Checking account Problems caused by my funds being low

Checking account Problems caused by my funds being low Delaware

On - -, an amount of $220.00 was moved from my checking account to my car loan with Suntrust. This was not initiated by me. I later found out from a Suntrust phone rep they moved these funds themselves. Because they did not notify me this was done, I processed a payment at the same time, also for my car payment ( the only thing this account is used for ). Given the payment was made twice, I received an overdraft and an extended one - due to a payment I did n't even initiate. I called to rectify this and was told it was no problem, to simply dispute the payment from -/-/-. I stated several times that I was fine with the payment itself - it was going to be paid to the car loan eventually, it just was n't fair that I was n't given the chance to reduce my payment, as when I made my payment that was the available balance. I was told the dispute was the only way and would return the - fees. It did not. I was then issued a temporary credit, which I of course paid right back to my car loan in good faith, as, again, all I wanted were the fees returned to pay them to the car loan as well. Instead, the temporary credit was removed, and I received - MORE fees. Well I call and spoke a manager, -, he stated he could not help. I asked for the address for executive relations and he stated that did not exist. Why are you actively making it more difficult for your customers to pay your own bills? This is a ridiculous business practice that you can not see that the right thing to do would be to return all - fees - and then give no way to escalate higher than low level management.
