Company: SELECT PORTFOLIO SERVICING, INC.
State: VA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
My parents passed away recently, my father being the most recent in 2021. After my fathers passing, he left the house we lived in together to me. Since then, I have been trying to obtain successor of interest with the mortgage company my father worked with, in order to assume the mortgage loan so that I can keep my home. Even though I have provided them with all the information asked for ( deed of distribution, real estate affidavit, trust, and the death certificate of my father ) they have been giving me issues, and refused to grant me authorization. In the words of my lawyer they are engaging in illegitimate, and unprofessional behavior. Since they have not granted me authorization, they stopped me from being allowed to make payments on the loan, therefore, the loan is now in default, even though I have stated to them that I have the money to pay the monthly amount, they just will not authorize me to do so. I feel that considering I have given them all of the documentation asked on time, as well as having the urge to pay the loan, that it is not fair that they are threatening me with foreclosure when I am trying my best to avoid that. I do not want to lose the home that Ive lived in all my life, and that my father worked so hard for just to be taken from me over something that can be resolved. Please help.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NJ
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Closing your account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
When I opened my XXXX  XXXX credit card back in 2016, Bank of America set up my account in such a way that I did not have administrative access to all of my authorized users. Whenever I would make a payment to the corporate account, the payment would appear as a credit on my personal card, and would not apply to my authorized user 's outstanding balance. This caused my authorized account to accrue late fees and interest. When I asked customer service how to resolve the problem, they told me that I had to make separate payments to the authorized user 's card and did not advise me on how to create an online profile that allowed me to access and pay each card 's bill. This frustrating experience led me to curtail usage of my BoA business card. 

In this year, my online access was locked unexpectedly in XXXX. I called the customer support number provided on the website but was never able to get through to an agent. Since my account had a {$0.00} balance, I decided not to pursue the problem any further. However, when my annual fee was charged, I was unable to log in to pay the bill or cancel the card. Although the annual fee was the only charge on the card, my account was marked as delinquent for nonpayment. I called and paid the annual fee and requested that the account be credited for the fees, due to the IT issues and the fact that the only outstanding balance was the annual fee itself. Now one week later, I received a call that my personal and business accounts are being closed because of a late annual fee payment. 

Based on my poor experience with Bank of America 's business products and IT,  my personal account is being affected. I am requesting that the business and personal accounts be marked as customer-closed due to Bank of America 's poor treatment of a customer who otherwise has a 800+ credit score and no derogatory marks on my account. I personally regret not closing the accounts myself since I moved all of my business spending to a friendlier bank and am suffering at the hands of a dormant account.
