Add PNC Bank to the growing list of banks settling class action lawsuits over unfair overdraft fees.
PNC Bank agreed to a $12 million class action lawsuit settlement to settle claims it misled customers about their account balance, concealed its overdraft policies and reordered electronic debit transactions from the highest dollar amount to the lowest dollar amount in order to “deplete the customer’s available funds as quickly as possible while maximizing the number of overdraft fees collected.”
Under the terms of the proposed $12 million overdraft fee class action settlement, Washington customers of National City Bank, which merged into PNC in 2009, who held an account during the class period and incurred at least one overdraft fee associated with at least one National City debit card transaction that was not previously reversed, refunded or returned to them by the bank are eligible to join the class and receive settlement benefits.
If the proposed class action settlement is approved, class members in Washington will receive $36 for each eligible overdraft charge incurred during any two calendar months between July 1, 2004 and August 15, 2010.

This settlement is not fair to the bank customer. In the last two years they have been reversing my checks I’d check my balance late in the day and next morning there would be a check ahead of the others, I had accounts I could have covered it with (not linked) but the system was designed so you couldn’t catch it. So why is the settlement limited to two months that’s quite a lot of money out of my pocket they get to unjustly keep.

Thank God, I just wish there was more than 12 million dollars because Lord knows they took almost that much just from me by juggling the transactions and taking the big ones first. It was theft and forgery to the highest degree and I only wish someobdy would go to prison for it.
