Consumer Complaint: On XXXX XXXX 2015 I realized that I might have problems paying Suntrust mortgage because the house was struck by lighting. I called and spoke to representative who transferred me several times and they completed a three way call with XXXX XXXX XXXX to provide a credit to cover the XXXX 2015 payment. A three way call with all parties stating they recorded and banking info provided to debit the account. XXXX XXXX XXXX agreed and said they would credit it and then receive the payment from me XX/XX/2015. Suntrust sold the loan to XXXX and never pulled the XX/XX/XXXX payment as agreed, Did n't apply the XX/XX/XXXX payment that I paid and submitted information to XXXX that my last payment was in XX/XX/XXXX with no insurance on the home even though it is attached to the mortgage. I only found out when XXXX sent me my first statement requesting proof of insurance that no payment had been paid to my account. When I called Suntrust they said they have no record of it even though my Bank account shows the opposite. XXXX XXXX XXXX has provided documentation twice to them. XXXX is now my primary mortgage company which a payment was made but my credit and late fees had taken a negative hit due to their negligence because they violated RESPA. XXXX said they have until XX/XX/XXXX to fix the situation which no current statements show any progress. Since they did not pay any payment I am now 2 months behind instead of current which will be currently eventually but not for a while. Suntrust has also refused to take any responsibility since they no longer own the loan.

After making all payments in XXXX and the principal on the loan reducing, we do not understand how the interest paid increased from XXXX to XXXX when the principal decreased. By letter dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX to Suntrust Mortgage Inc., I requested a complete and detailed explanation as to why the interest paid on the loan increased when the principal decreased. So far no response! Phone calls to Suntrust have been unproductive.

Consumer Complaint: Suntrust made a fraudulent transfer from one of our accounts to the other, leaving us with less than {$30.00} to survive. Here 's what happened. A few months back I lost my job while my husband was in the midst of looking for stable employment. We had XXXX accounts with Suntrust ; XXXX fell behind while we were trying to get back on our feet. We received correspondence from Suntrust letting us know the account was behind and by how much. We went into the branch to communicate our situation with Suntrust and to freeze that account, with the understanding we would make a payment arrangement. We also asked that the Overdraft Protection be removed from both accounts. We were assured that this would be sufficient to prevent any withdrawals or activity in the frozen account while we get back on our feet. Last week, we noticed a " transfer '' from the active account to the frozen one. This caused our account to be overdrawn and charged the {$36.00} fee ( which was NOT supposed to be charged since they were supposed to have removed the overdraft protection ). We immediately reported it as fraud. The XXXX was credited back. It seemed that all was well. This week, before paying a bill, I checked our active account, and there was less than {$30.00} in it. The entire balance had been transfered to the " frozen '' account without or knowledge or permission. I went to the branch to speak with the manager -- she profusely apologized and gave me the number for the credit department. It seemed that none of the efforts we had made to set up a payment arrangement had been documented by any of the agents we corresponded with. When I called the credit department, I was told there was nothing they could do. Meanwhile, our rent, and car payments are behind and in serious jeopardy. This could not have happened at the worst time. In short, I am reporting this because Suntrust seems to have gotten so " large '' that the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing. There is no accountability.

Consumer Complaint: Suntrust bank has decided to terminate my account. That is fine with me as I wanted to close the account anyways. However, the bank has indicated to me that they are holding the funds for some amount of time. I want to close the account, they want my account closed, I do n't see why they need to hold my funds. Please send me a check with the remaining funds in the account.

Consumer Complaint: While searching online to consolidate some loans I had, I came across information that said some of the loans I had were actually illegal in my state. I searched and researched some more, and found a non-profit that helped me to understand that the loans I had were void in my state of Virginia, and why. They also alerted me to the fact that under XXXX rules, I could request that my bank refund what I had paid to the lender of the void loans, because they were not valid and I never gave true authorization, because I did n't know the loans were void, and the companies neglected to tell me. I wrote a letter to my bank with all of my documentation on the fact that the loans were void, and also put in an affidavit through their system to get my payments returned to me. I was told that I had to submit their form, but I also went into a branch to and fax delivered my letter and accompanying documentation. XXXX the XXXX, I had spoken with a woman who said that even with the documentation, they could only get 60 days of payments returned if approved. I told her that I would still like to request the entire amount that I had paid, because I thought it was wrong for XXXX to offer loans that were void for me. She told me to fax the information ( letter and documentation XXXX to a number that would handle the request. I faxed the paperwork on XXXX XXXX. The day after I faxed the information, I went into a bank branch to close that particular account ( not changing anything about my other accounts ) and hand delivered the same paperwork and asked that it be submitted that way to be sure that my paperwork made it to whomever needed to see it to deal with my letter and request. At the branch, I spoke to XXXX XXXX, the XXXX office personal banker. She made a copy and assured me that it would get to the right place. Since then, I have heard nothing about my request. I thought I was supposed to have heard back from them by now, 15 days later or at least an acknowledgement of receiving my information and a time frame for response. I did not want to badger them, but I think I should have heard something by now or at least know that they are working on it or would get back to me in a particular time period. Hearing nothing makes me think that they may have misplaced my request, or that they can not follow XXXX guidelines which specifically reference online loans. I was also told, and put in my letter a reference to the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, which also allows for the return of payments on void loans.
