First Premier Bank, bogus late fees, overdraft fees, harrassing phone calls
I was issued a card from First Premier Bank a while back, and every time I used the card I was given a statement back with overdraft fees, late fees, and harrassing phone calls. I paid for this $350.00 credit card probably four times the amount that was owed due to the associated fees. On November 30th, 2001 I just got fed up with them and decided to cancel the card and pay one last time and never to hear from them again. The representative that I spoke with assured me that if I sent them $300.00 by Western Union them would never hear from them again. To my surprise, a few days ago I recieved a statement in the mail for $387.00 from them. I was furious. I called one of their representatives and she told me that this amount was from fees associated with the card. I told her about the so-called taped conversation with one of their representatives and she became very rude with me and threatened me that if I don't send this amount in to them, I would have this put on my credit report. I replied, for a card that was supposed to be cancelled. I just could figure out how in two months a card that hasn't been used and supposed to be terminated come up with $387.00 worth of fees in less that a month and a half. While at work I decided to research their company and maybe write a letter to someone that is responsible. To my surprise their has been other victims in this scam as well.
Sincerely,
