Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Banking errors

Complaint:
Hello, I want to make a complaint with Bank of America and with I guess with your company as well. I report a few claims of Fraud with my checking account with Bank of America because I have identity theft reported on my credit store. There is a address and name that is on my credit report that I dont recognize and Im having issues with fraud on my checking account. I guarantee that these too issues are related and this person is using my account and stealing my funds and Bank of America is saying that they are not paying the claims. I already reported this to your company and I received a email stating that I needed to call and confirm some information which I did and left a few messages and I have not heard anything back. This is beyond frustrating because this person was using my account and taking my money and theres nothing being done about it and they are getting away with it. I attached files on my last report so they should be on file. Please reply back to me as soon as you can it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Sub-product: Conventional fixed mortgage
Issue: Application, originator, mortgage broker

Complaint:
In short, XXXX XXXX failed to disclose essential information regarding loans he procured for XXXX of my rental properties, directly resulting in {$18000.00} in additional expense to me and {$6400.00} in additional compensation for him. 

In XXXX 2016 I purchased XXXX rental properties with loans procured by XXXX. At the beginning of the financing process XXXX provided me with disclosures indicating that the rates on the loans would be XXXX with XXXX points payable for his commission. I never received any other disclosures. Partway through the financing process XXXX informed me that he was not confident that he would be able to finance me in-house through Axiom Financial due to my income, and encouraged me to switch to a different lender. I reminded XXXX that if he included my wife 's income I would easily qualify for financing with Axiom, but XXXX told me that would not be necessary and insisted that switching lenders was the right choice. XXXX never disclosed to me that the original rates and terms he disclosed would not apply to the new loans. My attorney later informed me that this was a direct violation of Utah law XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

When I arrived at closing I learned that the rates on the loans XXXX procured would not be 4.625 % as disclosed, but 6.375 % and 5.875 % instead. Additionally, the commission owed for XXXX 's services would be XXXX points instead of the XXXX points disclosed ; a difference of {$6400.00}. Also, a pre-payment penalty of {$5700.00} would apply if I refinanced. If I did not close using the loans XXXX procured, I would lose {$7000.00} in earnest money and roughly {$30000.00} due to XXXX exchange restrictions. XXXX was on vacation in Hawaii at the time and was not present at the closing to comment on the matter. 

I closed using the loans XXXX procured for me and immediately sought refinancing. The first lender I contacted was able to easily refinance me at 4.25 % on both loans ( it was not necessary to include my wife 's income ). I have now incurred {$18000.00} in unnecessary expense due to XXXX 's unethical behavior : {$6400.00} in paid for XXXX 's compensation above what was promised, {$5700.00} in pre-payment penalties, {$1400.00} in additional loan interest due to the rates being higher than the 4.625 % XXXX disclosed, and {$4900.00} in closing costs for the new loans. When I contacted XXXX about the matter he blamed the lender for failing to disclose and refused to refund the additional amount paid for his commission as he is required to do by law. ( My attorney later informed me that XXXX had full responsibility to disclose, regardless of the lender 's actions. ) Since my experience with XXXX I have learned that several of my personal acquaintances have also had negative experiences with him professionally ; at least XXXX of whom is a former client of his.
