Fifth Third Bank Mortgage Complaint

Conventional fixed mortgage Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Fifth Third Bank Mortgage department,

Conventional fixed mortgage Loan servicing, payments, escrow account Kentucky

I refinanced my home with 5th/3rd Bank. The mortgage was to include escrow and taxes. After the loan closed I attempted to cancel my automatic withdrawal for my homeowner 's insurance. I was advised a balance of $970.00 remained and would continue to be deducted monthly through -. The bank 's explanation is that they did not receive the full attachment sent by my insurance agent indicating a balance remained. The agent has proven to me that he sent the full attachment and that 5th/3rd Bank did not contact them when they received only - page, therefore my - statement was inaccurate as it did not address the remaining balance owed for my homeowner 's coverage. I believed, in good faith, that they had collected the correct information and that the disclosed escrow amount took into consideration my current balance. 5th/3rd is at fault for not determining the balance due on my homeowner 's insurance. When I asked them to rectify this after the loan closed they would not recalculate the escrow to make it correct. Thus, for the next 6 months I will be paying an additional $160.00 per month for insurance. This was not the deal I made with 5th/3rd and poses a financial hardship for me. Through no fault of mine, I will be financially strapped to make this additional payment through -.
