PNC Bank
Swindlers, Liars and Thievs

I opened a checking account with them on 8/24. The account was closed by PNC on 9/5 on the ground that I have deposited two "counterfeit" checks. There was not a single withdrawal between these days, only deposits.

In fact, two out of seven checks bounced because of the date (90 days old) of which one was not old when it was deposited. Of course, the charged me a fee for both checks and refused to refund it even after I have provided a written notice from another bank that there were not counterfeit checks, but online billpay checks, just 90 days old. What's more, they said that 'the account owner requested a stop-payment on these checks'. So the checks are counterfeit, but there is an account owner and he requested a stop-payment on its counterfeit. Sounds funny enough, doesn't it?

So they just stole 24 dollars from my account, that's all. They said that they cannot issue a refund, 'because the account is closed' (so who closed it?), that they're not going to refund the fee for attempting to deposit counterfeit checks (after they've already received a written proof of different!), that there was a stop-payment and on and on and on...

When I opened the account, I was not explained the fees, the fee schedule was neither in my welcome kit, nor in the 24-page service agreement, there was no time to get acquainted with everything since the checks were deposited when the account was open. They act like con-artists, taking you money and throwing you out.

If you are still banking with them, thing again. I would recommend to close you accounts with them and to switch to another reputable bank ASAP, before you face surprises.insolent liars cannot be trusted and should not be tolerated!
