Consumer complaint received 2016-01-11
Company: BMO HARRIS BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: TX
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
My Mortgage with XXXX was sold to BMO Harris Bank in XXXX of XXXX. I have never had an escrow account as part of my loan agreement as I originally paid 20 % against the sale value of my house. After my mortgage was transferred I continued to pay my monthly payments as usual until I received a statement in XXXX of XXXX where it indicated that BMO Harris paid my year end property taxes and Homeowners insurance. On top of that they paid XXXX dollars more against my property taxes then the actual cost. All property taxes were current and on top of all this I had paid my property taxes and Homeowners insurance as well. BMO Harris never told me nor should they have ever paid my taxes or homeowners insurance. As a result of BMO Harris paying my taxes and insurance they have now issued me an adjusted statement stating that my escrow account is {$26000.00} in arrears and that they are adjusting my monthly mortgage payment to address the escrow shortfall. My new monthly payment would now be in excess of {$6700.00} per month. I have been in contact with both their customer service department and Escrow department continuously for the last two months. They have freely admitted that when they took over the mortgage account that they set it up in their system incorrectly which resulted in their paying out of an escrow that does not exist. They keep telling me that they are going to fix it and get their money back from both the XXXX and insurance company. My mortgage payment is out withdrawn from my bank account around the XXXX of each month and as of XXXX XXXX, XXXX they started withdrawing the {$6700.00} from my account which now has created serious financial difficulties for me. The bank is in breach of their fiduciary responsibilities and perhaps other laws that I am not privy to however I need this remedied. BMO Harris has been woefully non responsive in trying to resolve this and it would appear they just keep putting me off. Next step is legal.

Company: SUNTRUST BANKS, INC.
State: FL
Product: Bank account or service
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Using a debit or ATM card

Complaint:
I have had a checking account with Suntrust Bank for approximately ten months. Over a month ago, I lost my debit card associated with this checking account and reported it lost. The customer service agent told me they would cancel that debit card and send me a new XXXX in about a week. A week later ( approximately ), I received XXXX new debit cards with XXXX different numbers, separately, by mail. I tried to activate both of them. XXXX would not activate, with a message saying the card was invalid. The other did activate, so I continued using that XXXX when I made debit card purchases. 
Over the next month, I noticed that online transactions that I had authorized using the old debit card I had reported lost, continued to be put through my account. Some examples included online memberships, like XXXX, as well as some trial magazine subscriptions. I wondered how they were being processed, because I never updated these companies with my new debit card number. XXXX transaction for {$90.00} for a year subscription to XXXX XXXX was put through my checking account using the old debit card number from the one I had reported lost. I called the customer service of the bank to dispute this debit card transaction. The agent put me on hold to investigate, then came back on the line to tell me that there were XXXX debit cards associated with my checking account. In other words, the debit card that I had reported lost was never cancelled, and transactions that I had previously authorized on the lost card, like online memberships, etc, were still being put through my account. 

The customer service agent gave me a hard time about disputing the {$90.00} transaction for the subscription to XXXX XXXX and it took nearly a week for me to get a {$90.00} credit applied to my account. The bank is considering the transaction as a case of FRAUD against my bank account and has sent me an affidavit form to fill out for a case of fraud against my bank account. 

This was not a case of FRAUD, as I reported my debit card lost nearly a month prior to that charge. This was a MISTAKE by the bank -- -- they never cancelled the lost debit card and continued to authorize transactions on it. 

I am reporting this because these are serious mistakes made by this bank. And for this reason, I will be closing my accounts with Suntrust Bank.
