Complaint What Happened My wife holds a conditional XXXX. She applied for a loan with Sun Trust for part of her educational costs, and I agreed to co-sign the loan. Sun Trust indicated in its eligibility requirements that permanent residents were eligible to apply for a loan. We received initial acceptance of our application and began the process of supplying all required documents. At the end of the process, Sun Trust rejected our application saying that they would not provide a loan to a conditional XXXX holder. This requirement is not stated in their eligibility requirements. If it had been, we would n't have applied to them. As a result, we wasted a good deal of time and effort in fulfilling their documentation requirements, and I may have suffered adverse consequences to my credit report because of their credit inquiry and ultimate rejection of our loan application.

Complaint What Happened Suntrust Bank is denying my student loan application based on income/race/language discriminationI am a student going to graduate school and am seeking for a XXXX student loan from Suntrust Bank. The loan is approved for credit but is requesting additional documents for my cosigner to verify his income. This bank is always using the reason cannot verify cosigner's income to reject my applicaiton. Loan ID: XXXX Spoke to suntrust custom loan representative XX/XX/19, asked why additional document is required. Said that the cosigner's income doesn't match the the amount on the paystub. He told me income can be projected, try to use the formula using weekly pay x 52week = annual gross income. If the number doesn't add up, I have to re-apply using a lower income amount. Loan ID: XXXX I reapplied, using the formula, put XXXX for cosigner's income. $XXXX/hr x 40 hr/wk x 52 wk/year = XXXX. Uploaded 3 recent paystubs, again asked me to provide additional document for the cosigner. Called suntrust custom loan representative XX/XX/19, asked why? They said they cannot verify income, didn't give a reason, just saying doesn't add up. So I spoke to the supervisor, he said that the number doesn't add up, no why. When I asked how much the cosigner need to put for his annual gross income? He didn't answer, said he can't provide me additional information if he cannot speak to the cosigner. The supervisor is also not willing to connect me to the loan origination department to ask for details. But the cosigner, who's my father, cannot communite in English. He started his job this year, working full time, earning $XXXX/hr. I and my father didn't do anything wrong, and Suntrust bank is kept rejecting our documents without providing a clear reason or any instructions to help us proceed the loan.

Complaint What Happened The mortgage company received over XXXX for past due taxes. They only needed {$10000.00}. A partial refund was received and the mortgage company kept the additional money they received from NY state without permission or my knowledge. Instead of paying the current tax bill with the money they kept, they applied the money towards the principal on the mortgage without permission or knowledge. It took two hours on the phone, because the bank kept stating they never received the {$27000.00}. Which I have documented from the bank itself.

Complaint What Happened XX/XX/XXXX - opened account XX/XX/XXXX - received email confirming digital banking enrollment XX/XX/XXXX - received email ( included ) confirming promotion enrollment XX/XX/XXXX - received phone call from Suntrust to review account and verbally confirmed eligibility for promotion on phone with banker XX/XX/XXXX - received voicemail from XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) as part of a three week follow-up XX/XX/XXXX - escalated issue to XXXX at SunTrust about missing promotion XX/XX/XXXX - XXXX followed up stating I was ineligible for promotion due to having opened account on phone XX/XX/XXXX - followed up with XXXX with information to contrary showing I didn't have any outgoing phone calls to SunTrust, instead had incoming call from SunTrust XX/XX/XXXX - followed up with XXXX, he was escalating internally XX/XX/XXXX - followed up with XXXX, no reponse XX/XX/XXXX - followed up with XXXX ; received response later in day that not eligible due to state of residence XX/XX/XXXX - sent letter to Office of President at SunTrust ; never received a response SunTrust has deceived me with promotional terms to open an account, deposit funds for a duration and perform certain transactions, then never fulfilled promotion and then change terms to avoid payment, as is evidence by the initial denial for bogus reason, then denying with a new reason. The included email proves I was eligible, as they had my information for 3 days before emailing me on XX/XX/XXXX for confirmation of promotion. If ineligible, then should have been notified then, not misled for SunTrust 's benefit. Suntrust 's failure to state ineligibility based upon state of residence while confirming enrollment is implicit acknowledgement of eligibility based upon all initial terms of promotion, except transactions which would have to be performed thereafter, and were all performed as required.

Complaint What Happened To whom this may concern I have a very big issue and a very big problem With SunTrust bank I believe they are in federal violation, You usually must be notified at least 15 days before your loan servicing is transferred to a new servicer. ( And I wasnt notified ) During a 60-day grace period, you can not be charged a late fee if you mistakenly send your mortgage payment to the old servicer The new servicer can not report to a credit bureau that payments were late. ( they are reporting me to the credit bureaus 3 months late ) the housing act require lenders or servicers to Give proper notification when the loan servicing is going to be sold. If your current servicer plans to sell your loan servicing, you must be notified at least 15 days before the effective date of the transfer unless you received a written transfer notice at settlement. The effective date is when the first mortgage payment is due at the new servicer 's address. In XX/XX/XXXX I took out a loan From XXXX XXXX XXXX And I set up automatic payments with them to make sure that all payments are made Promptly and On time, in XX/XX/XXXX I checked my credit report to take out another loan, And shockingly I have 3 months Late From a bank That I never dealt with I never took a loan from them The name of the bank Is SunTrust bank After I called them to inquire what is going on They explained to me That They took over my loan from XXXX XXXX XXXX Going back XX/XX/XXXX, I did not even know They took over My loan from XXXX, I never got a notice From them That I have to start making payments to them And now They are refusing to remove the derogatory items from my report, SunTrust Was supposed to contact me To make sure there I know That is they are my new bank And to make sure that I am paying them Thank XXXX I do not have an issue With funds and I can prove it that I had funds in my account. They did not do Their part in contacting me to make sure that I know that they are my new bank, The bank has 3 addresses For me 1- is a p.o. box and 2- is my home address and 3- is the property address The bank claims they sent a welcome letter To my pill box which I never received They never made any other attempt to contact me or to send me letters to my other addresses At least the property address but they did not And I am losing money each and every day because of them
