Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: MI
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint:
I fell behind on my mortgage several times throughout the years. I have submitted several applications for a modification before being told that the investor/owner of my loan did not allow them. Since then, I have been encouraged for several years to apply for a loan modification by my mortgage servicer, Ocwen. I explained to them that they continue to send me the applications and encourage me to apply, when they told me that my investor did not allow them. I later contacted the investor to be told that they did not make such a decision as it related to my loan, however, they refused to get involved when asked to contact the servicer. They did send me a letter. I contacted Ocwen several times over, demanding that they check my note to see if the investor/owner permitted modifications at the present time. They again told me that modifications were not allowed. I applied again last week and was denied the HAMP Tier 1, HAMP Tier 2, Shared Appreciation Modification and Proprietary Modification programs. My non-approval notice read " Unfortunately, the owner of your loan does not allow loan modifications. Please note, not all eligibility factors were evaluated ''. They also ran my credit report when they " knew '' I did not qualify. In the meantime, I checked my original mortgage note to find where it read " modifications are allowed ''. I can not believe how deceitful and manipulative these servicers are. Please, grant me the modification that I qualify for! To add insult to injury, I attempted to compare my original note with what Ocwen recorded as my note, it shows an entirely different note. The property recorded does n't belong to me, I have never held the account number listed with any of the many servicers that I 've had and my signature is not listed on the note. Someone else signed their note and Ocwen has it recorded in my case file. This raises questions as to what note they 're actually reading and if this is some sort of rip-off or scam? I also question Ocwen 's contract with my investor/owners, XXXX?

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
In XX/XX/XXXX I obtained a leased vehicle with XXXX XXXX services through their dealership XXXX in XXXX. About 2 years into the lease I was contacted by the salesman whom offered me to upgrade my vehicle into a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I went to the dealership and signed the papers and traded my old XXXX XXXX for the new XXXX XXXX XXXX. About 2 weeks after I had the new XXXX XXXX, the dealership contacted me and told me that they had calculated the incorrect payoff amount on the vehicle and that I still owed a payment. 

At the time I was in college and a student, I could not afford to make a second Car payment and told the dealership that this was not fair as they can not contact me 2 weeks after I drop the car off and tell me I still owe money when I signed the contract already. I offered to bring the car back and return it for my old vehicle but they said it was not possible.

About 6 months later, I received a statement in the mail indicating that I would need to payoff the balance left on the vehicle or I would owe a significant amount of money as they would charge the account off. I phoned them and although still annoyed that I had to pay for the dealerships mistake, I agreed to pay off the balance. The representative then informed me that the car had already been auctioned and I now owed them around {$3200.00}. At that time it was completely impossible for me to pay since I had just come out of college. 

2 years later and finally agreed to settle the balance with them as I needed to obtain a loan for housing. I paid the amount and the account was settled. I have now discovered that they were continuously reporting payments on the vehicle for up to 8 months even when I did not have the vehicle in my possession or was not making payments to them. This gave a FALSE date of first delinquency that continues to disrupt my credit as the charge off shows wrongly. I have paid thousands of dollars in extra interest over other loans due to XXXX XXXX incompetence to provide correct Credit reporting. Additionally I have asked numerous time through dispute and direct contact for them to assist and fix the reporting errors to no avail.

I was at the XXXX dealership yesterday XX/XX/20 because I'm in need of a new car but when they ran my credit to see if I qualified for the auto loan, I was told that I could not be approved at this time due to having accounts in negative standing appearing on my credit. I had no idea what accounts they were talking about but after looking through my report myself, I saw four accounts that do not belong to me. The accounts were opened with these companies XXXX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX & XXXX  XXXX  XXXX. I did not open any of these accounts and I did not give anyone permission to open them in my name or with my personal information.

Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: NY
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional fixed mortgage
Issue: Settlement process and costs

Complaint:
On Monday, XXXX XXXX, 2015, I am scheduled to complete the closing sale of my home in XXXX, Florida. As such during XXXX 2015, I contacted Ocwen Loan Servicing , LLC at their website to find out what the PAYOFF amount on the mortgage was going to be. Ocwen Loan Servicing , LLC subsequently sent me by mail the necessary written documentation dated XXXX XXXX, 2015, under PAYOFF QUOTE VALID THROUGH XXXX/XXXX/2015, which tabulates the Total Amount Due, to be : {$170000.00}. This is broken down as such : Principal, {$170000.00} ; Interest, {$2700.00} ; Satisfaction Cost, {$10.00} and Late Charges, {$130.00}, for a grand Total Amount Due of {$170000.00}. ( Such documentation was faxed over by me to XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ). However, on XXXX XXXX, 2015, I contacted Ocwen by telephone, primarily to confirm the real estate county tax payment due on the closing date of XX/XX/XXXX and, which XXXX XXXX, XXXX had told me was supposed to be {$2400.00} and which Ocwen had quoted them. The Ocwen agent, by the name of " XXXX '', then quoted me a PayOff amount totaling {$170000.00} which I immediately disputed pursuant to the written quote which Ocwen had submitted & which I re-iterated to him ; and he also informed me that the real estate tax amount due was {$2700.00}, which again I disputed pursuant to their initial quote to XXXX XXXX, XXXX. Immediately after completing my phone conversation with that agent at Ocwen, I received a telephone call from the Closing Agent at XXXX XXXX, XXXX, who told me that she had just been notified by Ocwen, that the PayOff amount due Ocwen had increased to {$170000.00}, while the real estate taxes which I needed to pay off by Certified check at closing had been increased based upon Ocwen to {$2900.00}. However, the real estate taxes have always been in escrow with Ocwen ( the documentation for such was also submitted to XXXX XXXX, XXXX, as I had received it by mail from Ocwen as well ), but which they will not pay to the county until XX/XX/2015, and which now requires that I myself pay it at closing according to XXXX XXXX, XXXX and confirmed by Ocwen. I have had a series of disputes with Ocwen due to the high interest rate of 7.94 % bearing on the mortgage and which I attempted to have lowered via mediation by the Consumer Financial Portection Bureau, but for which I was always unsuccessful thereby creating the circumstance which causes me to sell the home ( at a very signifcant loss to boot ). It is totally unnecessary, vexing and practically fraudulent by Ocwen at this point to have increased the Total PayOff amount as well as the total real estate tax liability which I am afraid I will not be able to recoup from Ocwen.

Issue: Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint:
This debt per my insurance company was not submitted. I have asked the doctors office multiple times to submit it to the correct insurance company for payment. They refuse to work with me. They refused to allow me to text them a copy of the insurance card. They do not have secured email to send the insurance card to. XXXX XXXX is the contact at XXXX XXXX XXXX and has refused to handle this situation in a professional manner. 

She has threaten to turn me to collections knowing very well that I have XXXX XXXX XXXX that will pay this in full and I would only owe a {$25.00} co-pay and yet she refuses to allow for a secure way for me to provide the information to her to resolve it. 

I work onsite with clients in various time zones and ca n't do " old school phone calls '' - they wo n't provide a portal and/or a texting ability to ensure I can securely send the information at a time outside of my normal working hours. 

They are on the verge of fraud for turning this to collections without processing to the insurance company that I have requested. My husband had me on his policy until end of XXXX 2016 and my insurance started on XXXX XXXX, 2016 so they were to either claim to his first mine secondary and/or determine what was going to pay out the best - mine policy was better and would only be a {$25.00} copay. 

My feeling is that they are having to write off more with my insurance policy thus trying to use only my husbands policy so they can ask for more out of pocket from me - this is on the verge of fraud and not in the best interest of the customer.

Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
I am having a problem with my mortgage company Ocwen. On XX/XX/2015. I found out that they never paid my flood or homeowners insurance. When I called them they said that they sent both checks out on XXXX/XXXX/2015. It seemed strange to me that both checks never went to the XXXX different providers of insurance. So after several attempts to resolve this issue Ocwen finally did a conference call with my insurance company and myself. Everything would be taken care of. Ocwen only paid my flood insurance never sent the check for homeowners. Ocwen sends me a letter stating I do n't have insurance and they woulsd provide it but I would be better off to get it myself. Called my insurance company and because it was n't paid on XX/XX/2015 I was consider delinquent and had to go into a surplus pool and only XXXX would issue a policy at {$3600.00}. My previous policy was {$2700.00}. A huge difference which Ocwen said they would look into reimbursing me the difference by filing a hardship for their mistake. They did n't issue anything, never even acknowledged it. Since a year had passed I was considered no longer a surplus pool candidate and applied for homeowners insurance and received a policy at {$1600.00}. I had my insurance company fax, mail and they talked to Ocwen and everything was good ( XXXX/XXXX/2015 ). Ocwen would pay the new premium. They never paid it again so I paid for the policy out of my own pocket. Did n't want to be placed in the same boat as before.
