I received a new/replacement debit card in the mail from Sovereign Bank and called the number on the card to activate it. When I called the Sovereign bank representative kept going on and on about Sovereign Bank's Identity Protection program. I told him numerous times that I was not interested in such a program and just wanted to activate my new debit card. Since then I have been charged $12.99 a month for the last 6 months and due to those eroneous charges and have overdrawn my checking account several times - not only was I charged the $12.99 monthly fee but I was also charged $35 3 times because of the overdraft charges that resulted in the overdraft protection service that I NEVER AGREED TO! I never activated or used the service because I was not aware I was enrolled in it untill I happened to notice it on my bank statement. I feel I was illegally charged for a service that I never signed up for or agreed to and I hope other people that have been taken advantage of come forward so we can put a stop to this scam.
