Wells Fargo Lending Practices Show Jim Crow Is Still Alive And Well At Wells Fargo

Wells Fargo wants the public to believe Wells Fargo lending policies no longer discriminate against black people. Especially since the bank settled the plethora of Ghetto Loans lawsuits they faced.

Cities across the United States accused Wells Fargo of conning black people in urban areas into high-interest loans the bank knew they could not afford. Thus, setting black people in cities like Baltimore up to fail. 

Wells Fargo has spent the past five years trying to mask over this period of gross social injustice and exploitation. They try to do it the same way Munich tour guides mask over 1932-1945. They pretend it never happened.

Wells Fargo doesn’t just pretend their history doesn’t exist. They want to cover it up. They have become so desperate to hide it, they have resorted to catty behavior against companies like MFI-Miami who write about it. 

There is a reason why Wells Fargo wants to make things difficult for companies like MFI-Miami. It’s because we are on the frontlines battling lenders. We also have the lending experience to see what is going on. Additionally, MFI-Miami would also be the first to discover a pattern of unethical behavior in Wells Fargo lending practices. 

The lender also knows MFI-Miami will be the first to know if they are misleading the public. They also know we will be the first to expose it.

Wells Fargo Lending Policies Still Discriminate Against Minorities

The bank’s executives want everyone to believe Wells Fargo lending policies are no longer discriminatory. They have been able to fool the NAACP and federal regulators. However, I’m here to tell you, Jim Crow is alive and well at Wells Fargo.

Every week, stories emerge about Wells Fargo scamming or screwing non-Caucasians.

The discriminatory Wells Fargo lending policies are most noticeable when a homeowner tries to negotiate a loan modification during a foreclosure.

Wells Fargo has become known for their callous, “Fuck you! Pay me!” lending policies. That’s just with their white customers. Wells Fargo goes into full gangster mode with minority homeowners. 

Eventually, Wells Fargo will concede and give white homeowners a workable loan modification. MFI-Miami has found that isn’t the case with non-caucasian borrowers. 

MFI-Miami has found that Wells Fargo has no problem going balls to the wall to kick minorities out of their homes. They even do it with gusto.

Wells Fargo has no problem stonewalling and misleading the court. In some cases, Well Fargo will just say, “Oh, well. If you don’t like it, tell to a judge!”

MFI-Miami has investigated enough Wells Fargo loans and helped enough homeowners to know what is really going on. 

Minority Homeowners Have Options Fighting Discriminatory Wells Fargo Lending Policies
