Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I filed a complaint concerning an account that was set up using my power of attorney for my step father. My step father passed away in XX/XX/2020, height of the pandemic. I havent been able to withdraw the funds for some unknown reason since the account was set up legally using my power of attorney. The XXXX name for the account was POA. My power of attorney and a letter from my stepfathers doctor saying he wasnt mentally capable of handling his financial affairs was given to Wells Fargo when I set up the account. My stepfather was in a skilled XXXX XXXX  in Florida. The account was supposedly set up as a joint account. I was able to deposit money and withdraw for the years, approximately 8, it was set up. I asked the bank every year if my name was on the account and the answer was always yes. After he died the skill XXXXXXXX XXXX sent me a check for the personal item account I had set up using my own money. They mistakenly put my stepfathers name on the check. I deposited the check in XX/XX/2020 after he passed away. The skilled XXXX XXXX was sold right after my stepfather passed away. I asked the bank for the check back since it shouldnt have been deposited. In response to the complaint Wells Fargo sent me a letter telling me to go the bank since they had spoken to the branch manager and I would be able to withdraw my funds. I followed the instructions in the letter and the branch still refused to give me the money.

Company: NEW YORK COMMUNITY BANCORP INC

Complaint narrative:
My mortgage was sold to flagstar bank, I've been paying the same amount for my mortgage since I switched lenders. For the month of XXXX my mortgage went up {$170.00}. I called and spoke with an escrow specialist and was told that my home owners insurance went up and that was why. I told her that it didn't and that I was looking at my account at that very moment. She then switched and said my property taxes went up, I told her again that I'm on the county fiscal site and I can see everything and that it in fact is the same as it was. She them went back to when I purchased the home and started to say well your insurance went up since then. I told her I know that but I'm talking about my mortgage changing from last month to now. She then told me to hold on, I'm currently still on hold, I'm saying hello and I can clearly hear her background coming in and out but no one is responding to me. I've been on hold now for an hour and fifty three minutes. I'm going to pay my mortgage with the overage right now as to not have them try to take my home or charge me late fees but this amount is wrong.
