Santa Barbara Bank & Trust Are Running SCAMS on People Using Them For Their Refund!! 2/16/2009

I would NEVER recommend this bank to anyone! In fact, I am making it a point to tell EVERYONE I know not to use them to do their taxes. On a whim, I used Turbo Tax this year (who uses SBB&T to deposit taxpayer's money) NEVER have I had so much trouble doing my taxes in all my life. I paid almost $50 dollars to have MY money deposited into my account. They said it would be there on the 5th of February. On the 10th, I was FINALLY able to get ahold of someone at SBBT who proceeded to tell me that my bank rejected the deposit even though all my account numbers were correct. Upon calling my bank, they told me that no money was ever even attempted to be deposited into my account and even offered to conference call in to SBBT. My bank representative and I did this, but the rep at SBBT wouldn't speak to her. They refused to refund the money they charged to deposit into my account and sent me a check in the mail which I didn't recieve until the 15th. Now I am currently having a hard time cashing this check because it is from out of state!! Long story short, SBBT is charging people to deposit their money and then not following up on their promise, instead sending you a check in the mail. I probably would've gotten my money quicker had I just let the IRS send it to me!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE, all who read this, stay far far away from scammers like SBBT!!!!! Pros: NONE!! Cons: You are scammed out of your money! more
