I am totally with you both. For the positions that dh are hoping or interviewing for there are dozens more willing to work for less. The fellas called back are making 1/3 less and no benefits, doing many extra duties.
IT was big business that did this years ago and greed and now did it again. I swear the previous administration knew it was going on and ignored it.
The CBass, credit based organizations bought up all the loans screwed people over, we almost lost our home last year over a concealed illegal buy out, and now the bank is screwing us.
The have a skeam going with calling it a courtesy over draft. First I had OD protection, they said I did not, they then allowed an unauthorized auto payment to AAA I did not authorize, it OD the account, they did not use my protection said I did not carry it,,,,even when I proved I did they only gave me back $195 of $490 in fees. The paid out mega small things like $20 gas, $8 for Burger King, $20 groceriers, and a pizza, etc. I DID have BLOCK to NOT allow the card to work if no funds in there, they called yesterday and said now they took the entire $800 in UC checks and I am still $400 OD when am I paying it.
I walked her through where they are wrong, and she said prove it. It all came from my complaint to the Federal Reserve of their prior practice is Feb to "allow" courtesy OD, up to $400 at $35 an OD, P I FLIPPED,

THe dh spent way more then I knew on the debit, he was not good about it.
But today when I told the girl I wanted her name and copy of the conversation and the transcript of the conversation along with her supporting documents for me to forward to the fed's agency, SHE HUNG UP.
So I have that entire account screwed from them allowing two unauthorized payments them charging fees and allowing overages...
Sorry if it is confusiing. but I never had this proble,at the most I thought if not enough funds the debit card would not work...
All our income this week went into the OD account and we have no money!
And she wants to know when we are going to pay another $4oo?!!!!!
