Complaints from Meijer customers who are repeatedly charged after making a single purchase appear from Cincinnati to Michigan. “It was $ 139.48, about every five minutes, we got an alert, an hour straight,” said Taylor Graham, who had made a single. buy at Milford Meijer. Graham said the charge hit her account 20 times, locking in thousands of dollars. She contacted her bank, but the charges kept coming. “They have filed a fraud claim, but until it is processed, which can be about 10 business days, there is nothing they can do about it,” Graham said. “Frustrating,” said Joe Richard, who had a single charge of more than $ 1[ads1]00.00 on his account twice. “If someone lives paycheck to paycheck and only has a little money, it could potentially lead to many bills being returned for insufficient funds.” Richards bought at Meijer in Eastgate. There are even more complaints in Michigan where Meijer is headquartered. Meijer tweeted out a message to customers. “This weekend we faced challenges in processing certain transactions at the checkout. We apologize for the inconvenience. We work with financial institutions to solve these problems, it is said in the tweet. Graham said she was told the charges, which were pending, would fall off her account before they were charged. They did not. All 20 charges went through, and things got even worse. “From this morning we have a new charge, the same amount. So it’s like it’s starting again, ‘said Graham. She is sure she will get her money back, but her account and patience are drained until that happens.
