Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint:
We are having communication problems with BB & T Mortgage, we were hoping you could intervene and get them to help us get our mortgage back on track. We have tried to work with their representatives to obtain a modification on our loan, but they have not responded to our petition. They set us up on a forbearance plan, which we complied to the last payment of the agreement, in the intent for BB & T set us up on a loan modification plan. 
They are either purposely trying to take our home away or have a very dysfunctional process. Either way, we would like for you to look into what they are doing so we can get our loan payments back on track and keep our home. We have had some financial challenges, due to unemployment and delicate surgery. This is what caused for us to fall behind the loss of income, and the recovery time of my surgery. 
The good news is we are all back on our feet.. Our financial problems were due to inconsistent income and some unfortunate events as described above. We were forced to temporary discontinue making our mortgage payments. Without our income we fell into a financial chasm, but we tried to keep up with the mortgage payments for as long as we could. Ultimately we fell behind on our payments, what we want is to resume making our mortgage payments. Every other creditor that we contacted was very understanding and worked with me through our temporary financial and health crises, but BB & T Mortgage is refusing to come to the table with any tangible solution for assistance. During all of this we have tried and complied with BB & T Mortgage to get some help with our mortgage, buy agreeing with the forbearance plan but they wo n't listen and have denied me access to government homeowner assistance programs. No matter how many times we have contacted them, it has been a futile effort. We have not had a single point of contact nor have they offered any sort of assistance or repayment plan to get our payments on track. They insist that we pay our entire past due amount, but this is impossible and we are left with no options because they will not work with me. We have been given the runaround by them and just feel they are acting as judge, jury and executioner regarding our options without fairly reviewing our financial circumstances. If we truly can not afford our home, then we will move, but we believe that our loan fits squarely within government guidelines. We are hoping you could reach out to them on our behalf so we can save our home from an impending foreclosure sale. 
What we want : We simply want a review of our mortgage for all available retention options so that we can keep our home. We do not need a handout or be given something we do n't deserve, but we want the opportunity to be treated fairly. Our financial future looks bright and we will not have any financial issues moving forward if we can get this resolved reasonably. Thank you in advance for any help you could provide. 
SincerelyXXXX XXXX
