Checking account Problems caused by my funds being low
Fifth Third Bank Bank account or service department,
Checking account Problems caused by my funds being low Pennsylvania
Went into branch -/-/15 ; made cash withdrawal of $610.00 before - ; next evening, -/-/15 after - called auto system to check balance ; I was given an amount of over $600.00 by the automated teller ; was assured by customer service agent that the amount of the balance quoted was correct and it was from my employment ; transactions were made ; I was charged overdraft fees all because someone in the branch did not do their job correctly and I was led to believe this money was available. If cash is withdrawn from an account, how can it still be there? I thought it was a bonus ; I do get bonuses from my employment. The amount of overdrafts reached an amount that was more than my next paycheck. The bank did take responsibility for part of the overdrafts but the fact still remains that I had to pay for someone else 's mistake. Why would it take over 24 hours for a cash transaction to post? My guess is someone was not paying attention. Just the month before I went to the same branch office and asked to withdraw the same cash amount from my saving. The same teller withdrew money from my checking account when he/she could plainly see that the amount requested was not in my checking account! I 'm standing right there. Could n't she have just checked with me to make sure it was the correct account? That time also I called to check my balance the next day and found my checking account overdrawn! This time when I spoke to a customer service agent I was able to transfer the proper amount of funds from savings to checking to cover someone else 's mistake.
