The Absolute Worst Bank
My ex husband and i opened an account 4 years ago and my father did to. we banked online my father didnt. my husband started noticing weird stuff deposits there and then not there. i thought he was just seeing stuff, until i noticed car payments posting and then falling off our account and having to pay again. when i called they told me bs excuses the atms arent accurate then the online isnt accurate and told me to keep a ledger which i already was and it wasnt matching up to my account,the last straw was when we paid bills first that they kicked back and they ended up coming out last and getting returned. causing fees on both sides. when they were paid first. we ended up 400$ overdrawn because of bank fees. so they said if we filled out this form for a fresh start that they would allow those bills to go through that was a lie they ended up kicking them back 3x piling up almost 100$ in returned payment charges on both sides. the other creditors after ti told them what happened reversed the fees. we went back to chase. then my dads account started acting the same way. i went out of the country. no one knew there was a problem until i called to get the hold off his account they told me that they closed his account for being overdrawn 45 days which is impossible he gets paid every 3rd. so i started going through statements and realized he was 1.47 negative and the bank hit him with6 od charges back to back and surcharges he was almost 300$ overdrawn in fees he went to the bank and pulled out 400$ becasue the atm receipt didnt reflect that, the went 600$ overdraft they hit him with 2 more fees and closed his account. then they sent a letter15 days later threatening him saying the reported him to chex systems and if he didnt pay hed be sued and have leagal fees yet no one would tell him where his retirement check was and it was a friday before a monday holiday so all weekend no way to get food, or medicine or pay bills taht were already late. when you try and complain the literally argue with you so much the make you feel liek its your fault and refuse to help. its robbery. they dont charge od fees with the purchases they waint until your next direct deposit and start pulling out and you never know what the cahrge is for they keep you confused and feeling like its yoru fault when theya are playing with your money its. its criminal
