Clik here to view.Florida’s new Senate President is speaking out against banks that hoard federal bailout money while simultaneously reducing customer’s HELOC lines.
A recent release from his office explains:
“…Mike Haridopolos today called for hearings in Tallassee to investigate claims that after banks received hundreds of billions in federal bailout money they squeezed consumers and fraudulently or arbitrarily reduced Home Equity Lines of Credit (HELOC) to improve their own bottom lines.
‘I have heard the stories of this happening across our state and our country, and the courts are filled with lawsuits,’ says Haridopolos (R-Merritt Island). ‘This needs to be investigated because if true it’s outrageous. The very banks that are bailed out with taxpayers’ money then stick it to homeowners?’
Haridopolos is calling for hearings in Florida and is also asking that Congress investigate the claims of wrongful HELOC suspensions.
