Bank Came Into My Home When I Wasn't There

[Pandora]

I'm with Shark & 'Hub - intruder in my home wouldnt of left (at least until police arrived) ..... unless they could outrun 1750 feet per second and fly like Superman.

I have a german sheppard who makes regular german sheppards look small. If someone came into my house when I wasn't there they would be lunch or toast, you pick! The UPS delivery guy knows.

Davidb1: How did you enter your house?

I tend to agree with Billssuck, sounds like a flimsy excuse by a savy thief. One thing I've discovered since filing BK is that your name, address, and everything else included in the BK paperwork is public knowledge and can be accessed with anyone who has a PACER account. I'm getting junk mail nearly daily about my BK, and how all these people can 'help' me. Anyone can find out who your mortgage company is by looking it up on PACER. Maybe the guy is legit and just terribly aggressive, but he was in the wrong. Beware and be assertive. Wishing you well.

I think it comes from the credit bureaus; I have opted myself and my wife out of getting "promotional credit offers" from them and we haven't hardly gotten any mail at all trying to "help" us. Now if I could just make these energy choice people go away ...

Good suggestion, catleg. I've put myself on the do-not-call list and up until the BK, hardly received junk mail. I hadn't thought about opting out on credit reports - which having to opt out at each bureau is nuts if you ask me - but they didn't, so, there you go. Thanks!

I've also put a permanent freeze on all our credit files too. A good idea IMHO given how little use we have for credit now.

I came home Friday and someone from a company that was hired by my bank was in my home. Freaking Outrageous!!!

He claims he's supposed to come in and take photos if it looks vacant.

This was my business line of credit and NOT my mortgage.

Assistance Anyone???

Next time call the cops while the intruder is still there and report a break in. The bank does not have the right to have someone enter the home that they do not own. And until your name is off the deed, you are the owner and not the bank. That person broke the law.

[discouraged]

Exactly - just prior to filing I received a letter from the bank stating they were turning my account over to the foreclosure department and they had the 'right' to come into and inspect my house. BUT - there was no mention of doing it without my being there. Also, how in the world did they get in? I know that after I had some remodeling work done I changed the locks so how could someone get in unless they broke in?

I would simply have filed a criminal trespass and breaking and entering complaint with the police department. Luckily, he wasn't in my home, because he'd probably be injured as I defended my property.

really, the police should have been called. especially, to make a record of what happened. i hope OP filed a complaint.

I think that there is definitely something shady gong on! This guy that was in your house should be in handcuffs.

field services came to our home and changed locks, locked us out. they were supposed to "secure" the home and winterize. they did not do it all right and we now have no heating in our home due to their negligence.
i asked the bank the name of the company they use and was told that is confidential information. WTF???
