Compass Bank
Legalized Extortion

My mother wrote me a check for my birthday. I wanted to cash the check & was near the bank it was written on. I went into Compass Bank, the bank the check was written on. I handed the cashier the check & my driver's license. She told me that I would have to pay a $7.50 fee to cash the check because I did not have a bank account at Compass. I told her I banked at another bank & would not pay them $7.50 to honor a check written by one of their customers. I told her I had a check written to me that was to be drawn from their institution & I wanted her to honor that check. She refused unless I paid the fee. I did not cash the check. I refuse to give Compass Bank a dime to honor their customer's checks. The check was legal tender, written to me, & Compass Bank has a duty to cash that check.

I have written my US Senators, Representative, the FDIC, & the BBB. I am so sick of the legalized extortion banks are allowed to commit.
