My bank, Regions, charged me 140 dollars of NSF fees 10/19, for overdrawn items, that weren't overdrawn. They acknowledged that they weren't overdrawn, and they would not refund the fees or make the correction despite the evidence that the account was never overdrawn. After 2 hours of discussion on 10/20, they agreed to refund 50 percent of the fees($70). I agreed even though I was still out 70 for bogus fees. When I checked my account today 10/21, and they only refunded 25 percent($35). When I called to find out why they changed the amount, they informed me that I wasn't entitled to a refund and I was "lucky" to get the $35 back.

Regions stole 140 dollars from me and when asked about it.. acknowledged the theft, and refused to return the funds and claimed that it wasn't a bank error. I asked for documentation to support that it wasn't a 'bank error' and was first denied the documentation.. then after some discussion.. I was read a paragraph via the telephone, in which stated that the bank was allowed to charge an NSF for funds paid when funds in the account did not cover the item.

When I pointed out again that funds had been available in the account to cover said items.. I was told that there was nothing that could be done, and I would not receive a refund, as the "system" does not allow it. So I went from 70 refund, to 35 refund, to no refund. They took the 35 they HAD given me back and charged my account for it.

As i told them, if i -had- over drafted my account fine, I'd pay the fees, expect I hadn't. I wasn't even close. First millions of dollars from the president, then increased interest rates and fees for CC, and now banks are going after individual funds from account holders.. what's next?

We are part of the international group that was swindled by the Dennis Bolze family, the devastation it has caused deserves some action from the regularity bodies.


On behalf of the one hundred or so victims in the Dennis Bolze fraud case we would very much like to hear from anyone out there that thinks they can help get us a fair outcome to this distressing situation


It appears that banks (Regions finance etc) gave out million of dollars to the Bolzes even though they had no legal income! How could this be allowed to happen in a country like the USA. The Court has just given Regions Bank the house even though it was built with our money!!!

Bolze was on probation for tax fraud so we must wonder HOW, &what kind of deal he put together to encourage a large Bank to loan the Bolze family these vast sums of money ???

I viewed my online account with regions Bank to get my bank account balance. I've seen that an unexpeced charge that hit my account that make two debit drafts transactions in the negitive. Ok, I know there will be a fee at $35.00 a pop which total at $105.00. The unexpected charge was placed back into my account due to error draft made by another company I retained service from but had cancelled.

I reviewed my account and seen that they made my account in the red of $195.00. They added an extra $72.76 of return fees even thoe
there were money in my account to cover the drafts. I went to my local Regions Bank to see what is going on. GET THIS! I was told that since the transaction was pending process they also got hit for return fees. Even after I shown her my printout bank transactions online that all she says was pending did clear a day earlier before this all happened. She said, what it shows me online don't reflect actual transaction. WHAT???? You mean that my account view online with this Bank is giving me false information. I'm sure my money didn't disappear.

This bank will disregard your tansactions date and place NSF fee first to put you in the red (negitive) and make as much as they can on you.

After taking a 20.00 charge out of my account that I did not authorize, they took me for 270.00 in overdraft charges. I do not have a job right now and I'm drawing my unemployment. The money they took form me is more than the amount I get for 2 weeks of employment. Is ther anyone that can do something about this? I know a lot of other people that are having these same problems with them. Are they just allowed to do this to people and there is no recourse? If this is not unfair business practices I don't know what is.

regions has repeatedly applied overdraft fees that i dont deserve. then they tell me they can take them off if i fill out a form for visa overdraft protection. i'm tired of going to the bank again and again just becuase they're crooked. right now they have three more unfair fees at 35.00 each. cost me 245.00 total last week. any islams out they that needs a new protege'. serious!
