Unfair Overdraft Claims from National Bank of Arizona Customers Under Investigation

(EstateNewsWire.com, December 19, 2012 ) New York, NY – The attorneys working with ClassAction.org are investigating potential claims on behalf of National Bank of Arizona customers who suspect they were unfairly charged overdraft fees. Some of the nation’s largest banks have faced lawsuits alleging that they reordered their customers’ transactions to maximize the amount of overdraft fees they could charge. It is believed that smaller, regional banks may be engaging in similar practices. If you were charged overdraft fees by National Bank of Arizona, the attorneys would like to hear from you to assist in their investigation of the overdraft protection policies of local banks. To have your overdraft complaints reviewed, at no cost to you, please visit http://www.classaction.org/unfair-overdraft-protection-fees.html for a free case evaluation.

Overdraft transaction sorting occurs when transactions are processed in a highest-to-lowest sequence, rather than in the order in which they were made. For instance, assume a customer has $100 dollars in their account; this consumer makes four $25 purchases in the morning, followed by a $75 later in the day. Had this consumer’s transactions been cleared chronologically, they would only be charged one overdraft fee. If the bank cleared the largest transaction first, in this case the $75 purchase, the customer would have incurred three overdraft fees, instead of one. It has been alleged that these practices are causing consumers to be charged more fees, and in turn, increases the bank’s profits.

National Bank of Arizona has not been named in lawsuits making these allegations; however, if you suspect you were unfairly charged overdraft fees by National Bank of Arizona or any other local bank, visit ClassAction.org for more information and a free case review.
