Got a gripe with Bank of America? Put it on YouTube.
Ben Frasier of Douglas, Ore. said in a YouTube video that he wouldn't make any more payments on a $30,000 personal line of credit unless Bank of America would let him settle up with a lump sum.
Bank of America wasn't interested in the offer when Frasier made it over the phone. But after he made his demand publicly, and it received some media attention, Bank of America made an offer that Frasier is happy with.
The video-sharing website has become an effective complaint department for angry customers willing to put their faces to a declaration of "debtors revolt!" Ann Minch of Red Bluff, Calif., did it first in September, when she refused to pay a credit card debt unless Bank of America lowered her rate. After her story went viral, Bank of America agreed to her demand. And Darren Bryant of Pensacola, Fla., won attention from the bank within four hours of "going YouTube" after he wasted 20 hours calling the bank to no avail.
Another person uploads a "debtors revolt" rant against Bank of America and other big banks almost every day.
