    Ascent Credit union is denying my right from closing/removing myself from an account. I opened account #***** for my under age daughter, she is now 21 and living at a different state. I have no communication with my daughter at this time. Asking my daughter to authorize me from removing myself isn’t an option nor should I need it. I have the right to close a bank account i don’t wish to be responsible for. I have no problem paying her overdraft fees of $54 if necessary. I demand my right to choose whether I want to keep this account open or not.

    We appreciate Mayra Barboza's feedback on the credit union's name removal policy and procedure. We are looking into ways to make the process more transparent and easier to understand for our members. I spoke with Mayra over the phone, and I can confirm that her name has been successfully removed from the account using the current process. Again, we appreciate her feedback.

    Thank you,

    Brock M********

    Money was taken from my mother's account without her permission. They paid off a debt that didn't belong to my mother. They didn't give us any warning or anything. They just took the money.
