I wanted to get my daughter some concert tickets the other day, and all of a sudden, my debit card was refusing the charges. I knew I had more than enough money in my account at the time, so it was a mystery to me as to why it would not go through. The next day I called my bank, and they told me of this mysterious 77.82 charge waitting to clear. I informed them that I had made no such purchase, and that this was a fraudulent charge.
Needless to say, I went to the bank after work and withdrew all my funds, because she told me it didn't clear yet. I also cancelled my debit card, and now have to wit for 2 weeks for a new one. She told me the name of the company was grant finders, and gave me a number to call. I called, and the foreign person answering the phone told me it was for when I signed up for iplan financial.
I curteously told her that I did no such thing, and that she had better not go through with the transaction.
Fast forward to today, and I called my bank to check my balance, and lo and behold, they did put the transaction through!
So, I called and called their number only to be told that I should call during business hours! This was at 9:30 in the morning! Well, finally about 10:00 am EST I got through.
Got the same foreign sounding lady, and proceeded to rip her a new one! I told her that if that money is not back in my account by close of business toay, I would cll the Pa. Attorney general, the BBB etc. She promised me it would be refundedin 7 to 10 days. I told her that was not good enough! I am fit to be tied! What else can I do? I have the bank working on it, but I have no faith in them, either.
