Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Managing an account — Banking errors
Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute on my account for a transaction in the amount of {$780.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. My claim was denied 4 times for bogus reasons. It wasnt until I filed a complaint with CFPB I was notified by BBVA by mail which is now PNC that they were investigating the claim & would issue a provisional credit & any fees assessed on the account would be credited it back to my checking account ending in XXXX once the claim was final. I noticed on the BBVA 3 fees were reversed. I called to inquire why only 3 fees were reversed since there were a remaining XXXX ; I was told the remaining XXXX fees for {$38.00} each would be credited back to my account once the claim was final. Since then they have found another way to defraud me in retaliation of my complaint to CFPB & have sent me another letter indicating they will be debiting my account for {$130.00}. Had this claim been processed on my original request I would have never been charged {$38.00} for any transactions because it wouldve have been well enough money to cover all of the debits that were presented. This has been discussed with several representatives who ensured that all of the fees would be refunded once the claim was final. The claim was finalized on XX/XX/XXXX. I called today XX/XX/XXXX to inquire about the letter, I was on hold for 1 hour & 30 minutes & was transferred four times. Finally a representative in what PNC calls core department, I was told theyre not refunding me any fees & theyre debiting my account an additional {$130.00}. In all I am still out of {$780.00}, including never receiving the merchandise purchase since XX/XX/XXXX & {$1000.00} in bank fees. They have even blocked my access to my BBVA app to review any bank statements, & communication letters. Each time I try to click on statements for both the PNC app, & the website, its buffering & will not allow me to view any transaction history. Its been this way for 26 days.

Complaint narrative:
I bank with Direct Express because Social Security send my money there. I have had no luck getting them to transfer my money directly to the card that I pay my bills with.they said they could do it but I still couldn't get it done because they couldn't help me. I told him I was having troubles with their automated service. Still no help. I spent hours trying to work with them but they have the worst customer service ever. I went a different route and have my money going directly to a different card now but the Social Security agent told me that a lot of people complain the same complaint. Their automated service hangs up on you and takes you in circles and other strange things. The customer agents are hardly helpful and in fact I actually spent hours getting nothing done and 9 phone calls that's today.. I can't pay my bills with this account and I have to transfer my money to my other debit card. They couldn't help me. A video recorded my last call with them. It was almost an hour long call and I let the supervisor that I finally got know that I had been documenting the entire call and she hung up on me. I was irate and that was why I was recording my whole process. I do have a video but I can't upload it. I just took a screenshot of my phone calls. You can try that number yourself and see how it is. I'm on Social Security and have a XXXX and don't need to be going through this kind of XXXX. Neither does all the other people that get their money the same way.
