Consumer Narrative
Around XX/XX/XXXX my checking account was hit with fraud and fifth third bank took my s.s. Check to cover the amount that was fraud I went to them and reported and my account was overdrawn because of this they said they couldnt close the account for 3 months so this continues to hope they were using my money and paying a credit card off and I told them and the credit card place and they closed my credit card account but fifth third bank didnt so XXXX fifth third took my money again they would not give me another account so this wouldnt happen again so I went to one of the branches and talked to one of the girls and she opened another account and moved my s.s. Check it was working until I saw that someone deposited XXXX into my old account because it was still open and someone withdrew XXXX so it shows I owe XXXX I asked her who put that much money in my account she said fifth third but she didnt know why so XXXX came and it hit again so XXXX they took my S.S. Check so I talk to another person and see called the main branch and she told me they are closing the account both of them and gave me my s.s. Check back to me week later my account was closed and i cant get any bank to give me a checking account because fifth third bank put a notice to all the banks that I owed them money and thats why they closed my account I went back and talk to the girl and she said because of the account was overdrawn for too long they sent it to other banks this is not turn they overdrawn my account and now I cant get anyone to give me a checking account
