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.

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.

GBRun away from Flagstar Bank! Run away from Flagstar Bank!! Thank me later... They will close your bank account with one letter with no explanation out of the blue. Instead of scrambling last minute to move your banking somewhere else, do your banking with some big-name bank, not this shady institution. Save yourself time and aggravation. We had a checking account with our old bank for 20 years, and after Flagstar took over, the account was closed for no reason... Don't be next. Many other customers at my branch got the same treatment.

GBExcellent Financial Mortgage Company I am the owner of 2 businesses, one of which is a property company, in addition to being a busy wife and mother. We are in the middle of a remodel and I made the mistake of not having transferred the money into the right account in time. I called Flagstar on a Saturday afternoon and within a short, very pleasant few minutes Flagstar had resolved my issues. Reena C. was my customer service representative and I cannot say enough great things about her professionalism and knowledge. I deal with a variety of financial institutions frequently. Flagstar has a great user friendly website which I wish some of the other businesses could employ and when I needed to talk with someone they were incredibly
