I had them for 5 years - never had a problem, not once.
Of course - i was never late with my payments either.

I've heard that they get pissy even if you are on time with the payment.

Interesting - why even have a conversation if you are on time? just becuase they like to waste money paying employees to call and hassle you?

To try and get an additional non-principal payment out of you would be my guess. Since there is no other reason to do it besides douchebaggery.

I never make late payments, and they don't bother me, but I'm pretty concerned about the general availability of their systems.

That doesn't even make sense - unless you're claiming they are trying to scam you into paying them for nothing?
While I suppose they can call and ask for free money - but it's up to you to not be scammed.
First I've heard of this reasoning from Well's Fargo.
harassing because you're late - they have every right to do that.

LOL - well, after that last situation, who can blame you? Though frankly - I'd be surprised if nearly every institution couldn't suffer a similar situation. Bank or no Bank, fed regulations or no..

The only problems I've had with them is that their account people have no idea how to calculate what to take out for escrow. Every year they send me a check because they take too much. I've tried calling and going over the numbers with them, and they just don't get it. I'm half tempted to just say screw the escrow altogether if they'll let me. Referring to the stupid letter at the end of the year saying "you have these choices for your escrow payment... if you do nothing your payment will automatically raise to this amount"
Now that I type this it totally seems like a scam, given Wells Fargo's reputation. Take way more escrow from every single customer and profit on the interest. Bastards.

That sounds like a hot mess alright.
SunTrust has done good with mine. They screwed up in year one. Corrected in year 2 and year 3 seems solid now.

I almost always owe these days... It's been 5 years since Wells Fargo, so I don't recall with them.

I cancelled my ESCROW account as of last year for a couple reasons. I'm one who shops around home/auto insurance annually and every time I switch home insurance it's a nightmare. As you say, the amount they deduct is always off, and usually on the high side (although this makes sense on their end to ensure that always have sufficient funds). Plus it puts me in control to hold my money and earn interest on it and pay my property taxes in the most tax efficient way for me.

I got a check back my first year, ever since then they keep predicting escrow shortages, so my payment ends up going up like $25 or so each year. But they have been reasonably close, as my property taxes keep rising.

Yeah, same here. Mine tends to be over, but just a tiny bit. I prefer the peace of mind.

MoviePass owner delisted from Nasdaq
Helios & Matheson Analytics, the parent company of movie-subscription service MoviePass, was delisted from the Nasdaq exchange on Tuesday. The company's shares had been trading for less than $1 since July, a violation of the exchange's standards. Helios has struggled to build a sustainable business model for MoviePass, which has incurred losses after it began charging $9.95 for unlimited access to theatrical releases. To cover the losses, Helios issued billions of new shares, prompting a massive decline in share value, Business Insider reports.
