Issue: Opening an account

Subissue: Account opened as a result of fraud

Consumer Complaint: I received a letter from Suntrust saying that I opened an account with them. The letter came with 3 checks and a deposit slip. I have never opened an account with them or have done any business with them so they are opening an account in my name without my permission. I called them and the first question I get asked by the automated answering service is if there is somebody in my house more than 50 years old. What type of bank answers the phone with this question? I hanged up and after reading other similar complaints ( 43 in 3 years ) on your website I don't want to call them again. They do not offer any explanations to anybody. I am hoping that you will investigate this company and do something about this so they don't keep doing the same thing to other people. I can't believe that after getting 43 complaints from them they are still doing the same thing.

Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: I do not think that complaint # XXXX should have been closed after the SunTrust response. I believe that SunTrust sent a Statement of Credit Denial to me in retaliation after I told them I was refinancing with another company. Listed below is the company 's response and my response. In my opinion this is a clear example of a big financial institution throwing their weight around trying to harm my credit. Company 's Response Please know that when loan applications are received, they are reviewed the same whether they are for existing clients or new clients. In addition, there were not changes during the loan application review due to Covid 19. After the initial approval of your application, additional documentation was requested because it was confirmed that there was an undisclosed property and homeowners association dues on the subject property. With the addition of the association fees on the subject property, taxes and association fees on the undisclosed property, it was determined that the debt to income ratio was too high. We did not receive the additional documentation to verify your income and a Statement of Credit Denial, Termination or Change was issued on XX/XX/XXXX. We are required to send this notice to applicants if we are unable to proceed with the loan application. We are unable to reverse or change the Statement of Credit Denial, Termination or Change notice as it is accurate. For informational purposes for loan ending in XXXX, the loan was paid in full on XX/XX/XXXX. The current principal balance is {$0.00} and the current escrow balance is {$8600.00}, which will be mailed to you under separate cover within 20 days of the paid in full date. There are no funds in the unapplied suspense account at this time. The previous owner/investor of your loan was XXXX XXXX in its Capacity as Trustee XXXX. Their contact information is : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Washington, DC XXXX. ATTACHMENTS final response attachment.pdf ( 238.1 KB ) XXXX final response.pdf ( 109.5 KB ) Feedback provided STATUS Feedback provided on XX/XX/XXXX Your feedback THE COMPANYS RESPONSE ADDRESSED ALL OF MY ISSUES No ADDITIONAL COMMENTS Thanks for the response, I appreciate SunTrust getting back after the CFPB complaint was filed. It may have been preferable to hear back after multiple calls and e-mails when the " statement of credit denial '' was issued on XX/XX/XXXX. Regarding the response : 1. " In addition, there were not changes during the loan application review due to Covid 19 '' Listed below is an e-mail from your Mortgage Loan Processor stating the opposite. From : XXXX XXXX XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XXXX ; Sent : Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX To : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XXXX ; Subject : Truist Bank - Loan status Good Evening Mr. XXXX, Due to the COVID-19 there have been recent revisions made to lending guidelines. We need to most recent mortgage statement for XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, OR XXXX. I sincerely apologize for the back and forth and thank you so much for your patience and understanding as we all try to adjust to the ever changing circumstances. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you, XXXX XXXX Mortgage Loan Processor Direct Operations SunTrust now Truist ( Direct number : XXXX ) Fax : XXXX *Mail Code : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX VA XXXX XXXX. " After the initial approval of your application, additional documentation was requested because it was confirmed that there was an undisclosed property and homeowners association dues on the subject property. With the addition of the association fees on the subject property, taxes and association fees on the undisclosed property, it was determined that the debt to income ratio was too high. '' The property is a lot in waterfront community that we have owned outright for 12+ years, it was never undisclosed. The HOA and tax add up to under {$2200.00} a year. Stating that the debt/income ratio would be impacted to that degree is hard to understand. 3. " We did not receive the additional documentation to verify your income and a Statement of Credit Denial, Termination or Change was issued on XX/XX/XXXX. We are required to send this notice to applicants if we are unable to proceed with the loan application. '' SunTrust did not receive additional documentation because I chose to refinance with another source. If I am understanding your requirements you have to issue me a Statement of Credit Denial permanently impacting my credit when I get fed up with your underwriting confusion and select another lending source. It is my belief that SunTrust was disappointed that I refinanced with another source and retaliated.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Deposits and withdrawals

Consumer Complaint: SunTrust Bank put a hold on XXXX from my checking account to pay back a debt I wasn't aware of. This occured of XX/XX/16. My account went negative. In addition to the hold, they've also debited the same amount, essentially leaving me XXXX in the hole. I have returned item fees adding up because of this. The hold isn't set to expire till tomorrow, I can't get any information out of these people. It's almost unsurvivable.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Problem using a debit or ATM card

Consumer Complaint: I have been trying to resolve two issues with SunTrust Bank for over seven months. They are unresponsive to my inquiries, letters, e-mails, phone calls, faxes, and voicemails left. Promises of responses when they do follow up go unfulfilled. In response to a previous complaint that I filed with the CFPB, I received a message on the day that I filed it from XXXX XXXX of SunTrust Executive Services advising me that my case was assigned to a Case Manager, XXXX XXXX. Her message assured me that Mr. XXXX would be in touch with me within 15 days. I left a voicemail for Mr. XXXX who did not return my call. After 15 days elapsed with no contact from or response by Mr. XXXX, I called and left a message for Ms. XXXX. Ms. XXXX did not return my call. When leaving voicemails for both Mr. XXXX and Ms. XXXX, neither of their voicemail greetings advised that they were out of the office and/or unavailable. Anything you can do to compel SunTrust to respond to and formally address my issues would be appreciated since, it has become blatantly obvious, that SunTrust has little-to-no intention of responding to and resolving these these issues.
