Approximately XXXX weeks ago, I was traveling out of town on the weekend. I tried to use my Bank of America XXXX credit card. The charges were declined. I have had this card at least XXXX years. I tried my Bank of America XXXX XXXX Card and it was also declined. The merchant called the Bank of America and I personally talked to someone and was told that I had closed my accounts. However, when I insisted that I had not closed these accounts, I was told that there is " something '' wrong with my citizenship and country of origin. During the next XXXX days, I spoke to XXXX different people at Bank of America, was put on hold for prolonged periods of time and transferred to multiple people and no one would give me straight and truthful answerbabout why my accounts were closed. Finally, the matter was resolved and my accounts were reopened but only after I insisted on talking to a supervisor. I was told that the federal government requires proof of citizenship in order to continue my credit card services. I have had these credit cards since 2005. I have never had to provide proof of citizenship. 
Clearly, Bank of America is racially profiling me because of my last name and country of origin. My wife and XXXX, who are also on this account, with different last names, were never asked to provide proof of citizenship. I have other credit cards from other banks, which I have had for XXXX years, and I have never been asked for proof of citizenship. In addition, none of my colleagues or friends or spouse have ever been asked for proof of citizenship to open or MAINTAIN a credit card account. 
Clearly, Bank of America is XXXX profiling me!
