Checking account Deposits and withdrawals South Carolina

I withdrew $4500.00 cash from my checking acct. two hours later I get a call from the bank teller asking me if I have the withdrawl firm that I signed in front of the teller to withdraw the money. I answered no and laughed. The next morning I checked my acct. online. My $4500.00. withdrawl was debited from my acct. the withdrawl slip was copied into the summary. It was the one signed by me. In addition there was a - withdrawl made on my acct. for an additional $4500.00 dollars, with a withdrawl slip signed by the teller. An additional $4500.00. was debited to my acct. giving me a negative balance. The late fees and charges started almost immediately. The next morning I was at the bank when they opened the doors. I asked to speak with the mgr. I was asked to have a seat as the mgr. called the teller supervisor to talk with me about


debited my acct a - time. The Mgr and the Supervisor both admitted knowing this but did nothing about the additional money being taken out of my acct. I asked if being off balance by $4500.00 at the end of the day was just normal practice and was greeted by blank stares. They agreed to put the $4500.00 back into my acct and would cover all fees charged to me by their bank but could do nothing about fees charged me by the other end '' ie all the bounced checks they were responsible for causing. About $240.00 was credited back to my acct by the bank. I have to say that once I showed them what they had done, they offered no apologies or even a good excuse. Neither the Mgr. Or Teller Supervisor would admit any responsibility and treated me like I was robbing the bank. I just received a returned payment charge this morning caused by this incident. I am going back to the bank this morning to discuss this. This has caused me a great deal of stress and inconvenience and now I 'm sure my credit worthiness is being affected. I am purely a victim if either incompetence, ignorance or maybe even criminal activity, and at very least my credit standing has been damaged. When I asked the Mgr if there was anyone above her that I could talk with she ignored me. She did not tell me bye, she did not apologize, she refused to even make eye contact ... ...
