Bank of America has no heart! Read how they deny an already granted loan mod!

Bank of America is AGAIN denying/declining/rescinding an already granted loan modification to this particular homeowner. After months, years of trying to get thru this Bank of America will probably proceed with foreclosure. 

If there is anyone out there who knows who to complain to when things like this happen, please let me know so we can all take collective action against Bank of America.

My thoughts are with Gail Robinson at this time when her family needs her most.

BOA SENT ME A DECLINE LETTER TODAY AS MY HUSBAND WAS BEING ADMITTED INTO HOSPICE

I made all the trial loan modification payments on time over the phone via my BOA Customer Relationship Manager, yet today I received a FedEx letter stating that my permanent loan modification was DECLINED.  At the same time as the letter arrived, the hospice nurse came to sign my husband up for in-home hospice care.  Can you believe this????

The letter from BOA states "Thank you for contacting us regarding the Home Affordable Modification Program.  While we realize this decision comes at a difficult time in your life, we regret to inform you that we are no longer considering your request for a modification because after being offered a Trial Period Plan, you did not make the required Trial Period Plan payment by the end of the first month of the trial period."

I made the first trial payment on 3/4/13, the second one on 4/2/13, and the third one on 5/2/13.  The original letter from my BOA Customer Relationship Manager outlining the terms for the trial period dated 2/25/13 stated, "To participate in the Trial Period Plan, make your first month's trial period mortgage payment as soon as possible, but in no event later than 30 calendar day after 4/1/2013."

Since I made the first payment on 3/4/13 and it was not due until 4/1/13, it seems to me that I am in compliance.  

This was so upsetting that I could not focus properly on getting my husband admitted into hospice.  My husband is very upset.  He has Stage IV, Pancreatic Cancer and was diagnosed 4 years and 4 months ago.  He's now in the end stages of the illness.  

Can you see where I made an error?  Perhaps I'm not thinking straight due to the stress of putting my husband in hospice today.  It's an emotional day.

Why wouldn't my BOA Customer Relationship Manager call me to tell me ahead of time that this letter was going out?  Why won't she return my calls.  I have had to ask for an Appeal, but this is the last thing I need to focus on right now.  My attention should be 100% on my husband in his final days.  

BOA have a heart!!!!
