Complaint Review: TRS Recovery Service-TELECHECK

I made a mistake in my check book. It was an accident and I bounced two checks at the same business. I immediately called TeleCheck and took care of the checks and charges.

It took a week and a half to get approval to write checks again. I wrote one check at the same business as before and the check was accepted. That was 3 days ago.

Today, I tried to write a check at the same location as before. I got declined with a code 4. I called the number on the form the store gave me. All I could get was a recording. I went around in circles. After many calls and a low battery on my phone, I went on line to find help. I finally located a phone number through a lawyers web site. I called the number and got a person.

They said it would be six days before the "security issue" would clear. After that my checks would be approved on an individual basis. So it may or may not be approved. I then spoke with a supervisor. I didn't get anywhere with him either.

So now I can't use checks and have to pay with cash. He said I have to build up my check cashing privlages. How do I do that if I can't write checks?

This company has too much power and honest people suffer for it!
