US Bank robs money with fraudulent "fees"
Tuesday, March 04, 2008
I opened a business account with Colorado National Bank, which then became Central Banks of Colorado, which then morphed into Minneapolis based US Bank. I had the account for over 10 years before I decided to keep the account dormant and leave $500 in there.
Prior to doing that I called to verify that there weren't going to be any fees. I was told that they would remove a status that charged an analysis fee of roughly $16 per month, and move me to a free account status.
Then I neglected to read my statements,(who has time to read everything?) because some months later my account was moved back into the status where fees were charged every month. They also began charging a inactivity fee of $8 dollars.
Long story short, my account was completely drained of the $500 and was now negative $86 and accruing fees of $40 per day.
So I called the bank's number of 303-585-8585 which I have named the "US Bank go screw yourself hotline" and was told to contact the branch. I was given the wrong number that led to a different branch who could not help me. I finally was able to get to the right branch and that the US Bank Park Meadows Branch. I then spoke with a lady who said I need to speak with the manager, Joseph because she can't make refunds that large. I was placed on hold and then hung up on 10 minutes later. I called back and the manager was at lunch.
