Wells Fargo Review Summary

Some banks have become American institutions, and Wells Fargo certainly ranks among them, with a familiar name and a long history in the business. Wells Fargo offers mortgage loans among its many services and reviewers of Wells Fargo mortgages consider its focus on the customer and competitive rates two strong points. “Wells Fargo Bank is Designed to Satisfy its Customers”, says one reviewer and some others feel the same. But other reviewers do not like Wells Fargo because they feel the fees are high and there are too many hidden charges for mortgage loan applicants. Wells Fargo “Refused to Give Back Money Taken in Error From my Bank Account” and has committed many acts considered unethical. It all leads to a mixed reputation among Mortgage Lenders, and these facts should be considered carefully before loan processing begins.

    When I started looking for a house 3 years ago I went through the normal procedure of trying to get a lender before I looked for a house. At least I call it normal as I figure you need to know what you can afford before you look at house. My sister in law is an appraiser in… read full review »

STAY AWAY FROM WELLS FARGO HOME MORTGAGE.  A VERY BAD COMPANY TO GET A MORTGAGE WITH. My husband and I have refinanced our home to get rid of Wells Fargo Home Mortgage.  They went into our bank account to get their money, and took it out on the wrong day of the… read full review »

I hear the other complaints in this section.  I have had countless problems with the Wells Fargo Bank and their employees. — We had our accounts there for quite some time, but we had grown tired of the fees and difficulties with Wells Fargo and had decided to close out our accounts and change to WaMu instead.  Our kids college accounts were at Wells Fargo, when we went to close them out they contained a bit of money.  Wells Fargo wanted to charge us a percentage of the money to keep for their loss.  Have you ever heard of anythng so ridiculous?  We ended up… read full review »

I have had the opportunity to bank with many financial institutions over the last 35 years, and the only financial institution that I liked very much was Wells Fargo Bank.  They were friendly, professional and always seemed to have their customers best interest at hand.  I never walked out of a Wells Fargo branch and felt like I was nothing more tha just another bank account number. — I would recommend Wells Fargo Bank to anyone! —… read full review »

We tried getting a loan from them and they gave us the run around. We are not the only ones. They let you think that you qualify for a loan and then keep turning you down for on reason or another but still say they can get the loan for you. At the end, they tell you you can't have it. I know several people that they have done this… read full review »

If you like paying excessive fees at the end of your auto lease and charged for "bug damage" — for a car you leased and took great care of even when the car was turned in in perfect condition and under allowed miles , then Wells Fargo is for… read full review »
