Bank reposses wrong house and destroys persons belongings
Quote:
All hail the almighty bank, that which never has and never will do any wrong! Here's hoping she can sue the bank over this, get her restitution. And here's hoping that the police actually get of their asses and press charges against the people who broke into her house and stole her belongings, as well as the bank employee's that gave the order to do so. |
Big government and banks. We will probably see more of this in the future.

Sending a man out to a house to take her things, if you do this, even by using GPS, shouldn't that man have proper information? Instead of saying "Yo, Barty! That one house on that one road needs to be foreclosed! Go do it!" And telling the guy to use his GPS to get there, at least confirm and everything before you wreck the place and change the locks!
What insanity. |
There's never a dull moment in this world.
The bank absolutely should replace all her stuff, right down to every spoon. They were complete idiots and made a humongous mistake, and then acted like total jerks about it when she tried to get compensation? They shouldn't even be allowed to be a bank. |
She should get restitution but I don't have a whole lot of hope for this.
Many banks have admited to falsifying morgage records and not only did they got off practically scottfree, they still managed to use these false records to screw people out of their houses. I don't see much happening to this bank - At this point people expect a bank to be completely full of ****, and at this point not enough people care enough to force them to change. |
This is why I personally only use GPS to get me in the general area of something. Nothing beats checking the actual house number on the house itself to find out if it's the right place.
Sweet mercy some people have too much faith in GPS technology these days. It's still somewhat inaccurate. That bank should definitely refund her all $18,000 worth of stuff. |
I don't really like topics like this to be honest. By which I mean there's not much if anything to even argue about. It's blatantly obvious that she should get her stuff back, based on the provided information so I don't even see the point in discussing this any further.

Are banks bad for people? Are they a necessary evil? Are they a positive force in society? Should banks be allowed to foreclose on people's houses, kick them out and take their stuff, in the first place? Do people have a right to shelter (like we have a right to life or free speech)? |

Why would they not bother to look at the house number on the front of the house? O__o

The bank also apparently believes they're above the law. Frankly, they should be charged with robbery, and breaking and entering, among any other related charges for damages and the like — it was the wrong house, and it's not even a house they legally could have foreclosed on in the first place! |
Banks and big corporations always believe they are above the law because they're massive businesses that most people and politicians do not want to deal with. In many cases, they actually ARE above the law; not legally, but they're so powerful that they might as well be.

Bank issued a statement on this. Essentially, they aren't going to pay her back because she doesn't have reciepts that show proof of ownership or the value of them. They are, of course, ignoring the fact that they pretty much stripped her house bare and that whatever reciepts she did have, they made sure to destroy.
But it's not ALL bad news. The bank is trying to make up for their mistake. They've offered to replace her bowflex ultimate home gym... With one that they found laying by the road. http://www.10tv.com/content/stories/2013/07/26/wellston-bank-issues-statement-about-home-it-wrongfully-foreclosed-upon-balks-at-paying-up.html |
