To whom it may concern,
I am currently shopping for a new bank as the fees from my current bank are getting too high. I was considering Fifth Third until I was informed that you have a corporate policy that prohibits anyone with a legally concealed firearm from entering your bank. Until this policy is changed I will not consider Fifth Third for my banking needs. In addition I will also no longer use any of your ATM’s for cash withdrawals.
I find the logic of these types of policies flawed at best, you have nothing to fear from the lawful citizens that you are barring from your banks.
Sincerely,
Greg Bell
