I received niocfiiatton today that I would be receiving a refund. If you get a notice, you are entitled to a refund. The dates were from Feb, 2005 Aug 2010.. If you didn't have quite enough funds to cover all the checks or debits that came in, they would pay the big check, then send all the little ones back, resulting in a $25.00 fee for each one. Instead of paying all the little ones and mabye having one fee of $25.00. They also would run checks through first, on the SAME day a deposit came in, then claim that the checks are usually processed first..???? I worked at a bank for 8 years.. It does NOT work that way Check your bank records You may be entitled to a refund
