    Summary: We refinanced to pay off our home loan in half the time and, in the end, because of GMAC's disturbing and unprincipled behavior, we actually went to a lot of trouble to change from GMAC (our former mortgage-holder) to a different company.  GMAC sold ... read more

  • Poor Customer Service
