Two FDIC complaints and now a small claims court suit to get my money back. USAA kept drafting, and Arvest simply refused to stop it. When they sold some branches to FNBC, I happened to call them, and they started an investigation. Arvest credited the first and last payment but left out the year in the middle. When I filed the first FDIC complaint, they returned an $89 charge but still tried to ignore the USAA issues. So, I filed again and confronted them. They gave the same excuse they did when I originally complained, saying I waited too late, which was untrue as I had been complaining from the beginning. So now, it's on to small claims court. This institution used to be good, but it's owned by the Waltons now and has become predatory. The branches that FNBC bought were a joy to work with while they were within the system, but Arvest suppressed them. It seems it's time to move on.

Worst Bank Ever Experienced - the mortgage department is a complete nightmare to deal with. I contacted them one year (YEAR!) ago to start a “simple” mortgage assumption application. I pre-reviewed their requirements and the exact step-by-step process. After months of a complete runaround, I realized now they flat out lied about the process and requirements.

In the beginning of this process and after I fully disclosed my info, they proceeded to tell me to start the application process and it that it “wouldn’t be a problem”. I sent them 25 financial docs, which mind you, they weren’t able to provide a secure platform for (first major red flag!) and I’m certain isn’t allowed under FDIC requirements. I wasted days/time preparing and emailing docs/statements, only for them to go radio silent because they kept “losing” my docs or claimed they didn’t get certain docs… Weeks and months went by with them needing me to resend the same docs via email over and over and for what - nothing - they literally just stopped cold and never followed up.

WORST banking experience. This is my 7th home loan, I’ve never been late or not have a bank approve me - Arvest is a nightmare and I’m basically stuck now. I can’t imagine how they treat people who have real financial troubles. If your bank sells your mortgage loan to them - RUN - Refi and pay whatever necessary to get out and get away from them. They aren’t capable of completing basic financial due diligence or even managing the application process securely and likely are mishandling sensitive financial documents. Given I’ve sent my financials to them without any communication I’m worried my financial identity is at risk. I’m sorry I trusted their word/initial process and didn’t realize what a nightmare this “simple” application would turn into.

My late husband had a home mortgage with Arvest Bank and after submitting the proper court documents I still could not receive the necessary information from customer service to continue with my loan payments. This company was a nightmare to work with and I strongly do not recommend them. They lied and said they could not pull up the account since my husband passed away, they would not provide me with end of year information for tax purposes. I had to eventually just pay them off in order to keep my property and remain stress free.

I went through Guaranteed Rate to obtain my mortgage in 2015. They in turn sold my mortgage to Arvest Central Mortgage and it became an utter nightmare! I the decade I was with Wells Fargo I had no issues. But Arvest unilaterally destroyed my credit. Late fees for payments they didn't apply on time, they repeatedly paid my taxes AND insurance late (one year it was even canceled!) ... and the final straw was when I went into forbearance due to COVID, at which point they said they would cover the escrow. When my taxes were due, they paid it AFTER the due date, which was AFTER I came out of forbearance! When they sold my mortgage to some Mickey Mouse company (Mr. Cooper - ?!?!), my escrow balance was then SHORT because they paid it late and this increased my mortgage payment by over $150 a month! RUN From them ... as fast as you can! I can't even apply for a refinance because they messed up my mortgage history so much!

In the midst of loan modification they lied about postponing the auction. My single point of contact person wasn’t available yesterday and today is a holiday. Cruel to do this I’ve had the $ to pay my monthly mortgage and then in a 3 day window they claim I’m missing a paper come to find out.

I am having such a problem with this mortgage company. I did not choose them, I was with Cenlar for 6 years and Arvest took over my mortgage last year. I changed insurance companies this year, Reducing my annual fee by over $1200. Everything else has stayed pretty constant, my mortgage, the interest on that, my taxes etc. Now, one might expect my monthly payment to drop $100 a month or so following that, or at least remain constant. No, it was increased in September by $800 a month (25% increase). I did get a call from somebody at Arvest a few weeks ago, who didn’t seem to understand the first thing about mortgages or Escrow. I have just written to them again, explaining that they will have about $18,000 over to pay a $9,000 insurance premium at this rate. I’m not convinced they shall be capable of understanding it. Not sure what to do next. I shall of course swap mortgage companies as soon as I can.

I have had the worst experience with trying to refinance my home with Arvest. I went to them since my current mortgage is with them, I thought it would be easier. Boy was I wrong. Terrible communication. Whenever I emailed them, they didn't answer until I called. I lost my job in 2020 due to Covid, and I started collecting my social security, and also got a part time job. They told me they couldn't use my part time income, because I didn't work there for 2 years. When they ask for your income, it's the gross amount that they are looking for.

My social security is net figure, but they said that they could not gross it up since I just started collecting in 2021, and can't show it on my tax return yet. After 53 days, they denied my application due to insufficient income. I then went and applied to RocketMortgage, with the same low rate. RocketMortage approved my refinance in 23 days because they grossed up my social security, and used my part time income.

They charge fees without obtaining or having any contractual language within your loan documents regarding such fees or proof of you calling their payoff line. One example is fax fees of $15.00. I have 5 priority letters sent to Arvest Central Mortgage since 8/7/2020 regarding these fraudulent fees in which they have not provided any contractual language covering such fax fees. During the closing of my loan they billed me a release fee. They conveyed this was a fee charged by my county. I requested a receipt from the county as the fee was listed as an estimate.

Arvest in writing instructed me to perform the labor of contacting the county to get a receipt myself if I wanted one. I informed Arvest of the labor fee and performed the scope of work of getting my own receipt on Arvest behalf. The county document stated that Arvest had overcharged me in the estimate and had not returned the money after the closing on 12/4/2020. I had to write another priority mail letter to Arvest on 1/20/2021 requesting the overcharge be returned. They have refused to refund the overcharge, fraudulent fax fees, nor pay any of my labor for performing work on their behalf.

This company is very well deserve their 1.5 star reviews all over the web. Slow, lazy, unprofessional. I bank ACH'ed them my mortgage pay off amount 10 calendar days ago, they still didn't apply the funds towards the pay off nor returned them back to me, keeping them as unapplied funds and that's it, giving me stories about wait until the end of today or wait until the end of the day tomorrow. These guys are thieves and these are the people who handles your money, stay away. Don't ever go with this lender.
