Wells Fargo, at it again
Two senators demand answers from Wells Fargo following NBC News reports:
“The senators, Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Brian Schatz of Hawaii, both Democrats and members of the Senate Banking Committee, wrote a letter on July 29 requesting information and documents about Wells Fargo’s policy of placing customers in so-called forbearance programs they did not request.“
The conduct can harm borrowers’ credit reports by showing that they are not making payments even when they are and can prevent them from refinancing their home loans to take advantage of rock-bottom interest rates.
The senators’ letter said the bank “appears to be incapable of self-governance,” and noted that reports of borrowers being placed in forbearance programs they did not want “raise even more questions about the inability of Wells Fargo and its leadership team to comply with the law and the needs of its customers.”

If the banks aren't finally broken and beaten they'll destroy the economy. They must be crushed.

I inherited Wells Fargo when they took over Wachovia in 2009.
I have had both business and personal checking accounts with them, as well as my mortgage and a business loan. I've never had a problem with their services and no one has ever tried to get me to open up new accounts or anything else I didn't need or want.
Anecdotal evidence I know, but I have never had a problem with them.

The worst bank in the world. Why even risk it?

About 8 years ago, the local branch kept calling me everyday, telling me I had to open a new money market account. I already had a savings account and a checking account. I agreed to visit the branch, and they convinced me to open a third account. But they didn't link the new account with overdraft protection, and a few weeks later, my rent check bounced even though I had $85,000 in the account. They did something similar to my parents.
