National City Bank (PNC) Overdraft Fee Class Action Settlement 

 

By Kimberly Mirando

National City PNC Bank

National City Bank and PNC Bank (PNC) have reached a $12 million class action lawsuit settlement concerning illegal overdraft fees. If you paid overdraft fees to National City (including accounts transferred to PNC when it merged with National City in November 2009), you may be eligible to receive a cash payment from the class action settlement that could be as much as $100 or more.

 

According to the National City Bank class action lawsuit settlement, titled Trombley, et al. v. National City Bank, et al., National City improperly assessed overdraft fees for insufficient funds on debit card purchases and ATM withdrawals in a number of ways that were unlawful, including by “re-sequencing” transactions in order to maximize the number of overdraft fees. The lawsuit alleges that these practices were unlawful and caused financial injury.

 

You’re considered a class member of the National City overdraft fee settlement if you hold or ever held a National City Account and at any time from July 1, 2005 through August 15, 2010 incurred at least one Overdraft Fee associated with at least one National City Debit Card Transaction that was not previously reversed, refunded or returned. (The settlement does not apply to any PNC accounts that were opened for the first time through PNC or one of PNC’s predecessor banks other than National City. It does, however apply to National City account holders who were charged fees before or after National City was merged into PNC.)

 

As part of the $12 million National City class action settlement, National City will pay class members $36 for each eligible Overdraft Fee they incurred during the class period. However, if the number of people filing claims is small enough, you may be able to receive up to three times this amount!

 

All you have to do to receive your share of the National City cash settlement is to submit a valid claim form no later than August 26, 2011 either by submitting it online at www.NationalCityClass.com or mailing it to the Settlement Administrator. (Claim forms can be found here.)

    I had this resequencing issue with National City and I never received a settlement information letter. What do I need to do to submit my claim?

    These thieves have taken somewhere around $800 from me for overdraft charges. I have opened another account at a different bank and hope that they don’t practice the same thievery.

    closed my account three years ago due to the re-sequencing of charges. funny, haven’t had an over-draft charge since that time. these folks are thieves. i actually have proof of the re-sequencing–wonder if that can get me a little bit more in restitution! i documented the resequencing of charges in my account!

    Yeah these clowns have taken whole paychecks from me too… if bills were coming out on friday and I got paid Friday they would say that debits must come first and charge me for overdrafts even though my direct deposit was in the bank first thing in the morning. I’ll be lucky though if I get paid $1 out of this.

    That’s because they earn more from this practice than they pay out in settlements. National city pulled this re-sequencing crap on me once years ago and managed to steal an entire 2 week check from me in od fees. These crooks should be locked up.. but the corporate structure holds no one liable except the corporation itself. Face it.. 12 mil to a major corp is chump change.
