Washington Mutual Bank
They wrongly accused me at knowing of counterfeit check wrote to me

Business & Finance

I received a check in the mail for 3950.00. I called the company it was a research agency it all sounded legit. So I went ahead and did it. Washington Mutual told me it would have to clear in 5 days. This was on a Monday that I deposited the check. Sure enough on Saturday the funds were available. My first thought was cool everthings went through were good to go.

So on SaturdayI took out a portion of the money to do the first job requested. Then I let the remainder sit there till like Wed the 15th. About a week later I recieved a letter in the mail something was wrong with the check at the amount of 3950.00. That I needed to contact the bank as soon as possible to resolve this issue. So I did. I talk to the Manager Manty.

At that point he starts to change his tone of voice like I had commited this crime. Like I knew it was fake. I told him look I have all the paperworkright in my hand. I also preceded to tell him I had checks out. What about them. All he kept saying was you owe us are money back. Kept saying I needed to come in to the bank right now. He was so abrupt with me. I thought mabye he was setting me up. To tell The police that I had purposely done this.

So I Finally got ahold of my husband told him what was going on with the bank how they were making accusations. When we got the bank. I set and tried to plea my case. All he kept sayin you owe that money and we will get it.in a very rude way. I told him what do I do my sons disability check is to be direct deposited on the first. Thats all the money I have to pay my bills. Again he said you can try to call social security but we will get that money.

I did I called Social Security Tried to get the deposit stop. I was 3 days to late. There cut of is the 17th. I called on the 20th. Now you know as well as i do by Manty's Comment he knew it was to late. Still though at that point I thought it would come in Check form. I waited by the mail box till the mail ran. I had even had bills extended waiting on the mail.

When it didnt come I had a bad feeling it went to the bank. I tried social security first they said call the bank. If aint there and you dont recieve it 3 Days call us back. Low and behold. I call the bank, again who do I talk to Manty. When I ask him if thats what happened to the check. He said yep, Now you only owe us 31something. I said Hey you mean to tell me I cant get any of that money.

I said I filed the police report you told me. His next comment was lets see what I do. Come on in here and lets work something out. He knew they wasnt going to give me that money. What he didnt know is my mom has turned real bitter in her elder age. I called her and told her what was going on. They made a couple phone calls and found out they cant take a goverment check for a bad debt. So I took her up there to talk to him.

Again I told you we would get our money, you owe it to us. My moms words was you will be hearing from our attorney. Now I have bounced 5 check from them freezing my account. They took my only form of income. The checks will go to the state within 15 days. Yet all I got we will get our money. I wanted to tell him tell that to four little boys you took from.
