This was already included in my prior COMPLAINT #, and I'm including it again.

I called in XX/XX/XXXX and talked to a man about lowering my payments. He was very helpful and was to send me documents to fill out to ensure we got my payments lowered. I asked him, if I should make payments until we got the due amount lowered. He stated, not to pay until after I received my documents, mailed them back in, and got approved for the lower amount. I never received the documents. I called back in XX/XX/XXXX letting him know I hadn't received them. I took his advice and kept waiting on documents and not paying.

I am the custodian for two XXXX  accounts through US Bank.

The cynic in me thinks that US Bank wants to make the external transfers of its customers difficult and slow to artificially buffer its ledger. But who knows what the truth is? All I know is that I don't feel well served by US Bank.
