I’m having an issue with customer service. I usually get feat service but this holiday season someone has taken my card and used it place like Best Buy, NFM and target for purchases I did not make. They told me they couldn’t dispute or Mark fraud because they had not settled when they had, street calling repeatedly they finally did the dispute but then I had to call back and do it again. They still messed up the disputes and the target charge has shown up shown up again. I need the corporate office to resubmit the dispute. I spoke with target and they said it was an automated system error and to have the bank resubmit the dispute but the customer service agents acting lazy. I like my bank and deposit my work checks here, I do not want to file a lawsuit which will be my next step but I’m asking if the bbb will act as a mediator to solve the issue so me and the company don’t have to litigate. The charges were around 3300 Best Buy 200 NFM and 472 targetBusiness Response

Would it be possible for UMB to get an extension through 2/14/2025? This customer has also filed complaint with one of our regulators, and the response to that complaint is due on 2/14/2015.

I am rejecting this response because first I didn’t dispute the charge for $420.01 and the letter I received for the disputes doesn’t show a charge being disputed for $420.01. I’m disputing the other Target charge that I didn’t make, I talked to Target and they said if I redisputed that charge with my bank they would make sure that their system doesn’t deny it on their end.

Thank you, ***** To clarify- we have made multiple attempts to contact this customer via telephone, and have sent written correspondence explaining the status of her fraud claims. Our response letter directs her to contact us via telephone to discuss this further.
Her original assertions and understanding of the scenario are simply inaccurate. She was given credit for the $3,060.71 BestBuy.com charge on 12/16/2024 and that remains in her account. If she has not provided additional information regarding what she’s rejecting, I’m not sure how else we can respond.
How do we proceed?

I opened a UMB checking account with the intention of using it as an additional checking account due to it's proximity. I deposited cash at my local branch through a teller, made a few cash deposits through an ATM, and transferred money to an external account... all transactions, rightfully, went smoothly. This account turned into a joint account with my fiancé a few months ago as we decided to start regularly depositing for future use. Every single transaction after adding him as an account holder was questioned. Simple deposits of $2000-4000 that were coming from our personal accounts where being questioned as to why/where. I tried to move $14,000 to our high-yield savings account and received a call to verify the transaction, amount, and account it was going to. I verified everything and was told the transaction was approved. I try to log into my mobile app 2 days later and find my account is locked and my transaction was cancelled (with no notification). I call my local branch and they do not know why it is locked and stated they would call me later to unlock. I receive a call later from ******** (?) at ************ and am interrogated regarding every transaction I have made. Considering I am doing no wrong, I explain EVERY SINGLE TRANSACTION with where/why/amounts, despite her hostile tone and lack of respect when incorrectly addressing my fiancé. She accepts no answer, becomes condescending, and no longer allows me to talk claiming "it makes no sense." I ask to call back as I am in the middle of work to only later find out she has spoken to an unknown person regarding the information I gave her (information she stated she did not understand therefore was improperly relayed) and claimed "they are likely going to close the account because you are washing money." I asked for an explanation for the blatant accusation of money laundering to then be addressed like I was dumb and be told "that is not what I was saying." Terrible experience and severe accusations.Business Response

UMB Bank, n.a. (“UMB”) has received a copy of the complaint you submitted to the BBB, in which
you stated concerns regarding your UMB Checking Account (the “Account”). We have
investigated the claim and this letter serves as UMB’s response.
At account opening, you were provided a copy of the Bank’s “Deposit Account Agreement”.
According to the terms, UMB reserves the right to freeze an Account and investigate, should the
bank have concerns related to the transaction activity. Based on proprietary monitoring indicating
irregular activity, a hold was placed on the Account for additional review. As a normal part of the
review, UMB contacts customers to review and validate transaction activity. Because fraudulent
activity can occur both with and without the consumer’s awareness, our due diligence process
serves to protect customers and our business from harm due to fraud. While reviewing account
transactions with an account holder is a routine practice in our monitoring activity, it is our
expectation that UMB associates will be considerate and courteous in those interactions. We
appreciate feedback such as yours to allow us to continue to enhance training and reiterate
customer service expectations to our employees.
Our records reflect you closed the Account effective January 17, 2025 and therefore consider the
matter resolved. We hope you find this information herein satisfies your inquiry and addresses
your concerns.

The dentist overcharged me $217 for the services which should only be $75.6 as the insurance company claim showed as attached. They overcharged me $141.40 and refuse to provide a refund. However, when I was filing the dispute with the HSA account bank, they keep providing wrong information and cause deliberate delay and back and forth. And recently they sent a notice saying that the dispute cannot be filed for the transaction because the dispute window has passed. Well, the HSA is supposed to be used for spent on medical services, which in this case, the claim from the insurance to show of the actual correct amount to be paid could take as long as 6month to be processed. This is a completely unacceptable excuse. Let alone that all the delays in this process was also caused by all the incorrect information or delay of processing the dispute from the UMB bank and their business partner ***** *********s.Business Response

For several months I've been going through hurdle after hurdle that this institution has places to prevent me from simply moving money out of an HSA account.
1. They did not communicate how to gain access to my HSA account after I left my employer
2. They made it exceptionally difficult to figure out and actually re-gain access to my account.
3. When I got access, they did not provide a means of performing an in-kind transfer. I had to research and finally reach out to eventually hear that they don't offer an in-kind transfer (which is very bothersome, as it means incurring a large tax burden in my state in order to simply move my money to another institution).
4. After selling all my investments (incurring the tax) to move funds into a savings account, and finally being able to transfer the funds, I discovered that, as soon as the funds were moved to my savings account, they were quietly moved right back to my investment account. I'm now waiting for the fund transfer to my investment account to be completed, so that I can transfer them yet again to my savings account and finally move the money out.
UMB claims that they moved the funds back because I have an automatic transfer set, but that is to apply to money added to a savings account, not money being moved out of the investment account. At the very least UMB should notify consumers if such a setting would cause funds to be moved back to investments.
During this time I've been incurring monthly fees from UMB (higher than what I paid while employed, and not informed by UMB of the increased fees). I'm exhausted and I want UMB to allow me to complete the transfer out of UMB already.
In my opinion, I'm owed a reimbursement for fees since leaving my employer, as I would have completed the transfer immediately had UMB not made this so difficult. At this time, I just want the money in my savings account, and assurance that the money will be moved when I initiate the transfer from my new bank.Business Response

UMB Bank, n.a. (“UMB”) has received a copy of the above-referenced correspondence you submitted to the BBB, in which you described your dissatisfaction with the transfer process for your health savings account (the “HSA”) and requested a refund of certain fees. This letter serves as UMB’s response. Your HSA was disassociated from your employer in April 2024. At that time, a letter was sent to you informing you that your HSA would no longer be associated with the employer group. The letter also disclosed the terms your HAS would be subject to going forward, including applicable fees, and provided instructions for accessing your HSA going forward. A copy of the letter is enclosed. According to our records, in May of 2024, you asked whether an in-kind transfer of your HSA investment assets was possible. Like many other providers, UMB does not offer an option for an in-kind transfer of HSA investment assets. As the representative you spoke with explained, to complete a transfer you need to take the following steps: 1. Liquidate the balance of your HSA investment account; 2. Discontinue any automatic investment features established on your HSA deposit account; and 3. Once the liquidation had been completed, submit a Custodial Transfer or Closure Request form to transfer the funds to a new custodian, or close the HSA and receive the proceeds of the account. On 07/30/2024, you liquidated your HSA investment account assets, totaling $*********, and the proceeds were credited to your HSA deposit account, as is the standard process. On, 8/2/2024, pursuant to instructions you had previously provided to UMB to automatically invest the balance of the HSA deposit account anytime the HSA deposit account balance exceeded $********, $********* was transferred from your HSA deposit account to your HSA investment account. On 08/08/2024, you liquidated the contents of your HSA investment account and the proceeds, which totaled $*********, were credited to your HSA deposit account. To date, we have not received a Custodial Transfer or Closure Request form from you. As a courtesy and gesture of goodwill, on 8/13/2024 your HSA was credited $15.00, which represents a refund of the Benefit Administration and Investment Account service fees you incurred after your Account was disassociated from your former employer. If you do not wish to incur these fees going forward, you willBusiness Response

Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.
I should clarify, however, a few points:
- The letter that UMB claims to have sent to me was not received. Perhaps it was sent, perhaps not, but UMB did not provide proof of delivery.
- I've worked in the financial space and can say that in-kind transfers for HSA and other investment accounts is rather more common than not now. It's not the focus of my complaint, but it's a fact.
- I hadn't initiated the transfer out because I was repeatedly blocked by UMB bank from moving funds o the checking account. Until that was completed, I couldn't initiate the transfer. That was the point of this complain.
I had initiated a transfer as soon as the final transfer of funds to checking was complete, so that should be in process. I also appreciate that fees were refunded.I also advise that UMB be more careful about sharing the numbers in an individual's bank account as this issue will be posted in public. I hope that information is redacted.

May 10, 2024 I spoke with UMB Bankcard on the phone relaying the problem with 2 of our check payments we sent in 5 months previously were never applied to our account which had caused us to have a negative balance every month along with late fees that were being applied every month on top of it. I explained to them the checks had long since cleared our bank. They asked me to send in all the proof in via email which I did that same day. We corresponded over the next few weeks going back in forth with a few different people as it kept getting passed along to the "higher ups". At the end of May I received a phone call along with an email from them stating that our payments had misapplied but that their settlements department were going to move them back over to our account and that we should see them on our account in the next few business days. Two months have gone by and we have received 2 more statements that shows the exact same negative balance along with more late fees being applied. I contacted them again last week regarding this matter. No one seemed to be able to find anything about this situation. I again sent them everything in proof wise along with all of our correspondence via email, including the conclusion they had come to and emailed me about. I have yet to hear from them. We have always paid off our monthly balance since having this card.Business Response

Credit Card Application Denial; the institution's (UMB Card Services) computer system denied me a credit card within seconds at a ***** **** store for the new ***** **** credit, again ran by UMB Card Services in Kansas City, MO. Have to wait over 2 weeks to get a letter saying the denial. I told customer service at the UMB Card Services my credit is good to excellent with no miss payments or anything. UMB Card Services refused to let me talk to someone about this issue, telling me to wait for a letter of denial to be sent in 2 weeks or more. We have many credit cards from banks, stores, etc. with no problems with them plus getting a lot of offers to open new accounts, so there is no absolute reason to be denied, and they refuse to go over the application, I am being discriminated by this institution since we shop at the store that they represent.

While on vacation in Mexico, we were overcharged for a restaurant visit. We had a 5000 peso downpayment and it was not applied for the bill. PLUS - several charges were incorrect. We have all documents supporting this via 'whats app', 'receipts', and copies of the menu and the case continues to be denied. We have attempted multiple avenues via calls, in person and emails to no avail - this IS NOT VALID.

The business charges account balance based fees on HSA accounts. I spoke to a representative several times who gave me the options for preventing the next monthly service fee from being assessed, but many were unrealistic like reimbursing out of pocket medical expenses, but the account balance was over $1,000 which most people would not have forgotten to use HSA funds for that much money. So I attempted to transfer money into the account from another HSA to comply with IRS rules, but that would put me into the next month before the funds would be in the UMB account. Due to the poor customer service, I elected instead to close the account and transfer the funds from UMB to the other HSA, which again would be past the last day of the month. Since the supervisor a week earlier told me that I would not have to pay the March monthly fee if I did any of those 3 things I called back and explained the situation and was told they would waive the March fee since I initiated the account closure prior to the end of the month and would be paying the account closure fee. They did not honor their request. I have already paid several months of $2.95 monthly fees despite an over $1,000 balance.Business Response

According to our records, when your Account was dissociated from your employer in April 2023, a letter

to March 2024.
Regarding you request for an additional refund, because the fees were disclosed to you and UMB has

So I filled out FMLA paperwork & qualified for. I did have short term disability, however HR @ billion automotive told me that I would have to save that money to give to HR which went to payroll to pay for health insurance till I would be cleared to go back to work. So I had several creditors that I reached out to , most were gracious & very helpful.
However, Card Services in Kansas City Missouri has been a problem.
End of January 2024 , I reached out to them (CardServices) & customer service told me no I wasn’t turned over to collections, had been turned over, but not filed, was told I was ok moving forward. Then when I made payment in February, it changed again , so I mad 2.payments & 3rd payment which is coming up , (04/02/24), hardship customer service at card services. Was told that I was no longer on hardship program, so I was being switched to a 3rd party collection service which works out of same building .
Long story short I have been in contact with This 3rd party my contact person is ******* The problem is I get letters stating it’s going to be wrote off as bad debt , & they would pursue other options to more late fees & negative reports to credit bureaus. This contradicts what I was told mid to end of January.. so today at around 6:30 pm I talked to card services again , talked to ******* customer service manager, said her department is always on 24/7/365
& once again never heard of a gentleman named Ladell ?
I had a health issue card services end of January says I’m fine nothing to worry about … confirmed status with Ladell , in fact told me not to worry about it .
Do I qualify for help from BBB , can you please assist me???
