Applied to US Bank for a refinance of original US Bank mortgage and a US Bank equity loan ( all inhouse products for them ) on XXXX. They required me to write them a {$1900.00} check for Escrow of insurance and taxes even though I had a {$2200.00} escrow balance with them on the existing mortgage. As of XXXX/XXXX/15 they have yet to refund my original mortgage escrow balance. They sent correspondence that any balance due would be issued in approx. 30 days. The first due date was on XXXX and they have had more than 30 days to issue funds. These funds were also in their possession so they could verify the funds with no issues and no third-party. It appears they are using consumer funds to create quite a substantial " float '' without paying any interest on these funds.
