Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Problem using a debit or ATM card

Consumer Complaint: There was a {$300.00} unauthorized withdrawal from my checking acocunt in XXXX. After filing my request with M and T bank, they claim they never received the mailed paperwork. So I faxed it and mailed it again in XXXX which they did receive. They denied my claim and said their investigation did not come up with how it happened. However, when I asked what they investigated or how they came to this conclusion, I was told nothing. It is impossible to speak to anyone in the fraud/unauthorized transaction department, they only use emails from customer service. I am asking again to be contacted about the denial but that has yet to happen and probably will not. Are there any options for me at this point as M and T bank will not allow customers to speak to the individuals doing the investigation?

Issue: Fraud or scam

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: In XX/XX/2023, I received a wire transfer of {$21000.00} from M & T Bank into my NFCU account. After XXXX to XXXX days, M & T reversed the wire and removed my personal funds from my account and caused my account to be closed for receiving " unauthorized '' funds. This has caused me great harm. The clearly signed bank wire slip was prepared and authorized by the M & T employee at the XXXX XXXX, name XXXX XXXX, who I called and spoke with, and the sender, XXXX XXXX XXXX. ( XXXX attached. ) M & T prepared the wire and validated it by sending it out through their clearing system. The transfer must have been valid at that point and completed. The reversal of the wire made the funds proceeds of crime in the manner that it was recalled which caused me great harm. M & T enabled their client, the sender, to cash out of her commitment, leaving me on the line for {$21000.00} and causing my newly opened account to be shut down and my personal funds taken. Other funds were thereafter blocked causing me further hardship and inability to pay my bills. I will be requesting from the XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX an answer as to how an " unauthorized '' wire can be sent over their clearing network. I am unable to access my bank statements as my online access to my account has been blocked to penalize me. I am the XXXX XXXX XXXX victim of M & T and their client, XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I spoke with my bank, they advised me to contact M & T and the sender. I wrote to XXXX XXXX XXXX, Chairman and CEO and XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX M & T. Their less than satisfactory reply was that " due to privacy concerns '' they were " unable to provide [ me ] with a response ''. They then suggested " contacting XXXX XXXX directly to further address this matter ''. ( Copy attached. ) I have tried to contact XXXX XXXX and have verified receipts that my emails to her were received and opened. ( Copies attached. ) However, she has failed to respond. She and M & T are refusing to provide information that I am entitled to as they used my account.

Issue: Trouble during payment process

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: I got letters and the mortgage statement from different address and XXXX different banks MT & Bank and XXXX. And sometimes they do not send me the mortgage statement how I have been requested several times. I sent to MT & Bank XXXX e-mails asking them how much do I have to pay in XX/XX/XXXX and they answer me {$820.00} in XXXX. in the second e-mail they said me {$550.00} in XX/XX/XXXX because the ESCROW is {$260.00}. If you check the letter from XXXX they say the ESCROW is {$120.00}. I sent my payment on XX/XX/XXXX ( BEFORE XX/XX/XXXX ) waiting for the bank answer about pay my bill in XXXX monthly payments how I requested to the bank for my economic situation ( HARDSHIP TIME ) that I am not working, I live with a minor and I do not want to loss my house. Today, XX/XX/XXXX I got a letter from XXXX saying I have not paid XXXX. Check the attachment, please. Plus, I have to pay {$820.00} on XX/XX/XXXX when I supposed pay ONLY {$120.00} OF ESCROW. Then the payment for XXXX IS NOT {$820.00}. XXXX, after I called to MT & Bank XXXX XXXX to set up my monthly payments arrangements because I was going through for a hardship times, XXXX XXXX up and starts sending me documents. My account and my payments are on the MT & Bank website. I suspect they are charging me more because I have never stopped making my monthly payments. *******And these inconsistencies can be seen and compared in the M & T Bank XXXX and XXXX mortgage statements.
