Complaint narrative:
I requested provisional credit after filing a billing dispute about 2.5-3 weeks ago. The bank ( Found ) has been conducting their investigation and they repeatedly ask for more information even though Regulation E requires they provide me a provisional credit if the investigation will take longer than 10 days. This investigation has taken 15 days minimum so far. All I asked for was a provisional credit for {$120.00} after the company receiving the funds told me to talk to the bank to get them back. This is the worst banking experience Ive ever had.
