  My wife and I agave been members of this bank many years. We have bought several cars and paid them off and was never late. Our mortgage is through this bank and we have about 9 years left on it. Recently we have been dealing with Covid-19 related issues and a grandson who had an emergency brain bleed. We have always paid more than our payment. Apparently our escrow rose and because all we were going through we failed to notice it. For $5.83 the bank sent in a late notice to our credit report. We have overdraft protection but that didn’t matter. After speaking to Amy in the loan department I was told it would be removed but this morning they called my wife and said it wouldn’t. They advertise to come home to their family bank, but apparently that is just an add. They don’t care about family only their books. They could have sent us an email or called us. I know our credit union stated that they would have reached out to see if everything was okay. We will move our mortgage there and close our accounts here. Shame on all of you

  Response from the owner

  Dear Mr. Young, We are very sorry to hear what your family has been going through during this difficult time. As we discussed after researching this matter in detail, we are not able to reverse the situation due to credit reporting regulations. Unfortunately, as much as we would like to help, this is beyond our control. We truly do appreciate your years of dedicated service to Sterling Federal Bank. If there is any other way we can assist you, please feel free to contact us.
