Bank of America and BAC Home Loans is the most criminal banking organization on our planet. Their only goal is to destroy millions of lives not help them like they say on their website. This is misrepresentation and false advertising. Quite honestly, the whole banking system needs to be replaced. Many people are standing up and fighting these monsters:

Just so you know, I did pay my mortgage on time and they kept screwingme over. I guess you work for Satan's bank and therefore scouring the internet in defense of their fraudulent practices. I guess you are ok with the widespread fraud that is being committed by Bank of America. People are fighting in wars and losing their lives for this country but no one is addressing the other war that needs to be initiated against these criminals. Then, where is the justice? Crimes are being committed against the people and I guess your ok with it. You better hope that you don't lose your house too. Maybe not if you work for BofA. They already ate Barbara Desoer's mortgage deficit wthout a problem but are screwing everyone else over. http://blogs.wsj.com/deals/2011/03/10/housing-crisis-bank-of-america-takes-533500-loss-on-execs-home/?blog_id=6&post_id=32614

You are a low life and you are very disrespectful by calling me a ###. I am far from being on. It is so sad that a disgraceful piece of crap like you is in the military. No wonder this country is going to the crapper. I guess anyone can be in the military. You disgust me and I refuse to reason with a idiot. Like I said before, I did pay my mortgage. It's not my fault that money was embezzled from me by a company that I am supposed to trust.

I understand Brenda but if the link I posted would have been read, he/she would have known the accustations. I have certain restrictions and I cannot provide every single detail about my case. I cannot understand how someone can scour the internet looking at negative posts about Bank of America and not be affiliated in some way with them. We are in an economical crisis and the banks are the main reason why. And this person "assumed" that I was a ### and that I did not pay my mortgage. Isn't that also an assumption? So who is the one that made the false assumption?

Update by Isabel1170
Mar 18, 2011 1:12 pm EDT

By the way Stealth, you were the one to make the first assumption and I guess you and Brenda failed to see it. You said and I quote: "Pay your mortgage on time each month and you will have no problems." You were the first one to comment on my complaint and "assumed" that I was having all these problems due to not paying my mortgage. You started the war! I was abused by Bank of America and that is it. They are allowed to do business in this country and they need to abide by the regulations. They continue to rob people that have loans with them and bank with them and they continue to issue illegal foreclosures and even foreclose on homes that they do not own and no one is stopping them. They are destroying everything that this country stands for and as a natural born American Citizen I am going to use my rights to the fullest and protect family. You, on the other hand have posted nasty comments that are uncalled for. If I were you, I would not be bragging about being in the military. I am just a hard working citizen who spent her life savings on a home and has disabled children and I do not use vulgar language against anyone. I guess I was raised right and I expect my children to also treat others with respect.

Stealt, it seems that you really did not read the press release because the word "allege" and "alleged" is all over it. Furthermore, if you are in the military as you say you are, you should be aware of one of the privileges we have in this country: Freedom of Speech. If Bank of America blasts their customers and investors publicly blaming them for the lack of loan modifications (they never said allege) then I can certainly speak the truth and speak my mind in a decent and non-profane way. http://www.propublica.org/article/Bank-of-America-Blames-Investors-for-Lack-loan-mods-its-not-true. http://www.bnet.com/blog/financial-business/bank-of-america-blames-customers-for-hamp-problems/2831. The truth is, I am not here to bicker like you. You have left over 4, 000 comments on this complaint board and it is obvious that you like confrontations. I am not here for confrontations, I am here to educate the public about a company that is not abiding to the rules and regulations of business practices. If anyone breaks the law, they have to pay. That's it. If I would committ only 1% of the crimes that BofA has committed, I would be in jail right now. I do not forge signatures, steal from bank accounts, file false or forged documents through the justice system, embezzle money from escrow accounts, misrepresent services, harrass customers, foreclose on property that doesn't belong to me and so on. That is just a portion of Bank of America's crimes against humanity. We are fighting wars in foreign countries for oil or to destroy terrorists but we fail to fight the financial terrorist right here in our own backyard. What a corrupt system we live in!

Apr 12, 2011 2:41 pm EDT

Just read Stealth's posts. Just so you know Stealth, my press release DID have the word "allege" written all over it and the "original" was posted on a website the following day that it was created. The only thing I did to that release "after the fact" was make a spelling correction to two words. You obviously did not read my press release the first time as I had stated before. How can you complain about something that you never actually read?

TheLoveFist II, you are obviously not aware with the amount of money that these banks are making on foreclosures. Many people do not. Do not take my word for it, do some research and you will clearly see the truth. All I know is that I can sleep at night because I am not fabricating a web of lies as these banks have (ie Bank of America). The government allowed this system to operate in Wall Street for may years and now the homeowners are the ones who are getting screwed after they all made billions upon billions of dollars. Most mortgage assigments are forged as well. Mine sure is. Again, don't take my word for it.

No one should expect a loan modification from Bank of America. It is a trick to make you default and take your home. They make much more money that way. They could care less if you are dying, got an operation, lost your job or any other unexpected inconvenience that might happen in your life. Do not fall for their traps. This is called F-R-A-U-D! They need to be exterminated like a bad roach infestation that has corrupted this country's economy. They are committing "widespread" fraud. When you "lead" millions of people to believe that you are going to help them (with their own tax money of course, i.e. bailout) and even make them miss payments in order to get a loan modification, that is called fraud: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraud.

Bank of America is a Racketeering Enterprise! Please read my article here: http://www.piggybankblog.com/2010/11/16/bofa-racketeering/

Bank of America must be held accountable under RICO for Racketeering. Please sign this petition: http://www.change.org/petitions/the-president-of-the-united-states-hold-bank-of-america-accountable-under-rico-laws

Do whatever you have to do to stop this Mafia from ruining your lives. Get an attorney, join a class-action or even sue them yourself (pro se). We need to stop this Monster called Bank of America before more lives are destroyed. Don't let them STEAL your home, fight back. Bank of America wants you to give up and the statistics show that most of their victims do. Don't be a Bank of America Victim any longer!

Comptroller of the Currency Administrator of National Banks Customer Assistance Group 1301 McKinney Street, Suite 3450 Houston, Texas [protected]. This is who you need to contact because something needs to be done to help homeowners because Bank of America is ruining a lot of families and taking homes from individuals and families with them claiming non payments or they cant find payments, etc. I am finally in touch with the Comptroller because if they dont help me I am filing a legal lawsuit against Bank of America for what they are doing to me.

We have been trying to get a retention on our morgage and nothing but lies. They keep requesting one document after another. It's been going on since Dec. they want to send to another agency. Lie, after lie. Depending on the rep you're speaking with they have your documents...then they dont. Then they do. Disgusting operation. Good thing they had a bail out. Guess they'll ask for another the way they run the banks.

I've had my share of problems with Bank of America. The economy has almost killed my husbands sole proprietorship, dropping our income considerably. We've done everything we can to keep our payments to everyone, including Boc up-to-date, and have succeeded. But it has cost us. Our home value went down so much we can't sell it, we've taken out loans to keep us afloat, all with the hope and prayer that the economy would turn around. It hasn't and we're in trouble. I've gone to BoA several times trying to get help under these stimulus packages. Each time, they give me a different reason why I'm not eligible. In some cases, I'm eligible, but there are time factors that shut me out. I've even called back and been told that the original denial was incorrect and I was misinformed, but then, lo' and behold, there was another reason for denial. Over and over again. Now my house is on the market in a short sale. Consequences? 1) I lose the home I planned on living in for the rest of my life; 2) the credit rating I worked so hard to keep will go in the hopper and 3) last but not least, are the tax consequences of a short sale - the bank sends you a 1099 for the difference between what you owed and what they got...and you pay taxes on it as income! Where do I come up with that money? So, no, I don't like Bank of America...they are out for their profits only.

We have filed a complaint against Bank of America at the Superior court in Rhode Island as the BAC Home Loans Lp did not give us a reaosn in writing why our mortagage was not eligible for modification. Bank being a public authority, they could only speak through public record as otherwise people wont have a material evidence to object to their decisions. Not only that the Bank of America did not mention the reason why the mortgage was not eligible for modification but also they have not mentioned under what options the mortgage was reviewed under.

Bank of America is criminal. They are scammers and rip people off. They do whatever they want and have no mercy. They lock peoples loans and charge huge fees on loans that have not been late once. They are the "kick you while youre down and take from the government company". Tthey also let real estate deals die so that they can foreclose and collect the insurance.

Since these last posts, prices must have gone up quite a bit to keep up with gasoline. Norton charged my card 69.99 last night for auto renew. No email or contact, just take the money and run. I did not authorize this and had called to have this removed last year as well. An Indian woman both times. 'Oh Im sorry, it must have been a mistake in the system'. What the hell kind of system is that. Just take money from my bank account because you have my card # on file. If I know where your vault is located, does that give me the right to go to Norton and take 70 bucks for some BS service that I want to offer them. ###, and amazing that this is legal.

I have been abused/scamed/defrauded by banks many times. The incidences become less and less because I avoid them as much as I can.

I have neither time nor information to form my opinion about your case.
But I have an opinion about BOA and about a good number of folks "hanging around" this web-site.
Please be informed that people like Stealth Pilot enjoy insulting other people. He is not in the military, not a woman and does not work for BOA. Stealth Pilot and others behave in a classic way of defending their oppressors. We (including myself) realize our powerlessness confronting these banks. Our politicians have sold us down the river long ago. All us average people suffer the same abuse including Stealth Pilot.
The difference is, that we deal with our frustrations in different ways.
Stealth pretends to be a mighty Steatlth Fighter Pilot. The "potty mouth" should be a hint about his real identity. I deal with my frustrations by trying to reason (realizing the futility of my endeavour), and you deal with it, yet in another way (I guess).
What to do? First reason with people like Stealth over and over again. Eventually you will get through to him. Once this is done we are many and few which oppose us. Then we change the banking laws. Done?
I am not optimistic however.
Good example is famous Joe the plumber. Even so, he made a lot of money with his book deal, he did not realize that he is supporting a point of view which is contrary to his own interests.
This behaviour is exactly what I am talking about.
I have no good advice but "fight, fight, fight" and avoid "them" in the future.

Immodest,
No, banks do not give you notice, nor did they, because as the bank so eloquently put it, "the right hand doesn't know what the left is doing." Do you honestly believe that banks answer to a higher authority than the people they serve? Banks are compromised of people and if you blame the homeowners for not keeping a better eye on their finance, then you have to weigh the banks with the same measure. Perhaps, even a higher one, since they are the ones who set the standard. If I am late on my credit card payment at 0% interest, even by one day, the bank has a right to now charge me 29% or higher...there are no regulation in place, they could charge me as much as 70% interest and blame me for not paying on time.

If the bank forgets to pay our taxes (which they did) or record our mortgage payment (which they have done) where is the recourse for the customer?

Yes, going to court is the right thing to do. It will prove who is right or wrong in this matter, but going to court is very costly, thus far it has cost us almost $40, 000.00. Homeowners who discovered they had been cheated usually don't have that much because by the time they figure out that the bank is setting them up, they have spent all their expendable income trying to salvage their homes.

I believe we are being denied justice because our case is strong and would set a precedence. If they hold off long enough, maybe we will lose our home anyway and they will try to use that to prove their case. Let's face it, B of A has far more money than we do and they do not have to live with the consequences, because it will only be an employee doing his job. Already, their attorneys have petition the court to have our evidence removed from trial. Notarized evidence that was part of our original file.

Many of you who attack us who are struggling, feel safe now, but it will trickle down to all of you, because there is one thing that history has taught us, power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Pleeze, 7, 000, 000 families, All of them shiftless, lazy, whiners? I don't think so! The fact that they were even trying to buy a home shows that they were attempting to be responsible and while I will concede that among those 7, 000, 000 there are some who were simply not prepared. I will NEVER say that it was all of them, not with all the news pointing out otherwise.

It used to be in this country that people would help one another or at least encourage each other. One of the nice things about the neighbor hood I live in now, is that people here do encourage each other and help each other as best they can. No one can carry another's burden, but we can wish them well and encourage them when they are struggling.

Or...we can kick them when they are down.

I have a job and a life and a family and I type very, very fast.

Many of you here think this is just about people who did not pay their mortgage. It is far more complicated than that. Most people want to do the right thing, that is what we have been raised to do. In our household, we have not lost our job, we have paid our mortgage, but the mortgage company held us to a prepayment agreement we didn't agree to after raising our interest rate 1.5% over the original amount.
We had a simple solution. Because we are adults with good credit we would simply find another lender with a better interest rate, after all, we live in a country where we have free will.
But the bank held us to a prepayment penalty that we did not agree to, and because of that penalty we had to pay over $50, 000 more on a loan that was already underwater. That does not include interest and loan fees and attorney costs to try and recover the amount stolen from us.

We have the paperwork and the proof and it has been four years, but our court date keeps getting pushed back. Not only did we have to have the money for the excess fees, we had to have money for trial.
People were hit hard when the economy went south because the Corporations were cheating people. If there was a problem there was no one to call to straighten it out. Each person you speak to has no authority, many of them are from another country!
For those of you ranting against those who are defaulting on their mortgages, you seem to stick you head in the sand when it comes to the hundreds that have been outright cheated in this crisis. Of course, there are many who were not prepared to own a home, but lets face it, the banks make the rules and the qualify us or not based on their rules!
When we were looking for another lender, their were brokers coming out of the woodwork offering to get a loan for us. They would promise us almost anything, but when the paperwork came it was not what they said it was.
One broker even begged us just to sign a fixed loan for almost 8% interest and promised me in 6 months he would get us a lower loan! We all know how that would have ended!
Millions of people in this nation are losing their homes, it is an unprecedented epic of our history! Traditional the American people have paid their bills, or if necessary, declared bankruptcy and moved on. This is an epidemic of extraordinary proportion with senators and attorney generals coming together to seek reform. This is NOT just a matter of deadbeat consumers.

People were not just "hit hard", they were cheated by people who they trusted, banks that they trusted. Hedge funds, insider trading, illegal under the table deals. Banks are about money, that is why they are scrambling to recover their losses by any means possible. The people are about money, also, to raise their families, to pay their bills and to provide the basic necessities, shouldn't they be about recovering their losses, also?

Bank of America does not pay ALL their bills. If a building they invested in turns out to be a bad investment, they walk away. Business decision, it's not personal. This was told to me by a B of A attorney, himself.

No...On a short sale, the insurance pays the difference in the loss. Please verify your facts. It is only right for the consumer NOT to be in the red, when the banks have defaulted on their contracts and their agreements. Which they have done. The news is overloaded with stories to verify this. Promises of modifications that are never fulfilled, homes foreclosed upon that the bank did not even own, contracts that were forged, prepayment penalties that were forged. If WE, the consumers, sign an agreement and do not live up to our end of it, or inadvertently pay late, the banks charge us fees and penalties. We would serve jail time for forging documents. What should happen if the bank does the same to the consumer?

Yah, but they did not have to pay corporate taxes for the year 2010 either, so maybe that is why :)

Understood Stealth, but they gave them a loan that they did not give other private companies, as well as they admitted they did not even need the loans. These loans were given with no strings attached. They made interest on that money for themselves too, such as even at 1% would be 450 million dollars...that is even at 1%. would be happy to give them the 45 billion back too, if they would like to loan it to me :)
.
The point is that they were given that money as an incentive to give modifications, but did not give them, such as they said they would. So they in essence tricked the taxpayers, government and homeowners. They simply just did the math and figured out there was more financial incentive to fraudclose on people instead. This is because they are only the servicer now, and they can only make money on late fees and fraudclosures. This is not to even mention that made bazillioins on selling bad loans to the taxpayer. Loans that they knew were bad. It has been fraudulent from beginning, middle and end.
.
The other issue is that they used HAMP to trick people into these foreclosures. They would tell the people everything was fine and keep sending your payment. People would then come home to locks on the doors and a fraudclosure notices, even though they met the terms they agreed to.
.
If Bank of Defrauding America did not take the taxpayer bailout, Robo signing and Mers, I would probably not have an issue with them. The simple fact is that they get special privileges that we do not get, in which that is one of the major things that Americans fought against in the first place. I do not believe in giving free homes, but I would rather have that than them give the tax money to private banks, just so they can turn around and give themselves a bonus.
.
In the end, it appears that Bank of America went to the real Bank of America (The Government), while having a personal ATM card. Both the government and the banks must be held accountable.

Well, the thing that is not the same is that we did not get 45 billion dollars in tax payer bailout money :)
