Robber Banks: All Banks are Robbers; but Some Banks are More Robbers

It must be so nice for those people who always know how much money they have in their accounts. As of this moment, I could not tell you. Why? Because Compass wants you to keep overdrafting and run up outrageous fees. Two weeks ago I checked my balance on an ATM machine. It showed that I had approx -$90 in my account. I had not charged anything that day. By the time I got to the bank and deposited my check, it was approx -$350. I had been very sick for some time so I dismissed this as my own fault for not keeping up with my account. I started fresh and kept track of my acount. I went by to deposit my check again today. My balance was -$550 when I showed that I should have had over $100. I went in to speak to someone, who explained that they had not taken out 4 NSF charges. Therefore, the last ten charges I had made, which were no more than $10 each, all received the $36 NSF fee. I told the lady that I wanted to close my account. She said that I could not because there were still three outstanding transactions, all of which will also receive the NSF charge. Therefore, instead of having $100 in my account, I have approximately -$650. However, I don't know for sure because they supposedly cannot tell me. The fact is, yes, it was my fault that my account was originally overdrafted two weeks ago. However, by failing to notifying me of what my balance is, they allowed me to believe that I had more money in my account than I did. That would be their fault. As a bank, I'm sure they can pretty much do anything they want to do with my money and get away with it. However, as a business, they should do more to help their customers. I truly beleive that they have practices in place to manipulate people so that they are costantly in question as to their account balances. If I have made a payment, take the money out. If I have an NSF fee, take it out. Don't leave it lingering about until it's more profitable to slap another fee on top of. As for me, I'm closing my account with Compass. However, I have some charging to do first! (P.S. It's though, not thow) (Jeffrey - Fort Worth, Texas, U.S.A.)
