Bank account or service Checking account

Complaint #1623114 submitted on 10/24/2015 relating to Bank of America. Complaint relates to Bank account or service Checking account - Deposits and withdrawals .

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Saturday 24th October 2015.

Narrative (may be redacted).

In late XXXX, I travelled to XXXX to attend a conference and speak to college students about XXXX. In so doing, I left my debit card at the hotel for their file. Upon leaving -- a week later -- the hotel charged the wrong card ( mine ), as opposed to the university card. The charges appeared on the XXXX and were put in process to be reversed the same day. I requested a receipt on the XXXX, which will be attached. The hotel charge was fully refunded by the XXXX. I contacted Bank of America to make sure I would not receive overdraft fees on the XXXX. They were to make a note of it. Instead, I received XXXX overdraft fees on the XXXX -- stemming from the original charge and subsequent fees -- totally {$100.00}. I just got off the phone with them and, after going through other personal account business, they told me they could not deal with the overdrafts because they could no longer confirm my identity. I then repeated my name, as appearing on the website, and the teller in deposits XXXX, apologized and placed me on hold. He said there was no record of the overdrafts, and I expressed concern that he could see hte record I was seeing via my statement ( attached ). He then said I my name was incorrect and I could not be helped via phone. Apparently it does n't match the name on their file -- however, this was not the case a week ago, and my information on the online banking matches exactly what my name is, and how I said it, and how it appears on my card. It seems that they were able to handle all questions and business about my account except my fee reversal request. They are now telling me to go into a floor office to confirm my identity in their files and handle the overdraft. However, these offices do not handle overdraft fees.
