Wachovia Bank
Merchant Debits at $7.95 Continue, Bank Refuses to Block Them

A company set up automatic deductions on my account with Wachovia (after expressly agreeing to NOT charge anything). When I asked Wachovia to prevent future $7.95 charges (and also a $35.00 PER ITEM "bounced check" fee, when applicable), I was informed that they REFUSE to cut off the other company from my account. My remedies are to 1. Get another account and close the first one, or; 2. To pay $30 to "stop payment." Of course the "stop payment" only lasts 6 months, and the company can thereafter again set up payments without my permission.

Upon further investigation, it turns out that ANYONE who gets your check (even without an agreement from you) can thereafter electronically debit your Wachovia account. You can thereafter contact the "fraud department" to get "help" with your situation.
