Consumer Narrative
I have been a customer at PNC Bank since around XXXX. I have a checking account, and also own a debit and credit card. Around XX/XX/XXXX, I lost my debit card and I called PNC to report a lost card. The agent who received my call noticed that I had been a customer at PNC a long time and offered to upgrade my checking account to " Performance Select '' because I had been a customer for PNC for a long time. I asked him if there were any fees associated with the account and he said no. I agreed to upgrading my account. On XX/XX/XXXX, I realized that PNC made {$25.00} service charges on my checking account for each statement in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. According to PNC, the minimum balance for the checking account with Performance Select was {$5000.00}, but they did not inform me that there was a minimum balance requirement for the account. Additionally, I did not receive any email, mail, or phone notifications that my account was under the minimum balance requirement or that PNC was making service charges on my account each month. I called PNC to resolve the issue, and they agreed to waive the service charges in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. However, they refuse to forgive the service charges in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX.
