Based on hearsay and Tom Martino's "troubleshooter" radio show, Washington Mutual is one of the worst companies to do business with.
Common complaints have included getting late charges because "they did not receive your payment" on time.</font>
You should be so lucky as to just have them claim you are late. I know a guy who claims he didn't pay. He spent months trying to get them to look at the canceled checks that they had cashed showing his payments. Eventually they became rude and threatening and finally started forclosure proceedings against him. Ruined his credit rating and he couldn't even borrow the money to pay them off so that he could escape their evil clutches. Finally had to hire an attorney and sue them. Now they want more time and don't want him to proceed with the lawsuit. Gosh, where was the cooperation when he was trying to show them the canceled checks?
Just one of many stories I've heard about poor treatment at their hands.
They could offer me a million airmiles and I wouldn't do business with them. It's just not worth the hassle to have your credit ruined and have to fight with them.
How does one get hold of Tom Martino? I'm sure he would love to hear this guys story.
