First National Bank of Pennsylvania Bank Account Or Service Complaint

Checking account Account opening, closing, or management

First National Bank of Pennsylvania Bank account or service department,

Checking account Account opening, closing, or management California

First National Bank had a summer promotion that included a $150.00 bonus when qualifying terms were met. On -/-/16, I opened up a checking account with them, with the intention of fulfilling the terms, collecting the bonus, and utilizing the checking account services. To my surprise, First National Bank contacted me and told me that this bonus offer would not be honored, my opening deposit was refunded, and my account was closed because I was not in their " Service Area ''. Unfortunately, this information was not presented at the time of the disclosure of the bonus and was nowhere to be found on their website. Although disappointed, I decided to move on. I received a second call back a couple days later, informing me that because the terms did not state " service area '' that they would be honoring the bonus. Although they did not redeposit my initial depsoit, they informed me that If i were to ACH deposit another $1500.00 ( to meet the terms of the bonus ), I would, receive the bonus as stated in the terms and conditions of this offer. Unforunately, I have not yet received this bonus, and attempts to contact First National Bank have been unsuccessful. I feel that my treatment by this bank, the information presented, and the back and forth of opening/closing this account has been unprofessional and unsettling. In addition, the terms of the bonus were met and have not been honored.
