Do not bank with Fifth Third Bank. I have dealt with their bad overdraft practices in the past and watch my account daily to ensure that I Do Not overdraw my account.
Well it happened again when they did not post my pay from Friday when I deposited it on Saturday until Tues the next week. Since only $100.00 was available on Tues I overdrew $13.00. Even, though my on-line account indicated that I had $77.00 available balance.
They charged $111.00, $32.00. I deposited $200.00 to cover and overdrafts and I looked at it the next day and I had 3 more overdraft fees and still a negative balance.
So, DO NOT check your account on-line. They trick you by showing an available daily balance when that is not the case. The girl at the bank said that I should be using my checkbook transaction register and not the internet banking balances. Give me a break.
It never makes sense when they try to explain. They change the order of the transactions so that they can charge more and take as long as possible to post your deposits.
For this mere what they told me was a $13.00 overdraft, I have paid over $250 on overdraft fees. It's a scam if I have ever seen one.
I don't even want to think about how much of my hard earned money they have stolen from me. Whatever happened to your card not allowing a transaction if the money is not there. It's gone, because this is such a lucrative business for the bank to charge these fees.
