So I check my accounts every morning (checking, credit cards, etc.) and yesterday I noticed about $400 missing from my checking account (Regions Bank) with no transaction indicating it. I figured something glitched out and it would resolve itself by the next day. I checked my account just now, and I have a charge for $395.62 that states "COLLECTIONS DPT DDAACTIVE". My account is not in the negative and I'm not late on any kind of payments.
I googled this and a Consumer Affairs page came up with a customer complaint stating: "We've had an account with Regions Bank for many years, and have never had an issue until recently. They have a new scam going where they take out money for an item, and then, place it back into pending. Thus, for the moment, charging you twice! They will then charge an overdraft fee for items that they have taken the money out for. We have averaged over $400 a month in overdraft fees due to the fact that Regions has mastered the art of manipulating bank accounts. We deposit an average of $4,000 a week and should NEVER have an issue with overdraft... Out of our other 5 banks accounts with various banks, we never have an issue except for the Regions account! They are master scammers and work hard at perfecting the art! STAY AWAY FROM THIS BANK!"
I called their customer service line and of course it is closed until 6am Tuesday 9/5. I will be out of the country from 9/3 to 9/10 so I can't even get in touch with them until the 11th. Anyone have any idea wtf this is?
