How Swarm the Banks works.

Update - November 24, 2010 - With the growth of this website I am hoping that sharing important foreclosure information and ideas will help educate interested homeowners as to the kind of legal activities they can take in regards to their HAMP and Parallel Foreclosure experience.

Update - September 30, 2010 - due to "people power considerations" the idea of swarming the banks via phone calls is being given out freely to anyone who wants to try it in their own city.)

Please note, I am no longer advocating calling the banks en masse as the issue of home foreclosures is now in the mainstream. The information below is simply historical as to why Swarm the Banks was first started, but no longer reflects the direction that Swarm the Banks is now headed.

First view the blog column to your far left and your far right where it says "Shame the Banks". They are both filled with Shame the Banks story links from home owners who feel they are not being treated fairly by their banks.

The banks will be given a certain amount of time to respond to the homeowners letters. If the bank or financial institution does not respond within a certain amount of time, Swarm the Banks volunteers will be asked to call the particular bank or loan institution in question and ask what is going on with the specific loan case.

The phone swarming will continue until the banks figure out a reasonable solution.

Yes, it's that easy. You can start your own phone bank in your own city if you want to try and help your fellow home foreclosure victims.

Welcome to Swarm the Banks.

I believe if we can assemble enough of a phone posse to start calling uncooperative banks and financial institutions who are not fairly handling homeowners situations, we can make a difference.

Stay tuned for more information. Just as important, please check out "Shame the Banks". If you are a homeowner with a story to tell, Shame the Banks is gathering stories about homeowners plights.

Eventually, I envision an evaluation of everybody's stories and whomever is in an outrageous situation will receive support from others who will call the financial institution to find out what is going on.

If enough people keep the phone pressure up, we can get the banks attention and get them to deal with us irrespective of their lobbying efforts in Congress.

Finally, you may be able to do something from your own home or apartment, to help others who are fighting to keep theirs.
