I had a Heloc with DCU Federal credit union that I applied for in XXXX with my husband for {$94000.00} This account had a XXXX balance and was in good standing. My husband died in XXXX of XXXX. I brought the death certificate paperwork to the XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. I received an email from them to change tax reporting on my deposit and loan accounts and this was dropped off in XX/XX/XXXX to the XXXX, Ma DCU branch. I found out on XX/XX/XXXX, that my HELOC was XXXX, and I contacted DCU same day. They advised that my HELOC was closed in XX/XX/XXXX and advised that it was closed because the borrower is deceased. They knew he passed 18 months earlier and tax reporting was changed to my name; stated statements would still come in both names- no issues there. Was advised I could use my accounts without interruption. This account was closed without notice to me ( violation of XXXX XXXX XXXX ) I received the discharge paperwork on XX/XX/XXXX. As this is adverse action, I should have received notice of DCU 's intent to close this account. No notice was received. My mortgage, XXXX checking accounts, XXXX savings accounts, money market account and credit card are with XXXX, and I am an outstanding customer who pays my bills on time, never missed a payment, maintain a strong XXXX XXXX and they can see by my deposits that my income has doubled since my husband died. They did not notify me of this adverse action as they should have.
