This Massive Chain Is Now Closing Several Stores in Pennsylvania

November 18, 2023

A massive retailer chain is now closing several more stores in Pennsylvania after filing for bankruptcy last month, per new reports.

The bankrupt Pennsylvania based pharmacy chain continues to announce store closures, with the total now surpassing 200.

Rite Aid was founded in Pennsylvania in 1965 but has struggled recently and last month filed for bankruptcy after incurring $ 3.3 billion in unpaid debt, reports Ash Jurberg.

“Rite Aid operates over 2,330 stores in 17 U.S. states, but this number is rapidly declining and will soon drop below 2000.

In October, as part of its bankruptcy filing, it announced that 154 locations nationwide would soon close, including thirty-nine in its home state of Pennsylvania.

Since then, they have filed three more updates, with the total number of closures now totaling 201, including a whopping forty-nine in Pennsylvania.”

So far, three companies have filed WARN notices of upcoming job cuts in Pennsylvania for 2024 already.

Hood Packaging Corporation plans to lay off 58 employees by January 14, 2024.

Vitro Flay Glass, LLC. will lay off 88 employees by January 15, 2024.

And RE2, LLC/Sarcos Corp. will lay off 72 employees by January 16, 2024.

Below is a complete and updated list of Rite Aid stores closing in Pennsylvania soon.

Bank of America now closes a customer account without warning or explanation, creating massive turmoil for the user.

The giant has been scrutinized for freezing customer accounts for many months now.

Christina Blanton says she has been a loyal customer at Bank of America for 17 years now but said the company couldn’t give a reason behind the decision.

CBS affiliate WBBM says Blanton couldn’t access money from Bank of America for her thyroid cancer surgery.

Blanton, who has since switched banks, said her account was locked just before she was due to have surgery.

She told WBBM: “I was upset and frustrated. I wanted to cry.”

Blanton said she initially thought she had put her password in wrong when she couldn’t access her online bank account.

She realized that her account had been locked.

The mom struggled to get an answer from Bank of America in an ordeal that lasted months – before it was eventually resolved, reports The-Sun.

She claimed that the bank had made a so-called business decision to shut the account.

She said she was eventually able to access her funds after her account was reopened.

But she was left furious that bosses couldn’t give an explanation why her account was closed.

A spokesperson told WBBM: “We can’t share information about an individual account for reasons of privacy, but we have resolved the issue directly with our customer.”

Meanwhile, Chase Bank customer Justin Martin has also told of the moment he realized his account had been frozen.

Small business owner Christian Haberkern has recalled the ordeal that saw more than $24,000 wiped from her Wells Fargo account.

She tried to get her money back for weeks before the funds were eventually returned.
