Great strategic advice there, but I was just responding to #61 by moovova and making a bit of a comedy sketch of it.
That I favor. All fraudsters of any stripe should be caught and punished.
When I went to close out my savings account at B of A, they told me I needed to make an appointment. I took out all but $10.00. Next month, they charged me $9.00 ‘maintenance’ fee.
Pretty scary when the government can just change the rules on a whim.
Amen!
Amen!
Thanks for the advice. Never had to close an acct on bad terms, but I knew there was probably a better way to do it rather than go into a branch raising holy cane. Your step-by-step is a great approach. Yes, you do have to be careful how you handle that. Banks have a blacklist.
Some idiot called me with one of these scams (tax). I kept on asking him what country he was calling from. He finally hung up when he figured I was not going to play his game.

I’m more respectful than you are. I start by thanking them for calling. I listen, then I ask relevant questions. I comment politely on everything they say.
Funny, but they always seem confused. Then they hang up after a minute or two.
Maybe that’s because everything I say is in Hungarian.
This happened to me last week. Teller asked my why I was making the withdrawal. I found it strange. I just said “business”. I think it was Chase bank.
Hahah... I Necroed this thread! Just realized I had something in the search bar. lol Good day.
