boost their revenue and get Hispanics to bank with them. These people had no identivication or SS numbers.

BancoDeMexico strikes again!
LOL good one. And speaking of Mexico; should our government try a severe prohibition; believe me all the guns that went to Mexico, and more, will flow right back across the border at premium prices to anyone who wants one. The gov. tried prohibition with alcohol and look how that turned out!
Actually it’s Bank of Italy but the sentiment is the same. Given that BOA is headquartered in the uber-stupid ‘Frisco, this is to be expected.
The Bank of Italy merged with the smaller Bank of America, Los Angeles in the 1928.[1] In 1930, Giannini changed the name “Bank of Italy” to “Bank of America.” As Chairman of the new, larger Bank of America, Giannini expanded the bank throughout his tenure, which ended with his death in 1949. Bank of America merged with NationsBank of Charlotte, North Carolina in 1998. While NationsBank was the nominal survivor, the merged bank took the Bank of America name and operates under the original charter for Bank of Italy.
Bank of America’s headquarters have been in Charlotte NC since 1998.
I am Hose A…let me get Hose B…
I have told everyone I know for years to GET AWAY FROM THAT BANK. But they aren’t the only one, whom I consider bad bets. If you are eligible , bank through USAA Federal Savings Bank, or better yet, join a military oriented Credit Union. But GET AWAY FROM BANK OF AMERICA.
this video does not really confirm anything, as the CS rep was not really sure what to say. I am going to test this out myself and video record my purchase attempt of ammo at Walmart with my BofA card. If it is rejected and I can also show a sufficient balance to cover the purchase in my bank account through online banking on my android, at the time of the attempted purchase, that would be more of a confirmation that it is really happening. Otherwise, BofA will just reduce the issue as a misunderstanding or system glitch like they did with the freezing of the small business owner’s account who sells firearms parts.
This video does not confirm the story.

Don’t worry about the illegals that have BA cards and DL’s they won’t lose a step, just all you legal citizens they can track and trace by government registration, you know who you are, you followed the law….don’t forget to pay your BA credit card charges now….
Well , If I can’t use my credit card to purchase guns and ammo from BofA then they can’t use the money I keep in their bank any more. It’s real easy to tell the teller to close the account and place the cash in my hands.
Of course the FACT that BOA screwed SO MANY people with their loan practices means NOTHING to anyone on here. It’s the GUNS. Gun Crazy or Just Crazy.
“Those who live by the Gun shall die by the Gun…”
Make sure you clean them before you hand them over.
Have a nice day
Well truth, it looks like you don’t think much about the 2nd amendment…You know what they say,,,if you don’t stand for something, they you must stand for nothing..so now we know where you stand…
Truth must be a democrap….
Dont trust ANY big banks.. They throw more money at their political causes of THEIR CHOICE.. seldom will that be moral or legal… Big banks are representative of the corruption in this country.
Use small community banks or credit unions.. Your money will be safer, and you wont be funding the globalist scumbags that have raped our Country.
there is more than one bank in this country
Change banks. But find out if another one will do as BOA did… You can leave your money there.. but just go to another bank and open an account or either draw the amount of money you need to purchase the gun or guns you want and pay in cash.
This is what Obama world is gonna look like folks,Obama wants to control every aspect of what we do and how we do it ,wait until it affects the liberals ,thats when it will stop.
