FOUND A COMENITY ACH CHARGED TO MY BANK ACCOUNT YESTERDAY. NEVER HEARD OF THIS ENTITY AND CONTACTED MY BANK. IN ONE DAY IT WAS RESOLVED IN MY FAVOR. TOO BAD A HUNDRED THOUSAND CONCERNED CITIZENS DON'T HIT THEIR BANK ACCOUNTS WITH A CHARGE FOR ALL THE TIME WE HAVE WASTED ON THEIR FUN AND GAMES. THE FACT THAT THE CHARGE TO MY ACCOUNT WAS SMALL LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THEY MAY THINK MANY WILL NOT NOTICE THE CHARGE AT ALL AND THE REST OF US WILL THINK IT ISN'T WORTH OUR TIME TO PERSUE. BANK REGULATORS WHERE ARE YOU?
