Consumer complaint received 2023-12-16 00:00:00
Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Payment process
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
There are 3 issues - 1. Bank of America increased our interest rate on our mortgage loan without adequate notification. If we had known that the interest rate was increasing, we would have paid off the loan earlier. It had been customary for Bank of America to call me directly via my Bank of America Financial Advisor in the past when any of the terms of my mortgage was changing. This did not occur and we were not timely aware of the increase in interest rate. We had asked Bank of America to reconsider the massive interest rate jump from 3 % to 8 %. This interest is now been charged for 3 months and appears excessive.

2. We asked for a pay off quote and received it via a complicated encryption. Upon figuring it out, we paid off the loan on Friday, XX/XX/XXXX for a total of {>= $1,000,000}. Despite the payment, we continued to receive collection notices including and through XX/XX/XXXX we received a collection email letter from Bank of America claiming that we are late and owe the mortgage payment for XXXX months. We called Bank of America today to inquire and to add salt to injury, were informed that the payment has not been applied to our account and hence continues to accrue interest. 
We requested that the payment be applied retroactive to XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX. Bank of America has chosen to delay their communications and review of our account and as a result, forced the account to continue to accrue interest. Hence, Bank of America continues to earn interest via delay tactics and on a notice that was not properly communicated. 

All of that interest should be refunded.

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC.

Complaint narrative:
I contacted Ally on XX/XX/2023 to request a balance letter. I was told that the letter would be faxed. I never received the letter. I called back on the same day to confirm the correct fax number. I was told that I would receive the fax by the end of the next business day on XX/XX/2023. I never received the faxed balance letter. I contacted Ally again and was told that I wouldn't receive the letter by fax as it had been mailed and I will have to wait to receive the letter in the mail. This is unacceptable. This is holding up and could prevent my purchase of a home!!

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — Application denials
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
We applied for a refi through wellsfargo because they sent us a special invitation to apply on XX/XX/XXXX. The whole process was extremely slow ( until XX/XX/XXXX ), our loan team wasn't helpful and didn't know what was needed and most importantly the Underwriter took sometimes a week to review our application for one document. We were asked for an extreme amount of documents, underwriting didnt create task about needed documents/clarification for a credit dispute on credit report, everything was against my husband who disclosed is a minority business owner. We were told if we fixed the credit dispute then we would be approved, after we repulled credit 2nd time ( we allowed due to this misinformation and now have a 2nd hard pull affecting our credit for no reason ) then were denied on XX/XX/XXXX because of the credit dispute we fixed, it says late payment but it was the XXXX case that we paid and had on our loan application when we got approved for our inital mortage through wellsfargo last year ( XX/XX/XXXX ) so it wasnt a valid reason ( at first because no one could tell me why we were denied ( no one called or communicated, I found out by logging into my account ) and the denial letter came with that reason even though we fixed it and were supposedly good ). Then they said it was because my husband 's credit score was XXXX and the cut off was XXXX ( I explained that because he is an immagrant he doesn't have as long of a credit history as someone who was born here and due to them taking 3 months to get to this point the first mortgage hard credit pull already affected his credit unfairly ), then they said it was because my husband has legal action being taken against him like foreclosure or repossession but when we asked what account no one could tell us. My husband called all 3 credit bureaus and everyone said there was nothing. He paid for credit reports and there is nothing. When requested the credit report showing this from wellsfargo mortage team, they wouldn't give it to me. Also, they only used this reason after the fact, and when we dispusted the other reasons. There was no task, communication from the loan team or task from underwriting about this legal action until I called several times trying to get a reason for the denial. Our time, and credit were affected due to the actions of wellsfargo loan and Underwriting team. Everything in this process was strange and illogical, especially because we were refinancing our loan for the same loan term ( not extending it ), for the amount we still owed ( not taking equity ) and to pay {$400.00} less a month. They denied us to pay less money when we proved for over a year we could pay our mortage and on time.
