Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (MN)

Bank of America has decided to make banking decisions on social policy rather than on sound business decisions. How can banks deny banking services to perfectly legal businesses? 

With all of the highly personal information that banks collect ; how long before they start enforcing their social policy on consumers? I think the banks that had such poor policies that they required almost {>= $1,000,000} of US taxpayer money shouldn't be trying to push legal businesses out of business.

We need all banks to follow the laws that apply to they and not be listening to fringe groups that encourage them to break the laws of banking. Americans need you to come down hard on banks that aren't following laws and policies that are meant to protect ALL legal businesses and people in the USA.

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concern and frustration regarding the recent experiences I have had with your institution in attempting to open account. My name is XXXX XXXX, and I have been a long-standing customer for several years, which is why my recent experiences have been particularly disappointing. Over the past, I have made multiple attempts to open new accounts with your institution. Unfortunately, all of these attempts have resulted in significant delays and inconveniences, which have caused me great frustration and concern. The initial application process for opening accounts was straightforward, but I found that there were significant delays in receiving updates and responses from your customer service team. I often had to follow up multiple times before receiving any meaningful communication. On several occasions, I was informed that certain documentation was missing or incomplete, which further delayed the process. This was despite my best efforts to provide all required documents promptly. The repeated delays in opening the accounts have caused me considerable inconvenience. I had to reschedule important financial transactions, and the uncertainty surrounding the account openings has been a source of stress. 

I understand that unforeseen circumstances can sometimes lead to delays in banking processes. However, the frequency and severity of the issues I have encountered are not in line with the high standard of service. As a loyal customer, I believe that it is essential for your institution to address and rectify these issues promptly. 

I kindly request that you investigate the matter thoroughly and take appropriate actions to prevent such issues from occurring in the future. Additionally, I would appreciate it if you could expedite the process of opening the accounts that are currently pending, as the delays have already caused me significant inconvenience. 

I value my relationship with you and hope that this issue can be resolved promptly to restore my confidence in your institution 's services. I would like to outline the issues I have encountered about this late open account : XXXX XXXX Balance : {$170000.00}.
