After many, many years (35 +) with Sun Trust Bank, I have been told that they do not allow anyone other than LEOs to carry in the offices. Been OCing there all along and had many good conversations with the staff. No more.
Went up the food chain and received the same answer every time. They did not respond to me in writing, but rather through the branch manager verbally who also let me see her computer screen - no guns allowed except for law enforcement officers.
I am in the process of moving my accounts to 1st Union Bank & Trust who does not make that distinction/limitation.
Interestingly enough there was a bump in the road when I was at 1st Union yesterday where I already had 2 small accounts - the teller told me that it was against federal law to carry in a bank - his CHP instructor told him so. [head slap]
He has now been corrected by the corporate office (there is no such law) and the branch manager has welcomed me with open arms [pun intended]
The teller has apologized profusely. "No problem," I said and we had a nice conversation about taking legal advice from instructors and LEOs.
