A former First National Bank and Trust customer filed a lawsuit against the bank in Martin Circuit Court Wednesday, asking for $2 million to compensate for stress and pain he said he suffered over an overdraft charge on his account.
Barnard Lorence filed the suit himself, claiming he was treated rudely by a bank manager when he asked to reverse the $32 penalty he was charged for overdrawing his account by less than $5.
He accused the bank of falsely advertising that it cares about its customers.
"What they don't say is they have at least one manager who will be obnoxious and arrogant if one attempts to try to communicate with the bank," he wrote in his suit.
