Citibank’s Overdraft and Insufficient Funds Fees
Allegations: Misrepresenting how many overdraft or insufficient funds fees consumers could be charged on a single transaction
In February 2018, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Citibank for allegedly misleadingly marketing that the bank charges no more than $12 a month for basic checking account services without telling customers that there are circumstances – such as when the account does not have enough funds to pay the monthly checking account fee – where they may be charged more than $12 a month. (Lopez et al v. Citibank, N.A., Case No. 18-at-146, E.D. Cal.)
