Wachovia
I was charged with $245 of Overdraft Fees without being Overdrafted ripoff

On 06/14 I was charge $140 overdraft fee when my account still had $4.58 left. The next day $40 was deposited and further transactions occurred that the $40 would have covered if not for the first $140 fee. A total of $245 has been charged to me in fees. I've just realized the error today (7:08 AM, 06/25, a Sunday) because I was checking if my pay-check had cleared. This is more than just an inconvinence, my rent & utilities is due in 10 days.

As a matter of full disclosure: Yes, this is not my first time overdrafting; I have in the past overdrafted with wachovia (assumed it was my fault,) and accepted reponsiblity to pay. I found the fees to be outragous and was in the process of closing my wachovia account. As a matter of fact I had tried to redirect my direct deposits to my other bank account however failed to do so in time.

Here is an unedited (copy &) paste of my online statement and I have saved a copy of the entire HTML page & screen shot:
