Prequalified for a mortgage and rate locked in at 2.87 % for a 5 year ARM. 
Bank of America has caused innumerable delays in loan processing ; lost documents, me resubmitting the same thing over and over, " just one more thing ''. 
Now two weeks before closing the say they wo n't approve me for the 5 year arm, just a 7 year arm at a XXXX percent, a 0.35 % rate increase. They say my income, which I have been honest about through the whole process, is suddenly too low, so they are making the payment higher. 
It is a racket. I want them to refund the mortgage appraisal fee which I paid RELYING UPON the original " truth in lending '' statement. 
What good is a " truth in lending '' statement or a rate lock if the bank can just ignore them at the final hour. It is extortion. I spent money on an appraisal based on their original disclosures and I want them to either honor their original rate lock or refund the money I outlaid, {$460.00}, because I was relying on them honoring their end of the agreement.
