I went to BB&T to cash my paycheck because it is the bank that my boss pays us from. I went to the drive thru window, put my check for $325.00 and my drivers license into the tube. A few minutes later I recived my money and license back. I pulled forward to allow others access to the window and counted my money. $325.00 is what I recieved. This was on a Friday.
Two days later my boss calls me and ask me how much I recieved. After informing him of the amount, he told me that his account was $2925.00 less than it should be. He keeps carefull watch on his account because of past problems with BB&T and similiar happenings.
Later that week I am asked to contact a bank officer named Kim Kelly. She informs me that $3250.00 was withdrawn from my bosses account on the day I cashed my check. She also informs me that I have untill that afternoon to bring her $2925.00 or face prosecution.
After a long discussion with her in which I thought she understood that I only recieved $325.00 we hung up. My boss got his account straightened out after about a week.
Now about 3 weeks later I have been served with papers for small claims court. BB&T says that I owe them $2925.00 for overpayment of a cashed check???
BE CAREFULL IF YOU DEAL WITH BRANCH BANKING & TRICKS. Have a witness with you. If at all possible just stay away from them.
