If what you say is so, and you notified the bank immediately -- that is, before any of your money disappeared -- don't just file with the FDIC. Get a lawyer to take the case on contingency and seek big punitive damages.
Also, I do encourage you to file with the appropriate banking regulator, but I can tell you now, they aren't going to do anything other than send your bank your complaint, and your bank will respond with baloney, and the federal agency will drop the case on the bank's say so without even considering that it is a pile of lies. It is kind of scandalous how they do nothing, but that is how it is. And the banks know it. (This is the voice of experience speaking.) You are on your own, except for your lawyer. Punitive damages can come to a very large sum.

Meanwhile, I just sent a scathing e-mail to Regions pointing out how I now know what slimes they are and will never do business with them, and I gave them the URL of your thread. I suggest that any reader who agrees Regions is handling this very wrong also send an e-mail, including the URL for this thread. Let the banks know this is not the old days, the bad word about them can get out fast and wide.
