I have had my checking account with Regions Bank for quite some time now, maybe 6 months, and I have always done everything to safeguard my personal information and pin number from theft. I hid my pin number to my debit card in a pair of grey sweatpants in my closet, and my debit card in a safe in my living room. On or around XXXX/XXXX/2015, I noticed about XXXX or XXXX unauthorized transactions on my account, and reported this to Regions over the phone, which started the claim. A new card was sent to me, and the old one cancelled. I received the claim AFFIDAVIT in the mail about 7 days after that. In the AFFIDAVIT, I specifically stated that I believed that my ex-girlfriend and her brother might have taken my PIN number, more so her than him, because she lived with me, and although I NEVER told her where my PIN number and debit card were located, she WAS my girlfriend and it s conceivable that she could have searched throughout all pairs of my pants in my closet, found the pin number, and could have been watching me enter the code to my safe. This is all speculation though. I faxed the completed affidavit ack to Regions and the next day, I was told that Regions had received it, and that my claim should be finalized by XX/XX/XXXX no later than the close of business day, XXXX/XXXX/2015. On XXXX/XXXX/2015, I called the REGIONS CONSUMER PROTECTION department, which handles the fraud claims, and asked what time the funds stolen from me would show up in my account. I was told that my claim had been denied, and that I did NOT state in my AFFIDAVIT how the pin number and debit card had been stolen from me. This is all a lie of course, because I specifically stated in my AFFIDAVIT that my ex-girlfriend and her brother might have been the ones who stole this from me. I was told that the ONLY way to reassert my claim would be to provide a police report and/or provide clarification on how the pin number and debit and came up missing. I explained to the " specialist '' over the phone that I had no further information regarding this claim, and that under Regulation E of the Federal Reserve Board rules Regions was required to reimburse me, and that this is NOT contingent upon the filing of a police report, because the police are NOT responsible for reimbursing me, REGIONS is. The police job is to catch crooks and criminals. Despite all of this, even if I had attached a police report, which I did NOT, and am not, the outcome would still have to be the same : REGIONS MUST REIMBURSE me. She hung up the phone me.
