Bank of America Hates Legal Citizens (Especially if they play poker)

BoA isn't INS. They're not an official government back, in case you didn't realize that. They'll do what's in their best interests, and if it includes taking business from illegals (which is no different from investing in a sketchy foreign market), then more power to them.

I could not believe it. What is this country coming too. I walked into a pizza shop the other day and the cashier asked for my SSN card as he was grumbling something under his breath about B of A and I just said WTF and walked out the door.

I think the point is that they are discriminating agasinst citizens. Why do I have to give my SSN? I don't want to. Other people don't have to. Why do I?

I do not like them too.So I made credit card which gives 0% APR for 6 months throgh referal site which gives me $40.
I balance transfered $10,000 to my saving account which gives me about 5.3%.I will make $300 off from them.It is small but better than nothing.It does not take much time.

OMG I just saw some suspicious dirty ferners building houses today.

LETS BOYCOTT HOUSES!

Wait, I also remember seeing the dirty people picking fruit and butchering meat!

LETS BOYCOTT FOOD!

They grow our food, build our houses, and now they're BUYING STUFF WITH CREDIT CARDS? WHATS NEXT?

We have to do something about this! Ima call all the cable news networks tomorrow and tell them about our vigilant struggle against the Evil Dirty People.

I see some potential illegals working on the roads a lot.
This is especially true when I go to Florida to visit my parents.
I'm going to boycot all roads.

Umm... you don't. Why do you say you do? Just because they ask for it does not mean you have to give it. At the college I went to they asked for it, heck many profs even posted test result by them! I refused to give it, they generated a different id to use for me in their systems. Same thing with my dl. When I went to get gas service they asked for it and at first refused service. When I refused to leave till they put that in writing, they gave me service. Once I had to fix some software installed at a DoE nuclear site. They asked for it. I refused. They had guns put to my head, I refused again. They asked if I was trying to pull something funny. I responded, 'If I was I would have just given you a fake one and not caused a scene'. They gave me and each other a real weird look and let me through.

Moral, Just because someone asks for something does not mean you have to answer.

Then why did they need a whole new program without the ssn specifically for illegal immigrants?

[twobitplayer]

Marketing?

[PLOlover]

So you're telling me anyone US or non US could could get a credit card with no ssn in the past, and can still get a cc with no ssn today.

Where does the know your customer patriot act stuff come into play then?

I am a huge hater of Bank of America.

This is the first decent thing they've done, that I'm aware of.
Thank you for helping to bring this to everyone's attention.
