Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (CA)

First of all, I am a long term, loyal customer of Wells Fargo. I have been devastated and hurt by Wells Fargo and I am reaching out to you because I can not seem to get help through customer service without excuses, multiple dropped calls, transfers, and red tape. In XX/XX/XXXX, I had a mortgage with WF loan # XXXX. I had a short sale which involved extenuating circumstances. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Three weeks later there was a copycat incident next door ; however the parolee was arrested and sent to prison. Needless to say my property value plummeted. I continued to make payments for nearly a year and was advised that in order to do a short sale I had to stop making payments. Up to that point I was making payments on TWO WF mortgages. <P/>The house finally sold as a short sale in XX/XX/XXXX with WF receiving ALL MONEY owed. This was not a foreclosure sale although foreclosure process had begun. I worked very closely with WF and my realtor. In fact, in the middle of this, WF refinanced my other mortgage on my XXXX XXXX property! <P/>Recently I tried applying for a mortgage only to find out that WF listed this on my credit report as a foreclosure, completely destroying my chances of a home loan. <P/>I have made numerous calls to WF. At one point a couple days ago, someone sent me a letter acknowledging the mortgage was paid in full. I called back to ask for another letter clarifying it was not sold as a foreclosure and was told " no '' because the record was purged! <P/>I am shocked I can not get any assistance from WF. I was told that the information on this loan was " purged '' or archived because it was so old. I have been given a big runaround and can not get any anyone to help me. <P/>I tried getting a mortgage from WF, and they are avoiding me and not returning my calls. I finally found out from a loan agent in another company that WF deemed this sale a FORECLOSURE so a home loan was not feasible. However, I would have qualified for a loan even with the short sale because I have an excellent history of paying my mortgages, and this was a short sale in XX/XX/XXXX with extenuating circumstances. <P/>I would like WF to please correct my credit report AND please write me a letter saying that the " property was paid in full and sold not as the result of a foreclosure ''. Please do not deprive me of my right to home ownership. <P/>I would have preferred simply to get a mortgage from WF but nothing looks possible now. <P/>I have always spoken so highly of Wells Fargo, entrusted them with all my accounts, and felt like the institution looked out for me. Even during negative press about bad loans etc I was singing their praises about what an upstanding, honest loyal company you were. <P/>Please help me.
