SunTrust Banks, Inc. Credit card department,
Unsolicited issuance of credit card Maryland
My wife was in a branch of Suntrust Bank to pick up my debit card that accidentally left in the ATM machine. When she stopped at the branch to pick up my card, the branch manager and bank teller asked my wife if she wanted to earn cash back on our debt cards. She said, " talk to my husband, he handles all of that. '' They did n't take no for an answer, asked her a couple of questions like " where did you go to high school? ", etc. With that very basic information, they opened - credit cards, - in my name and - in her name. I had no idea that this had happened, until my credit monitoring service alerted me that an account had been opened. After learning that these accounts had been opened, I immediately tried to find out how this happened, because at first I thought it was identity theft. I later found that it was n't identity theft, but it was the people at the bank branch, that opened an account and NEVER even spoke to me. With that tiny bit of personal information about my wife, they claim that it was appropriate that they opened - new credit card accounts, - in her name and - in my name. Now, I 'm trying to get the account closed and removed from my credit report, but I am having a very difficult time.
