Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION

Complaint narrative:
The company is Regions Bank. They charge my account {$36.00} per overdraft up to {$100.00} per day. My account is set up for direct debit and pre authorization debit card charges which are in most cases less than that. I am being billed hundreds of dollars per month in overdraft fees. I finally terminated my standard overdraft protection plan but still would like a refund of the overdraft fees I paid over the past few months. The overdraft fee is exorbitant and in most cases unintended on my part. This has been going on since I opened the account over a year ago and I would like a refund or reduction of all the overdraft fees paid.
