The Infuriating Reason Wells Fargo Got Away With Its Massive Scam For So Long

I've banked with Wells for over 25 years. They got me with one of these accounts. B*tch was giving me the hard sell on an account and of course stupid male ego took over I didn't went to admit I didn't know what she was talking about so I accepted. Next thing I know I was getting big monthly charges.

Once I realized it I went back to the branch and changed it but in retrospect it's clear she was part of this program.

I learned a long time ago never make any affirmative comment to anyone trying to sell you something online or by phone. Just send me some literature or a link so I can study it and I'll get back to you. It exasperates the hell out of sellers but it prevents them from doing shit like this. All they need to do is record you making an affirmative comment to one of their questions and they will document that as "your consent".

You really ought to change banks. I know you despise Warren but go see her questioning of Stumpf and check out his attitude. It will be a cold day before I do business with Wells Fargo again.

I do despise Warren but I'll give credit where it's due and I heard her drill Stumpf on the stand and it was awesome

Do you know what their purpose was for doing that? Harassment?

I don't think there was a particular purpose in the immediate case........I think it was incompetence resulting from being too large a company to communicate between departments......the collections department was not in the chain of communications with the legal department......crap they were so screwed up that when the foreclosure started they alleged that the legal description on the mortgage was a "mutual mistake" because it didn't include ALL of the property my clients owned and only included the house.....though we had walked out of the closing because my clients refused to give them a mortgage on 47 acres of river front property when the house and five acres had appraised at twice the amount of the loan......then when the judge threw that argument out and the realized the property line went between the house and the pool they wanted to modify the agreement.......my clients argued they could just as easily build a house (or place a doublewide) on the other side of the pool and it did not HAVE to be included in the mortgaged property and it went into litigation......I managed to hold off the mortgage foreclosure for nearly four years and in the end WF gave my clients $50,0000 in cash for the pool......

You can't make this stuff up.

Yet, you do all the time!
 
a big complaint was ( as usual) how Obama ran it (A DC Circuit court recently ruled that Obama’s recess appointments were illegal) and the over-reach into they types of loans they feel are not legit (pay day).

I went out with a banker for a few years, and she would tell me about the pressures to make new loans,
or get them to sign up for credit cards ,etc.
The industry needs all the regulating it can get, since this seems to be systematic

Two answers. I don't see the point of engaging with someone who is a true troll and doesn't contribute to discussions.

Ultimately we all come to this board for our own reasons and can talk to whoever we want and what someone like me thinks about who others talk to doesn't matter. Meaning you can talk to whoever you want

IMO too many here don't contribute much to discussions and fall back on nastiness and flame-baiting. I have zero tolerance for those who call me the "c" word and other assorted sexual nastiness. Those are the ones I thread ban and I don't see the point in engaging them.

You don't hear me say anything about who you ban. I just personally find legion to be pointless but that's just me. To each his own.

There is no way I'll ever accept anything a salesman tries to sell me on. I don't trust them. They are propagandists. If I go to buy something, I've looked up reviews and I know exactly what I want to purchase, and ignore them otherwise. They are economic waste, the scum of the Earth, and when the revolution comes they will pay.

Yeah, so let's give it all over to the Republicans, who will repeal every regulation on the book. Great idea, fucking liberal.

It was Clinton that signed the Financial Services Modernisation Act and repealed Glass-Steagall, just another inconvenient fact for you to ignore!!
