Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/2018 - I went to a local Suntrust branch to inquire about a XX/XX/2018 request from Suntrust Consumer Home Loan Specialist, XXXX XXXX XXXX Ext XXXX. The request stated that Suntrust was requesting a seperate signed page 2 of a Uniform Borrower Assistance Form packet. ( For Background : My husband and I were in the middle of a divorce, and he alone requested the mortgage modifications. I was opposed to them. ) I had been in contact with Suntrust multiple times over an approximate 9month period, continually notifying them that I was not in agreement with the modifications that my husband, who is a previous Suntrust EVP, was requesting. Since the UBAF did not have a place for a signature on Page 2, and since the UBAF packet is a 5 Page composite whole document, that requires legal affirmations for the entire document to be sworn to, on page 5 of the document, I became suspicious about the odd request, especially with my husband having many friends and colleagues still employed there. The local branch representative filled out a complaint form for me concerning both my mortgage and HELOC loans. At XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a call from XXXX XXXX, Suntrust Manager with the Home Mortgage Retention group. I explained to her that I had been speaking with and e-mailing XXXX XXXX over the past several months, notifying her that my home had not been damaged by Hurricane Irma, that my husband used the Hurricane as a way to intentionally default on the mortgage as a means to securing more favorable loan terms without it impacting his XXXX since he is a XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ), and I was opposed to modifying the Mortgage which would add over 21k in a balloon payment to the end of the loan. I submitted a previous complaint ( XXXX ) concerning this issue, however that complaint was directed towards the HELOC loan associated with the mortgage. This complaint is regarding the Mortgage which Suntrust modified in spite of the fraudulently modified signature page and in addition to my ongoing objections. My husband 's document tampering can be clearly seen on the Suntrust Corrections agreement as well as the notarized signature page that I have attached. I have also attached proof showing that I had faxed Suntrust the original pages, long before they received and processed the fraudulently tampered documents. In spite of the fact that Suntrust had the original documents along with my objections, they continued processing the modification with the tampered documents which were very obviously altered, and even initialed by my now ex-husband. Suntrust also failed to report the illegal mortgage document tampering to authorities, leaving him to continue working in the financial industry without consequence, which places hundreds of unsuspecting clients at risk. It is disturbing that Suntrust not only refused to reverse this modification, they also have made every effort to protect their former EVP from being held responsible for knowingly engaging in financial fraud.

Consumer Complaint: We had a mortgage with Suntrust Mortgage that was sold to a garbage company called XXXX.We are not late on any payments. We had 1.5 years left to pay on it. 1.5 not 15 but 1.5. Now we know that we are going to have a nightmare on our hands because something is terrible wrong with XXXX. How can we fight this? How can Suntrust do this to us? I told Suntrust that the best thing I can do is go to the local news channels and alert other people that this is what Suntrust is doing. I really dont believe it is real, and I have been hacked.

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted SunTrust Bank ( VA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, VA XXXX ) XXXX XXXX. I asked the bank to cancel my OverDraft Protection because I wasn't notified over the phone when I signed up for it that if your account is XXXX the bank will charge you XXXX for not have money in your account although there was NO bounced check? Then the bank bounced a check for XXXX from XXXX XXXX. Which is a company I have never ever heard of which cost me nearly XXXX. I asked the bank to cancel this company because I've never provided my bank card to XXXX XXXX and have no idea how they used my bank check card to pay for this service. SunTrust filed to case ( s ) XXXX for XXXX in XXXX, XXXX and Case XXXX for XX/XX/XXXX for XXXX. SunTrust said they can not reimburse for all the transactions unless I know when the money was taken? I attempted to change my OverDraft Protection to NO from my online SunTrust account but each time it resets itself back to YES. So I asked the Clerk over the phone to cancel the OVERDRAFT PROTECTION and she said that she was unable to do so. Please help me. I really would appreciate any help you can advise as you have in the past provided me with EXCELLENT Service. So I am calling upon you again for your assistance as my requests are falling on deaf ears again.

Consumer Complaint: I have purchased my condo in XXXX XXXX, FL through XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX without an Escrow, as I wanted to pay my property taxes myself. After a month, I have learned that my mortgage was sold to Suntrust bank. A few months into my payments in XX/XX/XXXX, Suntrust has placed Escrow on my mortgage and told me that I was obligated to have escrow since I live in a flood zone. I have contacted them multiple times in XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, but haven't been able to get a proper answer on why this won't be removed since it wasn't in my original escrow agreement with XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX in the first place, other than hearing that this is their policy. This has increased my mortgage payments unnecessarily and is creating extra hardship by increasing my monthly payments, as I had made my plans for paying my taxes separately.

Subissue: Company closed your account
Consumer Complaint: I sell online for XXXX. During XXXX I always have a larger deposit because we specialize in toys. I have been with this bank for 4 years and the pattern is evident. This year when we got a large deposit they froze my funds and closed my debit card because of the amount of the deposit. When I called to find out what was going on, I was informed that the bank had decided to end our relationship. I had no access to any money, couldnt log onto my online account, and none of my cards worked. I am still in the waiting period for my funds to be mailed to me. I have incurred bounced check fees, online reversals of payments, delays in deposits from other sources, and just general frustration. How can banks do this to people? I literally have XXXX in the bank but cant get gas.

Consumer Complaint: Suntrust bank continues to assess overdraft charges while my account is still positive. Their explanation continues to be that my balance on online banking is not the correct balance, that I am not able to see the actual balance.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage
Subissue:
Consumer Complaint: In XX/XX/2018, I became unemployed. I immediately began looking for a new job, but by XX/XX/XXXX I realized it would take longer than I hoped. I filed for a forbearance program with my mortgage lender in XX/XX/XXXX, and was approved for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX - although no one is sure why it wasn't 90 days instead of 60. Immediately there began to be problems, as one arm of the company was calling me and sending letters even in XX/XX/XXXX, saying that I was behind in my payments. In XX/XX/XXXX, I spoke with the loan point person who said it was time to reapply for the forbearance, since the 60 days was nearing its end and I was still looking for work. I submitted my paperwork, and it was received by XX/XX/XXXX. However, no one at SunTrust actually looked at the paperwork, as I was told later that since the program was not " officially over '' meaning the program ended at the end of XX/XX/XXXX, I was supposed to have submitted my paperwork on XX/XX/XXXX. So the XX/XX/XXXX application was never looked at, even though they received it. By the XX/XX/XXXX I was again receiving calls now saying that I was overdue for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, and this was also reported to my credit. I resubmitted the packet and it was approved again, and I have had a forbearance that ran through XX/XX/XXXX. By then I had found a new job, but it was in XXXX, Arizona, so I was looking to sell the house and move my family. But SunTrust had not only reported the month of XX/XX/XXXX as late, and then as a 60 and 90 day late, ( which they did finally admit was their mistake ) but now has reported the entire XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX as delinquent. I was working on a new 90-day trial loan modification, and am more than happy to fold those payments into a new loan, but I would rather sell the house, and move my family to where my new job is. But this whole thing has so decimated my credit score, that SunTrust is holding me captive, since I can not qualify for a new loan. And anytime you try and talk to them, they point to a different department and say " You need to call them. '' And every time you try you speak to someone else who has different information.
