Complaint:
Over 4 months ago there was a transaction done through XXXX using the prepaid card I have through my job for the merchant XXXX in the amount of {$99.00}. That same night I canceled my subscription with XXXX and they issued a refund to prepaid card ending in XXXX through paypal for the canceled services. I was told to wait 30 days for the refund to hit my money network account. I still have not received it. I called XXXX to see what was going on and they not only provided documentation showing the funds were refunded to my bank, but they also sent me a timeline sheet showing when it was sent to the prepaid card provider ( Money Network ). I called money network to file a dispute for the refund because it did not go into my money network prepaid card. After Money Network claimed to investigate the claim, they denied it saying XXXX refunded it to my XXXX account which is not true, especially because of the documentation XXXX provided. Money network refuses to help with this situation and has my {$99.00} just sitting in one of their accounts somewhere. I need my money back asap. It belongs to me.

Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: AZ
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Other banking product or service
Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account
Sub-issue: Transaction was not authorized

Complaint:
We have done our banking at National City Bank then ( Name Change to PNC Bank ) for more than 20 years. We choose to close our safe deposit box in XX/XX/XXXX as we were planning to move out of state. We went into to local branch of PNC Bank ( XXXX Illinois XXXX. XXXX, XXXX, IL ) at the end of XX/XX/XXXX and retrieved all of our belongs from our safe deposit box, signed the papers with the teller closing the box and returned the key to the teller. I asked when we would get a refund for the unused time, and she indicated you do not get a refund. I did not agree but choose to move forward and not escalate the matter. Then in XXXX I received a notice indicating on XX/XX/XXXX I will be charge for a renewal ( letter dated XX/XX/XXXX ). I called on XX/XX/XXXX the number on the letter as instructed if any questions and talked to a XXXX. She indicated there was no record of closing the box. After a discussion the matter was escalated, and I was advised a different person would call me back about the situation. On XX/XX/XXXX a different person called me to discuss the matter. She took down information and advised she would call me back the next day after she talked to the branch. Today ( 1 week later ) she called back and indicated nobody in the branch would answer the phone until now ( yes, I said no one would answer the phone at a Bank during normal business hours ) but has now talked to the branch and the box is still open. I need to prove it was closed and send her that information. I could not believe I had to prove I do not have a key to the box and show papers that the bank never gave me, or they will charge my checking account. 

I do not feel the burden of proof is on me, when I have already done everything in XXXX I was supposed to do. The burden of proof is on the bank to prove they have an agreement that has not been cancelled. We signed the signature forms the day we closed it and signed the same forms on that day indicating the box would be closed. 

I would feel it is against the law for a business to bill more than customer for the same box. As I closed the box and they want me to pay and I feel they have re-rented the box to someone else, this would be against the law.

Company response to consumer: Closed with monetary relief
