Complaint Review: Prestige Financial

My bank drew to my attention that I was overdrawn in my checking account. I have never ever been overdrawn (40+ years). I checked my account and to my surprised I was indeed overdrawn by a considerable amount. Come to find out that, the overdraft was caused by a significant debit withdrawal from my account by Prestige Financial without my consent or knowledge. I assume they obtained my debit card number from one of their loan clients, since the card was in my possession! A three way call with my bank, Prestige and me proved that I had no account(s) with them. Normally, I would put it down as an error, but I have heard and personally experienced from a friend that their operations and collection methods (even though might be legal) leave a lot to be desired leaving people in distress.

Reader is invited to check other complains by other consumers. I will eventually get my money back but I wonder how many other people are out there who have been done/treated wrong by this company and can't do anyhting about it! I wish someone would investigate the practices and account procedures of this company.I guess they (Prestige) are aware of the cost so they can operate like a lose cannon..
