Needless to say I deposited the money in my account and the check bounced. I called Mrs. Kay Wright and she said I will have to check your file and get back to you. I never heard another word. So now my bank is watching everything I deposit into my account. I informed them about the situation and there legal department is doing something on there end. It made me feel like a fool. I have been with the same bank for twenty years and now they make me feel like I am a criminal. I hope these people are prosecuted to the fullest.
