Unbelievable: My account with BB&T has been closed for over a year and a half in May I get served a summons to court for bank fees on an account that has been closed since Jan. Of 2008. It is now July. A summons was served in May. At the time my account was closed I received a close check for $9,200.00. I have never received one letter or call telling me that I owed anything... If I owed how did I close out my account with $9,200.00.
I now have to go to court to show that my account was closed. I have called BB&T Headquarters in NC. I tried filing a complaint with Va Banking but BB&T is not registered in Va. So they do not have to follow Va. Banking Laws or Guidelines. Be warned used a bank or credit union in your state or you have no recourse. Withdraw your money. Now. From BB&T. I have been referred to a law firm of Glasser and Glasser. I keep being told when my court date is. No one will help me. I am told to hire a lawyer for $1,200 owed them. I have to get a lawyer at $350 an hour to fight fees of approx. $1,200.
This has got to be stopped by us. We are a free country but I have to defend myself against a law firm of 20 lawyers on an account that has been closed for over a year and a half. I have called everyone I can think of no one has answers. I have gone to the TV station and hopefully the story will surface. My next approach is the newspaper. Please spread the word about getting a bank that follows your state regulations. Withdraw your money from BB&T.
