Checking account Account opening, closing, or management Pennsylvania
First National Bank took over Metro Bank. Due to the level of customer service I received, I made the decision to close my account. Prior to closing my account a recurring payment caused my account to be overdrawn, to which I was charged substantial fees. I went to the bank in person on - -, 2016 and closed the account. The account was brought to a zero balance. Without my knowledge or consent, on - -, 2016, the account was reopened due to a recurring payment of -. Now, as of - -, 2016, my account has a negative balance of $68.00 due to overdraft fees, many of which are being charged every three days. I was not made aware that this would happen nor that they even reopened my account, so how would I have known that I was even overdrawn and that fees were being applied? This is unfair and deceptive to myself and other consumers. I called to speak with a manager located at the - - branch in -, PA, who was very snippy with me even when I said that I would be filing a complaint with the CFPB ; her response was " If you feel the need to do so, go ahead. '' It is important to note that when the account was closed, I was never made aware to cancel my recurring payments. I assumed that like other companies ( Such as - ), I would receive an email stating that my payment information needed to be updated. Never did I imagine that a closed account would be reopened without my knowledge.
