I first sent complaint to XXXX XXXX of the XXXX XXXX. He deals with problems. 
He said to contact you. 
I undid an Annunity with Merrill Lynch XX/XX/XXXX. I had held it past 7 years so theysaid I could do that as I prepared to downsize and have money to put down on a house until sold present one. 
What I did not know until tax season here XX/XX/XXXX that there was a " GAIN '' on it and I would pay more then a few hundred on the gain. 

I was not familiar with gains on this type thing and Was told legally by Merrill Lynch they can not even discuss gains or use that term. I apparently waived paying taxes thinking it would just be a few hundred dollars!!!! 
Little did I know I owed {$7000.00}!!!! 

I have talked for 3months to Merrill Lynch and have no satisfaction. They have said Legally they have done everything right. They told me government set up this rule to not discuss gains and that is upto me as a consumer to know or ask, so I am out of luck. 

There is a lady in XXXX with Merrill Lynch that has done the research and sending the paperwork to me!!!! 
So all I Know is I live in XXXX, XXXX and apparently some banking rules need to be changed so another XXXX citizen does not literally pay the price like I did. 

SincerelyXXXX XXXX
