I was holiday weekend XXXX. By the time I was able to get to the bottom of this & find out that XXXX had charged my new debit card for seller fees ( and had given me at credit $ 59+ for Hurricane Irma. The amount for my monthly fees were {$130.00}. They also told me debit card are mid month cking accts are end of month billed for seller fees. I notified BOA and advised issue resolved. They stated that merchant got paid XX/XX/XXXX {$130.00}. They were going to take the temp credit out of my acct ending XXXX. NEVER DID.. XX/XX/XXXX They took the $ back from XXXX!!!
