Consumer complaint received 2018-05-09
Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: PHH Mortgage Services Corporation (CA)

I have automatic ACH payment processing setup with my mortgage company, PHH Mortgage. The payment is configured to draft from my checking account on the XX/XX/XXXX of each month. In the management section of the website where one can configure their payments, there is an option for additional principle payment along with your standard monthly mortgage payment. 

The day after my XXXX payment ( {$2500.00} ) was processed, I configured an additional principle payment of {$43000.00}. In the beginning of XXXX, {$45000.00} was debited from my account. This was expected as it is the sum total of my standard monthly payment with the extra principle I chose to pay. On XX/XX/XXXX, I logged into their account management website and removed the {$43000.00} additional interest payment, as I wanted it to be a one time payment. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, PHH Mortgage again attempted to debit my account for {$45000.00}. Upon calling them, they acknowledged their mistake and assured me it would not happen again. I explained to them that I was extremely unhappy as their mistake had caused both of my accounts to be overdrawn, essentially freezing all of my available funds and that I did not want this to happen again. They assured me once again that the issue had been addressed on their end and that the ACH payment would not be retried. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, they once again attempted to debit my account for {$45000.00}, again overdrafting my accounts and freezing all available funds. All of my funds have been frozen for at least 4 of the last 7 days because PHH refused to proactively intervene. 

I understand mistakes happen, however, there are a couple of issues that concern me here : First, they did not process my request to remove the additional principle payment until XX/XX/XXXX even though i initiated this change on their website more than two weeks prior. This would indicate to me that while I am making changes to my account electronically, there is still some sort of manual process being followed on their end that requires human intervention. I would suspect that there are federal regulations regarding this sort of thing to which PHH is not in compliance.

Secondly, PHH indicated to me that once an ACH is initiated on their end, they have no control to stop it or the subsequent retry attempts that may result from NSF situations. Again, I would suspect that this is not true and that there are probably federal banking regulations to which PHH is not in compliance.

Company: POLARIS HOME FUNDING CORP (OH)

I was recommended to XXXX XXXX Funding for a XXXX XXXX FHA loan. When I visited another lender to look at refinancing options they noticed an excessive loan origination fee. The new lender showed me near the bottom of the closing cost page that the original lender XXXX XXXX XXXX had charged me so much that they had to credit me {$2300.00} because they were already over the legal limit. I questioned my loan originator about the amount and was told this is typical for this type of loan. I was told from multiple other companies this was an example of predatory lending and it gives the industry a very poor reputation. XXXX XXXX was my loan originator with XXXX XXXX funding NMLS # XXXX.
