Wells Fargo Legal Order Fee Debit Case # Brick NJ Nationwide

I am pretty fed up with ashley and chaz hawthorn interferring with our lives. But this time she has really done it by falsely accusing us while we was taking care of our own banking account. She falsely called 911 to report my mother harassing her when she was talking to a banker about her own bank account.

The bank received a court order garnishment/levy against your account. Any time this happens there is a fee of $125 accessed against you. Additionally the account will be frozen with any/all money deposited into it held for the garnishment/levy. This will continue until the garnishment/levy is satisfied or (I think) a 90 day period.

I'd suggest contacting the bank and getting contact info for the lawyers involved, call them to make arrangements to pay so the garnishment/levy can be lifted and remember you'll have to use another way to pay your credit card until you get this cleared up.

So, not a rip off, just an inconvenience because some one sued you and got a court ordered judgement against you. No, I don't work for them.

You failed to mention one little part in your "RipOff" and the research you did.

Banks, and this is all banks including Wells Fargo will charge you a "Legal Fee" if they are served with Court Orders dealing with your accounts.  So they are not just randomly picking your name out of a hat and charging you a legal fee, they received a legal court order involving your account.  The fee may seem high(and I will leave that for another debate), but it along with every other fee charged is disclosed and in the fee schedule you received.  You can complain about the "fine print" but even if they put it in 72 point bold font, and made you iniital that you understood it, this is one of those fees you would have probably said "Oh..it will NEVER apply to me because I am not going to get sued".

Most of these orders are freeze/garnishment orders on your account.  Usually invovlving a creditor coming after you for non-payment(may or may not be the same bank), but it could be other types of suits as well.  Yet in your research you failed to mention why there was a court order issued on your account.

Now, with that said...most of the time the account holder(you) is well aware of what it COULD be. 

But if by chance you really have no clue, it could be a case where a creditor sued you and failed to properly serve you(sometimes known as Sewer Service).  In this case you will have to do some leg work to get the court case and get the judgement vacated.  You would also have to deal with this other creditor to pay this and any associated fees because Wells Fargo would be under no obligation to refund you the money...and again that is not just Wells Fargo, but any bank.
