The ATM machine on the front side of the TD Bank facing Franklin Avenue puts bank customers in a blind spot unable to see vehicles exiting the bank’s drive through window and motorists can not see the customer exiting the ATM machine . This safety issue could be easily remedied by adding a fence on the left side of the ATM blocking the egress to the driveway so the ATM customer does not inadvertently walk into an on coming car exiting the drive through window.

TD Bank’s overdraft fees are illegal, lawsuit claims

Ridgewood Bank Robbed in Broad Daylight

CHERRY HILL TWP. — A Connecticut woman is suing Cherry Hill-headquartered TD Bank over its allegedly “unlawful” overdraft fee that charges users who don’t replenish their bank accounts within 10 days.

Per the class action lawsuit filed Jan. 4 on behalf of Shaina Dorsey by Marlton-based lawyer Stephen DeNittis, the sustained overdraft charge of $20 is imposed after an initial charge of $35 for the overdraft itself and exceeds the limit permitted by the National Bank Act.

“Unlike an initial overdraft fee, the Sustained Fee for Overdrawn Accounts is an additional charge to a customer for which the bank has provided nothing new in the way of services,” the lawsuit reads. “The charge is based solely on the alleged indebtedness to the bank remaining unpaid by the customer for a period of time.”

According to the suit, Dorsey’s checking account went into “overdraft” status in Aug. 15, 2016 and remained that way until Sept. 8, 2016. The $20 fee on Aug. 26, 2016 was in addition to six other fees totaling $210 “for transactions that created her ‘overdraft’ status in the first place.”
