Checking account Account opening, closing, or management Delaware
Hello, On -/-/2015, I opened a new checking account with Citizen 's Bank in response to a promotional offer I received in the mail. The coupon mailer was titled " NEW TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD? '' and offered a $200.00 credit within 145 days of opening the account ( as long as few basic requirements were met ). Several months went by and I still had n't received the credit. Multiple calls to customer service agents, supervisors, and the branch manager confirmed that all conditions of the promotional offer were satisfied - yet for some reason the credit was n't being applied. Since then I 've spent countless hours trying to resolve this issue with Citizen 's Bank - on the phone, faxing documents, and driving to various branch locations.
it to my file when I first opened the account. Of course, now they ca n't find any record of it! It 's on this basis they 've concluded they do not need to fulfill the offer. In the meantime, I continue to be charged a $9.00 per month inactivity fee - despite being assured that the fee would n't be charged while the account was in dispute. Apparently, I 'm not alone here either. A brief search online has revealed many other victims of this scam. Citizen 's Bank is clearly engaging in practices that are blatantly fraudulent and predatory. I 've hit the end of the road. Citizen 's Bank is simply refusing to honor their obligation. Please help!
