The 2015 Shutdown Thread
I thought I'd take a moment to try to get some fun out of the shutdown situation. So I'm starting this thread to see who gets the most shutdowns in 2015. For better or worse, I'm sure I'm not the King. One day . . . one day.
Don't forget, if you aren't getting shutdown, you aren't pushing hard enough!
For 2015, so far:
-Walgreens Balance Financial
-Atira/Coopera (7 of these! so sad - 3 CUs)
-Evolve (my payees are all blocked)
-HR Block Emerald
Past years, accounts I can remember:
Multiple MVDs, like, lots
Chase (cards and deposit accounts)
Suntrust Delta debit
B of A (cards and deposit accounts)
ELFCU + USPSFCU
It's early in the year, but plenty of you out there have more, I'm sure. Show us what you got!

Are you blacklisted @ Chase & BofA? Any worries about troubles getting business loans / mortgage further down the line ?

Chase, I'm back alive. I think I got killed off in 2013 and I have respawned.
BofA: they don't like the cut of my jib still. But they did spot me a signup bonus before taking my annual fee and telling me to hit the road recently. No complaints.

What did you do to get B of A shutdown?

One of my USBuxx got shutdown last week. I called CS and got no answer. Told me to wait for a letter from US bank. Not sure when I can got my 2K back. Just hope the rest of my USBuxx will survive.

Well, they never gave me a reason, but just letters (one for me, one for my SO) saying the accounts were closing as of a certain date.
We went in and closed them early.
I had two AS cards; she had one.
I'm sure it had to do with the way I was using the AS cards, but plenty of people were pushing harder than we were. Maybe because I had two?

For those of you who have gotten other family members' cards shut down, how have they handled it? I know my wife would have me sleeping on the couch for a while...

I try very, very hard to do most of this stuff without my wife's involvement. But, every now and then, she's happy to make a phone call to deal with something that's gone wrong in her name. And she likes F.

I never did more than probably $20K in a month - sounds like that was relatively tame.
