Virginia Oil Company allows Telecheck to charge $50 per returned check even when the check is paid on second submission.
BBT bank charged me $35 (X 6) $210, for checks returned(they had been paying overdrafts up to then and had been charging me overdraft fees.)
So I was charged $70 dollars per check by BBT. $70 X 6=$420.
Several days later-Telecheck submitted charges of $50 each,total $300. It was not paid so agian there's $210 in return fees.
7 days later, Telecheck submits again- $50 X 6= $300. It was not paid so BBT charges another $210.
So- $210 +$420+$210= $840+$210=$1050 total for 4- $20 checks,1 check for $10 and 1 for $15.
Can telecheck be sued for the charges.? The checks were paid on second submission.
Can BBT be forced to return $420 in return fees?
Ordinarily BBT would have paid these fees but they saw it as an opportunity to collect huge fees from a penniless elderly person whose income is less than $700 a month.

Another person who overdrafts their account and wants to put the blame on everyone else.
Ordinarily BBT would have paid these fees
- Sounds like you have done this before..perhaps BB&T is getting tired of your scheme and finally said enough was enough so they just started to return the checks. As it is fairly obvious that the only reason you would write 6 checks to the same company at the same time for small amounts, instead of one check for a larger amount. Is because you think that if you wrote the checks for under a certain amount they would just pay them.
Just be aware that if this is a common occurrence for you, merchants and/or banks may turn you over to the local District Attorney for CRIMINAL prosecution for writing bad checks, especially if you know you are writing a check and don't have the money to cover it. Don't believe me,. just call up your local District Attorneys office and ask if they have a Check Restitution Program for people that write bad checks.
The checks were paid on second submission
- NO. They were paid on the 3rd submission.
Virginia Oil - Returned Unpaid
Telecheck 1st time - Return Unpaid
Telecheck 2nd time - Finally paid.
So in answer to your questions....
Can telecheck be sued for the charges.
- Sure you can sue anyone for anything. But don't expect to prevail.
Can BBT be forced to return $420 in return fees?
- Nope.
One other thing that if this is a common occurrence for you, you may find that BB&T will just decide to close your account. If they have gone to no longer paying your checks, you may be closer to that than you think. If this happens you may have a serious issue opening up another account at any other major bank.
