Home equity loan or line of credit Settlement process and costs Tennessee

I recently applied to increase my credit line for my home equity loan with Regions Bank. I called and talked to - - - - at Regions. She quoted me a rate of 2.99 % for the 1st year due to relationship rewards and a 3.5 % rate after the first year but on a variable rate. This was much better than my current 5 % so I asked her to start the process. I wanted to increase my credit line to build a covered deck. Once the appraisal and the paperwork were ready I went in to sign the papers. I saw the 6.75 % on the papers but - - assured me that the rate was just calculated differently and that I was getting a better rate .... the rate I was promised. I told her I just wanted to make sure I was n't going backwards and she again assured me that I was getting a better rate. I trusted what she told me and I signed. About 10 days later I got a statement. The first thing that caught my attention was that the finance charge was around $15.00 higher than the month before. I had


could to correct this. A few days later she told me that the bank had agreed to give the the 2.99 as promised for the first year but I was stuck with the 6.75 % rate as I had signed the papers. I signed the papers under the understanding that I was getting the lower rate. I feel that I should be able to revert back to the original loan with the original credit limit as it has been less than 30 days. She told me that I was only given 3 days to back out of the loan. I had not received a statement at that point so I did n't realize there was a problem yet. I just want to revert back to my original loan as I was given incorrect information during the signing of the loan papers.
