Please see the emails below. I had originally applied for a Home Equity Loan at Citizen 's Bank in XXXX for the amount of {$50000.00}. I was told I needed a full appraisal to complete this transaction. I had the appraisal done on XX/XX/2023 and on XX/XX/2023 was notified that I was in the final review and my Home Equity Line of Credit was for {$60000.00}. This was {$10000.00} than I originaly requested. I was told by the appraisor that he would have it to the bank the following day. They emailed me two weeks after my appraisal was completed. After that email I waited and waited and waited. I emailed Citizens Bank today, XX/XX/2023 and got the reply below. No professionalism, no explanation for why it took so long to contact me, and nothing telling me why I would get the preapproval fr more than I requested.

XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( 19 minutes ago ) to me, XXXX, XXXX Apologies XXXX, The appraisal came back short so we were unable to proceed with the HELOC application. Value came in at {$270000.00}. 



XXXX x XXXX XXXX = {$230000.00}. {$230000.00} - {$230000.00} ( mortgage balance ) = {$910.00} Sorry we could not be more helpful.
