This is the real power of voice of AR! This is not just a BLOGGING platform, it's lot more than that.

I am sure we will hear a good news from Gail very very soon.

In the mean time, here's a re-blog of Gail's second post thanking AR members.

 

Original content by Gail Robinson RES.0772823

 

I am astounded by how fast the AR community came to the aid of myself and my husband between last evening and today to get BOA's attention on our dire situation with my loan modification rejection and threat to send a foreclosure summons while my husband is getting palliative care in our home for Stage IV pancreatic cancer.  

As of 5:30 PM on 2/9/13 there have been 134 reblogs, 568 Facebook Likes, and 449 short URL clicks, which are most likely Tweets.  I have no way of knowing how many Google Plus shares there were.  I called AR's resident blogging guru, Debbie Gartner, to ask her how to find out how many reblogs my post had and she told me to click on the little green dots at the top of the post under the Reblog button.  I did that and a list dropped down of everyone who reblogged my post.  I wanted to share this with those of you who didn't know how to do this.

Now these statistics are just people who came to the original post. I don't think they reflect the friends of AR bloggers who reTweeted or Liked their friend's FB post.  We also have no idea how many there are on Google Plus (unless someone can tell me a way to look that up).  The point is that this is like throwing a pebble into a pond and the impact becomes larger as friends of friends of friends reblog.  Of course, at a certain point someone is likely to say who the heck is this person and why should I care and the ripple effect stops, but then again, some things go viral on the Internet.  However, one thing we know is that BOA sat up and took notice as I got two calls from them today and they are going to send my case to the Escalation Team.

How can I thank all of you?  I really appreciate what you have done from the bottom of my heart!  This is certainly AR in action and shows how much of a true community we are.  We may not be able to reach out and touch each other physically, but we certainly do touch one anothers hearts.  

I will post updates on my progress with the loan modification.  You deserve to know what is happening and I'll keep you informed.  Thank you again to my AR family!

Thanks Praful, hopefully BOA will really follow through in reforming their pactices in this and other cases, but I fear that if may be just a few words from their media experts to get people to forget about this case,

But as long as we keep following up with more and more blogs about this hopefully they will reform.

Sadly, this incident involving Bank of America is not the first, nor I suspect will it be the last, we've heard.

This is not just one event.  It's an example of a practice, a philosophy, a pattern of behavior evidenced over and over.
