When your Line of Credit Freezes... What you do?

When the Bank Freezes
Your Line of Credit

Lenders are freezing existing home-equity lines of credit (HELOCs) to protect themselves from losses from subprime mortgages and other high-risk loans. In some cases the credit line reduces significantly in other cases are simply frozen.

When the updated market value of your property falls the equity can be either lowered to the new value or in case of negative equity, just disappear all together.  

The action taken by numerous Banks is been the source of much outrage and confusion. There are citizens that were already gotten the home-equity lines of credit frozen or reduced to the new market value of their property.

I witnessed a sad episode at the Bank few days ago, when an older lady hyperventilating, was arguing her case with the bank teller... The Manager was called in and we all witnessed the conversation between the bank representative and that poor women. 

Simply put: Without a prior notification she found out that her "home-equity lines of credit" was drastically reduced... Now, it is not only a terrible blow that old lady got but, as she was venting in front of all of us, was impacting her life. Not easy for an old citizen who worked hard, paid her mortgage on time and played by the rules. 

ALSO because there was no notice given she had written small checks which all have been declined to be paid. By not giving notice of the cancellation of the line, her credit has been endangered by a creditor. On top of the she is retired with a heart condition, living frugally and conservatively. OUTRAGEOUS! Where is the government? Doesn't the government realize that by endangering the credit of good citizens, pertetrated by US BANKS in trouble they endanger the economic stability of the country from the bottom up?

More and more older people are using ways to supplement their living expenses using credit line or credit cards. It's a fact! More Americans using credit cards to stay afloat.

Across the U.S., sellers with good credit who have never been late on a mortgage payment are getting their home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) frozen or downgraded. Major lenders like Bank of America, Citibank, Countrywide Financial Corp., Washington Mutual Bank and USAA have announced that they're cutting back HELOCs in areas where home prices have taken a hit..

    Are you popular on ActiveRain?...

      

    ... Where everybody knows your name... 

    What makes you popular in real life? Some have that special gift to attract attention, create good report with it's peers and few even becoming well known in the community. 

    It is a gift or it is a craft?

    For some comes easy and natural as they are blest with god given poise, sense of humor and zest for life. Those are the ones that glow in any circumstances of life... It's easy! 

    For others is a long struggle with breaking those barriers that keeps them on the other side of the spectrum, It is something wrong with them?

    Of-course NOT.

    When popularity rate is low, in any community including ActiveRain, the way to overcome it is to work your craft, learn from others and do the best.  

    The general wisdom will tell us that in the blooging world what sets us apart from others is the emotional, provocative reaction we generate among the readers. Subjects and areas of your expertise that will work as a magnet to attract readers therefore the popularity of your blog.

    I've been asking myself many times how some post get Featured on ActiveRain Homepage? Who selects the best material written for the :

    Professional | Consumer | All | Subscribed
    Order: Most Recent | Most Active | Last Comment
    Time: Today | This Week | This Month | All Time
     

    I cam across fantastic posts with very good content, writing skill (on all the category above mentioned), and I may add with lots of comments... that never appears anywhere on ActiveRain popular Featured posts.

    It's ActiveRain a popularity contest or there are rules well in place that we all should know about. As for one I would like to hear an explanation.

    Does anyone here knows how is this done?

    Show Me the Money...

    How many of you are really excited to receive your economic stimulus check?...

    Not that I was expecting to much for my economic stimulus check, but for many other people across the country it was well anticipated - specially for large families with children.

    As far as the financial relief people will get from it ... is an other story! But is always good to get some instead of none! Anyway,

    Stimulus payments just started going out last week, but the IRS has already heard from millions of Americans looking for their money.

    You may not be scheduled to get yours just yet. So the IRS wants taxpayers to check the schedule below or you can call the rebate hotline at 866-234-2942. But remember, if you filed late, you'll have to wait longer for your rebate.

    Additional information about rebates:   http://www.irs.gov/  

    And while most taxpayers can expect a rebate between $300 and $1,200, if you owe back taxes or have an unpaid student loan, you could get less. If that's the case, the IRS will send you a written explanation.

    Assuming your tax return is filed and processed by April 15, this is schedule for when you can expect your economic stimulus rebate.

    economic stimulus rebate schedule

    If your tax return is filed after the April 15 deadline, your rebate checks may be delayed until approximately two weeks after you receive your refund (if you receive a refund). Since it normally takes the IRS about 2 weeks to process most tax returns, it should take about a month to receive your rebate check.

    100th anniversary of Mother's Day... Tribute to a mother!

    I don't know how many knows about the roots of Mother's Day Celebration but I found it very inspirational, as is all about the love of a daughter for her mother. It is a testimony of love that will stay with us for ever. Thank you Anna!

    Anna Jarvis, established the first internationally celebrated holiday - Mothers Day - in her honor, using the anniversary of her mother's death. The first official Mother's Day was held on May 10, 1908 (three years after her mother Anna Marie Reeves Jarvis died) with ceremonies in Philadelphia and in the Jarvis's hometown of Grafton, W. Va.

    It was in 1905 when Anna Jarvis, who was never married and never had children, got the Mother's Day idea from her mother... Anna would want us to give mothers a white carnation - she felt it signified the purity of a mother's love... her mother said it would be nice if someone created a memorial to mothers.

    After her mother died in 1905, she organized the first official mother's day service at a church where her mother had spent more than 20 years teaching Sunday school.

    Today, the former Andrews Methodist Episcopal Church is the official shrine to mothers around the world. On Sunday, the shrine will celebrate the 100th anniversary, giving each mother attending a special service a white carnation.

    It is important to note that though Miss Anna Jarvis devoted her life for the establishment of national Mothers Day but in the end she was disappointed at the way thing turned out. She was concerned with reform, not revenue. She hated the commercialisation of the day, so much so that she felt sorry for ever starting the tradition of celebrating Mothers Day.
