Consumer Narrative
I received an offering the mail from M and T bank stating If I deposit {$10000.00} until XX/XX/2023 I would receive {$350.00}. I opened a " My choice premium checking account and deposited {$10000.00} on XX/XX/2023 in person with representative XXXX XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NY XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. XXXX said just make sure I keep the {$10000.00} until XX/XX/2023 to receive the promotional {$350.00}. He confirmed I met all the terms. I did in fact keep {$10000.00} in the account without any transactions whatsoever until XX/XX/2023 which is well past XX/XX/2023. I was told the {$350.00} would be deposited in my account. I never received it. I called XXXX left his messages and emails but he did not respond. I spoke with XXXX at M & T headquarters on XX/XX/2023. She said I met all the requirements and does not know why I didn't receive the {$350.00} promotion. She said she can not do anything else or help with the matter. I then spoke with XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2023. He said the promotion was not sent to my name. I told him it was sent to my name and I have the original promotion and read all the terms and conditions. The promo was sent to me but show me where in the terms and conditions it needs to be in my personal name. He refused to answer and said he " would not get into that '' I reiterated that I have the promotion in front of me there are 4 terms listed 1-4 on the back to let me know where it states what he is saying that the promotion needs to be sent to my personal name. Again he refused and also refused to honor the promotional terms. I explained that I fulfilled the terms and kept {$10000.00} in the account from XX/XX/2023 until XX/XX/2023 and that XXXX confirmed I met all the terms and should receive the {$350.00} as promised. That if they do not give it to me it's more then false advertisement it is theft. Unfortunately he continued to say he can not and will not do anything further regarding the matter without substantiating or indicating which term I have not met on their promotional flyer 's terms and conditions. M & T is deceiving the public, committing false advertisement and fraud.
