      Complaint Against:
      • Magnolia Bank
      • ******* *******

      Nature of Complaint: Predatory Lending Practices and Fraudulent Loan Purchase

      I am filing this complaint regarding Magnolia Bank’s predatory lending practices and ******* *******’s involvement in the purchase of my loan despite known fraudulent activity.

      Summary of the Issue:
      1. Fraudulent Lending and Deceptive Practices
      • Magnolia Bank engaged in unlawful lending practices in the handling of my *** loan.
      • They misrepresented loan terms and failed to disclose crucial financial implications.
      • They withheld critical documents, including my appraisal, despite multiple requests.
      2. Violation of *** and *** Guidelines
      • Magnolia Bank proceeded with a loan closing despite my missed December 2023 mortgage payment, which should have disqualified the loan.
      • Under *** guidelines, my loan should not have been closed or transferred under these conditions.
      • ******* ******* knowingly purchased this loan despite these violations.
      3. Deceptive Loan Refinance Offer from ******* *******

      .

      Resolution Sought:
      • A full investigation into Magnolia Bank’s lending practices for violations of consumer protection and fair lending laws.
      • A review of ******* *******’s role in acquiring my loan under false pretenses.
      • Immediate rescission of the loan agreement due to fraudulent practices.
      • Monetary damages for the financial hardship caused by these actions.

      Magnolia Bank and ******* ******* have acted in bad faith and violated federal lending laws. If this matter is not promptly addressed, I will pursue further legal action and make this information public to ensure consumer awareness.

      I request the BBB to investigate these companies and take appropriate action.

      Sincerely,
      ******* ********

      on 1/2/2024 magnolia bank contacted me directly. They had my phone number, name, current home address, and loan information. The person on the call would not tell me how they received any of this information. Loan information was mentioned as well. I asked numerous times how they received my information, and the caller was unable to elaborate. Please make magnolia bank aware of the acts below to protect consumers. I never once gave out any information of that nature nor did I ever contact magnolia bank under any circumstances.

      I continually get letters from Magnolia Bank *** ***** ******* ***** *********** ** *****, phone ************, wanting me to refinance my home loan with them. I have called and told them to stop but they continue to bombard my mailbox with their junk. Someone could get my information off the letters they send and would know my loan information. It is getting to be an extreme case of harassment. I wouldn’t refinance with them if I were looking to do so. Could someone from your organization help me to get them to STOP? I would really appreciate anything you could do to stop this constant harassment.

      I have received cold sales calls near daily for weeks asking me to refinance my property. I have repeatedly asked to be removed from their call lists and they continue their relentless calls. This boarders on harassment. When I state I am not interested and to be removed from calls this they proceed to speak over me and push their agenda. This is not a professional way to conduct business.
