SunTrust Bank Mortgage Complaint

Conventional fixed mortgage Credit decision / Underwriting New Mexico

In the process of refinancing my house with suntrust mortgage company I was providing all the documents required and following all their instructions to have my house refinanced. The whole time I was being led to believe that everything was on track. during this time I was told that I need an appraisal on my house and that cost -. Everything is on track I believe. I would call suntrust to follow up on the progress of my refinance and was told that paperwork was being processed. Approximately two weeks after the appraisal someone from suntrust called me and said that I was denied to refinance my house because my income to debt ratio was to close. I had never spoken with this person during my refinance process and he could not answer any of my questions. I called the agent I was working with and had to leave several messages before he would return my calls. When he finally called me back I explained to him that they should have known I was approved before they took my money. I have spoke with other lenders who said they should have never taken my money until they knew the deal


I have been very patient but I feel like their giving me the run around. The last time I called he told me that the appraiser is sending me the money but I have yet to see a check in the mail. I spent almost - with no service provided. I think it 's wrong, illegal and very dishonest what they are doing and how they handle their business. I would like my money back so I can use that to go a different route in refinancing my home. During the process there was never a change in my income or credit. They had all the proper paperwork with my income/debt. With that information with them they should have been able to determine weather or not my refinance was going to go through before they charged me for the appraisal.
