Company made two deposits to my acct of. 01 and later withdrew $30. I called company and they stated that someone had opened a check advance on line in my name. They stated that the $30 was their fee for searching for a lender for me. When I stated that I didn't do this, company tried their best to talk me into giving them more information to help my loan "go through". I asked for a refund and they stated one would be issued to me in 10 working days. They even provided me with a claim # stating that no further action would be taken on my "acct". I never received a refund but I kept getting calls from foreign sounding "customer service reps" stating that I had applied for a loan with their company and several emails from other check advance companies stating that I had an open acct with them. I never received a refund from this company, but my bank returned the charges. I didn't close my acct so in February and March another company called Money On The Net (which turned out to be an online shopping club) made charges to my acct. I did get my money back from them and they admitted that they received my information from a third party. They stated that the acct was opened in my name and claimed they sent a username and password to my email address. I never received those emails. I am now working with my bank again and will be closing my checking acct.
