Banks freezing accounts has now become a painful problem as more customers nationwide report inexplicable financial damage.
Some of the biggest banks, including Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and JPMorgan Chase have given customers a painful experience recently.
After reporting how families accounts have been frozen by MVB Bank and Green Dot Bank, several bank customers reported to FrankNez their current experiences with much bigger banks.
“Wells Fargo and now Chase have done me like this since 2019.
They recently froze my bank accounts 4 months ago trying to stop the purchase of my home and keep the account frozen every 2 weeks since then.
There are multiple issues with banks and freezing accounts with inadequate reasoning.
I have lawyers working on the case as well. Thank goodness I’m not the only person suffering and dealing with this issue,” says DeVonn.
Hurtis Woodruff from Alabama says he thinks big banks are taking advantage of the middle class as he seeks to sue Wells Fargo for fraud.
“Get a lawyer gather every bit of verifiable proof you can. Your local or high court will award you your money back and then some. They are doing this sh*t because people are not suing them,” says Allison Alexander.
By far the most reports seem to come from Walmart’s partner Green Dot, which has more than 33 million users.
The bank seems to lack liquidity with the number of reports coming to light of the bank preventing access to money.
Retirees money has been held hostage with many families resorting to having to use high interest credit cards and even miss bills completely.
