FirstMerit Bank Bank Account Or Service Complaint

Savings account Problems caused by my funds being low

Savings account Problems caused by my funds being low Ohio

First Merit Bank has charged hundreds of dollars in inactivity fees. Upon realizing this, I decided to make a payment of $100.00 from the account, which would take the balance down to a minimal amount ( and, presumably, avoid the inactivity fees ). Most recently, - separate inactivity fees - $35.00 each, $70.00 total - which hit my account at the same time as the $100.00 payment I attempted, caused the account to be overdrawn. It does not seem right that they can cause my account to be overdrawn as a result of their fees. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
