You can sue the woman for the amount you claim she withdrew from your account.I was incarcerated on September 30,2016.at the time of my arrest my purse/wallet was in the vehicle of a woman I had met only a few weeks prior..I thought it would be safe.wrong.I was released on December 7,2016.at this time I discovered that some back child support owed to me in the amount of$5382.00 had been deposited onto my bank of America visa card on October 18th..I also discovered at this time that I now had a ZERO BALANCE.I filed a claim with the bank right away,faxing them proof I was incarcerated when deposit occurred and each draining transaction.I filed a police report right away,naming the woman..sent boa case number...they denied my claim and I am devastated.I am fighting it..I have since filed complaints against the bank with the federal reserve,FDIC,OCC,VISA USA and the consumer financial protection bureau.I have also filed an identity theft report with the FTC and the f.b.i's internet crime unit(ic3.gov). Boa denied my claim because she had my pin...I dont know how she knew it I can only guess she watched me use my card.I Never authorized ANYONE to use my card.I am willing to polygraph.I dont know what else to do...I cant hire an attorney....im broke!!! PLEASE HELP.
When you opened the account you became bound by the bank's customer account provisions. That's a contract. If the bank people complied with the contractual provisions in handling your claim that resulted in a denial, then the bank people did nothing wrong and there is nothing to fight.they denied my claim and I am devastated.I am fighting it..I have since filed complaints against the bank with the federal reserve,FDIC,OCC,VISA USA and the consumer financial protection bureau.Boa denied my claim because she had my pin
Why aren't you going after your "friend"?Ive done alot if reading/researching this past monthh and I have learned that there are laws that protect the consumers in these types of situations..these huge banks have ample insurance as well,so yes I am going to fight it....
There are, indeed, laws that protect consumers and it is true that banks have insurance. However, nothing you have said in your posts indicate that the bank is liable for your loss.Ive done alot if reading/researching this past monthh and I have learned that there are laws that protect the consumers in these types of situations..these huge banks have ample insurance as well,so yes I am going to fight it....
The most you can do is report the woman to the police (you do not determine whether she will go to jail) - and sue the woman.I already filed a police report..and I know I will find her before they do..she will go to jail....at this point I have no money to get an attorney to sue her.
Shes definitely not a friend.and yes im going to light a fire under these cops' butts....and yes I know this isnt the banks fault.I really needed that money.I had been waiting a long time for it.I wish the bank would be more humane and empathetic
This is only a reason to deny a claim under Visa's zero liability policy, but you still have Reg E protections. Reg E protections apply even if you had the PIN written on the card. https://www.ibat.org/legal-ease/2014/1/deposit-accounts-debit-cards-is-customer-liable-if-writes-pin-on-cardBoa denied my claim because she had my pin
