There have been so many times that I've looked at my online banking and noticed that I was way overdrawn. I don't check it every day, so sometimes I've been overdrawn for a few days, and then take out $30 every day! I usually call them and ask to speak to a manager, and they take off most of the days of charges. I know they don't have to, so it's nice, but have you tried calling them and seeing if they can take the fee off? Good luck!

I know what you can do is when someone else won't give you money back...call the number again and speak to someone else. Apparently that person you spoke to had a bad day or is naturally rude. I do it when it happens and it works. I know banks are so greedy, that's how they make their money. That is why I am kind of resistant to open an account, but I have to due to the way the world works these days. What scares me is that they can say all the money you work so hard for in your account has lost it's value or disappeared completely and your money is gone.

How on earth did you go over that much, though? That seems like a ridiculously high amount to overdraft.
