What is the name of your state? Virginia is my state. I wrote a check at a local store for $15.00, the federal Reserve bank made an encoding error by marking the check as $150.15. My bank returned the check as an overdraft and the store passed the check along to it's collection department who in turned sent it to an agency they hired just for that purpose. The problem is the store was aware of the error, (I notified them myself) they told me that they had not received the check back yet but they would take care of it. Well they didn't, they sent it to their collections company who in turn redeposited the check got the origional $15.00, plus debited my account for an additional $25.00 without my consent. When I contacted them and explained the error they told me they had the right, and I could do nothing about it, and there was a new law or statue, and rattled off some code which they stated gave them the right to debit my account without my consent. Do I have any legal ground here to get this reversed. It's not a lot of money, but it's the principal, not to mentioned none of them were willing to help me, but told me it was my problem. HELP!!!!
