That’s common practice for all banks right? Between credit card debt and college loans they own them.
True, but they're not scolding me on the 2A, yet.

How is a concert more important ?Those Citi cards sometimes grant access to rock concert pre sales.
A firm's primary job is to transfer money from the customers and stockholders to those in charge of the firm.A corporation's ONLY job is to make more money. There must be some extremely politically-minded people at the top. Interested to see how their stock value is affected.
The first one seems redundant. The rest. . . . . spot check???? I bet they checked and they have, like, 8 gun shops as customers and figured this was a good idea.
Was watching That 70's Show at noon and Comedy Central told me they are for stricter gun laws. I'm for funnier shows. Seems neither of us are getting what we want.
Unless you are doing a mail order/online purchase and want some recourse against the seller if (s)he does not deliver as promised.Cash is King
THat f-ing line burns my fat Irish ass every time I hear it.here's the bullshit from the head of citi :"Chief executive Michael L Corbat told The New York Times that he himself was "an avid outdoorsman and responsible gun owner".
See Level 3 Transactions, upthread.im curious on how they would enforce it unless i am mistaken all they can tell is where and when and for how much
I was mistaken...wtfSee Level 3 Transactions, upthread.
They'd enforce it by terminating commercial banking relationships with any gun-related business who doesn't follow their rules. Guess they're nostalgic for the good old days of Operation Chokepoint.
It would be enforced at the vendor, not buyer, level.im curious on how they would enforce it unless i am mistaken all they can tell is where and when and for how much
If Citi can choose who to sell to than so should a baker making a cake.So Bigot Bloomberg's cheap dates, pimps, and madams, are all conspiring to deny free lawful practice of civil rights. They might as well put up the old signs for, "No Irish May Apply" outside the banks because it's the same sort of discrimination. If a baker has to bake a cake why the Hell don't these bailed out bankers have to accept lawfully paying customers?
What this really means is that merchants who want to supply Level-3 data to get the fee savings need to input their transaction information from a system using software that prompts them for the required information.
Comedy Central... Sounds like either false advertising or a bait and switch scheme to me...

Yes they can.Use it, once again, they can't dictate who sells what product to a client.

Citi hasn't (yet) said anything about restricting what consumers can buy, this policy limits what/how merchants can sell.I don't get the "cancel my card/account" hurr durr, it's the merchant who is deciding whether or not to include the info by whichever card machine they've chosen to use. It's the LGS ratting you out to Citi so they can save a few bucks on fees when instead they could just pass the fee onto the customer(a policy some LGS already use) which I for one would happily pay.
Personally, I go to one of the many great privately-owned small gun stores in NH, and ask them what kind of cash discount they can give. If they can come with ~10% of the best price elsewhere (including the all-in GoG price including FFL transfer fee), I'll buy local.That's right though, there's plenty of folks here who will drive an hour or so(probably coming close to negating the savings on gas spent) to a shop just to save $10/$20 on the price of a firearm instead of supporting their LGS.
So the gun store can sell a gift card that can immediately be redeemed toward the purchase of a firearm.
ETA: I'm going to write citi and tell them to consider restricting transactions for gay wedding cakes.
