FLIPPIN' BANK~

My mortgage came up for renewal at the beginning of the month.  I contacted a Mortgage Broker who found me a GREAT deal, thru a different lender.   Everything was going along smoothly~until my bank decided they wouldn't accept part of the agreement.  Well, that's business, I understand that.  But I don't understand them not getting back to my Notary until 20 minutes or so before the close of the business day, the day before a 4 day long weekend.  Which added all kinds of stress and many $$$ of interest and extra payments for me.

The other day I received a letter from my bank, stating they'd paid out my mortgage.  Apparently I'd overpaid, and they'd refunded the 14 cents to my account!  Flippin' bank.  Their dithering around cost me $2200, but thanks for the 14 cents.  And yes, I'm in the process of changing banks...

  2. Hi Merium
    Thanks for the comment over my way and good luck with the giveaway...

    You know banks suck!! haha.. I have worked for many as a contractor in IT... and they are just as sucking with staff as clients.. although they are getting their act together more these days...[here anyway]

    I just read your previous rant about the contact lens.. hahaha.. had a good laugh... really sounds like something I would do... I finally gave up trying to wear them.. irritate my eyes too much.. but loved your story about the contact floating in your brain.. brings back many memories.. So have you ever thought about getting the lazer treatment? It is on my mind lately.. so sick of glasses.. but scaredy cat to try the op.. not to mention$$$...
