Had lunch with a longtime friend last week and answered  a few re-fi paperwork questions she had.  She said Wells Fargo called her to offer a free re-fi with a lower than existing rate, in order to keep their long-time, valued customers.  Usually I would think that falls into the "If it seems too good to be true, it usually is!" category. 

It's actually legitimate.  Wowee!

I received a call that same day to offer me the same kind of deal.   (Of course I returned the call by dialing a phone number I know to be at Wells Fargo, just to be safe).  My friend and I both are apparently the kind of customer (one who pays their mortgage) that Wells Fargo would like to keep; rather than lose them to another lender.
