      After verifying information with our customer, it was determined that our compliance responsibilities do not allow us to meet their banking needs.  We notified our customer of a future account closing date to allow the identification of a new financial institution.

      My debit card was compromised on September 30th and October 2. I contacted bank and they issued a refund for the fraudulent charges. The fraud continued every time I activated a new debit card. This happened a total of 3 times. I was told I could not have another card until they investigated it. This is a Very Small Business account. So in order to continue my business, I had to open an account elsewhere.On November 6th, the bank reversed two transactions totaling over $1,600. To make the story short, they claim the transactions were legitimate. They are not!!!! Im told today, they have done all they can and I cannot get my money back. The allowed time has passed.I have called the bank and merchant over 20 times combined without answers. They are making me feel like the criminal. I just want my money back.

      ChoiceOne has exhausted all avenues to receive back any funds related to the business debit card purchases with the vendors in question. The complaint and ChoiceOnes response have also been reviewed by regulatory authorities.  Any further disputes will need to be addressed directly with the vendor(s).

      I received a call from the fraud department regarding my debit card on June 26. There was fraud involved and they quickly cancelled the card. I left a message with customer service to get a new card issued to me that same day. I have never received a replacement debit card. It has been 3 weeks since I got the call from the fraud department. This is not the first time choice one bank has done something like this to me.
