Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue related to modification, forbearance, short sale, deed-in-lieu, bankruptcy, or foreclosure
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
In the past I was in constant communication with my bank provider regarding my past due, I told them I was waiting on the status of a program called XXXX that could help me with my mortgage. I also asked in case if I didn't qualify could I also apply for a loan modification, they said I could. I received a letter from bank of America towards the end of XXXX that I was sent to collections. I called right away to ask what was going on or how can I pay my past due and they told me I had to go through that attorney and pay whatever they charged me. It made no sense because in the past, I have always been able to ask or speak how to resolve my outstanding balance. They even limited my access to see any statements online which is how i would constantly check in case I missed anything. I've had higher past due balance and this has never happened to me before, they never gave me the chance to speak with me or to talk about how I can pay my current balance before sending to collections. I feel like I'm being treated unfair, they are usually rude and don't want to offer me any solutions.
