      I am gravely disappointed in Sunmark Mohegan Lake Branch and their failure to effectively communicate & update me on changes regarding a Credit Card offered to me on a recent Auto Loan I had with them in 2022. Their lack of effective communication resulted in a missed payment on a new account that I wasn't aware I had, being my least used card. Since I've never missed a payment on my credit file, this one instance dropped my score 77 pts!! They said a letter was sent in the mail about a new card, as well as a new payment method, rather than making definite contact with me prior to opening this new account, while closing my old one. Since I didn't receive a March statement via email as I usually do (due to the account being closed!), a payment was neglected to be issued. This wasn't not purposeful, but without a statement being a courteous reminder, I was only aware when my we received an obviously concerning letter of a past due account, and the account number listed did not match our auto loan or my last received CC statement. I contacted Jennifer M****** Member Resolutions, as she left a vague VM on 04/03 and 04/06, that didn't seem urgent at all, trying to understand the letter. She was condescending to say the least, saying " It's not her job to remind me to pay my bills". As a financial institution, I would say it's in their best interest to have credit worthy clients. The March payment was due on the 7th, and no attempt was made to reach me until 04/3 and by time I called her back on the 9th, it was too late. I feel that if they attempted to reach me, more directly with a sense of urgency within a weeks time of the payment being late, I would be aware of the change and handle prior to this being reported to my credit. I even asked Jennifer the name of the new app to set up payments, to which she responded," I do not know, I'm not sure." If the people in charge of the accounts are not sure, this shows why I would not trust them to use again or refer.

      I bought a car from * *** * **** in Schenectady New York at the moment andtime Sun-mark Credit Union was my bank before I moved to Schenectady, New York from Albany New York, service was great Staff was great to work with for some reason when I moved to Schenectady New York it went bad. I got my car from *** **** in Schenectady New York. Then It was brought to my attention that I had a good bank and that I should ask for a $2000 loan just to save a couple of dollars the car was only $7000 so I put down $5000 while Sunmark only gave $2000 to the $5000 to make the $7000 while they added an extra thousand to the lone. After getting the loan from Karen, Karen Became very uneasy to deal with her tone/disposition begain to change. To top it off Karen never notified me of where my vehicle would be auctioned off when and where and by law it practically must but Karen was bitter about the situation so bitter that she added on extra fees to be mean while she sold the vehicle for the lowest price less then kbb only to show her authority. Every time I called to diffuse the situation, knowing with all the evidence that I have had from the lack of them, communicating with me to they kept telling me someone would call me about the vehicle but never received a call back just kept giving me the run around. While Karen was coercing people into saying she was not available I lost my job as well as my income while being falsely put in debt for $476, while we have not come to a resolution and can’t seem to come to a resolution because her boss for Tom M*** for some reason he’s refuses to write a report on his employee as if he’s taking her side with all the evidence I have he's still not trying to help at all. He’s refusing to grant my requested demands. This should not be legal and it should be illegal for people who work for the bank to be able to Tampa with customers information and credit history. I really feel like I’m being racially profiled
