One *********** charges NSF fees for transactions even when there are deposits made within the same time as a charge. I get biweekly payments that come to my account but a service fee is charged for them. Everytime the deposit and fee are processed to my account I get charged a $37 fee and have to call to have it reversed. Now they are refusing to reverse anymore fees. They are taking $37 from me everytime I get paid. Then I called to tell them a transaction was unauthorized because I had already paid the bill through other means while trying to get refunded for the multiple $37 charges that were on my account. They informed me that they would not stop the pending authorization. I told them I wanted to close the account and they stated that they would not because I had charges pending. Then the next day they charged another fee do the the unauthorized transaction that they would not stop.Business Response

After being spammed repeatedly via email and seeing continuous ads on ******** I attempted to open a checking account with OneUnited on August 22, 2022. After completing the application and giving them my initial deposit via my **** debit card, I was declined. OneUnited states in writing that if one is not approved for an account then your deposit will be returned IMMEDIATELY. Four days later I still ave two pending charges on my current account and as many others have stated, emails go unanswered.Business Response

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic.
