Rearranging and fees
Capitol City Bank has charged me well over $5000.00 US this year ALONE! They have hard posts and soft posts so that when you buy something with debit it doesn't really come out immediately, just whenever the next roll over update is (usually midnight unless it's a weekend or holiday). They will then proceed to rearrange your purchases and order them largest to smallest allowing every single small payment to bounce and therefore charge you $30 fees for things that were purchassed first (sometimes days before) the larger item. They will not work with you in refunding these fees, we have been hung up on and cursed out on the phones. Every penny we have goes into paying overdraft fees because we cannot get caught up due to the fact that they rearrange things, I have even taken in receipts to show them that items were purchased days before and they say well the computers are in charge, deal with it. We have 3 children and it's almost to the point that we are going to have to go out and get another job to be able to payfor the fees because we just can't get out of the hole. They have even criticized us by saying well you obviously had enough to go and blow $300 at WalMart, Yes we did, but it's our business and half of it went into a gas card so my husband wouldn't rack up even more fees trying to fuel up the 3-4 times per week that he needs to in order to go to work so we can pay for these people's fees. IT'S NOT RIGHT! We can barely even afford diapers and formula for our two babies, how can we ever get ahead, it has got to be illegal. I dislike being treated like i'm stupid and we are going to lose our mortgage that they also hold because the money that's supposed to pay it goes into bounce fees. I checked and there are 10 today (Dec. 16, 2008), 10! On things that we paid with debit last Thursday (12/11/08) and were completely (and bounce free) cleared on 12/15/08.
