Texas “HAMP” Class Action Against HSBC, WELLS FARGO

ELLERY G. PENNINGTON AND
LAURA M. PENNINGTON,
on behalf
of themselves and all others similarly
situated,

v.

HSBC BANK USA, NATIONAL
ASSOCIATION and WELLS FARGO
BANK, N.A
.,

Excerpt:

Plaintiffs bring this action against Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., its division Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, and HSBC Bank USA (collectively, “Defendants”) on behalf of Texas resident home equity loan borrowers who were offered loan modifications by Defendants after March 3, 2007.

<SNIP>

Defendants then railroaded borrowers into foreclosure by setting up so many roadblocks to modification that borrowers would finally cry uncle in the face of bureaucratic stonewalling, incompetence, misrepresentations, deception, and fraud. Meanwhile, borrowers subjected to Defendants’ misconduct would have interest charges running against them during the pendency of Defendants’ purported “review” of their loans. An already distressed loan situation became all but impossible to escape because of Defendants’ misconduct and deception. Borrowers’ interest arrearages for the months and years they got chewed up in Defendants’ maniacal mortgage meatgrinder made any loan modification prospect remote almost to the point of impossibility.

    If these folks only would have checked Publication 938 for 2007, they would have realized that this trust was non-existent and no longer had tax-exempt REMIC status. How then can one have agency or standing when one no longer operates as an entity for which it was designed?

    WHEN IS IT TIME FOR THE EXUTIVE BRANCH OF OUR GREAT COUNTRY TO STEP IN. THE LEGISTLATIVE BRANCH HAS FAILED!!! MISERABLY. the judicial branch is being bribed because they do not make enough money to pay fro their houses an do not want to foreclose , so they except bribes to stay afloat (ps remember that ohio judge who was going into foreclosure guess he didnT take bribes) SO THE JUDICIAL BRANCH HAS FAILED OUR DUE POCCESS. it is time for the exuctive branch to step up to the plate. every time i put my computer on in the morning or at night after work there is another lawsuit in another state against the same banks. obviously if we citizens ae going though exactly the same misconduct across state lines , whats that NASA saying. HOUSTON, we have problem. todasy it is the new class action against wells fargo bank. when will we have that foreclosure mortitorium so we can rest at night. and wait to see the outcome of this gigantic mess. all i know wells fargo and the rest of the banks should not be aloud to continue to conduct business.

    to Dave Krieger, what do you mean? 938 for 2007? Isn’t HSBC a division of Wells Fargo. I see complaints where Plaintiff is HSBC, 3476 Stateview Blvd, FT Mill SC and complaints whhere Plaintiff is Welss Fargo Bank, NA. with the same adddress exactly. Although it says HSBC as Trustee for Ace 2005 HE-5, is this the Trust no longer existing and HSBC just a front for Wells Fargo or Deutsche Bank?

    Wells Fargo & Co – Marine Midland – HSBC Bank USA – Republic Bank, HSBC & JP Morgan US Dollar Clearing Business After the acquisition of Republic National Bank in 1999, the head office of HSBC Bank USA moved from One HSBC Center in Buffalo to 452 Fifth Avenue, New York City, although the official headquarters are in Wilmington, Delaware. HSBC Direct is HSBC’s attempt to compete nationally with other Internet banks such as Citibank Direct, Emigrant Direct, GMAC Bank, ING Direct.

    In 2004 HSBC USA sold two New York state branches to City National Bank. HSBC did not have enough nearby branches to give it economies of scale. On July 31, 2011, First Niagara Financial Group, headquartered in Buffalo, announced that they had bought all of HSBC’s upstate New York branches for $1 billion

    The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation acquired a 51% shareholding in Marine Midland Bank of New York State, headquartered in Buffalo, New York in 1980 and extended to full ownership in 1987. The banks continued to operate under the Marine Midland name until 1998, when the branch offices were rebranded as HSBC Bank USA in line with the worldwide corporate identity of HSBC.

    In 1994, Marine Midland acquired Spectrum Home Mortgage, which operated in eight states. Then in 1995, Marine acquired United Northern Federal Savings Bank, with branches in Watertown and Lowville, New York.

    Marine Midland also acquired The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation’s six New York City retail branches, and the next year Hang Seng Bank’s two branches in New York City.

    That same year, Marine Midland acquired 11 branches from the East River Savings Bank in the New York Metropolitan area.

    Marine also acquired the US dollar clearing business of JPMorgan.

    At the same time, HSBC transferred two branches in the northwestern United States to HSBC Bank Canada. The next year, Marine completed its acquisition of First Federal Savings and Loan from Toronto-based CT Financial Services, for $620 million. First Federal Savings, headquartered in Rochester), had $7.2 billion in assets, 1,600 employees, 79 retail branches in New York State and 15 mortgage origination offices in nine states.

    HSBC Bank USA, National Association, the American subsidiary of UK-based HSBC Holdings plc, is a bank with its operational head office in New York City and its nominal head office in McLean, Virginia (as designated on its charter). HSBC Bank USA, N.A. is a national bank chartered under the National Bank Act, which means that it is regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), a part of the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
