About three weeks ago, I went to a wells fargo bank in XXXX to open a new checking account besides the one I already have. I did that. I was told that the account has been created successfully, and I should be receiving a new card within 7-10 business days. It 's been more than 20 days, and nothing is received. I am not even worried. I happened to go to the branch the other day, and check on the status of the card. I was told that I had to provide further information, namely, ( Apt number ), which I then did. Next, the banker told me that your card will be mailed out to you soon. So far, no stress and everything is cool. I walk out, and next day, which is literally this day ( Friday ) I try to buy some food using my debit card, but could n't. Debit Card was never accepted by all machines. Things started to get weird! I then tried to get some cash via an ATM, however, it kept declining the transactions. I then went straight to the closest bank branch, which is at the University XXXX. I was trying to explain what 's going on, and understand the problem, yet bankers -including the manager- were being too unhelpful. I told them that I could n't use my debit card, and .. so forth and that it keeps getting declined, so they asked for an Id. I showed them my University ID, as well as an international valid driving license. They did n't however bother to check onto my account, and yet insisted to see my passport, which I obviously did n't have at that point, nor was I able to go get either. I was frustrated because I was not even able to afford for a taxi to take me back home, so that I can get my passport and fix the issue. I never held cash on me. I felt condescended. I got disappointed, and walked out. I tried to call the bank thinking they my be of a help. Lucky I was, at least was informed what the problem was, which totally ended up being unpleasant. After verifying of my identity, they told me that my debit card has been deactivated. And the reason is because another card will have been mailed to you. My answer was Seriously?? It just does n't make no sense to deactivate all my working debit cards ( XXXX ) because you are sending me another one for another checking that has not even been received, and without any temporary cards! Simply, I have been blocked out of my accounts. I was no longer able to get any money out of my money just because of that! I could n't use the card, and I could n't do anything else. Apparently, on an email I received from WELLS FARGO the other day saying that my, supposedly, previous card will not be deactivated until the XXXX/XXXX/15 which completely disagrees with all the actions taken. They deactivated XXXX working cards that are, nonetheless, associated with a different checking account. It 's too frustrating to see carelessness prevents you from using your own property and own money.
