Complaint Review: Fifth Third Bank

Received a Skip a Payment Form from Fifth Third Bank (which we have done before) for the month of August 2005. We signed this form and mailed it in. Two months later we received a letter stating the August payment was never made. Called Fifth Third Bank and they refused to deal with us because it was sent to a collection agency.

Never received any notice from the bank that the skip a payment was not accepted never missed a payment before and they immediatly sent it to collections. I think Fifth Third Bank does this so they can tack on late fees.

I am taking out a home equity loan to pay off this car loan so I will never have to deal with these crooks again!
