Complaint: On Thursday, XX/XX/22 I made a CASH deposit of {$1400.00} in a Citizens Bank ATM # XXXX located in the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX in XXXX, MA. I accessed my account with PIN, and selected Cash Deposit. The door for deposits on the ATM opened and I inserted 14 {$100.00} bills. The ATM took the cash and proceeded to count it. After a while, it rejected 3 {$100.00} bills, then one more, and after another pause a last {$100.00} bill was rejected by the ATM. I waited and got a message from the ATM that the deposit could not be processed, and I got a short printout that had : ATM #, Date, Card # and Location, and stated " Cash Deposit Your transaction can not be processed '' and " Please contact your financial institution '' THE ATM STOLE {$900.00} from me, Did not define my account number or the {$900.00}! I AM OUTRAGED BY THIS. Thank god I selected a hard copy receipt or I would have no evidence of this thievery or incompetence whatsoever. After 3 phone calls - the first 2 dropped out - reason unknown, I was able to file a claim, Claim # XXXX. On Friday, XX/XX/22, not trusting the local ATM, I deposited the balance of {$500.00} with help from a Teller. Shortly after the {$500.00} deposit, I went online to verify the {$500.00} deposit and saw that {$900.00} had been put in my primary checking account, dated XX/XX/22 and noted as Credit Memo and Dda Credit. No apology. Repeat : No apology. No email or other notification that the {$900.00} deposit had been completed. I'm starting to really dislike banks in this era.
