I requested a balance transfer from an old credit card to a new XXXX from Wells Fargo. Allegedly there was an error in XXXX digit of the old credit card from which I was transfering, and the balance transfered was not from the intended account.

No one has called me despite my many requests for info. Now I still have the old balance, plus wells Fargo applied to my new credit the transfer balance, so I have XXXX the debt. I just want them to do a reversal of the transaction.

Issue: Application, originator, mortgage broker — 
Company: AMA Advisors, LLC. (OH)

There was lack of communication from the lender, HomeBridge, and the Buyer and Seller involved in the deal. The lender kept pushing back the closing when they told us it could be done in 30 days. There were just excuses and really no concrete reason for the delay. At first it was because of the buyer 's verification of rent ; but, it was a simple needing the buyer to sign a release form to allow the rental agency to send the documents to the lender. After that I do n't know what the reason was for a 2 week delay in closing. It was a lot of simple mistakes and not owning the issue. Luckily we closed ; but, there was a lot of unnecessary drama involved.

Company: Onity Group Inc. (NC)

Ocwen Loan Servicing , LLC became the alleged loan servicer on my mortgage when the mortgage was in default, which qualifies Ocwen as a debt collector. I disputed the mortgage with the alleged lender and on XX/XX/XXXX the grantor notified XXXX that the dispute had been settled by the grantor, the account balance is zero and the account is closed. Ocwen stopped reporting information to the credit bureaus as a result of the grantors settlement of the debt on XX/XX/XXXX, however, Ocwen has continued its attempts to collect the debt. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent XXXX XXXX, at Ocwen an email informing him that the balance is zero and that a satisfaction needs to be recorded in the XXXX County Register of Deeds to reflect that the mortgage has been satisfied/canceled. I asked for a reinstatement amount if any that Ocwen was claiming was owed that was different from the Zero balance reported by the grantor and XXXX XXXX XXXX replied through counsel representing Ocwen that the reinstatement amount exceeded XXXX. XXXX continued attempts to collect on this closed account violates FDCPA laws as Ocwen is misrepresenting the amount and status of the alleged debt.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (NV)

I fell behind on my mortgage 27 months ago because my husband was XXXX. The medical bills and the fact that he could n't work ( we had a XXXX ) left me unable to make mortgage payments during that time. The business was losing money each month and the medical bills were overwhelming. In XXXX XXXX my husband finally passed away from his XXXX. In XXXX XXXX I closed our business. I then approached my mortgage company ASC and explained the situation to them. I advised them that my financial hardship had ended with the passing of my husband and closing of our business. I have a steady income and I would like the opportunity to save my home. The only response I have received from ASC was that " my payment is affordable '' and they can not help me. My attorney called and spoke with them asking why I was denied for a regular modification. They replied it was due to my NPV and that my payment is affordable. Neither of which pertain to my hardship and situation. I tried to explain to them that my hardship was not an un-affordable payment. It was XXXX. I am not asking for any payment reductions. I only request to be considered for a Regular Re-Capitalization modification that will bring my loan current. I am fine with the payment increasing and I understand my balance will increase after the modification due to the missed payments. I have since hired an attorney to re-submit my paperwork for me and they state I qualify for a Regular Modification. I have run my NPV and it is Positive and so the denial reason of negative NPV ( for a standard modification ) is not a true statement. ASC has filed a Notice of Sale on XXXX XXXX, XXXX with a sale date of XXXX XXXX, XXXX. They did this after filing a Notice of Default from two years ago on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I am not sure this is even legal in my state to issue a notice of sale two years after a Notice of Default. I am asking that they simply give me time to have my updated financials reviewed for a regular modification before moving forward with my sale date.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (CA)

We first attempted to modify our loan just over 2 years ago with Wells Fargo. Since then, there have been 2 more attempts. In each case, we were assigned multiple negotiators from Wells Fargo, and the standard practice was always the same!! Ask for condition, after condition, after condition, until their 90 day time limit to complete the modification would expire, at which time they would blame us for not completing the paperwork in a timely manner. This would trigger them to toss out the file, and make us start all over again. Not only would they condition us to death, but another tactic they use is to simply say they ca n't find what we sent them in their system. Let me tell you that I am a very well educated man, working as a XXXX, so I know how to XXXX. The debt ratios we had during the first to attempts to modify our loan were right in line with what Wells Fargo needed to approve us, but instead they chose to string us along for over 2 years. There is a clear case of Dual Tracking here, and we can prove it with over XXXX saved emails going back and forth with Wells Fargo. We also have a good friend with over 28 years experience as a XXXX, that looked at the overwhelming evidence we have, and said we have a winnable case against Wells Fargo. All we want is to modify our loan, which happens to be a pay option ARM. There has been a Notice Of Default filed by Wells Fargo, but no sale date posted at this time. We have XXXX PDF files we would like to send you that will prove our case. In addition, our mortgage broker is willing to testify that Wells Fargo lost numerous documents we sent to them via email over this 2 years time period. Please Help Us ... ..So we do n't lose our house!!!
