Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:No real response was provided to my concerns, and supervisor contact was only marginally less patronizing than my initial contact on this matter.
I have successfully withdrawn all my funds through my own efforts and with no assistance from Midfirst or Viobank. I was given no reassurance that someone with a similar issue would receive any meaningful assistance.
I will do no further business with either bank and have no desire to speak further with their representatives, but I would misrepresent the communications I have had with them if I advised that I was in any way satisfied with their conduct or reassured that their actions would not deprive another customer of their rights and assets in a similar circumstance.
I was able to get what I needed to withdraw my money through good fortune and the large storage capacity provided by my email provider for years’ old messages. A similar customer, for the lack of either, might have required recourse to legal action to compel the return of their own property.
The business’s rigid policies and stubbornness are a danger to their own customers.
Sincerely,
******* *****Business Response

Was just made aware that MidFirst Bank is reporting an account that they forced closed of mine as a charged off account owing money when in reality they drafted these funds from one of the other four fully funded accounts I had with them. I called today and was told that it was a “reportable loss” even though they retrieved the funds immediately. This all occurred due to one ACH that was being disputed. The other company did not send the refund within the 40 days although u was working with a banker and had submitted the request with the company. By the time the refund was submitted, it bounced back as the account was closed. I was made aware when funds were drafted from one account and the overdrawn account was closed but had no idea that it was reported as a charged back account still owing MidFirst money until I opened an account at another bank today and this “charge back” showed on their report. This practice is fraudulent to create a recorded loss that does not exist. I was a referring client of this bank for many years with five accounts and a credit card but one ACH dispute situation on one account has led to a dishonest report on my record insinuating that I owe MidFirst money when I absolutely do not.Business Response

Two and a half weeks ago, I received a fraud text asking if I had authorized a charge. I responded saying I had not. A few minutes later, I get a phone call from the fraud ***** They also ask about the charge that I had not authorized. They review my account and tell me that my debit card would be canceled. I expected that. A week later, I had not received my new card, so I called to find out when it had been mailed. The person I spoke with stated that it was never sent because the fraud **** does not replace cards and I should have called to request a new card. I was not informed of that, which I feel is vital information that the fraud **** should have told me. I ask to order a new card, but it will take another 7-10 days for it to arrive when I am already over a week with no access to my money. EVERYTHING is tied to that account and I have bills that are now overdue with no way to pay them because I dont have a card and expediting it is $40. The representative offers to waive the fee and have it sent to me in 3-5 days. One week later, I still dont have the card. I call again. The representative tells me that the card was mailed 4 days after that conversation, when I was told it would be mailed immediately. I was very frustrated so the representative offered to have a supervisor call me back when they were done assisting other customers. An hour later, I had not received a call, so I called again. I am now over 2 weeks without a card and again, no access to my money. This representative looked in my account and told me that not only was that card not sent until 4 days after I was told it was going to be, but it was also not expedited. She attempted to get it overnighted to me, but that was rejected, even though I thought that is what should have happened. She did get it expedited to me yesterday and I should have it within 4 days. But I am still without funds, and have bills overdue where I am responsible for the late fees when the error lies with the bank.Business Response

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: I communicated with ************************* in writing and via phone message on 5-28-2024 at the issue in its enriety and supplied him with the proof of the paid money order that satisfied the initial debt that I paid twice due to MidFirst Banks accounting error. MidFirst Bank did not follow through professionally or ethically. MidFirst Bank should reimburse my account as they have not taken the proper steps to resolve this issue, even after I supplied pertinent information to validate my efforts to the Regional Manager who contacted me.MidFirst Banks practices are unethical. In addition, Neither one of the gentlemen i spoke to initially, ******* on **************** phone line, nor **** at ************ ext 7235, which ******* referred me to, took the time to take the money order information to cross reference the payment made. I am dissatisfied with the way this has been handled as it is unprofessional and unfair, and the fact that MidFirst Bank fails to resolve this matter violates my consumer rights.
I would appreciate you assisting me with a positive credit to my account for $86.51, in reference to this error.

I was charged $128.00 for a monthly service charge on my savings account for transfer fees that I was unaware were being accrued. I opened the account 13 years ago and Midfirst stated that I was given a disclosure at the time of these fees. Yet, this April *************************** 13 years I was charged $128 for transfers. I asked for the signed disclosure to be emailed to be in which the bank manager (*******) continued to try to redirect the conversation and not commit to send me the disclosure. I have received feedback from other Midfirst employees saying a refund is justified. All I am asking is for a refund of these fees. Now that I am aware of the fees, I will not make transfers between the accounts. But since the disclosures were never given to me, nor was I charges these fees previously, I feel a full refund is justified.Customer Answer

Mid first Bank closed my personal checking account because of a withdrawal. No explanation could be given as to why this occurred. They have caused distress and a multitude of other inconvenience for my financial dealings. I believe it was personal discrimination witch caused this curious behavior.Business Response

Dear Ms. ********:
We acknowledge receipt of the above-referenced complaint submitted by Louis ******** to the Better
Business Bureau (“BBB”) in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, concerning MidFirst Bank (“MidFirst”), and received by
MidFirst on April 3, 2024.
Thank you for bringing Mr. ********** concerns to our attention. MidFirst finds no basis for
Mr. ********** allegation of discrimination. MidFirst neither condones nor participates in discriminatory
practices and has policies in place to comply with fair banking laws. A MidFirst regional manager contacted
Mr. ******** directly, and while we were unable to satisfy Mr. ********, MidFirst believes that it has
appropriately addressed Mr. ********** complaint and considers this matter closed.
MidFirst appreciates the opportunity to respond to Mr. ********** complaint.
Respectfully,
MidFirst Bank

My card was locked while traveling. I called and after confirming all of my information with a rep on the phone they let me know I needed to update my phone number to text me a code. I supplied them with a new number and they said they would send it to the back office to update and call me back. I never received a call back that day. Called the next day to do the same thing, and again they said they would call back. Next day same issue. After the 4th attempt they told me they couldn't verify my number because it is a company phone. My last number was also a company phone, but that somehow worked. I asked if I could use my wife's number, they told me yes and they would call me back to update the number and unlock my card. 5 days later they still have not called back and my is still locked card is locked. The solution they gave me was to go into a banking center, which is not ideal since I live out of state. The customer service was below average at best. They did not inform me of any of these issues over phone on my 1st 4 calls. I understand my account does not mean anything to this bank, but I don't believe it should be this difficult to gain access to my funds.Business Response

I have had nothing but negative attitudes and judgmental responses from MidFirst Bank in anthem *******. My biggest issue is with ********************* one of the bankers has turned me down several times for opening a bank account. And within ************************************ I went and opened an account with *****. That's just one of my issues with them. My biggest issue now is that my husband is incarcerated and has made me power of attorney over anything financial. In other words I have a durable financial power of attorney while he's away. I took that in there to the bank they said they could not help me that they would call, they called and said they had to send it to a regional manager. And then I got a call back stating that they had to send it to the legal department. And received a call today stating they cannot accept it. Because my husband dated the power of attorney on the 6th when he received it in the mail at the jail. The power of attorney that came the following day that notarized it put it on the 7th the day that she notarized it and the day that she seen my husband and the witness standing there. I don't know I just know I am very frustrated with this Bank they are not kind people. I want to know what I can do about this it is a legal notarized document. And in all honesty it's not like my husband has millions of dollars even thousands of dollars in his bank account that I am trying to get a hold of. I want to be able to access his account to deposit his taxes when that time comes to be able to take care of anything financially when it comes to his bank account and they are permitting me from doing that. I know for certain this power of attorney is not fraudulent like they are stating it is my husband is in jail I don't know how that would be fraudulent when he signed it the day he got it and the notary was there the day after to notarize I'm wore out on fighting with this bank over every little thing.Business Response
