General Discussion / Checking account frozen

« on: May 13, 2015, 08:42:34 PM »

I initiated a transfer from one account to pull money from my wells fargo account on sunday. I never got a confirmation so I hit submit again.
The bank pulled the money twice which overdrafted my WF account.
Now wells fargo says my account is frozen until Feb 26 at which point it will be closed and they will mail me a check. They are freezing $25k until then. Can they do that?
Is there somewhere I can file a complaint?
Looks like a block is put on my CC as well which would really stink if they closed it because I have about $800 in pending rewards.

« on: April 04, 2014, 11:29:51 AM »

I use google music to play music on android tablet. When you have an artist they recognize, google music downloads album artowork from database related to that artist. Problem is, some of the artwork is not a match and some childrens cd's display not so appropriate pictures. Anyone know a way to stop this?

Up In The Air / Booking award ticket on sw.com

« on: August 06, 2013, 10:59:11 AM »

When I book an award ticket for 3 passangers, (and this has happened more than once) only one of the passangers gets ticketed and it gives me an Oops! error message for the other 2.
I had to book each of the three passangers seperately, , does anyone have this problem and is there a solution.
Anyone think there will be a problem if one of the passangers is 2 years old?

edit:
it could be i only have this problem when using gift card/traveler funds to pay the taxes

It use to be you could send an overnight check on chase.com and get an activation code by text. Now you have to call for one. SOOOOO annoying... and they wanted to ask security questions too.

Credit Cards And Finance / Floating payment

« on: February 19, 2013, 04:34:16 PM »

I made a phone payment for someone else's citi card using my bank account routing and acnt number. The payment posted, but apparently, there is a "float." I was told "There is a "payment float" on it which means we will post the payment to your account but the credit isn't released until we very with the bank that the payment is coming from."
Are they going to verify teh bank account name matches the credit card it came from? That would be such a pain
