My family and I have lived in XXXX county all of our lives, and I purchase my home, planning to stay here my retirement years. Like you I actively participate in my local community, by volunteering my time at our local hospital, school and homeless shelters, But now I 'm the one needing help, I face losing my home to foreclosure and may end up on the streets. I am a good citizen and hard worker that has fallen on hard times. My loan servicer, Bank of America closed the door on communication when I tried to get assistance on my mortgage. I was completely shut down while I was making my trial payments. I am now in a situation where I am holding on to my home by a thread, when all it would have taken was a little bit of effort on the part of Bank of America to provide me access to available assistance programs for homeowners. It has been a very difficult time for me as I struggled to get back on my feet financially and attempt to save my home. 
I 'm a victim of the mortgage dot-com bubble burst, housing market crash. I began struggling financially and took a toll on my health. I was laid off from work, and during this time my oldest son and nephew moved out. I was diagnosed with XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I 'm under treatment and medications. 
As the mortgage Industry collapsed, the work slowed and then stopped in 2008. I was laid off, collected unemployment. After my UE benefits exhausted, I had to take other jobs that were stable, but paid less than I was use to making and could not keep up with my mortgage payments.I reached out to Bank of America for assistance ; I was wrongly advised by Bank of America representative by recommending I fall behind 90 days or more in order to be reviewed for help. They review and qualified me for a loan modification options. I made my payments for 5 months, and due to the improper communication, Bank of America disqualified me and pull me out of the program. My loan should have been review for a permanent loan modification or retention options after the third payment. 

Bank of America has refused to work with me on my loan and I feel that I need my issue elevated to an executive level. I have been able to speak with above the line staff level and I was hoping your office could intervene and get me someone who could take my matter seriously and speak on my level. I should have never had to go through the difficulties they put me through and it looks like they got about XXXX to help homeowners. It appears that my loan qualified for government modification programs when I reached out to them in the past. Now they are trying to take my home away through foreclosure. It 's their fault that I am so far down the road and behind on my payments because they should have helped me years ago.
