It probably is Bank Of America. I just received a card that I applied for this week. The card was already activated by a sales associate earlier this week. Naturally, before they set the activiation they tried to sell a balance trasfer and one of the biggest legal worthless bank scams: credit card protection. I had to decline twice in the same phone conversation.
Now, they are telemarketing to get me to transfer a balance or try to debit me monthly for that silly credit card protection after I told them "NO". Yes, by signing up for a credit card they are legally allowed to call me cause we now have a business relationship. Why do they do this telemarketing crap and create a suspecion of a credit card fraud? Is it worth annoying your customers to make a quick sale?
If I want to do a balance transfer - I can easily go to their secure web site or a local branch and complete the transaction. Hey BOA - don't you have any respect for your customer and their phone privacy?
called tonight and caller ID said "MBNA" on it and this number. Very annoying. I didn't pick up the phone. Then googled the number and read this. :( don't know how they got our number it is unlisted and on the National Do not call list. We don't have any bank of America cards and don't want any. Going to block off the number using our call screening service with our phone company. I am so ready to change this number but my husband needs it for work calls. :(
