Complaint narrative:
On XXXXXX/XX/year> I received an email from PNC Alerts that advised me due to an issue with my cell phone number, my profile for the XXXX money transfer service had been locked, advising me to call PNC Bank at XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX  ET. As I was in the process of moving and downsizing from a home to a condo that required a complete renovation and was in the process of preparing my home to be listed for sale on the market, I was not able to call until XX/XX/year> at XXXX XXXX. I was put on hold and advised my wait time would be 15 minutes. My call was finally put through to a service agent at XXXX XXXX. I explained the problem and the email to a female service agent. She went through the process of several personal identification factors to insure who she was speaking with. She advised she would have to put me on a brief hold to determine exactly what the problem was, I had most recently used the XXXX service successfully on XX/XX/year> to receive inbound money sent to me and deposited to my checking account. When she came back on the line she advised me that the XXXX service would no longer be available to me through PNC. I requested the reason for that decision at which point she became very rude and said she did not know why. I asked to be transferred to a manager so that I could get that answer, she explained that they would not know either. I advised her that someone would have to have that information and I was entitled to receive that as they were cutting me off from a money transfer service that all bank customers have. She advised me that she was terminating the call and hung up on me at XXXX XXXX.
