Full Complaint:
I provided a bank certified check for mobile deposit to my USAA account. At the time of the deposit the mobile transaction was accepted and did not state there was an image problem. Then 10 days later a image problem was noted to me by mail and the actual check was requested. I mailed the original check immediately after taking another photo of the check. I mailed it by the stated date required.

The bank suddenly did no recieve the check by the stated date and his holding 10k of those funds causing subsequant problems with my bill pays, and checks they continue to send out checks through my bill pay with a negative balance.

This is causing me excessive fees and will result in additional credit problems.
this bank has also been sending my bills out late in the last month.

Issue: Managing an account
Sub-Issue: Funds not handled or disbursed as instructed

Full Complaint:
Less than two weeks ago usaa opened a closed account after a direct deposit was mistakenly sent there and they took my money that never should’ve been owed but thats irrelevant atthis point. Usaa then closed this same account t and mailed a check. They did all of this without my consent or authorization. But now my much needed stimulus check was sent back and they refused to open this same account even though they had just done this very same thing less than 2 weeks ago. Now I’m going to have to wait even longer for my stimulus due to usaa ‘s extremely selfish unfair business practices.
