If you are tired of your for profit national corporate bank screwing you over, join me and 65,000 others in bank transfer day.

For me, I will be closing my chase account because of the new $25 "maintenance" fee if you dont keep atleast $1500 in the bank or have direct deposit. Fuck That. I am lending MY money to them INTEREST FREE that they make money on and they have the audacity to charge me? I feel like I must maintain atleast $1500 every month and it is locked up. Fuck that, Fuck this, Fuck it all.... Im going to a local bank.

doesnt matter, i over drew once of 8 dollars. explanation BofA said they will stop any transaction if you do not have the funds, netflix took 8 for a monthly payment and i got charged a bank fee of 36 for the overdraft 5 days later got charged another 36 for the same overdraft. they say its a one time deal. but i didnt find out till i dug into my bank record to see what i spent for the month which is when i found out. no warning no statement in the mail nothing. just a F you we'll take money and not tell you anything unless you go dig for the answer. screw BofA im out and my money will go else where on that day. i was gunna pull sooner but found out about the 5th and thought id help make an impact! add one to the 65,000. here i can 4 days left!

Yeah I've heard nightmare stories about overdrafting...good thing I've never had to deal with that issue.

But I mentioned this news because although it doesn't matter to you, it does matter to other people. My lady was set to switch banks when they announced the fee, but today is is thankful because now she doesnt have to go through the trouble.

The Revolution...
I've always heard that it wouldn't be televised.

I'm pretty sure that if the idea is out there, its what the banks want you to do.
think about it

You really don't think this wall street thing would be allowed to continue if they haven't found some way that they could profit from it. Getting you to do something like this is only phase one in their super secret plans for control of middle earth.

I'd participate if I belonged to a bank. I always thought it was better to go with a credit union...guess I was right, huh?

yes but the problem with credit unions is that they are local. i move often and it would be very inconvenient to have to go to a new bank everytime i relocate.

if u put a few 1000 in the bank, you get the fees waived. but yeah, banks taking $ to hold your money is a scam. they should jsut tell people they won't accept account for folks with under a certain amount of $. I can see that people with a low balance are a loss, they waste teller time over small transactions.

Thats the issue man, they dont care if you use the bank. well they do, but if you didnt go at all and they gave you that option they would make no money. this is a scam cuz they dont have the money for everyone taking their money out. there for they charge you a fee if you dont meet the standards. this is how they make money now. they cant keep loaning people money if they dont have the money to give the new loans.

The guy that made the video i posted did a very good job if yall would watch it it really explains everything that is going on right now, why we have people clogging up streets all over America and Marines getting injured by the police (that are suppose to protect us) ... i was in the navy and with that said i was a corpsman. i served my whole career with the marines. They are my brothers and sisters and after serving two tours in Iraq, just to come home and get injured worse then you might have out there is ridiculous!!!!
