Headline error.
That aside, how outrageous wfc’s theory is will depend on the wording of the customer’s agreement with them.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter at all what the agreement states since they're not a party to it.

The agreement they actually did sign might cover all claims for fraud.

We recently had the bank try to slip
In $$1800 of extra fees — after it promised there wouldn’t be any such charges. That included $500 for a phantom appraisal — the contract was for a no- appraisal loan!! Ungood.

Wow, you mean a “cost of doing (criminal) business” fine isn’t enough to discourage bad behavior? I’m shocked.

Even if one hasn’t been personally harmed by this conduct, and even if it is a major inconvenience, it is the obligation of every Wells Fargo customer now to close their accounts as quickly as possible and move on. They will not learn, and they are Too Big to be Spanked.

They should shut down the company and distribute all the assets between the shareholders & everyone that was defrauded.

Customer never agreed to have the accounts opened, never signed anything, never even knew it was being done until after the fact. Their signatures were forged by Wells-Fargo employees.
Talk about chutzpah and screwing their customers not once but twice. I have no accounts with them other than a mortgage that is a few years from being paid off. I’d refinance just to get away from them, but it won’t pay out.
I’ll have no desire to do business with such a miserable, dishonest company again, once I’m done and out.
To: RegulatorCountry
I despise Wells Fargo as a fee-hungry bank that watched accounts close because they refused to listen to complaints about fees; long ago they stopped sending out customer satisfaction surveys (they really couldn’t care less).
That being said, I can’t for the life of me figure out how they thought these scams were going to work; did they really think most of these victims wouldn’t notice new fee-laden accounts opened in their names? I mean, you need an opening deposit from somewhere, no?

WF needs to give every affected customer a few thousand dollars in addition to actual losses.
Their attitude proves they approved of the fraud.
