    We are a construction business and we had a merchant's acct with Wells Fargo. We had issues with them so closed acct then they holded business funds for months Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec. Amount holding $66,425.00 and giving the run around about escalation being done. On going for months. Then got executives. Got a Megan Allen. She sent letter we were going to receive some funds on 1/19/23. I contacted her why some funds. This is not acceptable. However we waited on 1/19/23. Nothing being refunded. Megan refuse to answer even her boss Sean claim her laptop not working. All excuses. She never return my call.

    Please business owners do not work with Wells Fargo. They are a scam!! This is our money they are holding hostage. We need our money for business!!!! I would give this bank a no star. This bank is the worst. We placed BBB complaint and CFPB. Someone has to act on this matter. This letter they send they worthless. Meaningless. We hired an attorney. They are refusing to take his calls. Legal dept has only a voicemail. Really!!! No wonder they gotten sued many times!!!

    About 8 months ago I was informed of a bank account that I shared with a deceased family member. I went to Wells Fargo to ask what I needed to withdraw the money from the account and I was told “only a death certificate”. I get the death certificate, call the estate number, they tell me go to the branch and I do, where I am told I can’t do anything until I’m 21 and when I do turn 21, all I need is my license and I can withdraw the funds, this is told to me by the banker and the estate agent she had called to sort everything out. I turn 21, now I’m being told I am required to fill out forms that I have no idea about because last time they told me I’d only need my license.

    I talk to the impersonal (and frankly arrogant) banker and the estate person with the same attitude and they said this isn’t their job to tell me what I need to fill out even though I’ve asked not once but TWICE about what I need to do to withdraw (a small amount) of money. Every time I ask for help it’s like pulling teeth with Wells Fargo. THIS IS MY MONEY and I deserve answers. Going through with an attorney to receive the funds would probably cost half of the money I’d be getting or more so it’s not even worth it. I’m just tired of their “customer support” being impersonal, arrogant and unhelpful. Horrible bank. I would never ever open an account of my own with these people.

    Updated on 05/13/2023: So far they have taken over 18 months to pay out the trust. They have misused the trust and have lost a good portion of the principal. This is most likely the worst banking experience I ever have had.

    Original Review: My family has a Trust with Wells Fargo. We have been fighting with this bank for a year now, after they misused assets of the trust and lost a good sum of money. Not very surprised with this company's track record of trying to rip their customers off. It's pretty crazy the legal system kind of supports this type of activity by letting them drag this on as long as they do. My advice is never use this company and get out now if you can.

Told the bank rep what I wanted done with my money. Also sharing information of accident the bank officer was told to put 20 away in savings for my young daughter to be able to go to college. The rest I wanted in my following checking account. Instead it was put into stocks. Lost it all except 55. Then another scammer came along with his pitch for his company. All the money is gone.

    I have been a faithful and loyal customer of WF since 2014 and had never had any issues. Within the past year however I'm severely concerned with the legal representation to protect their clientele. First I was scammed out of $400 to which WF threw up their hands and said there was nothing they could do, and I let it go. Now a court order which had never gone through due process acted upon a writ document without the legal party (my husband) be aware of any legal judgement against him of a debt that was initiated close to 6 years prior, and was being sent to an address where he hasn't lived since 2017. WF "legal team", as I was told, reviewed the writ order with a "fine tooth comb" to proceed in wiping our JOINT checking account to nothing right after I have a pending payment for rent for the month of December, and as I am not a part of this legal issue.

    We were charged for a court appointed officer delivering the writ to the defendant party, however there is no proof, signature, acknowledgment that anyone was ever contacted or physically was available to obtain the writ as my husband hadn't lived at the address, as stated, for FIVE YEARS. Yet based on hearsay WF just went "okie dokie looks legit" and cleaned us out. I'm now STILL waiting for a call back of their "legal team" to hear their attempt in describing their justification for bypassing all due process with no legitimate documentation to remove ALL of our money. After this legal issue is resolved I will ABSOLUTELY not continue banking with WF. It's a shame that customers and the money they earn for their family are not protected by those who are supposed to know what they're doing.

    I'm in escrow and needed to do a couple of wire transfers -- one at the beginning of escrow and one at the end of escrow. I made the first wire transfer a month ago on advice of a Wells Fargo rep over the phone who advise me (which is why I called). The rep told me that when I need to make my final escrow transfer, I can do it the same way but it'll be easier the second time because the Escrow Bank account is all set up now. Well, tonight, 11/16/2022, I tried to do the final escrow deposit online and it would not go through -- the rep gave me bad information.

    I called Wells Fargo, and Maria couldn't help me. Maria said banking nowadays is very difficult, said it's hard to get an appointment and some banks don't even answer their phones, etc. I asked for more help. She sent me to the escalation manager whose name is Olga. Olga was EXTREMELY RUDE to me over the phone. She spoke to me in a condescending manner and blamed me for the situation of me not being able to do the transfer, blamed me for the fact that she they couldn't get me a timely appointment at my branch. IT WAS SURREAL to say the least. I told her to stop talking down her nose to me in a condescending manner. She said she'll hang up on me if I yell. I said I'd stop yelling if she stopped talking down her nose to me. UNBELIEVABLE. First I'm given bad advice then I get the world's worst escalation manager who was only good at escalating one thing -- my blood pressure.

    There are not enough words to convey how awful Olga spoke to me over the phone. Eventually, she hung up on me! Even after we found a way to speak to one another rationally she simply hung up on me -- which only solidified my thoughts that she's horrible and should not be a customer service rep. What is wrong with Wells Fargo that they hire someone like her? One can only wonder. I shut down Bank of America in 1990 for bad customer service and never looked back. Sorry to say I have to yet again remove a banking institution from my life. Needless to say, I will change banks.

When I said I will call Corporate to get some help, ASST MANAGER said, Who is Corporate. I don’t know anyone named Corporate! Should have listened to congress to know what a horrible bank they are.

    I have been a customer of Wells Fargo for almost 15 years with checking and savings accounts, mortgages, LOC and Money Markets. I have a personal checking account, an MMA, personal savings, and two business checking accounts. Total funds are over $92,000. My accounts were seized on September 20th after a Wells Fargo banker and branch manager in Fort Pierce, FL decided I was engaging in fraudulent activity. I sent a wire on 9/16 and misspelled the name, so it was returned.

    I went back on 9/20 to send the funds to a different recipient working with the company I was investing with. The banker told me the routing number did not work, so I called the CEO of the company and got account information for another person on the project. I know the CEO of the company and I offered to invest in the project he and a group are doing in Europe. I was informed by the bank manager and banker that the wire was my responsibility and not covered for loss, and I agreed to that verbally 4 times. I said I would sign a document agreeing to that, since I know who I was sending the money to. At this point, the banker and manager went in the back office and came out after about 15-20 minutes. They informed me the routing number actually did work for the second recipient, but that the third recipient is a dead person.

    The third recipient was on the phone with the CEO to provide the account information and was very much alive. They told me they suspect me of fraudulent activity such as money laundering and would not accept that the funds in my account came from a sale of property, even though I deposited the check at their branch. By the time I got home, all five of my accounts were frozen. I could not pay my staff or vendors, nor pay my mortgage and bills. My accounts that were frozen on 9/20 were supposed to close on 10/4. I was notified late on 9/30 that closure was delayed to 10/18. Late on 10/14 I received notice that the closure was delayed to 11/1. I did not get an email on 10/28, but got it late on 10/31 that the closure on all accounts is delayed again from 11/1 until 11/15.

    All five accounts are being held hostage, with notification specifying "We are waiting for a bank to request a return of deposit to this account". There is NO deposit to return, the last deposit on 9/13 was a check of proceeds from the sale of one of my properties. The sale of the property and parties involved can be confirmed online in five minutes. A Suspicious Activity Report has also been filed on me. I cannot open new accounts, I cannot pay some of my bills, and this is a nightmare. There just cannot be a legal reason for Wells Fargo to continue to hold all of my money and destroy my credit.

    I had to borrow $15,000 and drain all my other savings to keep my company going, pay my staff and pay my bills. Wells Fargo is holding hostage over $92,000 of my operating and personal capital. No-one will discuss anything with me or tell me why or what is happening...or when it will end. I am over 60 years old, and this is crippling my business and my life. I have never participated in fraudulent activity; I am a small business owner for 38 years and invest in real estate on the side.

    My experience with this department started in April 2021 when I filed a claim for fraudulent activity on my account. The claim itself was originally denied for reasons unknown. Of course I kept pushing Wells Fargo because this yes in fact it was fraudulent and it took four months which was in August 2021 for them to actually do anything about it. At which point I received a partial credit into my account and Wells Fargo‘s reason for a partial credit was due to them only being able to do a partial amount due to a certain timeframe. Since August 2021 I have been pushing Wells Fargo and asking questions to which they did not answer until today. So yes I’ll save you from doing the math. Total time from when it started until today is roughly 18 months.

    I have been passed around to a total of 40+ “Case specialist.” Yes I put case specialist in quotes because I’m not sure if you can even call them case specialists. The reason I say that is because on numerous occasions I was lied to and given incorrect information regarding my case. On one occasion I was told by this “case specialist" quote that the reason my claim was denied was because I did not file the paperwork within a certain timeframe. At this point I’m confused because I know I did everything that I was told to do by Wells Fargo, so I’ve been asked this “case specialist“ what that timeframe was and he told me 60 days. At this point I’m fuming because I know for a fact that I filed the correct paperwork within that timeframe and then I explain this to him. At which point his entitled attitude seem to have disappeared and he got quiet.

    After that he told me that he was going to escalate it and then give me a call back within 10 days. That call never happened. It took me finally getting a hold of what was his supervisor and being told that he was on vacation. Numerous times that I have called and spoken to someone I’ll need to be passed around to somebody new again over 40 times and which being provided inaccurate information. Until today which again 18 months later I spoke to a representative that told me even though I’ve been lied to and given all kinds of inaccurate information especially over this past year that my claim is still denied. I didn’t pointed out the fact that numerous employees have violated your own code of ethics on a number of different occasions and the only response from her was, "I’m sorry."

    My advice to anyone would be to get away from this bank because it’s Full of dishonest people who have no clue what they are doing. I pointed out specific parts of their code of ethics that state that if Wells Fargo does make a mistake they will acknowledge the mistake and take action to fix it. They never did that. It also states that they earn their customers trust with honesty and integrity. In one specific email I even put in the definitions of both. And still nothing. The only thing they are doing is sweeping this under the rug.

    What I am doing is letting the world know my experience and the hell that I have been through for the past 18 months in dealing with this. So again my advice to you would be if you are associated with this company at all you need to run away from it as fast as you can. I can assure you that anybody and everybody that I know that currently has any kind of business with Wells Fargo will know the hell that I’ve been through over the past 18 months and Wells Fargo will lose their business.

    I made a purchase for a pair of sneakers for my daughter for school on a website that I was unfamiliar with. It was the only site I could find the sneakers on. I entered my banking information and selected process to continue on with the order. The screen went dark and I waited and waited and I was never given an order number nor did I receive a confirmation email. Weeks later, I still never received the sneakers. I quickly checked my banking information and saw that I was in fact charged. I instantly called the bank and informed them of what was going on. They credited my account.

    Approximately a month later, I received a letter that they reversed the charges and charged me completely for this particular incident that I reported to them. When I contacted the bank, I was told that the company provided information that documented the transaction. I quickly was shocked because I didn’t see how that was possible. Bank provided me with a phone number to the company which I have called multiple times, and always receive a busy signal. I did go to the bank. However I was refused my money back.

    I have a savings account with over $110,000. I'm only receiving an interest rate credit/deposit of .91 cents! That is nowhere near the .01% Wells Fargo "claims" they pay. It is actually closer to .00001%. (which would be $1.10). My other Wells Fargo savings account has had a balance of $1,000 for well over a year, and only receives .01 cent monthly. A Class Action lawsuit should be filed against Wells Fargo for screwing their savings account holders on interest payments made to their savings accounts! I am sure they screw over tens of thousands of the customers, and should be forced to pay what they say they do. I am leaving this sham bank ASAP!

    I am disgusted and appalled at Wells Fargo. I got scammed about a rental and I called immediately to file a claim and let them know so they can flag the receiver's account and help me retrieve my money. These are hard times and people are getting scammed left and right. So out of $3900 I was they initially reversed $2400. I was happy that I was able to get SOMETHING back, considering they supposedly have security systems and so called "fraud dept." but it's all a sham. They don't give two **.

    Today I checked my bank and they reversed the credit and put me in a HUGE OVERDRAFT, WITHOUT NOTIFICATION ON TOP OF IT!!! Want to tell me basically that it's not their problem that Zelle or Cashapp sent the money. (I didn't expect them to do much about cashapp- but at least flag the reported account) The fraud department is USELESS AND COMPLETELY POINTLESS.

    I've lost complete faith in wells fargo and I am switching bank. They don't care about their clients and I am for sure switching to another bank. It's not the first time they've pretty done whatever they want with your account but can't help you when you have a REAL problem. I've given them a chance considering it's not the first time they've either screwed me or caused me inconvenience, but I stayed with them. BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY life! Switch banks while you can. Flag the receiving account and/ or provide me their information so I can bring the additional information to the police. But they won’t even investigate the frauds account. OR credit my account back the 2400 it was credited! I was content and it made me feel like my bank cared at least.

I stayed with them after I noticed they overcharged my card with fees that did that apply multiple times (the second red flag). However, today, I finally just closed my accounts. I was on the phone with them for an hour trying to see how my card got connected to ApplePay, and after being transferred 5 times, the last person I spoke to who was supposed to be a Manager of some sort, hung up on me. Final straw. Can't trust them with my money or the security of it. After 10 years of service with them, will never come back.

We have a 35-year relationship with Wells Fargo with multiple personal and corporate accounts.

    This is not the first time they could not locate the corporate documents which we have provided at least 3 times previously. When you need to do anything other than deposit or withdraw money they are incompetent.

    Wells Fargo, first of all, has terrible recipient payment limits in place for their online payments and transfers via 3rd party vendor Zelle. I work for a company which primarily offers services via web application(s). I'm so used to our amazing customer service, and I expect the same from my bank. When I called to ask for the daily recipient payment to updated, which should only entail a 2 second database flag change, or have your Zelle integration team work with your vendor to make the change. Just flat out refusing to make an adjustment for TIME CRITICAL payments, is unacceptable. Instead I have no other option but to make 3 separate daily payments, each 24 hours apart, which puts me over a deadline. Having a policy which is so limiting to begin with is bad enough! But to be completely unwilling to assist a customer tells me, "You're not important to us, and neither is your business. We don't care if you go elsewhere for your business."

    I was wrongfully charged on my Wells Fargo Credit Card. I received no communication from Wells Fargo before my account was filed as 30-60 days late. The first communication I received was a phone call after my account had gone delinquent, & there was no mention that I was that late. Once I disputed this, there was a complete lack of consistency into when, how & if I had been contacted about my late account. I had not received any communication, but they had posted statements on my online portal (every other credit card I know of, reaches out in an attempt to get payment if a customer has fallen behind).

    When escalated to the Executive Office, it was requested that I get a letter from PayPal to corroborate the mischarging of my credit card. I did so upon their request but my case was closed out without any acknowledgement of my action. I was told that it is "illegal" to retract a credit reporting by multiple individuals within Wells Fargo. This is not illegal per the FCRA, which is inconsistent with what I was assured by these individuals. This organization appears to have Top-Down issues that is consistent with the issues that stem from previous executives to the new ones.

I called customer service and they told me after moving it to the highest person possible they would respond with in 10 days. I contact the local branch and they told me I had done all that was needed. They called me back same day and said bring in a Social Security Card.

    The card is lost and we have ordered a new one. I asked if they would accept a w9 form. They said no only a Social Security Card. So now my daughter is stuck on vacation and Wells Fargo has frozen her accounts and will not fix the internal problems they have to unfreeze her account. I wish on 4/26 they would have asked for the card. I wish on 5/24 they would have told me they need more. I really wish my daughter would have access to her money she earned and needs while on vacation. This company is heartless and very unorganized. Do not use them.

    DISGUSTING HOW WELLS FARGO TREATS U.S VETERANS. I served honorably in the USAF. I live overseas in the UK. For no reason that was ever given to me I had 60 days to reduce my balance to $0 and close my checking account with Wells Fargo. They said since I couldn’t provide a U.S address then I would have to close the account. This account was to help me receive my social security checks. I asked for an extension to the 60 days since I would be returning later this year to the states, but was denied. Once again, no reason was given. Thank God, for Navy Federal Credit Union who appreciates its Veterans where I was able to get a joint checking account.

    Wells Fargo will keep open the accounts for active duty U.S military who are overseas and rightfully so. My point is I served honorably, why are there exceptions for active duty, but not us veterans? Furthermore, they can keep accounts open, so why am I and all of us vets being penalized, because we choose to live overseas?

    Wells Fargo also has the nerve to charge a $10 service fee if you are beneath a certain amount of money in your checking account. I knew of this and that is why I kept my balance well over that threshold. Remember, I had 60 days to get my checking account to $0. Of course, I will be under the threshold, because I’m trying to get it down to $0. I complained and they gave me a credit of $2.50. REALLY? $2.50 is the tip you leave on a $10 meal in a restaurant. It gets better…

    I added Navy Federal to my Wells Fargo account so I could transfer my balance in my checking account with Wells Fargo to my new checking account with Navy Federal. Wells Fargo’s security can only send a text to a U.S cell/mobile number which I don’t have, since I live in the UK which meant my transfer was not going to take place. Also, if I wanted to change my security with Wells Fargo that it was going to be a $25 charge which should be free as it is with Navy Federal. I asked Wells Fargo to send me a check for the balance, but because I am not stateside that also couldn’t be achieved. Wells Fargo sent me by mail a form on options for closing the checking account. If I filled out the application I would have to get the form notarized by someone in the U.S. Once again, I live in the UK.

    At this point, I have $16.00 in my account. I called them up and asked what will happen to my checking account since there are so many restrictions? They suggested that I take my form that was given to me and have someone at the U.S Embassy in London notarize it. I said I have $16 in the account! The cost of going up there and then their fees it is absolutely stupid.

    The customer service agents at Wells Fargo suggested that I just take out the balance in my checking account from an ATM and I would be at $0. I am not stateside. Because when you do that here in the UK there are exchange rate fees. Long story short, I closed the account by writing a check to a stateside charity which got me to $0.

    How Wells Fargo handled this entire thing is disgusting. I am speaking for all U.S Veterans and anyone else who suddenly had to close their U.S checking accounts, because we live overseas. We served honorably. We deserve to live where we choose. We pay taxes and are not money launderers. Beware of this bank, because they will pull the carpet from underneath you for no reason and their customer service is beyond awful!. The stress I have had trying to find a U.S banking institution has been an absolute nightmare. Two thumbs up for Navy Federal! The State Department Federal Credit Union also should be recognized!

    Wells Fargo has implemented a glaring, non-customer oriented policy pertaining to checking accounts - even "Premiere" Checking accounts, which I currently utilize. They've decided to PUNISH customers who elect to receive hard-copy statements. Such customers are BLOCKED from viewing and/or downloading electronic (e.g., pdf) statements. This is tantamount to sticking a giant middle-finger in customer's faces.

    Given the state of the US Mail (if I get them at all) statements often arrive 15 days after cycle close date, so I either have to *try* to call customer service and request a pdf, or go the Wells Fargo portal and manually copy/paste transaction data into a spreadsheet.

Weeks went by and I called back after receiving no word - I was transferred 15 times with no one giving me any information. I then received a letter stating they would be clawing back the money bc they denied my claim. I called again and was told it was put into the wrong department and now a new claim would be opened. They took the money back though. I called again weeks later to see what was going on and again was transferred around with no regard. I spent days on the phone. This happened in January it is now the end of March and I have no idea what is going on.

    I have put 3 complaints into Wells Fargo with no action.

No explanation was given for the delay.

    Customer service refused to ask whether the request could be expedited so that the pending sale of the car could occur before the buyer gave up and went elsewhere.

On the other hand, I have often had helpful and friendly service, some of it, world class. Your experience may vary, of course. But here is the good, the bad, and the middling of my dealings with them. Securities investment advice and service have been world class. They helped me buy a new house after the bank's mortgage operation mishandled my application for a loan. They found me a bunch of free Social Security money - something they don't earn a commission on! They also helped me find a great CPA firm.

    Also, their retail bank tellers have always been friendly and 99% of the time, helpful. But the one time I wanted to speak to a branch manager, he seemed reluctant to take the time. Regarding their branch supervisors, I had occasion to reach out to them twice. One time I got a fantastic response. The other, none. Regarding their corporate call center, I found it unhelpful, plus they gave me incorrect information regarding escalation options. When I finally did escalate to the "Executive Office Case Specialist" of the "Enterprise Complaints Management Office", I could get no call back from the first assigned "Specialist". The second one was good at responding but no more helpful. Theirs is a mouthful of title but they didn't seem to have any real discretionary powers.

    I wrote personal letters to both the COO and the CEO about a retail bank issue. Neither one really responded; instead they kicked the can down to the ineffectual, but grand sounding, "Enterprise Complaints Management Office." Given the ever growing scandals at the company (days ago the WSJ said that there is now an accusation of gaming the FINRA arbitrator list), it seems odd to me that I could find no public email address for the CEO's office.

Is Wells Fargo doing this as a way to steal money from customers who only use their accounts to receive money, transfer funds, and send money to other people?

He did not want my copy of confirmation and really didn't seem to care that they have a problem in their system.

    I have been a Wells Fargo bank customer for over 18 yrs now. You could have $30 in your account and if a $40 transaction comes through they will return the transaction and charge you a $35 overdraft fee. Either way your account will still be overdrawn and you're paying a extra $35 to their bank. We are still in a pandemic last I checked plus BOA and Chase Bank have cut their overdraft fees $10. Capital One have eliminated the overdraft fee all together. Anyone looking for a good bank to do Business with I would advise Chase BOA or Capital One. I am definitely ending my banking relationship with Wells Fargo. The worst Bank in America.

    Wells Fargo is Terrible. Today is 1-11-2022 and I accidentally overpaid them on 12-20-2021 so I called them when I realized. Spoke to a representative. I told her about my overpayment. She said, "Ok I see it, that's a lot of money I have to put that under investigation." I said, "Excuse me have you ever heard of people wanting to be debt free for the New Year that would be me, And just for the record that's not a lot of money. I paid you electronically it was not a check or a money order there is nothing to investigate, Please send me my money." She said it will take 7 to 10 days.

    So here we go 22 days later and they still haven't sent me my money and they are still talking out the side of their necks. How insulting so I have stressed out and it's giving me anxiety that a bank would steal from a Sr. Citizen and the icing on the cake is if it was a consumer that owed them money they would destroy your perfect credit for $1. They have over $2000 of my dollars and there is nothing I can do but write these reviews and let people know. Nothing is ethical about Wells Fargo. The Worse of the Worst or lower.

    I cannot believe how HORRIFIC this bank has been to me and my family after my brother (a long-time customer) died. For MONTHS, they have made up sooooo many ridiculous excuses for not closing his accounts. It's clear - they want to keep his money. Some of the ridiculous things they've done- they keep asking me to give the legal documents I have proving that I am my brother's estate's representative and am entitled to receive the $$, even after I have already given them those documents TEN times in person, by email, uploaded to their website, and to the government with a complaint I filed that was sent to them. They told me today for the first time that I now must upload the documents from a computer that is not mobile with something that lists the account number. I am sure that once I have done that, they will make up something new like the documents also must be faxed, mailed, and delivered by Fedex, pigeon, and camel to be valid.

    They have also refused documents they said were stamped in the wrong place (which was just false, and they had no legal basis). And at one point after I had jumped through every hoop they had asked for, they decided that I wasn't getting the money, but they were instead going to give it to my half-sister so she would have to start from the beginning jumping through their hoops from scratch.

    However, my half-sister is NOT the beneficiary on the Wells Fargo beneficiary form and is NOT given the Wells Fargo accounts in my brother's will, so Wells Fargo was just lying again and trying to harass in another sleazy attempt to keep my brother's $$. It's unbelievable how awful this bank is. The Netflix documentary about Wells Fargo and their corruption is a must see. But I can tell you from experience - their corruption is far from being over. It definitely continues. And it horrifies me that their new con is cheating grieving families, who are already going through enough.

    My father passed away in 1/17/2021 and my mother is having a difficult time getting Wells Fargo to assist her with the process of probate. First the rent went from $967 to $1600. How is an elderly widow woman living on social security can afford that outrage increase. She renewed the homeowner's insurance in her name and the bank would not accept the policy she paid for because the loan is in my father's name and the policy is in my mother's name. Wells Fargo proceeded to choose the most expensive insurance they could find causing the rent and taxes to sky rocket. Illegally if my father died who are they authorizing to get a new insurance policy when my mother was told that getting new insurance policy in the name of a deceased person was illegal. So how is it not illegal for Wells Fargo to get a policy and not the surviving spouse.

    They keep stealing her money but no one from Wells Fargo is willing to help her. We have sent faxes, emails, even got legal service aid to speak to Wells Fargo and every time we call they can never find the paperwork, all of a sudden emails and faxes go missing to their convenience. Wells Fargo is the worst bank to get a mortgage with. No one knows what they are doing and paperwork gets lost. All they care about is ripping people off and stealing people's money. I need someone from that mortgage company to actually resolve the problem without any ** excuses.

I also made several calls to branches between North Bergen and Jersey City and no one answer the phone. I don’t understand why some branches are open and some are closed.

    I have been a member of Wells Fargo for going on 10 years now, It seems every time I turn my back there is another issue. I have waited weeks months for the money I've deposited. Wells Fargo never sends emails confirming anything for you. Wells fargo bank is a terrible bank. I have had fraud on my account more times than I can count on both hands. I have deposited checks and the atm got jammed so I the money from the check I deposited isn't available to me for a month which is ridiculous. When you deposit any cash or check it should be made available immediately unless of course it's a sunday. It should be available next business day at least.

    I am tired of having bills to pay and having to wait weeks and even months to be able to even access my money. It is not like they compensate you at all either that the other thing they do not care for their customers. I know because I am not the only one. I talk to family and friends and they all complain about the same repetitive issues w/ wells. If it is an issue I can't receive the money I deposited because of THEIR ATM or because of a mistake wells fargo made why does the customer have to suffer the consequences??? I really just don't get it. Make it make sense please. Not to mention when you have an issue everyone dread calling customer service because, customer service puts you on hold for hours and once you get a hold of someone it's never the "right department".

    They are constantly rude, disrespectful and act like they could careless, they sound like repetitive robots like they have certain lines they say. Every time you ask them to explain they repeat the same thing they said before like they are actors in a movie and can only say what's printed for them. I am tired of wells fargo. As soon as I get my last check resolved after "10 business days" after being told I'd have the money in my account in 4 business days. I got no confirmation, no email, nothing to show me any progress with it either it's like if the customer doesn't keep up with a mistake THE BANK MADE you are ** out of luck. They don't care if they give your money or not.

    Wells Fargo will no longer have my business. I'm done. Just like anyone if you make a deposit there should not be a month wait time before you can access your money. They should at least compensate you or give you interest for forcing you to wait on money you should've gotten the same day you deposited it. I will be switching banks. I just wanted to let anyone who thinks they want to open an account with wells DON'T DO IT. YOU WILL REGRET IT.

    I give Wells Fargo bank zero stars. Your money is not safe in this bank. We recently had fraud due to some ATM error. There were a $1000 withdrawn from our account, which we DID NOT authorize. We reported the issue right away and submitted a claim. After two claims, they advised we needed to submit yet a third one. The first claim went to the wrong department, and after the second claim was completed, they still have no answers for us and our money is lost. Throughout the process we have been transferred all over the place.

    The customer service is horrible. When I asked to speak to a supervisor, the claim was escalated to the Enterprise Complaints Management Office and the only thing they did was to give a provisional credit for the $1000 which is of course being taken back because the claim has been denied. It has been almost two months since we submitted the original claim. When we called to try and request the third claim because we still have no answers the representative was very rude and said they cannot submit another claim. We told him that is what was advised to us by another Wells Fargo representative earlier today when we called to get the outcome of the second claim and he would not even let my husband explain himself.

When you look at the reviews for eDreams there is endless amounts of people who have had the same exact issue as I. eDreams sent Wells Fargo a PURCHASE AUTHORIZATION(NOT A FLIGHT CONFIRMATION CODE, NO PROOF OF A TICKET.) which means according to "Visa Guidelines" they lose the dispute and I am on the hook for the flight that I never received from this company. So, my account is currently overdrawn and I refuse to pay for a service that I never received. This was escalated to complaints - complaints did nothing for me and told me the same thing.

    Really, Wells Fargo? There is NO SHORTAGE of people who have had THE SAME EXACT ISSUE AS ME and I am on the line for this money?

I've been with Wells Fargo for over ten years, but it's time to move on.

    I have had the worst experience with this bank and even more so with the fraud department. If I could give zero stars I would. The representative got frustrated when he couldn’t answer my questions so I asked for a supervisor. He proceeded to tell me they were busy and after repeatedly asking for one he told me he was disconnecting the call and hung up.

    I called back asking to speak to a manager about this. After going through multiple departments and employees I landed on a so-called manager of the fraud department. After I explained the issue and all of a sudden my account is locked for 24 hours and nobody can help me. I asked to speak to the manager's boss and after 45 min on the phone she was very rude, did not want to connect me to her manager. She started getting frustrated when I asked her who she reports to and since I wouldn’t wait the 24 hours for a call back terminated the call.

    I am on the 3 call with the fraud department and all of a sudden no manager is available in office, for a phone call, or responding to emails. I have been on the bone for 3 hours and no help. My account has been locked due to the first representative that was in my account and hung up on me. I have never had such bad service. I also informed them that the calls are being recorded in the beginning. They all are trying to cover up for each other and I have them recorded in lies. I can’t even cancel my account at this point let alone use my card to get gas or food for my family and myself.

    I had a checking account, the last transaction was 7/28/21, bringing the account to zero balance. Though I'm a premium customer and the account was linked to my other accounts, still BANK decided to close my checking account on 9/8/21 saying I did not do any transaction in August. They did not send any email to me, no surface mail - "saying they are going to close the account". But when I called the bank, they said BANK has all the rights to close an account whenever they feel like - just like they have rights open all the fake accounts in last few years. Wells Fargo has fallen down that low; I had never thought off - banking with them for 20 + years.

    Well firstly... I don't ever feel compelled to write reviews unless ultimately something makes me. Now I've backed with them for 5 years now and it's been nothing but Chaos. I'm a fairly smart woman and I know when something is happening with my money that was not done by my mistake. So I contact CS and the man who picks up I can't understand him whatsoever, which is difficult in itself so I asked to speak with someone higher up, very nicely I mind you also. So I get a man named Kenneth and he's a very nice polite man, but what he is telling me makes absolutely no sense. And I think he knows it doesn't but still try to palm it off as this is a normal thing blah blah blah and I know it's not because it doesn't happen every time.

    I got sent money through Zelle and it usually comes immediately and posts to my account. This time it didn't. They took it. And he says because I had already pending purchases which I don't understand because they weren't pending when they went through to the purchasing company. And the amount was taken out of my account when I purchased it and now they are saying my money from zelle went towards that, but how when it was already paid. Anyways it doesn't make sense. They are never quick to say, "We messed up. We are sorry. Here ya go we fixed it." And this has happened many times. And 2 times I've actually proved they were wrong so they had to fix it. I should of closed my account then, but I didn't but I'm definitely doing it now. I don't know if this will help anyone. I probably just needed to vent more than anything lol but just be cautious.

    Wells Fargo is the oldest bank in the United States and holds a great reputation because of that; however, in recent years (2012 - present) it has reached a pinnacle of incompetent and blatantly inconsiderate customer service reps. The customer service representatives will find any way to avoid helping you with your problem and transfer you to a department that can assist you. This, each time, resets your line in the customer service queue and has you waiting at least 20 minutes 3 times in a row. This can cost you 1 hour of time. It is completely inconsiderate of their customer's time.

    Sometimes (as has happened to me) they will hang up the call to avoid helping knowing that you'll have to wait another 15 - 20 minutes to get ahold of another customer service rep. Conclusion — great customer service is a relic of a time gone by, as it were, and those companies that put forth the energy and effort to make the time of their customers a priority, will most definitely have a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

    So, I have had an account with Wells Fargo for 15 years. I have encouraged friends and family to open Wells Fargo accounts. My account was hacked at the end of July. I received a notification that a payee had been added to my account. So, I immediately called Wells Fargo and while I waited on hold for 20 minutes, I tried to log into my account but the password had been changed so I could not. I spoke to someone who said it seemed clear that someone hacked my account and stole my money and that they will give me the money back provisionally while they conduct an "investigation" but I should not worry.

    I had to close my account, get new checks and a new debit card which took 14 days to receive. I did not have access to my money. I had to switch over all of my accounts to the new bank account information which was quite a chore. Then after over 2 weeks, I receive a letter that they have decided that either I performed the transactions or someone that I gave permission to performed the transactions. They took the money back and closed the case. I called, they don't do appeals and cannot tell me anything else. They will mail me documents pertaining to the case but it will take 14 more days and there is nothing else I can do. Thank goodness it was the end of the month and not much was in there, it could have been A LOT worse.

    Wells Fargo does not protect your money. Now I have to find a new bank and go through the process of switching everything over yet again. They allowed my money to be stolen and then they accused me of lying and stealing my own money. I have put hours in on the phone with them. 15 years as a customer with zero issues doesn't matter.

When I called the number I reached an automated system which did not allow me to speak to anyone and which did not have any option that seemed to fit my situation. I called three other Wells Fargo numbers and, in every case, got the same automated system.

    I finally got through by repeating over and over, “Talk to a representative,” over the top of the recording. Eventually this worked and, after waiting 4 min., I connected with a representative. We were then immediately disconnected so I started over again. The next time, after 4 more min, I spoke with a human and got an appointment. By the time it was all done, I had spent nearly one hour and 45 min., almost as much time as it would have taken to drive up and back. This is wretched customer service. Do not use this bank.

    Applied for a credit card online through Wells Fargo. Granted, my credit score is well over 700, so when I didn't get a response I immediately wondered what was up. Four days later I get a letter in the mail. It states "IDENTITY CAN'T BE VERIFIED"... I called #WellsFargo at 1-800-967-9521 and they told me I had to go into a #WellsFargo branch & prove my identity.

    So, yesterday I go into the Wells Fargo branch in Ocala, Florida, give the paper that Wells Fargo credit card mailed me, that had the account application number on it, gave them my driver's license, social security card, and 3 pieces of mail. One piece of mail was my utility bill, another my homeowners insurance, and then the one I got from Wells Fargo. They said that wasn't enough. They asked me to show 2 utility bills. Who in the heck has 2 utility bills? Everywhere I have lived I have gotten 1 utility bill. And since when is a driver's license, and social security card not good enough to prove your identity?

    With my credit score as high as it is, I know I would have been approved. I know dang well there's more to this. I feel as though they no longer wanted to offer the credit card promotion I applied for. Welcome to America where a driver's license, social security card, and 3 pieces of mail with your name and address on it, isn't enough to prove your identity, but they want everyone to be allowed to vote without having an ID. Give me a break Wells Fargo. You singled me out. I was going to open up a checking account that day too while I was in that branch, but didn't because obviously my driver's license and social security card wouldn't be enough to do that either. Today I called to speak to a Supervisor, and was hung up on.

    Do not apply for a Wells Fargo credit card unless you have more than a driver's license, social security card, and mail from homeowners insurance, utilities & them! You will need 2 utility bills apparently to prove your identity! Such a disgrace, and inconvenience! I'm going to post all the facts on Facebook and social media outlets too.

Today, I went to inquire about getting my son who is about to go off to college, a credit card. I have 2 accounts at Wells Fargo and my son has one account in his name. I have an exemplary credit score, over 800. The employee who was assisting us said Wells Fargo no longer issues credit cards to people like my son. I was bewildered and confused by her statement. I explained that I wanted him to start building credit and also wanted him to have a credit card for emergency purposes if he needed. I asked if I could get a credit card and he could be an authorized user on the card to build his credit in that manner. She said, "You cannot do that with a Wells Fargo credit card." What???

    Not wanting to waste anymore of my time with this obviously incompetent employee, my son and I left and went to our credit union where we received a credit card application upon request. Imagine that!!! Please everyone.... go to your credit union. If you don't have a credit union, I urge you to join one. The teller at the credit union completely understood what I was wanting to do and helped me achieve it. I cannot believe I walked out of a Wells Fargo bank (Catoctin Circle, Leesburg, VA) empty handed! This was a gross example of an epic business failure. To make it even more laughable, the Wells Fargo employee told me to put my son on my Target credit card to build his credit. I don't even have a Target credit card.

A few months later, I'm here to report, it is, in fact, that bad. With all the changes that Wells Fargo has been making recently, I wouldn't even be surprised to get an email saying "this is no longer a Wells Fargo product". I feel like they have two employees working in the business debit/credit department handling requests for thousands of applicants. I sent my application and never even got a courtesy "your application has been received". I was ok with it until a month passed by and I'm like "????".

    PLUS, they use a secure mail portal that is glitchy, so you truly don't even know if your application went through. If they used a more intuitive email platform, I probably wouldn't even be that upset. However, I feel like there's a good chance that my application got lost in their glitchy email platform. I'm also very tech savvy, but the platform they use is not intuitive at all. I can't imagine less tech savvy people trying to navigate it.

    I tried to get in contact with them, but no response. Somehow, they managed to set up an automatic email reminding me that I had until June 12 to finish my application, but as soon as you send in your application, radio silence. I raised this up with Wells Fargo (through my personal account) and their excuse is that they've had an influx of applicants. (Basically, we don't even deserve a courtesy email saying our application is received and how long we should expect to wait around). Anyhow, I've asked to withdraw my application a couple weeks ago, and lo and behold, no response. Don't waste your time trying to get a business debit or credit with Wells Fargo.

    Wells Fargo provides its consumers a free FICO score on their website. I used to think this was a nice service, but recently learned that the FICO score they provide is false, and downright misleading. When I check my FICO score with Experian the score is always higher than what Wells Fargo list it as being. Recently, and for no explainable reason my score on Experian fell 25 points from 844 so I made some phone calls to both Wells Fargo (my score with them dropped 22 points) and Experian.

    First 5 of the points on the Experian boost site will not transfer over to creditors because they were for utilities, or cell phone services and having my bank account connected to Experian. Other than those 5 points neither Wells Fargo or Experian initially could tell me why there was a difference in the FICO score between the two. And Wells Fargo listed 4 item that they say could be hindering my score. Item one was that my Mortgage and Car Payment account balance had not been reduced enough when compared to the original loans. This was regardless of the fact that I have always made my payments before they were due, and never missed or was late with a payment, and my car payment was two months ahead because I paid a little extra each month. They also said there was no recent revolving balances, Too many accounts with balances and too many inquires in 12 months.

    Factually, I had no recent revolving balances because over the last year I paid off all my credit cards resolving to pay with cash only in the future. But it made no sense to say I had no balances then say too many accounts with balances. The only balances I have are Mortgage and Car Payment and they could not explain how two accounts with balances were hindering my FICO Score. As to the inquires I only had one inquiry and it was because I was considering purchasing a new home, and I had one inquiry last year for a total of two inquires. They could not explain how 1 inquire in the last 12 months was too many.

    Finally, the Wells Fargo employee explained that the FICO score they provide is for Education benefits and not an actual score. She explained it was based of my last actual score the month before and because it was for education purposes it was not going to be the same score as Experian reports to them when someone is seeking credit. Neither company could explain the sudden drop in my score, in fact Experian stated the computer decides the scores based on creditor's input, but they still could not explain the recent loss of points instead saying it was a snapshot in time and it could go up or down each month. Experian did explain that not having revolving credit balances hurts the FICO score but other than that had no reasonable explanation.

    I told Wells Fargo they are doing a disservice to the customer to tell them, "Here is your recent FICO score provided by Experian," when they do not actually provide the Experian FICO Score. The different between the scores are not much but a different nevertheless, Wells Fargo -816, Experian 824 and 824 is the score after I removed access to my banking information. I prided myself on paying off all my credit cards and within one year raised my score 100 points.

    It is bad enough that the three credit reporting companies have different ways to determine your FICO score (Equifax- 847, Transunion-833, and Experian- 824) without having a creditor provide false and misleading FICO scores and only tell the truth about the score when you question them. This is a disservice to the consumer. I would close my Wells Fargo account except that it is 15 years old, and the older an account the better the score for FICO purposes. It is not likely I will ever use the card again.

When I called to make the claim, they told me that the bank could do whatever it wanted in their opinion and they did that, abusing my trust.

They have shipped me to overseas phone banks during normal business hours, provided me with fraudulent information from their sales staff, lied about call history, and ignored my complaints. Wells Fargo has never logged a call properly in 30 years!! There is no history of my numerous issues with their service...they say they record every call, but have failed to provide me a transcript for any. They are truly a shady bunch of characters that have been caught several times (CEO gone) but never learn. Stay far away.

    I have banked here for over 4 years. Had to change banks as there Are no TD banks in Georgia. I keep sometimes up to 100k in the bank account. It's my personal accounts. Out of the blue they tell me to get my money. They are closing my accounts. I can only assume they have something against people who take their money out of the atm. Since Covid I have been using cash again. So I hit the atm twice a week. But all they can tell me is they don't want to do business with me anymore. My credit is great and I'm a business owner. Bad management. But good news is my family businesses are all with Wells Fargo. We will be moving all of them right away. Beware if you use them!

    I've had Wells Fargo Bank for about 2 years now. Over the course of the past eight months has been nothing but hell. At least four times my debit cards have been turned off for potential fraud without even a phone call to verify my charges. Wells Fargo likes to control where you spend your money and how much you can spend. I should be free to go wherever I would like to go and be able to use my card freely without them suspecting fraud. They also like to take money out of your account wrongfully and then you have to argue and fight with them and file a claim and wait 10 days to try to get your money back. You know they have no problem taking the money out of the account in error.

    Why can't they instantly put that money back in the account? Why do I have to wait 10 days to receive my money back? Today is a $1,400 error and I have to once again file a claim to receive my money back and I have to wait 10 days to see my $1,400 back in my account. I no longer trust Wells Fargo. I no longer feel content banking with Wells Fargo and once my account is corrected I will be withdrawing my money and I will be going to another bank for services. And seriously I'm to the point of contacting a lawyer and having a lawsuit placed on Wells Fargo because this is unethical and this is unacceptable.

    You can't take money out of people's account in error and then make them fight to get that money back. You should be able to place that money back in my account as fast as you took it out. I thought banking with Woodforest was bad if you don't bank with Wells Fargo. I don't recommend it. You know what if I needed that $1,400? What if I needed to pay things or buy things and now I can't do that because I have to wait 10 days to receive my money? Not everybody is as fortunate as I am to have the extra money in the bank. This is sad.

    I have had an extremely horrible experience with Wells Fargo as of recently. They have been placing holds on my checks that I receive from customers in my business account and I called to find out what’s going on. I need to firstly tell me that there is suspicious activity on my customers account so they’re holding it for my benefit to protect me and this is after being on hold for hours, waiting half a day getting transferred, hung up on, being talked rude to.

    So against my better judgment I called my customers who wrote me a check and relayed that and they said, "No there’s nothing suspicious in our account. Everything’s fine. Our bank says it’s on your end," so basically Wells Fargo completely lied to me and this is not the first time they’ve done this a lie to me and me going off the information. I called one of my customers and basically told him that there is suspicious activity on their account. So they proceeded to call Wells Fargo and their bank and basically there’s nothing suspicious on their end and I knew knew that in the back of my head.

    I knew better but I was going off what they told me so I made an ** out of myself and my customers not only was disrespectful it’s almost rude and caused me tell them that their checks are bad and they’re not, based off what your bank tells you. And the check his post to my account on the 28th but it’s still being held. It shows on my online statement that it’s been posted but it’s not and that’s all I called. That’s what I was calling about.

    I try to file a complaint with them. They told me there’s a complaint department with Wells Fargo doesn’t have a phone number or an email to call or talk to people or what kind of deals that. So now that I’ve been lied to multiple times hung up on should have to do yesterday and all are charging me fees when I deposit this check on the 28th and then give me overdraft fees after the fact so therefore basically holding my money to charge me fees and his customers of mine. They’ve cleared over $8000 in checks in the last month from them so their checks are good 100% but your Wells Fargo lies about it and then gives nonsense reasons!!

    And as a matter fact last week I made a deposit for $4000 and they told me they lost the deposit. They lost it and then went from not that they didn’t lose it there was an anomaly in the system to then it was just a hold and this is all just on one transaction so I’m just sick of being lied to I feel like I’m a pest when I should be the customer should be treated with respect. I don’t feel like I’m being treated with respect and it’s A bunch of crap. If I treated people like that because I do run a small business I would not have any business and it's like the people they put in places of power there to they’re just good at shuffling it off to another person or transfer into another department. You get lost in translation and by the time you finally do talk to someone you’re so freaking upset that you don’t know what to do.

    The lady yesterday told me that she doesn’t appreciate me cussing your swearing in the phone. I just told her I don’t appreciate them lying to my face and then having me use that information to lie to my customers because they could provide for some reason. I told her it’s way worse to lie to someone then it is to swear. Not even in the same ballpark. I just don’t understand these people. How they can treat people like this and get away with it. It’s a bunch of crap and I’m gonna go to a different bank real shortly here. I’m so fed up and frustrated with wells.

    This bank is horrendous to the "little" guy. If you don't have some kind of fancy checking account, forget about getting any of your money available to you for up to 2 days. Because my employer does not allow direct deposit, I mobile banked my check and it is being held hostage in my bank account as "pending". When I took the physical check to the bank tellers to ask if they would make a small amount available to simply grocery shop (they could see I only had $0.30 available, but well over $1200 pending), they refused to release any money and require that I wait for their system to release the funds "tomorrow". When I called the Corporate Customer Service number, they were no more helpful.

    Also, a friend of mine tried to make a CASH deposit to my account on my behalf and they refused to take a CASH deposit because he was not the account holder. I will be leaving this bank tomorrow when my payroll clears. Unless you keep a lot of money in this bank and are able to get their premium services, find a friendly credit union like I am doing.

    My parents worked with a Wells Fargo advisor for decades. When they were 70 years of age he sold them a universal life policy that would pay death benefits to their children when they both passed away. The policy was funded by my parents as the advisor worked with them to use money from their annuities to pay the annual premium. After 13 years the policy built up sufficient cash value so that he told them that they didn't need to pay the annual benefit and the policy would draw down from the internal cash value. Ultimately, (year 19) the internal cash value was no longer sufficient and the policy cancelled. Clear lack of follow up by the advisor caused a significant $ loss. I wouldn't trust Wells Fargo for anything.

    My wife & I have been customers of Wells Fargo for over 8 years maybe longer, at one time our home was financed through them. We are self employed, owning 3 businesses with all of the business accounts being with Wells. One business deposited over 4.4 million in the last 2 years and another over half a million. The covid hit us hard but we stayed in business and kept our employees/contractors employed. Long story short, we were denied a second PPP for some weird reason (till this day I'm still confused about it) and might have to repay the 1st PPP ($176,250) if unforgiven, by the way I know that's outside of Wells's jurisdiction, the SBA controls that.

    Anyhow, funds are low and we currently have a signed agreement with our supplier to do another project. So we figured we'd just take out a small personal loan of $50k with our bank, "Wells Fargo" to help keep things leveled on the personal & business side of things. Mind you, my credit score is 784 and my wife is 719, our DTI is slightly under 28%, we pay everything on time, this shouldn't be an issue....So we thought!! We were so for sure that if times got tight, we would always have our bank to fall back on. Right? Not!!! Wells countered my loan request with a offer of $30k for 36 months with a 7.79% interest rate (give or take). I accepted it.

    While sending the docs over I'm alerted by an email from Wells Fargo stating my request was declined!! Reason....Too many inquiries!! Yep, too many inquiries. Listen up...It doesn't make any sense to show loyalty to these big time banks, especially if you're **. I personally have friends of different nationalities way credit worst than mines of course, go right into these big banks & walk out smiling. I hate playing the race card but after so many denials these financial institutes sure make one feel as if it is. You would think that a bank would understand or at least look past a business owner having multiple inquiries. Anyhow...That's my story. I hope those of you who are doing the right things & being responsible, don't get let down like we did. We will get this project done, without the help of Wells Fargo, and they will see those deposits coming in & when it get back into the millions we will walk in a branch and close every account open.

I will say that even though the refi added a little on top of the existing loan, the customer service and flexibility of my new bank is worth every penny. In my opinion Wells Fargo is extremely untrustworthy. From system issues to pulling extra payments; any possible problem that a business could encounter when conducting customer-facing activity, they have had, and I have been on the other end.

    To add, ZERO remorse from the customer service team (at least ones that I have dealt with). HEART, HEAD, HEART: very simple communication philosophy when dealing with customer concerns.

I was told it might take up to 2 weeks to get this ability as some sort of pin number generator will need to be sent to me to fulfill the requirements of doing this securely. It's now March 24, 2021 and I still do not have the ability to do wire transfers from home. In spite of multiple complaints to the bank I'm still waiting. I don't expect this kind of customer service from such a well established bank. Neither should you.

    I am a small business owner, sole proprietor, and in the past I had always used PayPal for my banking. Everything was fine, except that I couldn't deposit checks in the account due to an error I made the first time I attempted their mobile check cashing services. As a result, I decided a couple of months to open an online business checking account to make the check depositing process easier. I was really needing a good online account because with this pandemic, I try not to go out unless its absolutely necessary. Luckily, I work from home so I can get supplies mailed to me, and I just send out my customers orders through my personal mailman, so it's rare when I need to absolutely go somewhere. On top of that, I am currently without a vehicle, actually been saving money to purchase a new one, and I live in a very rural area so the only way I can get places is for my boyfriend or his parents give me rides if absolutely necessary.

    Anyways, I decide to open an account with Wells Fargo because I can do everything online they say. I upload all the necessary documents they require for my business and my personal info to verify my identity, and all is good. I get approved and I immediately deposit two checks, one is a stimulus check and the other is a check from the State Comptroller's Office due to an overpayment. They are accepted and approved and deposited in my account no problem. I then start the process of rerouting all my business related payments to my new business checking account and I have by now received my Debit Card and activated it. All is good for a couple more weeks.

    Then out of nowhere...BOOM! I get a letter in the mail from Wells Fargo Data Management saying that they don't have the proper information on my business and need me to make an appointment with a branch and take my business documents (which I had already uploaded when I opened the account) up there to show them within 20 days or they would close my account! They said that the documents I uploaded didn't show the name of the owner, which is not true, and they also needed a better description of what my business does! Okay so instead of just asking me to send my documents again, and having me send a better description of my business, they want me to go to a branch and do that. Or else they will close my account that they have let me use fully this whole time!

    That makes no sense Wells Fargo! I have an online boutique shop that sells vintage goods and antiques, I have had all my payments routed to that account now and I have between two and three thousand in there right now. I know that my business documents have both my name and my DBA name on them. My credit is excellent across the board and never had any financial issues or problems in the past.

    I am going to call the customer service number they supplied and tell them my situation and see if they will let me resubmit my documentation and let me explain my business over the phone with them. My boyfriend or his parents would have to take time off work to take me to a branch during business hours just to show some documents and I am not going to ask them to do that. I will update this later on if everything goes smoothly and we are able to work things out satisfactorily. If not then I guess I get to move my money back to PayPal and close the account.

    Today, while at the drive thru window in Wake Forest, NC, the teller was very RUDE! I called out the inconsistencies with a service I have been previously granted; the teller advised that it should have not been allowed. I then stated I should just take all my money out of the bank at WF, she then commented in a very sarcastic voice, "It's your choice." So, WF that's how your employees treat your customers? I've been a customer for over 20 years when the bank was called Wachovia. I do have choices and it's apparent I'm not valued as a customer. Did the teller not realize without customer (me) there is no need for her to have a job? She refused to give her name, but I'm not accepting this type of treatment when there are other banks. #poorcustomerexperience. Do better Wells Fargo!

    Friday morning on 03/12/2021 at the Floyd Rd., Mableton, Ga. location branch #0066950 07. Arrived at drive thru line at 10:20 AM. There was only one car-one customer in front of me. I sat for 30 minutes - could not back out due to other cars behind me, but I did get to watch all the other customers pull in different lines and pull off. I would love to know why in the world would this cashier/teller could not have said, "Sir you will need to go into the branch for this transaction instead of making customers wait for so long on a Friday at that." Well when we finally make it up to do our transaction which was to deposit one check and cash a 200.00 dollar check from the state of GA income tax refund made out to my husband and myself. The cashier would not accept because my husband did not have his drivers license on him but he did have his picture ID on his weapon permit and several of his charge cards.

    Now I want you to know I have had an account with this bank which is known right now as WELLS FARGO since the early 1970's. F/K/A-- NBG, First American, Wachovia, Southtrust etc.... I have a checking account, savings account, IRA account, and brokerage IRA account - believe these accounts total up to more than the 200.00 state of GA tax refund. The girl could have said just, "Deposit the check into your checking account then withdraw the 200.00." No. She would rather argue that my husband did not have the proper ID--and then I had to listen to him that BS like this is why he does not do his banking with WELLS FARGO. So I drove around to front of building to go in and talk to a manager or someone who could help.

    Thank you ALEX ** for realizing I was not a criminal--I was just a senior lady wanting to cash a 200.00 check from the state of GEORGIA for a tax refund. ALEX also refunded me a fee that was charged to me for ordering checks, which I only order maybe once every five years. But if you remember I told you I had pulled in the drive thru line around 10:20 and finally leaving this bank at 11:22 over 1 hour and received a lot of stress, aggravation, and headache. Thank you teller-CHA'RAE and hope you enjoy the rest of your Friday because you ruined mine. Thank you ALEX for helping me.

    Since January 2021 the last two issues are leading me to close our accounts with Wells Fargo for good. The first issue was after we had a one time charge of around 12 dollars for a 4 mile Uber ride, Uber tried taking 83.00. I phoned Wells Fargo customer service right away to inform them this was a unauthorized transaction. The rep stated we should be issued a new card, and yet she also stated a new card would STILL not prevent Uber from getting 83.00. My question was why issue us the new card at all? Why not stop or prevent Uber from taking this unauthorized charge, Is it too much to expect a bank to not allow charges to post for services we did NOT receive or authorize.

    Wells Fargo allowed Uber to attempt to take the 83.00 six times until Uber finally got it. And this was after we received a new card. The claims specialist noted Uber should not have had our new card information. Had to receive another card. We were refunded 83.00 but there is still no excuse for why WF allowed this 83.00 charge to be attempted and decline 6 times after they were informed we received no service from Uber for 83.00. And they admit "things are erased from account history."

    The other issue I read others mention I noticed as well. Online account summary balances are not creditable. It should be simple, your available balance minus pending and posted transactions. Nope I checked my bank balance and it was 108.67 so the only change I made was paid 25.00 for one bill. Which should have made my balance 83.67. Nope when I checked it was 44.44. So I again phoned customer service and she attempted to explain away all the reasons for the lower balance. I had authorized a online purchase from Walmart of 39.23 on 2/11/2021. She stated that some merchants do a "soft pull" just to see that the balance is available and then do a hard copy pull when the items are delivered.

    It still does not make sense because this purchase was made and delivered between 2/11 -2/13 so why does it take until 2/18 to take the 39.23 out? They should have and could have kept it pending on record, to keep track of it. Is it too much too expect WF to keep track of pending transactions and have it match customers' available balance. Also it was put on as a recurring payment which it was Not, it was a one time order.

    I also mentioned to this WF Rep the Uber 83.00 being taking out from Uber even with us receiving a new card that Uber did not have access to. And her response was she stated Visa gives out our debit card information to merchants (like Uber). I would suggest Wells Fargo customers keep watch of their available bank balances and take a screenshot right away of it before it "changes."

Wells Fargo took the claim and had not reponse for the merchant on the claim. On 5th of Jan 2021 I was told by the Claims Specialists that no response had been given by the merchant on. On Jan 14th I would be give the full credit of 340 dollars back to my account (I had spent up 4 hours at this point handling the claim over the phone).

    I waited for the 14th of January and nothing occurred. On Jan 15th I called into Wells Fargo and then the systematic intentional Frustration by Wells Fargo began. I was placed on hold several times and had my phone calls dropped. On that day I had spent over 4 hours on the phone with Wells Fargo on hold and verification processes and jumping through hoops and passing to multiple agents.

    Once reaching a senior level claims specialist, I was give a completely different story (passed the deadline) that there was a response by the Merchant and they had made a different claim (that the fees was based upon shipping and not customs taxes). Without getting in extensive details, none of the claims made any sense and it should a large amount of misunderstood words and lack of knowledge and lack of common sense by the claims specialists on what had happened. Even though I retold the exact events at least 15 times; even in the end the claims specialists seemed unable to correctly duplicate my statements and repeatedly alter my statements to fit her narrative.

    I am shocked how I was treated and lied to for the last several and how Wells Fargo had a fixed system to deny claims and a clever process to purposely frustrate customers to the point of giving up. I am very very very disappointed by Wells Fargo that the 340 meant more to them than being fair and doing the right thing and conducting themselves professionally and keeping a long time customer. I am now shopping for a new bank due to these events.

    These guys are the best banking institution we have ever worked with. They protect your account fiercely and provide you the tools to manage your money wisely. Additionally they have removed fees throughout the years that many other institutions continue to charge. They have embraced modern security solutions such as the as yet cracked AES encryption methods on your bank transactions and easily forgive overdraft fees, especially when you put money into your account the within a day or so. Local branches have personal touches and staff that don't push you to do anything at all. They will however give you the options if you ask for them so you don't have to go looking for them.

    Finally, I have never had a reason to mistrust them on my accounts.

Now, I truly understand why customers are leaving this poor customer service bank.

    First of all y’all system is out of Sequence. When someone has the money to pay for an item the transaction should come out that exact same day.... I had $3 dollars in my account and magically went negative the next day on payday. I had to pay 35 bucks.... There shouldn’t be any fees while using your card especially if you have money on there... My ending balance was not the same as what I had.... I have nothing linked up to my card... It’s always something new... The funny part it doesn’t show my ending balance. It shows theirs... I’m pretty sure I had 5 bucks like I said... And I literally couldn’t find my transaction with my ending balance. It somehow disappeared.... I see what y’all are doing...and it’s not cool! Y’all need to fix your system.... It’s like they know you’re broke and Purposely post a transaction that you paid or never seen before.... This ain’t fraud...just bad company and inaccurate system.

    My daughter found a way to bypass the controls on her iPad and charge a substantial amount of money over the course of three or four days. This was during a holiday period, so the transactions didn't show up for several days. We were *prompt* in alerting the bank. They claim to have safeguards against suspicious activity outside of normal purchasing habits, and this was wildly outside normal purchasing habits. They *failed* to stop them on their end.

    We are now hearing that we *may* not be allowed to dispute the charges because of the quantity. There is *nothing* anywhere in their terms that mention quantity, only timeliness, and we alerted them two days after it showed up in the account. It's hard to argue that's not timely. Depending on the outcome of the claim, I and my wife will be changing banks, but regardless of the outcome, trying to get out of their obligations by hiding behind quantity of transactions is unacceptable and goes against everything on their website.

    I have had a Wells Fargo account many years in the last few years. Noticed a huge change in the way they process my transactions. Most concerning is missing money then magically appears again! I gave had this happen several times that I had to call with no resolve or explanation of why I had 100 yesterday then it disappeared and 2 days later it's back in my account. Really weird. I’m closing my account. In my opinion I don't trust Wells Fargo anymore! It takes over a week for normal purchases to be processed. These purchases stay as pending for over 7 days. Seems Wells fargo can not keep up with processing and makes many mistakes with my money scary! Also my work direct deposit always was in my account around 2:30AM now it doesn't show up till 7:30 AM. I’m in the process of closing my account. Very wary of Wells fargo’s practices!

    I reached out to Wells Fargo asking for assistance in regards to my monthly amount that is due. I spoke to an assistant Randy and he was no help and said there was nothing he can do to help me. I asked to be transferred to a supervisor. He connected me to Alexi. She was also no help and said there was nothing Wells Fargo can do or offer me. I asked about a lower monthly payment, payment plan etc. Her reply was again there was nothing she can do or offer me. There is a lot of people that are struggling due to what's currently happening in this country. A big company likes Wells Fargo seems to only care about their bottom line and not their customers. I don't recommend using Wells Fargo. The only reason I give a one star is because there was no zero star available. I am very disappointed in Wells Fargo and how they handled my situation.

    When I send money to my friends in Zambia to their ministry I use Wells Fargo Bank. The ministry feeds widows and orphans. It is always expedient to get the donated money to them as quickly as possible. When I send the money by wire transfer I go into WFB. I am always met by the friendliest most amazing customer service reps, and the paper work is very easy to fill out to send the moneys.

    All I need is an insurance check endorsed to pay my roofer after a hail damage claim. I drove 90 miles round trip to a Wells Fargo only to be told I needed to make an appt. What? It takes five minutes to endorse? Then I called the customer service and they were going to overnight me a Fedex "mailer". That's been five days ago. I've almost paid my mortgage off and will be looking for a vacation home. One thing I know for sure is I will never finance through this company again.

    They have blocked my debit card twice this month when trying to Make a purchase. They said it was fraud. I called bank and let them know it is my cell phone company and they unblocked card. Then tried to re-make purchase and they blocked again.

    Zelle is one of most easiest ways to pay my bills. Wells Fargo Bank is very smart by getting this app. Log on, add my landlord's phone number, time to pay rent. Add their phone number select. Now we both will get a message it sent.

    I would love to give them negative stars if possible. About less than 2 years ago we purchased carpet and tile from LA Carpet who used Wells Fargo Bank to finance us. We receive statements monthly and make the payments from the same address for all this time. Out of nowhere they stopped mailing us statements and when we call they had no reason why (they claim). But what they really are doing is trying to make money on late fees. This is how crooked Wells Fargo Bank is. We can't wait to pay this loan off and be free of them. Will never do business with Wells Fargo and refuse if any merchant offers them up. Wells Fargo has a business culture of deception!
