On October 2, 2009 My Social Security Disability direct deposit hit my checking account. On this same day a check that was reported to be lost from my old landlord in March (Which I replaced with a bank check) was cashed. I only found this out when I needed to get more insulin (I'm a type 1 diabetic and I have Secondary Progressive Multiple Slerosis) Well I couldn't get my insulin because I my account was overdrawn.
I called the automated system and found out that my old landlord had cashed this stale check. I called claims and told them about it, and dealt with my local branch of citizens and the claim department. I was charged $681 dollars for bounching the checks that I had out there, and for being over drawn. They would not even refund me the money for my insulin. Now this all happened 5 weeks ago, and I got smart today and called the Bennington VT Citizens and asked them there policy on cashing a stale dated check, I was told that they wouldn't cash a stale dated check at all, if it was over 6 months old it would not be cashed. This
customer service representative even checked with other tellers and was told the same thing. So now I called the claims department figuring that I was actually helping them out. I was told that someone else was now handeling my claim. When I spoke to him he told me that he couldn't tell me anything because he had just received a letter from the OCC today that I had filed weeks ago, and I would have to wait until the middle of next week for his letter to get to me. I was so mad. Now all of this stress has caused me to go into an acute flair with my MS and then I had a reaction to the Solu-medrol and was hospitalized for three days (just got out today)
Well I decided to call back the Bennington VT Citizens for some more clarification.
