Indy Mac Bank service was good
First I want to offer my sincere condolences for those who lost money at Indy Mac Bank. I too in the past (not w/ IndyMac) lost cash ($40,000) and it does suck. Just want to rely a positive experience regarding retrieving a cd from IndyMac bank. I never failed to get a rep on the phone even the Monday following the shutdown. All reps were professional, had info about my account, and helped me. I got my cd wired to me in 9 business days. They are processing HUGE amounts of requests they did well. I am not affiliated with this bank.

Almost made me loose my home!!!!
IndyMac Bank is the worst bank known to man!It all started on oct,2006.They we're to put my mother and my fiance on the mortgage and didn't.They just put my mom on it. Then they told him that he can refinance in a year with them.Wrong!We have tried they said they don't know why someone in their company would tell us that.We have our loan escrowed.That means nothing! They don't pay my taxes!I had to fight them to pay my taxes with the money that they have of mine for my taxes.Then they tried to tell me thats its my responsablilaty to send them the tax info so they can pay it.Nope i called my tax collectors they send it to IndyMac to pay their self.So i don't have to! They tried to argue that with me,saying that i need to send it! lol!!! The tax people were sending me delinquit info on my property and house.They were having a lein put on it.Once again IndyMac's fault!! Now i am two months behind on my mortgage.Because they told me not to pay till after July 2. So i can get a mortgage adjustment.Ha!! Now i am stuck for getting a mortgage with someone else. By the way their mail room has brainless workers in it!!!!! They never get their mail that you send to them.They also have broken fax machines because they never can get a fax.No matter how many times you send it , they never get it!! So the point is the screwed me for now!!!!

Re: IndyMac and Scottrade
I also have a CD with IndyMac through Scottrade. It came due 7/24/08, but I have not received my money. When I called my local Scottrade office, the mgr. told me it would take four to eight weeks to get my money. No other explanation. His only words of advice were that I should go on the Internet and read up on the situation. So...I'm reading...and I don't like what I see! Is this a scam of the highest order? What about the interest that is being lost here? Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get the money back quicker? anyone?

Indymac Bank refuses to wire out matured CD
These guys are liars. Each time I call, they put a different, i.e. longer, time frame on getting this wire done. They are very effective, however, in stonewalling all of the questions. The time spent on hold sets new records for being messed up. The so-called supervisor to whom I spoke was unaware that I was speaking of a wire. They use the word "flagged" to signify that the account has been earmarked for something - perhaps additional stonewalling. Must be the same crew that drove the bank into the ditch in the first place. These people are awful and need to be shown the door along with the top management.

CD Through Brokerage Acc not funded yet
I bougt a CD through my scottrade account and was due on Friday, but my broker called me and informed me that the fdic was not releasing the money until further notice. I am wondering why this is, and if it means that the fdic is in more trouble that they tell us. I have a hard time with this, I'm not made out of money, and it seemed like investing in a cd would be a pretty safe bet, but now I have to wait for answers. It seems that the government always acts when the damage is already done.

Indymac, difficult to contact, almost lost our home, still problematic
We have gone for over a year without a statement from Indymac. Have e-mailed, called, they hardly care to contact us. We continue to get answering machines. After making payment arrangements to get caught up when we were a couple months behind, they sent our check back saying it was not enough to cover payments. It was exactly what was requested. When my husband called, he was sent from one person to another, given different ammounts to pay. At one point, he was quoted over 8000.00!!! (our payments are only 464 a month) he said there was no way. The lady went through explaining all that was included and mentioned "court costs". He told her we had never been to court!! We ended up refusing to make payments until we got a statement. Next thing we new we were heading to court to avoid going into forclosure. They set us up with a preforclosure program where we had no choice but to try to pay over 1400$ a month to keep our home. Eventually we managed to get a mortgage modification and pay just over 600 a month for payments with everything they managed to tack on (we still don't know - and do not know where any funds went that we have sent them in the past year). We signed the modification in June, still had no statement so that we could send our payment. We sent it to the adress on the modification contract. A couple days ago I was glad to finally see a statement in the mail, the first one in over a year! I opened it up and what do ya know, it was another mess. our August payment is over $9000.00. I have been in so many circles with these people in the past year and haven't even told the half of it. Our story really sounds unbeleivable. At one point when someone set up a payment plan for us we were waiting for papers to be faxed, hadn't received them and called about them. We were told that "Calvin" didn't have the authority to set up the plan for us and now Dennis would be working with us. I have nuemerous copies of e-mails that Dennis never replied to, each of them asking....begging for statements. At one point when I did get him on the phone, he said to me "you never asked me for a statement" I am so glad I saved my e-mails!!! We are planning to submit a complaint with the Atty. Gen. and hopefully will get some satisfaction. I have never in my life delt with or heard of such incompetence.

Indymac Bank
Indymac's loan servicing is being done by a off shore company (india). India thru imaging does the posting of payment and the analysis of the escows. For some reason their computer system and the one in Kalamazoo, mi does not interface and causes much confusion. This is causing serious problems with borrows accounts. Borrowers monthy payments are not being posted causing late payment notices being sent out and escrow account not being analysised correctly. borrowed pleased keep a record of all of your tranactions (cancelled checks) you may need it one day. They do not know what they are doing. I know because I worked for Indymac until 7/18/08.

Constant Harrasment on loans 12 days late
With the economy we all are faced with this institution constantly has been hasseling me for a late payment, when they don't pay there debt on time. When refunding for escrow account overpayment they on 3 occasions sent the wrong amount, who does there record keeping? I like all of you fill the hands of the oil companies sliding into my pocket dailey for my commute to work, and even though I have called loan resolution, and customer service to inform them of the payments status the next day they call 3-4 times, I hate to see the economy hit the wall like this but enjoyed the news about them crashing.

Indymac Bank addendum to withdrawl without permission
I finally received a check reimbursing me for the wrongful with drawl that I spoke of earlier. But to further complain the check was not the correct amount, it did not include any of the over draw fees that I was told that it did, and it was not sent overnight. It was sent next day air. There is a difference. Overnight I believe you receive by 9:00 am the next day. I received this check at 5:37PM Thursday. To late for anything and the check will not clear my bank until next week. Yes I am ticked off.

Indymac Bank withdrew funds without my permission.
Indymac bank withdrew funds after they had canceled the with drawl, assuring me that it would be taken out of my bank account. This happened on Monday. After giving the proof that the bank honored their with drawl, the agreed to reimburse me the over $900 with drawl and pay any fees that I incurred. They also stated that they would overnight the check. This was Tuesday. Today is Thursday 4:41pm and I have still not received the check which won't clear my bank until next week even if I do get it yet today. Indymac has put me in a very bad bind with other causing me $132 in over draft fees, and keeping me at a negative balance, making it impossible have monies to pay other bills, having to borrow money to put gas in my tank to go to work and so worth.

IndyMac Bank Mortgage foreclosed on my home through lies!
IndyMac Mortgage purchased my loan from another company. After about a year into my "3 year -fixed" adjustable rate loan, my rate adjusted. 3 months later, it adjusted again. As I put the house on the market, I was told I had to pay $300 just to find out if they would accept a short sale and then it could take weeks to find out. My buyer was eager to purchase a home and refused to deal with IndyMac and their crazy terms therefore, I lost the sale and ultimately the home. Before walking away, I again received another notice from them saying my rate was to adjust again. To this day, I still cannot figure out how a 3 year fixed rate on an ARM can adjust 3 times in 1 year. Put me in for any law suits that come up...they are getting what they deserve from the Feds. Also, my home has now been vandalized as they have yet to secure it since the foreclosure. It's been 7 months already. Glad to see them loose in the end.

INDYMAC lied to me about FDIC insurance
When i open my second account at IMB i was told several times by bank employee that my CD and my joint account was both insured up 200k each. it's my opinion that bank managers and their personnel deliberately engaged in fraud. To my knowledge FDIC is not investigating this issue.. they could at least pull the tape of the conversation between the customer and bank personnel and verify what was said to whom. That would resolve many complaints. Fraud has and is being imposed upon the 10k consumers that were riped off by IMB. I've found that some FDIC examiners are not as knowledgeable they should be about what consumers can expect. i.e. future pay out, etc.

Mortgage loan, i was taken
The home loan given to me, by Indy Mac ripped my family. The truth and lending came, then the day of the signing, which i was against the wall to sign because of my commitments, was changed.Wow, it cost alot for the closing, and my rate is something i can not handle. Why do banks do this to people. It is all a game. They know what they are doing and us individuals who are struggling to pay our homes and have a life is being ripped by interest rates, closing cost. When is the goverment going to look at what was done here. When are we the people going to say enough is enough..Take the life out of hard working individuals..

Which is why I don't have money at Scottrade. I work there and see what happens every day I've also had the chance to see what kind of @$$hole the CEO, Roger Riney is.
My money and and hopefully my employment will be elsewhere soon. I've never been this ashamed of my employer in the many years within this industry.
Had Schumer and the FDIC kept their belatedly, bungling noses out of things, we'd have our money. No consolation but you're not alone.
