Wire Transfer much?
But using starter checks to cash out $25k? That would have been denied anyway.
I don't know what account this is, but wouldn't be able to wire funds?
I read the article and Wells admits they erroneously issued starter checks to the man when he opened the account. Wells Fargo is rarely 100% without blame.
a lot of these stories are at the fault of the accuser ,but media wants to make big bad WF look like the bad guy.
He knew he srewed up and blamed us. Father is to blame here.
@vyx+1vYzxLKb Agreed. This one was on the dad. Pretty nice of us to give him 750 honestly. He should be embarrassed.
Did you even read the article?
The headline should be “id--t father let down son because he couldn’t cash checks from a check less account”
But Monroe’s account with Wells Fargo was a checkless bank account.
Clear Access Banking accounts, the type Monroe opened for his son, don’t process checks and customers are informed of that when they open one, a Wells Fargo spokesperson told the U.S. Sun.
