  • Being an adult is taking the time to fix other people's mistakes.
    Welcome back to Story Time my loves! I have some gems of wisdom to pass on to you guys from a very recent personal experience regarding....finances. They don't teach this sh*t in school and they need to! Don't get caught slipping. Nobody should know more about your business than you do. The more you know the less likely anyone will be able to take advantage of you, your family, or your business. Keep a close and observant eye on your thangsss! Love love love every single one of my precious Glamazons! Xoxo Nikki
    **Our oldest son Julian is now making his own music/beats. All music in my videos produced by him so please show him some love on his UA-cam channel! 5% of the earnings from my videos will be going into a compounding savings account for him so thank you for supporting me and inturn my precious kids! 💙

    The way I would’ve pulled my money out of that bank so fast! 💸 I have heard terrible things about them anyway. But this is why I keep track of every single expense on my phone, even the ones on auto pay. It is extremely tedious but my Type A self couldn’t have it any other way 😅

    Ugh, I can feel the frustration you were experiencing. It's annoying when you have to retell the situation several times because you're bouncing from one person to the next across several departments. Like you think it's a simple fix, but instead they're trying to pin their ineptness on you. In addition, it be feeling like the crap is neverending.

    I worked for the Wells Fargo Credit Card department! I quit within 2 months. During training they mostly taught us how to give customers empathy and how to talk rather than actually learning the tasks at hand, then threw us out on the phones with barely any guidance. In the memos it should've showed the employee why the transaction declined. Fraud usually leaves codes in the notes.

It’s a shame we have to really keep our foot on the necks of customer service agents sometimes. Like if you just accept whatever they say you would be footing so much extra money and excusing so much bad service.

    I work at a Credit Union my position at the bank that I work at is an “MSR2” member service representative. I have NEVER heard of this happening before. That is crazy. Normally if it’s a banking error which in your case it was your banks fault. The bank has to fix it and give you a refund without any kind of a hassle.
    It sounds like your bank tried to pull a fast one on you and just take that money back thinking you weren’t going to notice or pay attention. I hear all kinds of banking stories and this one was a first that I hear about auto pay or bill pay issues. So thank you for sharing this.

    Girl… having to rely on other people to do their job correctly / monitor for errors is truly horrible. I’ve been going back and forth SINCE JANUARY because a lab that my medical tests were sent to never sent the bill to my insurance. They said they “tried multiple times” and got no response yet my insurance never heard from them and is usually very reliable. Myself and the insurance asked for this bill multiple times over the months and then it finally passed the insurance deadline. I filed an appeal but I bet I’ll still have to pay this $300 bill in full because the lab kept messing up.

    After recently leaving banking jobs, them saying they would not process due to a split second of funds not being available is total bs. Having autopay set up is like having overdraft on. Even if you have overdraft off, if you give the business your account and routing or have it set up through the bank app, you are giving them the permission to pull out that payment whether or not you have the funds. Whether they disclose information that off the bat or it’s in teeny tiny wording within the disclosures. That’s usually how autopay works..
