BB&T (Branch Banking And Trust Company) OVERDRAFT SCAM Alexandria Virginia

The BB&T Overdraft SCAM.
Let's say it's 01/01/08 and you have a balance of $100 in your account. On 01/01/08 you made seperate purchases for $5, $10, $10, $25. Your account balance is now $50.
On 01/02/08 you made seperate purchases for $10, $10, $25.Your account balance is now $5. On 01/03/08 you made a purchase for $6.Your account is now negative -$1.

You would think that you would be charged an overdraft fee for the purchase that overdrafted your account, right? WRONG.

BB&T will also charge you a $35 Overdraft Fee on all of the previous purchases, even though they were made while enough money was in your account to cover them. Add in the fact that if you check your balance VIA the internet or ATM, your balance reflects the purchases made INSTANTLY.

Guess what? Now your account is negative -$316.

You are paying $280 in OVERDRAFT FEES on purchases that you made while enough money was in your account to cover them. Not only that, they WERE covered. As I said, this bank's website and ATMs will show that the money was taken out in REAL TIME.

This practice by BB&T is definitely unmoral and unethical. The next steps are to find out if anything within the legal system can be done to stop it.

If there's anyone out there that can help, please contact me.
