Consumer complaint received 05-10-2016 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. (OH).
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint: Citizens Bank is closing my account, which I have kept in excellent standing, because they found I invest in XXXX. I have a business account, which generates plenty of fees for them, especially wires. I send frequent wires to XXXX in new york to buy XXXX, which I invest in short-term. I buy it low, and then sell it higher than what I bought it for. I am registered with fincen and comply with all regulations for the state of Ohio and the USA. I have an anti money laundering policy and it is strictly enforced. I have a XXXX company as well that uses the same account. 

What happened was I had asked if I could deposit cash into the atm late at night and the tellers said there should n't be a problem with even large amounts. So I deposited maybe XXXX to XXXX XXXX via the atm a few nights in a row, all at the same branch that I always use, and only I was doing the depositing. This triggered some kind of review on my account whereupon they saw that I wired to XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX which only sells XXXX and XXXX. Upon seeing that they decided without doing any other research, to close my business account, and my personal account too! I never even used my personal account for XXXX or anything. Also when it came time to sell my XXXX, I was very careful with this account. I gave out the information to no one. Only I or my employees deposited into this account. We only accepted cash, money orders, and some checks. We tried to positively ID all our buyers for the XXXX and maintained an XXXX log. We even filed a SAR on a suspicious person. We maintain a relationship with local and federal law enforcement as well. 

They gave me ZERO days to find a new bank. They deactivated my atm/debit card immediately. They want me to get my funds immediately. Most other banks give you XXXX three weeks to find another account. 

I have had numerous banks close my accounts for investing in XXXX. There hardly any banks left for me to go to now. This is totally unacceptable, to be discriminated against for investing in XXXX. These banks should work with investors in XXXX and coach them on how they should treat their accounts instead of simply closing them and suspending all services without giving the customer any time to move. 

And to close my personal account which was n't even used is also totally unacceptable. 

This is for my accounts ending in XXXX and XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Issue: Unable to get credit report/credit score

I was asked by XXXX to send proof with the letter sent to me by the agency, along with a cancelled check, my bank statement showing the amount deducted and a letter stating that I no longer wanted the amount I had been paying deducted out of my account. Greentree still deducted the payment and after I called to ask when they were going to reimburse me I was told by the Customer service rep that because I had blackened all the transactions on my bank statement they would n't send me a refund. That I needed to send them a bank statement without the blackening of my transactions. I responded that I did n't blacken the amount withdrawn by Greentree and I believed my transactions were private and there was no need for Greentree to know my business. To this date, I have not received my refund and they are not returning my calls.

Consumer complaint received 09/21/2016 about Mortgage (FHA mortgage) with M&T BANK CORPORATION (PA).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I paid in full the FHA mortgage loan began with M & T Bank on XXXX XXXX using the amount of payoff given to me verbally. Within an hour ( EST ), I sent my check via US Priority Mail ( tracking number XXXX XXXX ) signed by one of their officers. The check # XXXX for {$160000.00} was drawn on XXXX and it was received and signed for. A week later after questioning the process, a bank representative transferred my call to another officer for clarity. I learned then that they had not posted my payment as final for it did not arrive at their office. I sent the check to M & T Bank, XXXX. MD. XXXX. A day later an officer returned my call stating that the check did come but the amount quoted was n't accurate and they now wanted to take this ( mysterious amount ) from the overage in the escrow account which then had {$870.00}. Without knowing whether this was legal, or right, I sought the advice of a lawyer who called on my behalf -only- to get the " run around ''. He suggested that they probably were wrong and to make a formal complaint as a consumer to your office. To date, I have three different letters from three different offices requesting more money -adding interest- as though the cashier 's check -had not arrived timely and the full amount of the payoff was incorrect. I used the figure quoted through XXXX XXXX, XXXX in the amount of {$160000.00}. For your records, I have a copy of the Priority mail express receipt showing that the letter would arrive by XXXX of XXXX XXXX, XXXX. My question to you is this, why if I paid the full amount quoted to me that would close the mortgage loan in full as stated, would this bank recompile another figure and take it from my accumulated escrow balance. And if this is an FHA loan, should they be allowed to dupe the consumer in this way? Such dishonest? 
I do not have the where-withal to attach the official check, the priority mail receipt, the four letter stating the balance on the closing day of XXXX XXXX if XXXX with Interest through XXXX XXXX, XXXX calculated at XXXX, pro rats MIP of XXXX and recording fees of XXXX total amount to pay off loan in full ... .. XXXX. The letter then said, the current escrow balance is : XXXX. 
The following clause : An additional month of interest is due if payoff funds are received after the first business day of the month, all figures are SUBJECT TO CHANGE. This statement expires on the last business day of the month. Figures must be updated after that date. In addition, figures will be adjusted if any transactions such as escrow advance, payment reversal, or fee assessment take place ....

Consumer complaint received 08/29/2017 about Mortgage (Conventional home mortgage) with PHH Mortgage Services Corporation (NH).
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint: PHH Mortgage company has stopped accepting my monthly loan payment. In XXXX XXXX, PHH mitakenly claimed that I did not have home insurance on the property. I provided proof that I did have insurance. However, this mistake by PHH triggered problems with the mortgage, putting my payments in arrears. I continued to make my payments but these were always considered in arrears because of the escrow account set up by PHH. Six months ago PHH stopped accepting my monthly payments and now PHH has sent my loan to a law office to begin foreclosure proceedings. 

All I want is a detailed review of my loan to determine why PHH took out lender 's insurance on the property given that I also had insurance. Also, PHH has created an escrow for property taxes, even though I have never been late with property tax payments to the City.

Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: Due to a series of financial misfortunes, my wife and I fell behind in our mortgage.

This is just not the case - loan payments and taxes on the house equal about half of our monthly income, leaving us insufficient money to pay our other bills and feed our XXXX children.
