(Big) Banks Suck
- Closed by (big) bank account. They did not make it easy. Been with TCF(SUCKS) for 17 years. They embezzled more than their share of fees from me over those many years. The latest, was have to pay $10 a month unless you have $2500 in the bank, or do 15 debit transactions (why they want you to do something that costs them money IDK) to get the fee waived.
- First, I purposely waited until I was calm so there would not be too much of a scene. Didnt make a diff. The bank is open 7 days a week, so I showed up a little after 10 (when their website and posted hours said it opened) on Sunday. No one was there, drive-thru closed, doors locked. Waited 10 minutes, then called into online banking, had to fight a phonetree to get a live person who verified the bank should be open. As I was on the phone someone went in, so the online person called the bank and told me someone called in sick, the bank would be open in 10 minutes, to call back if it wasnt if I wanted to file a complaint. I told her that I did want to file a complaint, so I did.
- Went inside, told the teller I wanted to close my accounts and they told me to take a seat. Waiting 10 more minutes I was told to come to a window, gave my ids and waited. The manager told me I could not close one account as it had pending charges (I had withdrawn $100 two days before) and I would have to wait until Tuesday for the charges to clear. I asked how in heck could withdrawing cash bounce, it was absurd that were refusing to close my account.
- Came back, was able to close with minimum fuss, but the teller gave me a form for each account and demanded I sign without reading. I ignored the biatch and read it while she twice more told me to sign, that the rest was just for their own use. So I got them closed, except then the teller refused to give me proof my account was closed (said my transaction slip was proof) I argued a little with her until demanding to see a manager. The little twit went over, loud enough for me and other to hear expressed how silly it was for me to want proof. The manager told her to give me the top portions of the slips I signed, stamped 'ACCOUNT CLOSED'
All in all it took two trips, over an hour (and not using my bank for a couple weeks, stopping recurring autopays, traveling to and from that hive of skum and villiany ) to be free from those basteeds! Remember that November 5th is leave your big bank day and free yourself from these asshats!
