    RECEIVED VIA EMAIL BY BBB STAFF MEMBER:

    Dear *** ********

    We received the complaint that was filed with Cleveland Better Business Bureau on August 18, 2022. After researching the customer’s concerns, I offer the following reply.

    *** ****** filed a consumer complaint with the Western Pennsylvania Better Business Bureau on August 3, 2022 regarding overdraft fees on her Everything Checking and Everything Savings accounts. At that time, the customer was provided information about the manner in which fees were assessed on her accounts and the steps to take to avoid them in the future.  

    As was advised in the Bank’s response dated August 11, 2022, the customer’s Everything Checking is opted in for point-of-sale transactions. That means that *** ****** has asked that debit card purchases be authorized, even when there are insufficient available funds to cover them, and she agrees to the $36 Overdraft Fee associated with that approval. In order to avoid future Point of Sale Overdraft fees, we advised *** ****** to change the account to be opted out of debit card approvals when there are insufficient available funds in her Everything Checking account. If the customer is interested in changing the opt in / opt out status on her account, she may visit a local branch for assistance or she may call our Customer Service Center at 1-800-242-2265 and a representative will assist her. 

    Upon receipt of the most recent complaint, the customer’s accounts were reviewed by the Vice President of our Branch Support department. Based on the advice given by the Bank on how to avoid Point of Sale fees, and the customer’s lack of action to change the account opt in / opt out status, and due to the recent reimbursement of $432 in overdraft fees provided to *** ****** in her August 3, 2022 complaint, the Vice President did not refund any additional fees in this instance. 

    If you have further questions or need clarification, please contact me at the telephone number below. 

    Sincerely,



    ******* ** *********
    Assistant Vice President
