Consumer complaint received 2016-12-01
Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: MA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Other mortgage
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint:
Please help me to stop a foreclosure that is scheduled for XXXX XXXX. It would be unnecessary and unfair to foreclose while I am still waiting for a response to my appeal of Ocwen 's wrongful denial of my modification request. All I want is a chance to make a reasonable payment. 

I applied for a modification and sent in all the information that Ocwen asked for. Then I was wrongly denied based on Ocwen 's error. 

In a " non-approval notice '' letter dated XXXX XXXX, 2016 ( attached ) Ocwen said I was denied for a modification because my income was too low. The notice says that Ocwen verified my gross income as {$XXXX}. That is completely wrong. 

I had given Ocwen all the papers they asked for to document monthly income of {$XXXX} from retirement income as a retired XXXX XXXX XXXX employee, plus monthly income of {$XXXX} from Social Security ( {$XXXX} per month before deduction for medical insurance premiums ), plus monthly rental income of {$XXXX}. Even if they only count part of the rental income, that is still far more than the {$XXXX} they mentioned. 

So I sent Ocwen a letter dated XXXX XXXX, 2016 ( attached ) appealing the denial and explaining that they had made a mistake calculating my income. 

Ocwen confirmed they received my appeal, and in a letter dated XXXX XXXX, 2016 ( attached ) they said they would send me a written response. 

Since then, my niece has called Ocwen to check if anything more is needed. My niece has been authorized to talk to Ocwen for me since I am XXXX and it is also hard for me to communicate in XXXX. Ocwen has told my niece again and again that no more papers are needed for my appeal. They even told her the file was in the " under writing '' department. 

But we never got an answer or any update about the appeal. Instead, Ocwen scheduled a foreclosure sale for XXXX XXXX, 2016 ( letter attached ). 

Please have Ocwen postpone the foreclosure sale so there is time to give a fair consideration of my application and the appeal.

Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are handled

Complaint:
I went to school at a school that has since closed. It went by many names ... ..XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ... ..to name a few. Anyway, I went to school XX/XX/XXXX and had a loan through Navient and have been paying them since then. They have threatened me with garnishments, made harassing calls to me, and forced me to set up payment plans. I recently went on a .gov website for some help because as often as the companies change, I can not keep track of who i 'm paying and how much or how long i 've been paying each company. Anyway, the .gov site chat sent me to NSLDS.ed.gov where I could see my loan history and there I found that Navient was paid off thru a consolidation loan XX/XX/XXXX! But they 're STILL TAKING MY MONEY, every month, right out of my bank account. I have requested my transcripts so I can try to get loan forgiveness since the school I went to just suddenly boarded up one day. I am also looking into Public Service Loan forgiveness, since I have worked in the XXXX since XX/XX/XXXX. But in the mean time, Navient has taken my money, for 11 years without me owing them ANYTHING. I have attempted numerous times to call them via their XXXX and local numbers and can never get a live person.

Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
It has been a nightmare dealing with Ocwen Loan Servicing for over 8 years for a possible loan modification. Ocwen Loan Servicing has denied my request for a loan modification incorrectly over 35 times by providing the deceptive response indicating that there is a problem with the title to the property that has nothing to do with the owner to the property but Ocwen Loan Servicing lien against the property that is considered to be invalid and void. Moreover ; Ocwen collected over {$80000.00} as a monthly Trial Period with the promise of finalizing a predominate loan modification and this is while the property was in an active foreclosure. Which is considered to be unlawful. 
There have been several correspondences from the Ocwen Loan Servicing attorney confirming the issue with the invalid lien. On  XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX the attorney representing Ocwen Loan Servicing in an email correspondence to my attorney indicated : The modification offered to XXXX XXXX is contingent on clear title to the property. Upon investigating the title report, we discovered that there is a {$290000.00} outstanding lien on this property from XX/XX/XXXX that was never released. I have attached a copy of the deed of trust evidencing this lien. The implementation of the modification is being held up due to this cloud on title, but we are working with the title company to try and resolve this matter. To be clear, the modification has not been declined but is instead pending clear title. While we continue to work on the title matter, would you please check with your client in case they have any documentation showing that this lien was paid off? Not sure if this attorney has any understanding that, as a homeowner, I would not have copies of the documents related to prior owners loan and release of lien. 
Currently my home in a foreclosure with a foreclosure sale date scheduled for XX/XX/XXXX. Regretfully ; Ocwen Loan Servicing the Debt Collector, Servicer is ignoring the California State Law! Ocwen Loan Servicing is obligated to postpone the foreclosure sale date that is scheduled for XX/XX/XXXX. Not sure how you can pursue the foreclosure sale when the debt collector Ocwen Loan Servicing does not have a valid lien against the subject property. We reserve the right to take legal action against Ocwen Loan Servicing for this type of illegal business practice, VIOLATION OF THE HOMEOWNER BILL OF RIGHTS and UNFAIR BUSINESS PRACTICES CAL.

Sub-issue: Problem with rewards from credit card

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2020 at around XXXX I booked a roundtrip flight to XXXX through Chase Ultimate Rewards. Chase 's app clearly stated that for this flight I had the option to cancel with no fees within 24 hours. This policy also applied with the airlines that I booked my flight with. The next morning I decided to cancel my flights and called in to Chase Ultimate Rewards to do so ( as instructed on their website and the airlines website ) at approximately XXXX and again at approximately XXXX. Both times I was on hold for over 50 minutes before their call system disconnected me. Later that night I called the general credit card customer service for Chase Sapphire Reserve and the representative informed me that the only way to cancel the flight was to contact Chase Ultimate Rewards. Each time I have called Chase Ultimate Rewards I have been on hold for around an hour before the call system disconnects my call. I have tried to contact them at least two times to cancel these flights on the following days : XX/XX/2020, XX/XX/2020, XX/XX/2020, XX/XX/2020, and on XX/XX/2020. Each time I am left on hold for at least 50 minutes and then the call is disconnected. On XX/XX/2020 I reached out again to the general customer service number and spoke with two separate managers asking that they help connect me to someone who can cancel my flight that departs the next day. The last manager I spoke with told me there was nothing further she could do, refused to connect me with her manager, and then hung up on me after I had spent over 30 minutes on the phone trying to find someone to help me. My departing flight has now taken off without me being able to cancel it and I was not on the flight. I tried to cancel directly with the airlines but since Chase Ultimate Rewards booked the flight I was instructed that they would need to cancel the booking. The flights combined used up {$510.00} of my points.

Complaint:
on XXXX XXXX we had struggled to get a loan modification through XXXX mortgage after getting XXXX with a 3 % interest we signed on the dotted line. At the time we saw that they had installed a balloon payment of over {$28000.00} they said it was for the payments in arrears but we never missed more than 6 months of payments and this was only because XXXX mortgage said to stop paying thats the only way they would help us. Anyway back to the present ocwen our mortgage lender now added money to this bringing it to {$31000.00} that ocwen has added to our principle remaining balance. We our in the final stage of getting a va refi but again ocwen has tried to rip us off. after i had looked at our modification agreement i found that ocwen violated the contract by not changing our loan to principle and interest which they did not due .The mod agreement states that interest only period will end on XXXX XXXX XXXX which they did not due so now its going on 2 years later and only because i caught them violating the agreement on XXXX XXXX XXXX i had called them and are payment was at {$1700.00} and when i called on XXXX XXXX XXXX the payment doubled over night they took our 3 % interest and raised it to 7.25 % over night iam not a lawyer but this is against the law. So what we wanted them to do is remove the {$31000.00} from our principle loan balance because XXXX out of paying 2 years of principle on our house. they then said they would look into this matter and when i called back they told me that the amount of {$37000.00} would be removed from the pay off amount after the letter was approved .Ihave called almost everyday to find out when this would be removed so we can then payoff the remaining principle balance and get away from this completely crooked company .We were told that it would only take 10-15 days it has gone past that now they tell us to give them 24-48hrs they have said this 3 times .You can now see what we have been dealing with for years now please help us make them remove that fraudulant {$31000.00} deffered payment from our payoff amount so we get finally get a real XXXX fixed mortgage using my va refi. So were asking for any help that you can give us .Me and my family would like to thankyou in advance for any help you can give us to get them to remove that {$31000.00} from are payoff so we can proceed with our va refi thankyou.

Complaint:
My mortgage servicing company has repeatedly given me inaccurate information in regards to my mortgage loan servicing and loan modification package documentation. I contacted my servicing company when I fell behind on my mortgage payments. They set up an outlined repayment plan, and then waited 20 days to send a letter of acceptance which was 2 weeks past the due date of any payment plan down payment, so I missed the date and the subsequently, the plan was denied. I called back a second time to set it up again, and the CS rep miscalculated the repayment options, and then it was denied again. They then told me to submit a full modification package to see if maybe the modification would be accepted, but continue to be missing documentation and my loan is now in foreclosure. 
I have had the loan modified previously, and was unaware that they could not charge me a modification fee, but going through paperwork ... I was charges {$900.00} to modify the loan along with thousands of dollars worth of " misc fees ''. I also have several years worth of loan documents that are not currently available on my loan from its beginning ; 5 years of statements, payments, and tax records that can not be accounted for, as well as current years taxes and insurance bills that have not been paid and kept current. I have been billed by my local tax authority as well as my mortgage insurance company for monies due that should be paid from my escrow account.
