We have a home loan with USBank, and we 're told our insurance 'ran out ' as of XXXX XXXX, 2015, and were sent a letter dated XXXX XXXX stating we needed to provide proof of insurance, or US Bank would buy insurance for us. After repeated faxes and emails to the contact information they provided, our insurance carrier says the emails keep bouncing back, and when I call US Bank, they have no record of the fax being received, either. Several years ago, we received a very similar letter from US Bank, also stating our insurance had expired, and if we did n't provide proof of insurance, they would buy insurance for us. At that time, we did n't call US Bank, since a call to our insurance provider verified we had uninterrupted coverage for the property, and they faced a copy of the policy to US Bank. However, what we did n't realize at that time was that US Bank had changed their fax number, but did n't notify the insurance company or provide them with a new ( correct ) fax number. Because they 'never received the fax ' they charged us for the cost of US Bank purchased extra insurance, and would n't remove the policy and extra cost, even after we provided proof of continuous insurance. They added this extra cost onto our insurance, without notifying us. It was several hundred dollars more a month, for over a year. My fear is that they are going to do the same thing this time, since they have n't been able to provide a correct fax or email address to either us or our insurance carrier. Because US Bank makes a substantial profit on the sale of this type of insurance, my belief is they intentionally change their fax numbers, ensuing insurance updates do n't come through, and charging homeowners for the extra insurance. I have spent over 5 hours in the past few days on the phone with them, just trying to get the correct contact infoation to give to our insurance provider, and each time I get a different email/fax, and each time it does n't work.
