Also, go to a branch and have the branch manager call the mortgage side. Sometimes, they know someone there.
If you are looking for a new mortgage, use a licensed mortgage broker, not a bank. Brokers are now the most checked out loan originators on the planet and can shop multiple lenders to get the best deal.

Good luck, all!
