Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: IL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
I am trying to cancel my escrow account with my mortgage loan servicer OCWEN. All payments have remained current during the past 12 months. The underlying mortgage does not have a negative escrow balance or other outstanding delinquencies. There is not tax or insurance payment due within the next 45 days. There is no forced-placed insurance policy on the account and the underlying mortgage has not been modified within the last 12 months to include an escrow account. 

OCWEN is citing IL State Law 765 ILCS 910/5 ( Section five, paragraph 4905, Chapter 17 ). They state that this law requires that homeowners in the state of Illinois are required to maintain an escrow account until the LTV has been reduced to 65 % or lower. This law has no provisions on requirements of escrow accounts, in fact this law only states once a mortgage is reduced to 65 % of it's original balance the Mortgage Lender must notify borrower that their escrow account may be terminated or may elect to continue until a termination request is received or mortgage is paid in full, which ever occurs first. 

For your reference, this information was obtained from the following website : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX I have not been told that an escrow accounts is required according to an investor requirement or federal law/rule. They keep citing this IL state law that says they are allowed to hold my escrow dollar hostage until the LTV reaches 65 % LTV. I  would like for the CFPB to research this issue with OCWEN servicing to ensure they are interpreting this IL statue incorrectly and holding onto escrow monies longer than are allowed under federal/state rules or laws. If this is happening on my account there can be thousands of others in the state of IL where their escrow dollars are being held hostage by OCWEN and that is not right.

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: OH
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Closing on a mortgage

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX, I applied for a mortgage with Citizens Bank and provided them with all required information. I was promised an APR of XXXX, but three days prior to closing, while reviewing the revised disclosures, I noticed that the rate had increased to XXXX. I inquired and was told that because of a short sale on my history and due to it being a jumbo loan, that I my application was being approved as an " exception '' and that the rate was increasing as a result. 

They had all of the information about the size of the loan and the short sale at the beginning of the application process, so it seems terribly unscrupulous to change the rate so late in the process. Clearly a homeowner has no recourse 3 days prior to closing and Citizens Bank is taking advantage of this situation.

Complaint:
I have previously filed a complaint against this company approximately 2 months ago regarding a processing fee that I was not told about. The complaint was responded to by stating I would not have to pay this fee per transaction. This was true for about 2 payments. My payment as of XX/XX/XXXX was charged the fee again. When calling the company I was told they would have never made this statement to me about not charging the fee and I was told a manager would call me back. I called a second time hoping to speak with someone that would look into the file and once again a manager would call me back immediately. No one has called to resolve this issue.

I also contacted XXXX XXXX  to let them know what Navient had said and was to that XXXX Financial had filed IDR papers with Fed Loan. I asked for a copy of whatever was filed on my behalf because at this point I do not know what to believe.

Complaint:
I have returned to seek help with you Consumer Financial Protection Bureau because I have reviewed my credit report and I see that the credit bureaus continue to report inaccurate information in my report, and not only that, they have NEVER sent a response letter to me home. This makes me very sad since I have been working on my credit in order to buy my own house, I do my best to take care of my credit so that the bureaus do not take the time to investigate the information they report. Also, this month my credit score is lowered a lot and I don't see why, since I have no new debts, I have not applied for credit and I have not fallen behind with my payments. I want to know why my score has dropped. Thanks

Complaint:
Hello, my name is XXXX XXXX and about a year ago I bought a bedroom set furniture from this store called XXXX XXXX they basically are similar to a XXXX store but have other items in which you need to have a contract for. I am not fluent in english at all ( In fact my niece is writing this for me as she knows English and is also a XXXX graduate ) so what they explained to me and what I later found out was in the contract don't match up. They basically told me that I had a period of 90 days in which I could pay a lower amount ( {$1200.00} ) for the furniture and it would be mine, if the 90 days passed I had to pay a higher price ( {$2500.00} ) making a payment of about {$47.00} dollars per week. I made an initial " downpayment '' of {$1100.00} which meant I had only {$150.00} left to pay then for the next four weeks ( clearly less that 90 days ) I made payment of {$48.00} dollars which even left me with a surplus of money of about {$40.00} but I didn't mind because that meant the furniture was mine and I no longer had to pay. However they kept making me pay claiming taxes and interest. I honestly did not count the payment and once added up, up until now I've paid {$2500.00} which exceed the original payment and also should not be with interest as it has not been a year ( they told me interest build-up after a year ). I also last month got a letter from acima, a debt collector, that told me I owed about the same amount of money and that I never made an initial downpayment. They contract also keep contradicting itself in many parts and is not accurate to what I was told. They made me sign the contract and 'translating '' the document to me, but I didn't know I was signing a contract for debt collection and money stealing so they scammed me out of my money. I don't wan na continue paying for something I've payed more than enough money for and when I made contact with XXXX XXXXl they told me it was not their problem and I should deal with acima which makes no sense as I was never informed of this. I spoke with acima and they told me to ask XXXX XXXX  about this debt because they have to collect it. It makes no sense and XXXX XXXX  tells me the only other way to solve the money issue is for me to return the furniture as it was like-a-lease which again they never told me it was that. Basically both companies have me going form one to the other without providing me a clear answer. This is no fair and I don't wan na seek legal help as I can't afford it. I honestly just want to not have to pay any of these companies anything, they can keep the money they've stolen.

Company: SELECT PORTFOLIO SERVICING, INC.
State: NV
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
I submitted a complaint with the CFPB on XX/XX/XXXX, concerning my mortgage servicer, XXXX XXXX ( now " XXXX XXXX '' ). I had many concerns about the company, and had still never seen any paperwork about my loan, other than the original documentation from XX/XX/XXXX, when I originated the loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX. Within two weeks of filing the complaint, I was informed that XXXX XXXX had sold my loan to XXXX XXXX. They apparently took over the account in mid XX/XX/XXXX, but it is now past XX/XX/XXXX, and I have yet to receive any correspondence from XXXX XXXX. I do not know the terms of the loan, or the amount of my monthly payment. Beside the fact that XXXX XXXX is the target of multiple on-line complaints, my main concern remains the same. Why ca n't anyone provide any type of documentation about my mortgage. Yes, I took a loan from XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. But now, after 16 years and 4 mortgage companies, I seem to owe as much as I borrowed, and the only loan documentation is the original one from 16 years ago. I hope you can help. 
Thank you. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
I had a membership at XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX XXXX. After an initiation fee I had a monthly payment of around {$10.00} per month. I left XXXX  in XXXX and returned to my home in XXXX. I let the club know that I was leaving and I paid auto payments by credit card for XXXX and XXXX even though I was no longer in XXXX  and no longer using the fitness facility as I left XXXX  near the end of XXXX.

They also refer to themselves as XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. 

I believe not only that I shouldn't have to pay, but that I should get a refund for the months they collected payments for after I left the state. I really don't want to try to collect {$20.00} from them, but I strongly object to paying {$150.00} for services I didn't use.
