We started making regular monthly payments of $65.00 as per the agreement, which we have made on time for over 4 YEARS. We did n't initially request this 2MP Agreement.

After the - financial crisis, business income was only a - of what it had been. I ultimately had to file for Chapter - bankruptcy. Knowing we filed Chapter -, - still approved our Loan Modification without any court approvals. I was quite pleased that BOA had also approved our 2MP Loan Modification. For over 4 years BOA has accepted our payments, but refused to adhere to the agreement that they sent to us and was executed by both parties. During the last 4 years we have had several Customer Relationship Mangers from BOA who have given us conflicting information about why they have not changed our statement to reflect the terms of the executed agreement. They will only explain over the phone that the agreement is null and void only because they never received court approval which is not required on a chapter -. BOA first said they were waiting on court approval which I had no idea I needed. One BOA rep said we should have sent it with the agreement. Nothing in the agreement signed by both parties stated I needed court approval. We asked our Attorney, in a three way conversation with BOA stated a court approval was not necessary in a chapter -, nor would the courts provide court approval in a chapter -. He explained to us that the courts had no interest because no payments are being made to the courts in a Chapter -. In a Chapter - all debts are 100 % discharge. I called the Bankruptcy Court and spoke with - -. She confirmed that the court does not provide court approvals on a chapter -. - also stated that the BOA attorneys should know that. BOA said our Attorney & the Bankruptcy Court was wrong, and I needed to get court approval. BOA is breaking the rules of this executed loan agreement and using unfair practices against me.
