Consumer Narrative
Wells Fargo pressured me into opening a business savings account and then lied that it was a requirement that they also sign me up for a business credit card at the same time. Years later I finally closed said business account, that was two and a half years ago! I get at least one card offer a week from them and they tracked me accross state lines to a state they don't even have a branch in. This week was the final straw, they sent me a business credit card for the account and business that I closed down two and a half years ago.
