Wachovia Bank
ATM Would Not Show Balance, Then $35 Overdraft Fee Charged

I found one of the tricky, underhanded ways Wachovia makes money of you is when you want to obtain money from your account, you use an A.T.M. Machine. I was not sure exactly what my balance was, so I asked the A.T.M. to display it. I was told my balance could not be displayed at this time by my Bank. Nice move on Wachovia's part, sure racks up the overdraft charges for them. I ended up having to guess my balance and overdrew my account by a couple of dollars.

Thus having to pay Wachovia $35 in overdraft charges.

Why can't Wachovia give me my balance from any machine when I ask for it. I am standing in front of a machine not a line-up in a check-out, there is no problem with me being embarrassed. I would prefer to be told I had insufficient funds than robbed of $35 in the name of Wachovia being benevolent towards me! What a lie and a farce, it is legalized thievery at the very least!
