Wachovia
$877 in Overdraft Fees in 4.5 Months, Savings Account Lost

Hi. I just wanted to let everyone know that you are by no means alone in this. I have been with Wachovia for under 1 yr. I have just finished checking all my bank statements, and since they have crashed I have lost $877 in overdraft fees in the past 4.5 months alone (I had no fee issues prior to this time... They are starting to remind me of those "creatures" at Wamu).

Wachovia goes though this ritual with my money, accounts and deposits every week now, almost to the T. They hold my ATM withdrawals for sometimes 2 weeks, and just when my direct deposit is to post they flood my account with activity, and then eat up my new work check with fees.

It's actually becoming dangerous. As a young woman in NYC, I was unable to take a cab home from JFK NYC airport at 1am because of this practice. Albeit I just got aid the day before, so I made and had the money... But Wachovia stole it all and stopped activity on my ATM card. I had to ride 1.5hr on the subway with questionable nightdwellers. It's really evil. I feel like I'm working for nothing.

I have gotten the same run around with the corp reps, who don't even attempt to explain. I have gone into the branch to only experience more of the same... Except beware they have begun to charge me fees for speaking with branch tellers.

PS they have also lost my savings account, and removed my overdraft protection. I have my initial contacts w / signatures showing the details of my account. However, they just blatantly ignore them stating that "their system shows I never had a saving account or overdraft protection." I know others experiencing the same. I am closing my account this week.
