Consumer complaint received 03-10-2017 about Mortgage (Other mortgage) with SELECT PORTFOLIO SERVICING, INC. (MA).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: Dear Sir or madam : I received a permanent HAMP modification agreement for a residential mortgage from sps Select Portfolio Servicing inc., XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, Utah, XXXX and completed my trial payments both timely and in full in XXXX. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I received the final modification agreement and on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I signed, dated, and notarized it, and I faxed and mailed it to SPS. I complied with the SPS requirement that SPS receive the modification as evidenced by the XXXX/XXXX/XXXX dated stamped copy of the first page of the modification. 
Since then I have continued to make my payments timely and in full. I also called SPS requently to check on the status of my modification approval, where I was told it was under review. At no time was I made aware that the modification agreement I submitted was in any way inadequate. I was shocked and dismayed to receive a XXXX/XXXX/XXXX Denial letter from SPS claiming that the modification was rejected for allegedly not returning the agreement by XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. There did seem to be an error made by the notary through no fault of my own and as soon as I was made aware of this, I immediately recent the agreement with the missing notary information. I have since been told by SPS on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX from speaking with XXXX XXXX of SPS that SPS now has the XXXX signed notarized and dated copies of the modification agreement that they require and that there was a good possibility that it would be approved. 

At no time prior to XXXX/XXXX/XXXX did SPS inform me that I needed to anything other than saying that the modification was under review. To be overly thorough, I have since faxed, overnight express mailed, and mailed postage pre-paid certified return receipt requested on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX yet another compliantly dated, signed, and notarized copy to SPS dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. 

In response to the SPS denial letter, I have a since written an appeal letter to SPS explaining and correcting any alleged deficiencies relative to this modication. At this time it is important to mention that SPS has accepted all of my forbearance payments of I believe {$2500.00} for the first XXXX trial period and now is accepting permanent loan modication payments in the amount of {$2500.00}. 

Also within the 30 day appeal time of the SPS XXXX/XXXX/XXXX denial of modification letter, I have even sent SPS yet another completely compliant signed, notarized, and XXXX/XXXX/XXXX dated copy of this modification agreement : faxed, express overnight mail XXXX sets of originals, and first class postage pre-paid, return receipt requested XXXX more sets of originals. 
In conclusion, this residential home mortgage modification account number ending in XXXX should be approved as the consumer has expended Herculean efforts to comply with the SPS requirements to meet approval. I have a son with special needs in the school district where we reside. I am a single Dad and both my son and I would be devasted if we were forced to move. 
Thank you XXXX XXXX
