We closed on a new house just before Christmas. Since then we've received about 20 pieces of mail with the name of our bank, saying we have to respond to about "an important matter regarding your loan with <your_bank>".

We know enough to tell which pieces of mail are from our bank, but there is so much predatory advertising in the US.

Is it like this everywhere, or is this a US-specific thing? I sure feel for all the people who struggle to tell which mail is legitimate and which is not.

@ehmatthes It's US specific. We closed on our current house just over 4 years ago, and we barely even got mail from our actual bank. Everything was in-person, or an email with instructions that came directly from our mortgage broker (that we chose).
