Consumer Narrative
I already spoke directly with the issuing bank and with the company who issued the check. Both confirmed : The funds ARE fully available. There are no issues with the check. The problem is entirely with Fifth Third Banks processing. The company even provided written verification that the funds are available. I have banked with Fifth Third for several years and have deposited checks from this same company multiple times without problems. I am being subjected to excessive verification and a prolonged hold due solely to a teller processing error that I did not cause. I am facing financial harm for a mistake that I did not make, while no one at the branch or dispute department is taking responsibility. I demand immediate release of my funds and correction of this teller error.
