Complaint narrative:
Hello. Please read the previous email threads, though long, these are short in comparison to the number of times I've requested assistance from Regions by phone and in person, only to be hung up on, given a reference number that no other Regions rep would ask for or take to follow up on. The second from the last time I called on XX/XX/2018, the Regions rep at the XXXX number checked my account and saw no notes since I've called, no credits to loss funds by Regions who failed twice, maybe more, to apply STOP PAYMENT, with no apologies, just bad customer service. Again, this is another follow up to many, many, many previous unsuccessful follow ups. After many, many, many times speaking to Regions Bank XXXX Green Line customer service number, and visiting branches with no success, I was instructed by the most recent Regions XXXX customer service representative after inquring how can I reach someone, no one has cared or did anything regarding this matter, I was referred to the email : XXXX. Yet, yesterday, late while at work I recieved an unidentified miss call, called back while at work on break to see it was the XXXX Regions green line calling from a ( XXXX ) XXXX area code phone number, the hold was soo long that no one was reached, again at work. I placed the STOP PAYMENT on my account in the XX/XX/2018, yet Regions failed me twice, even after Regions suggested and issued a new debit card, failing to close out the old one. Again, I've lost {$74.00} at least three times, twice in XX/XX/2018 I believe, plus I lost the Regions STOP PAYMENT fee. I am an unsatisfied customer, and when situations permit, will be leaving and following up with continued complaints and reviews as hundreds of others I've heard from. I understand from the auto generated email of email being unsecured therefore, my account number ofcourse wasn't emailed, yet even after calling into the secured Regions XXXX customer service line talking with many Regions reps, still no success, this has been a continuous cycles of Regions giving me the run around and still MY MONEY IS GONE. I am again statng Regions needs to RESTORE MY FUNDS TO MY ACCOUNT. A solution must be met.ie XXXX XXXX To : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, Regions, Regions and 6 more ...

Hello. This is a long ongoing complaint I place with Regions Bank XXXX customer service number in XX/XX/2018, after paying Regions Bank STOP PAYMENT fee, to only many times still have the STOP PAYMENT failed by Regions, a second time because Regions Bank failed to, as stated and followed up Close Out old debit card, so atleast twice, maybe more, I loss {$74.00} bank draft and the Regions STOP PAYMENT fee, which failed me as a customer. I will keep following up complaints at all levels. I was even given a complaint reference number, yet everytime I follow up calling Regions customer service XXXX # no resolution or information is available. The customer service supervisor I spoke to was rude, and hung up on me. Something must be done, I trusted Regions Bank to hold and handle my money and Regions Bank failed to do their job in customer service, allowed and disallowed debits/drafts, closing old debit card after issue of new and following up as stated with Regions Bank that assured this would be solved, and honoring my Regions required STOP PAYMENT fee paid. I am again requesting my loss funds be restored by Regions and STOP PAYMENT fee be refunded.

Hello. I received an email today, Friday, XX/XX/2018, a receipt of payment from XXXX XXXX when a few months ago, I called Regions Customer Service and requested, and was issued a STOP PAYMENT, with the STOP PAYMENT fee. I was told the STOP PAYMENT was good for so many months, and yet, an unwilling payment was made to XXXX XXXX from my personal Regions Bank Account. Assistance is needed.
