      I have had several major issues with this bank, with both personal and business accounts. I was accused of having a fraudulent settlement check from my old employer even with legal proof and contact from both lawyers they still questioned the check, but found out it was legitimate. I reached out to an area supervisor named **** ******** and she apologized but situations still arise. When I opened an account i was given closed account information which resulted in numerous returned deposits. The latest issue is that I went into the same branch filled out a dispute for items that I ordered during the Christmas holiday that never arrived. And when the time as up I was told that the person that opened the dispute didn't put in any information. So I asked them why would they wait 10 days to reach out and find out what was going on, one of the transactions that i disputed didn't post until 2/10/2023, but had an original posting date from December 2021 after they stated they couldn't find it and it sent my account into the negative, they said that they will adjust the charges for the overdraft due to this but I don't believe them. Too many issues with all accounts and they aren't holding themselves accountable just making it difficult to do business with them

      Complaint: ********

      I am rejecting this response because: I have contacted them even went into the branch and i spoke with a ******* that reached out to the ***** dept and they said that it was admitted by either the ******** or the **** that it was delivered to the wrong address, which i had already informed them of this matter when the dispute was filed, then there is the fact that there are several issues i listed and they olny seem to address a dispute, a ban k giving out wrong account info is very disturbing as well as the fact that im having all these issues over money that i earn or spend that should be protected. I was also told at the bank that **** would reach out to me last week and she never did.  Its just a bunch of epmty promises due to errors on the bank



      Sincerely,

      ******** *****
