Company: Freedom Mortgage Company (CA)

Made a payment and they say they do n't have it. I had my bank send them proof, but they charged me a late fee and still say they do n't have it. My loan was sold to this company in XX/XX/XXXX and we have had problems ever since. I have made numerous calls and never get anywhere. I mailed my XX/XX/XXXX payment and called the day before it was due just to make sure they had my payment. They said no, so I did a stop payment on my check and did a check by phone with them for a XXXX fee. The next day, they tried to cash my check. I am sure they had it all along. For my XX/XX/XXXX payment I did an EFT payment through my bank because I was afraid to mail it after the XX/XX/XXXX mess. Now they say they do not accept EFT payments, but the XXXX XXXX servicing center took my money and still has it. What am I supposed to do?

Company: PENNYMAC LOAN SERVICES, LLC. (FL)

Hello i am having a problem with my mortgage company Penny Mac. I originally called Penny Mac with the intentions of looking for a pool loan instead I was talked into doing a refi with their company. Penny Mac told me my mortgage would be cheaper by about {$150.00} per month making my new payment {$1900.00}. As you could assume that was great for myself and my family. But, this amount did not last long bc I just received a letter in the mail saying my escrow account is in deficit by over {$8000.00} and rising! When I called Penny Mac their excuse was that they did a estimate for property taxes of around {$2000.00} but the taxes where over {$6000.00}. When I first spoke to them my deficit was in the {$7600.00} range and now just a few weeks later it 's more than {$8000.00}. They said the only thing they could do is up my mortgage to {$2500.00} over a duration of 4 yrs but yet my escrow deficit is still climbing. So now we were dropped by our flood insurance bc there was not money in our escrow account, and picked up by lender assigned flood insurance at a more expensive rate. Also when I called about this they added GAP insurance without my knowledge that day after speaking with them which added an extra {$600.00} or more to deficit. Please help Penny Mac has done nothing but take my Financial security away from me.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (OK)

Following a 2 year long battle with Citimortgage where they attempted to foreclose on me 3 times and actually refused payments to ensure that would occur -- I finally found a workable solution with the assistance of Legal Aid in Oklahoma. One of the main issues was to ensure the new note and subsequent payment would be feasible given our income. We are both XXXX in the XXXX state ( OK ) for XXXX nationally so our income is low but stable. The final loan included years of ( and XXXX of dollars in ) illegitimate delinquency and foreclosure fees and basically resulted in us being underwater with no chance of ever catching up. The payment was set at $ XXXX which we have paid in full for the past 12 months on time. I received a letter today stating the escrow account was deficient and our new house payment would jump over 40 % to {$1000.00}! I was NEVER given any warning or notice from Citimortgage that after just one year of on time payments with the new XXXX loan for a house I bought for XXXX in 2002 -- My payment would skyrocket to a level we can not afford. In fact one of the main reason for delaying the workout process was ensuring we could afford the payments and now, a year later, we have been asked to pay over {$300.00} more every month for a home we have long outgrown. We are trying desperately to fix our credit and pay off debts to make a better life XXXX XXXX kids and between the {$120.00} XXXX in student loans I have and this new mortgage surprise- I fear this home and more specifically- Citimortgage -- may have cost me my chance at the American Dream- I feel hopeless- we fought so hard and for so long to not be foreclosed on and now to be forced into such a price increase with no warning at all increases greatly the odds of us falling back into default. Can someone please help us fight the XXXX that is our mortgage company -- I ca n't do it alone anymore.

Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION (IL)

On XXXX XXXX, 2015, I made a {$100.00} cash deposit into my checking via ATM location # XXXX located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, IL. This ATM belongs to Fifth Third Bank. A deposit slip printed from the ATM showing my correct ATM card number, the date, and the deposit amount of {$100.00}. The following business day, I checked my online access account with Fifth Third Bank. The deposit had not posted. I called the XXXX branch office at XXXX and explained the situation to the teller who answered. I was advised that I would need to call XXXX and file a dispute. I called and filed. Case number XXXX was opened for me via the Disputes Resolution Dept. and I was issued a provisional credit for {$100.00} in my checking account on XXXX/XXXX/2015. I was provided with a letter regarding this transaction. 
On XXXX/XXXX/2015 I logged into my Fifth Third online access account and found the {$100.00} had been debited from my account with the description " reversal of dispute provisional credit ''. I also received in the mail a letter dated XXXX/XXXX/15 that Fifth Third Bank had denied my dispute because they had determined the ATM to be in balance. I called the Disputes Resolution department immediately and was advised to bring my ATM receipt into the branch where the deposit was made. I went to the branch on XXXX/XXXX/15 and sat down with personal banker, XXXX XXXX, and we together made a call to the Dispute Resolutions dept. where we were instructed to fax a copy of my ATM deposit receipt to XXXX. The fax was made and I was sent home with no timeframe of completion. I followed up with the disputes resolution dept. on XXXX/XXXX/15 to verify the fax was received and to determine a timeframe in resolving my dispute. I was advised the fax was ( 1 ) received, but ( 2 ) my claim was still denied because the ATM was found to be in balance. I followed up with an email to XXXX XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/15 letting him know the findings. I have not been offered any help in resolving this matter. 
I find it to be absolutely unacceptable from a customer service standpoint that a deposit can be made into an ATM, a proof of deposit receipt is provided, and yet the {$100.00} is missing. The XXXX branch has provided absolutely no service at this point. The denying of my dispute by the Dispute Resolution dept after providing solid proof is also unacceptable.

My question is why did they tell me they would submit a request in early XXXX, and did not actually submit it until late XXXX, after I called. Freedom Mortgage informed me through telephone call and some kind of post-it note I received on my door, I was authorized to miss XXXX mortgage payments, which Freedom Mortgage denied later. I sent copies of the notice I received on my front door. So I been getting the emails constantly that they found some errors in the subordination, but those errors were not on my part. Then they emailed me again saying errors had been corrected and they were going to forward it for approval to the title company and this was going on for XXXX3 weeks. Now we into XXXX and they keep saying that theyre awaiting on the approval from the title company which I believe was another prolonged setback on closing my refinance. In XXXX of 2016 I received an email from Freedom Mortgage informing me an account must be current in order to close. Due to the prolonged delays and setbacks, I missed XXXX and XXXX payment due to this setback which resulted in Freedom Mortgage that they were going to withdraw their refinance request.

Firstly, I was lead to believe by the XXXX representative that this loan was through them and not a third party.Secondly, I was never advised in any manner that the loan had been sold. I was under the impression that when I asked for assistance this is what they were giving me. Thirdly, The paperwork indicates I settled with ClearSprings, so XXXX should not be reporting to my credit accounts.
