Consumer Narrative
This company approved me for a large loan ( {$20000.00} ). I was delighted since it meant that I didnt have to liquidate assets to pay for roof repairs. They sent me a separate email with the exact date funds would arrive ( XXXX ). Based on this confirmation of funds, I began to send payments that were overdue. Then we started to play games about which bank account. No business accounts ( I run a small business ). No joint accounts. No investment accounts. No new accounts. The deposit account must match the payment account. Always a different, undisclosed reason. The XXXX came and went with no money. I called, and they blamed my bank for not crediting my account. My bank told me no funds were ever transmitted. Then the only answer I could get was : its being reviewed, dont worry. As checks started to bounce and fees began to pile up, I began to become irate. I was promptly transferred to some supercilious fraud specialist who played twenty questions with me. Im a XXXX XXXX XXXX grandmother. I dont remember the address of a temporary apartment I lived in for a few months 12 years ago!! Well, well have to send it back for further review he gleefully announced. Suddenly, none of the emails contained a call number, and I was declined because my credit couldnt be verified. No attempt was made to clarify whatever problem existed. XXXX promised me three times that XXXX the Manager would call me. Then I was actually told his phone was malfunctioning. Finally an agent said that I should just apply all over again. I did that twice, and now Im being denied because there are too many inquiries. The truth is that they dont want my business because Im old, and theyre afraid Ill die before they get paid. All their vague reasons could be addressed in one honest conversation. The worst part is that Ive lost a XXXX points off my credit score, {$500.00} in bank fees, broken faith with honest business people, and I suspect theyve blacklisted me somehow because now no one will lend to me. I cried all night Thursday night. I cant believe Truist Bank would treat a fine customer this way.
