Bank of America sings U2′s One

Posted by admin in Finance Tuesday, 15 June 2010 21:44 26 Comments

So proud of itself for successfully merging with MBNA, Bank of America takes one of the most beautiful U2 songs and changes the lyrics so it’s about . . . credit cards. And it’s maybe meant to be a joke. But the singer takes himself so seriously, that it’s not a joke.

    I don’t know if you can sue a bank for all its money, and it’s just a tribute. :P

    Bank of America got something like $45 Billion dollars in bail out money and now they do not give everyone a modification! I AM FIGHTING BACK! Please join me in this fight at United Law Group’s home page under the John Wright vs. Bank of America lawsuit in the comment section. See you there!

    My wife and I have decided to “shit can” this bank after they have lowered our credit limits and raised our rates without having ever missed a payment (they don’t want us to pay them off) so they will make it harder for those of us who pay more than the minimum and on time. If you really want one bank in your life; BOFA is not it!

    I don’t know why people are upset. Bono and BofA are both the same. Money grabbing scum.

    Point taken. I use a credit union and plan to never get a credit card again.

    @MsRosa88 It doesn’t affect them. The high interest rate they charge make up a million times and over for bankruptcies. If you really want to hurt the banks, use local small banks and don’t get credit cards, like ever. Love, Peace.

    This makes me so glad I included BoA in my bankruptcy. They deserve it for this song alone.

    I want to hear Bono sing about investing in Yelp or Forbes. Now that would rock.

    I can’t believe this kind of sacrilege is permitted – no, I can’t watch anymore.
