Webster Bank Bank Account Or Service Complaint

Checking account Account opening, closing, or management

Webster Bank Bank account or service department,

Checking account Account opening, closing, or management Connecticut

I have accounts with the Webster Bank, but the bank has not treated me fairly. The bank has either used other institutions some of which they are connected with through various services such check writing. When you need a check, the bank tells you that they will order them for you at a fee. Recently, I ordered a bunk of checks at $26.00. The Bank returned the payment and charged my account a fee of $37.00 despite having money in the Saving account. Now instead of paying $26.00, I will buy their checks for $62.00. Because the bank controls this transaction and they know I cant put stop on it, They want to hit my account several runs to charge me as much fee as they can. A $26.00 will soon be hundreds of dollars. They did this previously and I ended up paying over $650.00, and $160.00 just by playing some payments I could not control. I asked them and complain about this behavior, but they told me that they are doing it because I have bad relationship with them. I dont owe the bank any money, neither has the bank given me a loan that i refuse to


job!. They say I cant open account in other banks because they have already reported me that I am a riskier customer because I owe them money. This is true because I went to open an account with a credit - Bank, but I could not because Webster Bank had reported that i owe them over $1000.00. This happened in - -. This is bad for me, my family and in so doing, the bank means that they can have me to charge any money, and I do nothing about it. My direct pay goes to the same bank ( Webster Bank ). All the fee the bank charges my account is enough for me to pay my student loan. Sometimes back, the bank paid $95.00 to a company I do not know without my permission. When I asked them to refund the money, they have not to-date. The told me to close the account and open another. Any time they excessively charged my account, they will force me to close and open another one. They will pick me money from my saving account without my permission to pay for these charges. They will not even inform me. I need help. I want the bank to remove my name from the bad reporting agencies or whatever they call them and refund all my money even the closed accounts they forced me to close.
