GBI applied for a HELOC with Flagstar due… I applied for a HELOC with Flagstar due to their advertisment of low / no fees. I lived in Michigan previously and knew the name. My credit report was pulled immediately. I was presented with a list of items to submit which I returned indicating higher "income" changes would show within 60 days. I was declined due to debt/income ratio without considering the increased income. Further, the loan/to/value ratio (their calculation) was less than 70%. I do no care about the line of credit. What I care about is the negative impact on my credit report for 2 years. CONSUMERS be mindful that all credit inquiries remain on your credit report for 2 years. As few as 3 will lower your credit score. My personal opinion is that lenders should pre-qualify based upon a "soft-pull" of your credit.

GBFlagstar Investment Division Failed Miserably As a long time customer, if able I would give this institution no stars. I purchased an annuity from a Ft Wayne, IN branch with a three year maturity. Due to management ineptitude in Ft Wayne and Grand Rapids,MI it has been nearly thirty days since maturity without funds having been sent. In speaking directly to the company that Flagstar brokered with, I was told that obviously they are having difficulty executing procedural matters necessary to correctly process and ensure monies being remitted. While having no banking or annuity sales experience within 30 minutes I successfully completed the required forms which Flagstar failed to provide and was told the monies would be in my account within two business days.

GBI am a customer with them and have been… I am a customer with them and have been for several years. I always make my payments on time. Recently, I accidentally double paid my mortgage. I asked that the second payment be refunded. I have been given the run around for refund the extra payment. The keep emailing me and asking for proof documents to include a print of their payment system, my back records, evidence I have a positive balance, ect... They just keep asking for more documents to delay the refund. When I call no one from the refund office will take my call. This place is a joke. Customer service is terrible. Their refund policy is terrible.

GBInept We bought a house and used them for our loan. After a few months they told us they were taking too much out for taxes and lowered our payment. 18 months later they inform us they made another mistake and did not take out enough for taxes and we owe $6,000 in back taxes. These people failed miserably at property escrow monitoring. Do not use these morons. They are completely inept at banking.
