Consumer complaint received 2021-03-01
Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — 
Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC (TX)

Shellpoint Mortgage returned my XX/XX/XXXX payment because I was in the arrears and was not in a payment plan. 

XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I documented by emailing Shellpoint that I had be diagnosed with an XXXX XXXX and XXXX and due to covid able to return to work. I requested a mortgage modification and provided completed documentation. 

On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Shellpoint acknowledged receipt of complete documents required for the mortgage modification. 

It has been over 30 days since XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and Shellpoint has not provided a trial mortgage modification. 

Below is the email of the completed documents submitted XXXX, XXXX. 

" XXXX XXXX XXXX Attachments XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX to XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Via Email XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Single Point of Contact Dear Shellpoint : On XX/XX/XXXX I sent the email below. 

Then, Shellpoint mailed two letters dated XX/XX/XXXX. Attached Exhibit A was actually mailed on or about XX/XX/XXXX. However, the letter marked exhibit B, was backdated and not received until XX/XX/XXXX. 

These competing letters are confusing because per Letter- Exhibit A, no additional information was necessary. Thus, in accordance with flex mod ref guide I would have been extended a flex modification because Shellpoint alleges that I am 180 days behind in payments. Though this allegation is disputed, being 60 days behind in part because Shellpoint returned my payment in XXXX stating there was no payment plan in place, despite the fact I had previously asked for a forbearance due to Covid 19. 

Since Exhibit B, was not mailed until later and received until XX/XX/XXXX, the 30 days to submit all documents should not expire until XX/XX/XXXX, if Shellpoint asserts it did not receive a required document.
