BB&T Financial Bank account or service department,

Other bank product/service Making/receiving payments, sending money Maryland

CLAIM AGAINST BB & T, WHICH THE CFPB REGULATES, FOR VIOLATION OF CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS In - 2014 ( my dispute with BB & T has gone on for months ), I called the Fraud Division of BB & T and reported criminal activity on my account. - Sunday, I found myself locked out. I called the office of a company which purported to be in the locksmith business. I told the dispatcher that I needed to have my front door opened and a mailbox key made. He told me that the price for the work would be $120.00, which I agreed to pay. However, when the locksmith finished the job, he presented me an invoice for $440.00 and threatened me physically if I did not sign the invoice. Under those frightening circumstances, I signed. I may have gotten a few facts wrong when I reported this incident in my initial letter to the bank, but I was so traumatized by these events that I had to process them with the help of a psychiatrist, and I shook each time I discussed them.


property and had threatened them physically into signing an invoice several times greater than the amount that they had agreed to pay.. Four or five months into this debate, BB & T insisted that I provide the bank with a copy of the police report. I went to the Police Department and requested a copy, but they could not find it in their files. The Department 's failure to produce the report was not terribly surprising to me since I had filed a prior complaint with the Department on a totally different issue and they could not find that report in their files either. I have exchanged several letter with BB & T 's Assistant General Counsel - - on this issue. She insists that I produce a copy of the police report before she would refund the $310.00 that BB & T had deducted from my account. I have explained to her numerous times that I did not sign the invoice voluntarily but only because my life was threatened. I also told her that I refused to be penalized for the carelessness of the Police Department in maintaining its records. This is a case where a bank is oppressing a customer - simply because they have the power, and the customer has no power. I hope that the CFPB can help me get my money back. Many thanks for your assistance. Sincerely - - - -- Landline : - Cell : -
