I want to go enjoy a jazz concert out of town well. I didn't enjoy it because they were shooting.

When I returned back from the concert it was shooting at the motel and I've been working on this since may of 2024 and after demo, keep asking me. For more information to open up the claim, I give them more information from the Jacksonville sheriff department. They still aint done nothing to resolve this issue.

They are the most sorry I've ever dealt within my life. My recommendation of other potential customers are gold to another bank.Cause you won't be satisfied with these money.Hungry people, it's bad enough.I have to worry about merchant still in money.I gotta watch these people at regions as well

California Covid-19 check denied payment

Regions Bank - California Covid-19 check denied payment
Contains 1 confidential file for company representatives
Original review updated Sep 26, 2024

Hello, I am a landlord and have tenants who are depending on a California program since 2020. A check from the California COVID-19 program was made out to me, from Regions Bank.

which I deposited into my Navy Federal Credit Union checking account on 9-23-2024. However, the check was declined for payment to NFCU. In the notes, it was noted by Regions Bank to 'contact vendor'. Consequently, the money was withdrawn from my account and now I have a negative balance in my NFCU account.

As a veteran on a fixed income, my situation has worsened. I now have to wait a week for the electronic digital copy to be mailed out by NFCU.

Messy Banking

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I rented A motel in Jacksonville home, one great to a concert in Jacksonville.When I returned back to this place there was shooting at the motel. I followed a claim with regions About having to stay in my Car because of this Shooting my bank has done nothing to help me.

But request more information. I gave them the information that they ask for and they still denied my claim as I was told that I can do. Staying in your car after spending your money is something that I don't really care to do I provided data folks with all types of information, incputting Jacksonville sheriff department, showing that they did respond to this address at home. One great stay.

Since may I've been working diligently on thistand and they can't even get it together. I would suggest no 1 rents 2 regions. And I will look for a different banking institution.

Because I'm tired of regions and their foolish enough. You do better off taking your money elsewhere for your banking Needs because region will give you the run around every single time

Regions Bank is holding a check I deposited on the 15th till the 24th

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I deposited a check for $750 on the 15th and I was going to use it for my bills. But Regions Bank decided to put a hold on my hard earned check till the 24th.

Now my electricity is shut off my phone will be off tomorrow all because they said it is policy. It wasn't policy before.

I went back to look at the agreement and it boldly says they will have your funds for you the next day. What they are doing is wrong and bad business practices that hurt the little people with no voice but we put our money in there big banks.

I encountered the same situation. I deposited a check in the amount of $8700 on 11/21.

I was told at the time of deposit that $5300 would be available on 11/27 and the remainder on 12/06..This morning I received an email in which I was informed that my entire deposit was on hold and I would not have any of the funds resulting from that deposit available until 12/06. This absolutely ruined my family's Thanksgiving plans. I am a 66 year old man who is raising two grandchildren and trying to help support their parents on my social security and I was looking forward to giving them a nice Thanksgiving. I have my Regions account since they were First Alabama but I intend to rectify that mistake as soon as I can have my.direct deposits changed to another bank.

My.advice? Avoid Regions as you would.the plague.

Nothing but trouble

My son and I opened account regions earlier this year with a substantial sum of money from an inheritance. Ever since day one, they freeze my card.

I can't spend a dollar; they cancelled my card, they locked my card. I had to go to the bank and get $15,000 in cash to buy my camper because I couldn't use my card. I had to get money orders and cashier checks to pay for my truck because I couldn't use my card. I stop at Farmer Jackson Suncoast Florida a lot.

I can't even spend $6; they stopped my card.

When I go to the bank, I'm there for more than an hour just getting excuses and being told it'll never happen again- that day or the next day, if they aren't doing it, I'm screwed again. I would not recommend this bank to anyone; it is worse than Bank of America.

The Us Comptroller has no authority over Regions because they are a STATE CHARTER BANK.

The fact that you posted your (or someone else's) info on a PUBLIC site that has nothing to do with the bank may explain how you were compromised. Plain stupidity if you haven't figured it out.

Regions locked my account due to a program they provided Zelle, Regions couldn't tell me why or unlock my account. Calling Zelle was no help either.

After 3 days Regions was able to unlock my account. This happen again with Zelle but at lease my funds were not locked.

Regions will block your funds for a product they offer. SAD.

ATM Debited my account but did not dispense cash

ATM ID - RFC21049

Between 5:13pm and 5:23pm April 5, 2024 I arrived at the Jacksonian plaza Regions Bank atm in Jackson Ms. I used my Square card ending in 2900 to make a withdrawal of $220.

ATM fees of $2.50 were added to make the total amount debited to my account $222.50. While waiting on the machine to dispense the cash, an error message came up saying the atm is out of service.

I could hear what sounded like the machine gathering the cash until it just quit and displayed the error message. Please contact me with instructions on reimbursement

Bait and switch regarding balance transfer offers.

Took advantage of offer. They claimed offer was not done within 60 days of account opening.

They never advised me as to the date of account opening. I did the transfer, entered the code, and a month later saw they were charging me interest. I asked the president and sr vice president to corrct their error. They refused which violates their corporate statements.

If the pres and sr vp are bad, the bank is bad. I filed a complaint with the state banking people. Such a scam and attitude.

I am 77 years old. Beware they take advantage of seniors.

CAN'T ACCESS MY MONEY!!!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I transferred over $800 to my Regions account yesterday and today. When I tried to get some of the money from an ATM an hour ago, I was declined.

My account says the money is available (on my app and on the phone). I pulled over, called Regions Bank, and spoke to a CSR, only to find out my account is under a "soft closure" due to it being previously overdrawn by $4. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED ABOUT THIS "SOFT CLOSURE" OR ABOUT MY ACCOUNT BEING OVERDRAWN, otherwise, I never would've transferred money to the account.

When I asked the CSR why I was even allowed to transfer my money to this account knowing I wouldn't have access to it, she said, "That's a good question." When I asked if I can transfer MY money from the Regions account to another account, I was told I would not be able to, and I would have to wait (possibly until tomorrow) before I could access MY money. As a result, I will be charged a $50 fee from the company I was trying to make a payment to and an order I need to place today cannot be placed and my package will not arrive in time.
