Tycko & Zavareei LLP Files Class Action Against Wells Fargo For Fraudulently Charging Overdraft Fees On Lyft, Uber And Other One-time Debit Card Transactions

The complaint alleges that Wells Fargo promises its customers who did not opt into the Debit Card Overdraft Service that it will not charge them overdraft fees for non-recurring, every day transactions, like transactions with Uber and Lyft.  However, Wells Fargo does charge such fees on certain one-time debit card transactions like these that it knows or should know are not recurring. 

Plaintiff Angelo Clamor was charged an overdraft fee on a Lyft ride sharing transaction, and seeks to represent all individuals who, like him, were charged overdraft fees on one-time debit card transactions of Lyft, Uber, or other one-time transactions. 

Jefferey Kaliel, a partner with Tycko & Zavareei, commented that "the bank's contract and consumer protection law prohibited Wells Fargo from charging overdraft fees on one-time transactions like Lyft or Uber transactions, but the bank did it anyway in order to maximize its fee revenue." 

Tycko & Zavareei LLP of Washington, DC and Oakland, CA are representing Clamor, and urge consumers who have been impacted by overdraft fees on one-time transactions, such as those with Lyft or Uber, to learn more about their legal rights.  For additional inquiries, please contact Jeffrey Kaliel at [email protected].
