      I send auto payment this is bank for a mortgage every from my bank monthly. They changed the amount, and my monthly payment arrives they can not process it and mark it as late payment. But they take the money still. And then they report a late payment on credit report which hurts my credit score. The issue here is that they cashed the check from my bank and mark it as late payment. Which is that I made the payment at least, but need to adjust the amount.

      Dear Mrs. **************** are in receipt of your comment through the Better Business Bureau. We apologize for the frustration you experienced when trying to rectify your payment issue. When escrow analyses are run in the spring, they often change the loan payment amount. For borrowers who use automatic payments through outside organizations, it is important to update those payments to ensure that the effect of the escrow analysis is realized. We have accepted your July payment and applied it to your account. Additionally, we have submitted a correction to the credit reporting agencies  to remove the late payment from your credit history. We will send you a letter under separate cover that confirms this update. 

      We appreciate the opportunity to assist you. Please contact the bank directly with any additional questions.

      Kind Regards,
      ******* *******
      VP Compliance Officer

      On 10/24/2022, I went to my online banking to transfer money from my savings to my checking account so I could get something to eat, however when I opened my online banking app, my savings account said closed and when I looked at the account, $134.11 was transferred from my account to a delinquent account, with no advanced notice to me, I called and the representative over the phone, was not helpful in anyway she didn't give me a reason no advance notice was given, not a care in the world that the account was open over 5 years ago, or the fact that my direct deposit paychecks go into that account, only thing I was told is I would need to talk with my mom, as she was on the account and that is where is went, I have had issues ever since they merged with *********** about 2 years ago, customer service went out the window, everytime I went into my local branch I was greeted like I was a burden on the workers there, like I was wasting their time or they just had to deal with a customer, I have since opened a new bank account at a new bank and the reception has already been better, I will be moving all my bills out and switching, I am also seeking for the $134.11 to be returned to me, as I was provided no advance notice to the money being withdrawn from my account and my account being closed, this is completely unacceptable

      Before performing a right of offset on an account, the bank makes several attempts to get in touch with the owners on the negative account. These notifications are sent both through online banking, as well as letters sent to the address on file. Included in the notifications are a courtesy reminder letter, a second courtesy reminder letter, a formal demand letter, a formal demand with fresh start option letter, and an account closure letter.  For privacy reasons, I cannot include exact copies of the notices and demands. Our policy allows 45 days to bring a negative account positive before performing a right of offset. If the owners on the negative account have other accounts with North Easton Savings Bank, the money will be transferred, and these details are included in the letters. After reviewing this complaint, as a courtesy, we have reopened the account and refunded the funds. I attempted to contact ************************* on 10/26/22 but his voicemail box was full and I was unable to leave a message. I called back on 10/28/22 and again on 11/2/22 and left voicemails but did not receive a call back. I would recommend to ************** that he close this account and open a single account. I can be reached at ************ with any questions.

      Thank you,

      ***********************
