My account was overdrawn, however I made a return to a store. When I checked my account to see if the credit had posted, I found that Suntrust had applied an extended overdraft fee. This fee XXXX the amount of {$36.00} if the account is overdrawn more than a week. This seems like a predatory practice, most people are paid bi-weekly. I have been a customer of Suntrust bank since 2010, and have direct deposit set up on my account. 
I went to the bank to speak with a representative and let him see the copy of my credit from the store. He said that it was pending, but he could not make the decision to issue a refund of the fee as a courtesy. He would email his manager, and his manager would make a decision upon his return. XXXX days later, the manager, XXXX XXXX, called me and informed me that because of my returned item ( an insurance check that automatically is paid from my account ), the overdraft was my fault and the bank was right in charging me the fees. He rudely hung up the phone as I tried to discuss my concerns. To have an extended overdraft fee is an excessive fee, which makes it more difficult for consumers to gain financial stability. My account was overdrawn by {$11.00}, I was charged a returned item fee of {$36.00}, then an additional extended overdraft fee of {$36.00}. 

This practice should not continue, and Suntrust should issue refunds of the extended overdraft fees.
