Issue: Making/receiving payments, sending money

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: I have an account with SunTrust Bank, from which I have never ordered checks. SunTrust bank cashed XXXX forged checks out of my deposit account and then charged numerous overdraft fees from those checks and other debits from the account. I called the next day to report the counterfeit checks, but they are saying that they will take 7-10 business days to " investigate. '' These checks are obviously counterfeit. They look like they were made from a copy machine, they were from a SunTrust Bank with a PO Box , and they were signed " XXXX ''. SunTrust now refuses to release my money back to me because of their mistake while they hold onto my money for 7-10 business days. This is an absurdly long time to investigate something that is a clear case of fraud because of their lack of security.

Consumer Complaint: I opened a credit card with Suntrust Bank. We agreed on a {$2900.00} transfer to my old credit card to clear that balance. However, they made the transfer twice. They did agree to credit me the second {$87.00} transfer fee but will not credit my account for the extra {$2900.00}. They said they ca n't retrieve it so I am responsible for the balance. They suggest I track down and try and retrieve this money and pay the bill.

Issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Consumer Complaint: On XXXX/XXXX/16 I deposited XXXX $ XXXX funds into my Suntrust checking account XXXX. On XXXX/XXXX/16 the bank withdrew XXXX $ for the exchange rate and continued to hold the entire {$5000.00}, overdrawing my account by XXXX $ and insulting me with an overdraft fee, in addition to leaving me no liquid assets to live on.

However, now the bank has debited my XXXX account the XXXX $ on XXXX/XXXX/16 and has not credited my XXXX account the XXXX XXXX The only information they offer is that the funds will be available on XXXX/XXXX/16, six weeks from the initial deposit, leaving me no funds in either account.

Consumer Complaint: I would like to file a formal complaint against SUNTRUST MORTGAGE. I am receiving correspondence from Suntrust Mortgage almost daily in regards to late payment which was included in a chapter XXXX. The bankruptcy has been discharged and one of the criteria from the TRUSTEES was to make sure mortgage to be paid on time. I have made every payment on time since bankruptcy and Suntrust is continuing to show late fees which has since been paid by bankruptcy court. I made XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX payment on time and today I am receiving a registered letter stating I 'm 2 months behind. I have spoken to XXXX representative from Suntrust and I was told they would update their record. Nothing has been done and I refuse to allow them to report missed payment to Credit Agency due to their inefficiency.

Consumer Complaint: I run a XXXX and we have had multiple issues with suntrust bank. Our XXXX as a result of its intrinsic natural does nothing operate even keel through out each month. We will have a $ XXXX check one day and a XXXX check another. Over 13 times suntrust bank holds a check from one of our customers for up to 7 to 10 days while this is understood to be part of the antiquated bank regulations from XX/XX/XXXX. It is devastating to our small business. A XXXX dollar check was deposited on Wednesday XX/XX/XXXX. We where told that the bank put a hold on it on Friday XX/XX/2016. And told that we could pick up the money Wednesday morning XX/XX/2016. I went this morning the XXXX of XXXX to pick up our money and it was still not available. I checked with the customer to see if the money was removed from her account and it was on Friday XX/XX/XXXX. I was also told that they would not give me cash they would only give me a certified check. Which will but put on hold as soon as I put open a new account. I also no longer trust Suntrust to produce a note of legal tender. I do n't trust that they actually have the money. This puts undo XXXX and my family as this is our only income. This XXXX is the key to open up almost XXXX in material and work for our company. We have missed some opportunities that would have allowed our business to make even more money than that in these past 7 days. My belief is that suntrust and possibly other banks removes the money for the payee 's account, uses this money to collect interest and make more money stating the banking regulations as the reason. Then clears the money verifies the check and then that money goes to the receivers account. Once there it stays on hold while that bank uses that money to make money before allowing it to show up in the account. In my mind and in my belief that is laundering. Using XXXX of consumers money to make XXXX worth of interest between banks. In that I think it is possible that just like the mortgage industry bubble popped eventually this will also be a bubble that pops. Interest on money even over 7 days over multiple accounts is a lot of money being made on the illusion of funds not actual funds. It is my belief and concern that all banking customers are headed for a rude awaking When we all find out that our banks do n't actually have any of our dollars.

Consumer Complaint: SunTrust Mortgage placed hazard insurance on a residential investment property that I owned. I complied with the instructions for the class action law suit, XXXX v. SunTrust Mortgage Inc. et al., Case No. XXXX ( XXXX. Florida ) but my claim was rejected because it allegedly remained incomplete, even though the documents were submitted in full compliance with the instructions. They ultimately foreclosed on my property, claiming that the loan modification documents provided for the request were incomplete, again, even though they were in full compliance with their instructions.
