My mother pays a portion of her disabled brothers insurance every month (it’s around $7.00/mo). She pays with a personal check through the mail.
She was shocked to find out that they erroneously withdrew nearly $700. She showed me the duplicate check and it was only $7.00, and the written portion was undeniably written as Seven dollars and 00 cents.
They’re telling her they cannot reimburse her account for at least 10 business days.
This is putting an unnecessary financial burden on my mother who’s only income comes from her and my father’s SSI.
Does she have a legal claim here? I told her she should contact an attorney.

There’s nothing an attorney can do that will resolve this in less than 10 days, unfortunately.
