I *have* a Huntington savings account, and the minimum
balance for no maintenance fee has been $200 for years.

And they *do* send notices of changes in fees.

How long ago was the account open??

I'm surprised. IMHO, Huntington is the only reasonably
large bank that doesn't have the large-bank attitude.
This doesn't sound like them at all... but you may have dealt
with idiots when you talked to them... there are always plenty
of morons working at any large company. I have had no such

no matter what else you do...
