On a serious note I had a real problem with BB&T (Branch Banking and Trust) Mortgage department.  My mortgage payment was automatically taken from my checking account every month.  Out of the blue I get a notice that I had not made a full payment and there were late fees involved.  I contacted my bank and they told me they had sent the full payment.  I called BB&T and they told me they would "look into it".  Since I figured it was just a minor mistake I didn't follow up on it until next month when I again was told I was behind in my payment.  I called BB&T again, but this time I spoke with a supervisor.  Again I told them the full amount had been paid on time, and again I was told they would "look into it".  When I still didn't hear back from them I filed a complaint with the Federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Finally I heard back from BB&T.  They claimed that a part of my mortgage payment had been applied to another account belonging to another person with my name.  I never believed that story for a moment.  It just didn't make any sense.  I think one of their employees stole some of my money, but they didn't want to admit it.  But the whole thing took almost 3 months to straighten out.  At one point I even made an additional payment to keep a late payment from showing up on my credit report.  In the end it didn't cost me any additional money or late fees, but it was shocking how hard is was to get them to address the problem.
