    Default Custom bank card

    Pissed at WellsFargo now. I have been trying to get a card made with a custom image on it and they continue to reject it. I wanted a Gasden Flag on it but, nope. Rejected as political imagery and flag imagery. Ok, so I try again without the words. Nope, rejected. So I try this...



    And this...



    And this...



    All rejected as "political imagery". Fries me to have someone reject an important symbol from our history as inappropriate.

    I'm guessing they won't like this either

    Tell them you want to close your accounts and why. See if they let you have it then.

    How about Molon Labe

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Molon_labe.jpg (pic is 2560 x 1920 so I just posted a link and didn't put it in IMG tags)

    That's from the marble monument at Thermopylae, so you tell them its "Travel related".

    I'll keep screwing with them. Not sure I should base my financial institution on what picture they let me put on my card. It's just one more reminder that so many don't have any respect for our nation's history or how diluted and PC we've become.

    Good one. I might also try this one



    "Nemo me impune lacesset"

    Which means "No one will provoke me with impunity" or "no one attacks me with impunity". Comes from Scotland originally from what I can tell but I like the above symbol from 1778 in Georgia.

    Maybe you should base it off the fact they received $25B in bailout money. Time to switch banks, IMHO.

    If that is your criteria then you may be searching a while for a good bank. And not just the "main" bailout, but many other smaller bailouts before and since then.

    I'm a pretty happy WF customer (1st Bank convert years ago). In their defense, you have to keep in mind the kind of credit cards that would be out there if they didn't have the standard (like F*uck the USA or something). Sure to you and I those images are patriotic and tame but if they let that through then the guy who wants to put Muhammad slitting lady liberties throat would have a valid and LEGAL precedent to get their image too.

    If it's important to you to have it you might be able to find a pre-paid card company or even the visa gift cards that allow you to have images and then you'll have it in your wallet.

    This might be true, but I'm lucky enough to be a USAA member. Although my mortgage is through WF, but not by choice (originally a VA loan sold to WF). I would re-fi through a non bailed out bank if I could.
