TCF National Bank NSF Charge Ripoff $185 in 3 days Burr Ridge, Illinois

My son was charged $37 insufficient funds fee 5 times (total $185) despite deposting funds exceeding the negative balance prior to at least three of the transactions for which he was penalized. The tellers he talked to acknowldge this - they gave him receipts showing +ve balance, but maintain that transactions prior to clearing of checks still incur the $37 penalty regrdles of what is showing as his account balance. They would not let my son, a freshman away from home, see the Bank manger or anyone else who may have the descretion to waive these ridiculous fees. I know the fine print he signed stipulated this fee, but should they not have warned him that he will be charged if he makes use of the money he deposited which was showing as positive balance? Paying $185 for withdrwals totaling less than $30 seems total ripoff .. does he have any recourse?
