Consumer complaint received 08/14/2015 about Mortgage (Other mortgage) with WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (MS).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: We received a mortgage loan through Wells Fargo Financial in 2005, ( this being a refinance from an earlier loan ). We have since discovered that this loan was based on the rule of XXXX 's for the application of payments. Congress passed law in 1991 stating that this form of accounting could not be issued to loans over 61 months, our loan is for 240 months. Because of this loan structure, we were unable to refinance with any other company because we owed far more on the loan than we originally borrowed. We have tried for 5 years to have Wells Fargo correct the errors in our loan servicing, to no avail. After 5 years, Wells Fargo has now foreclosed on the property. We had to file an emergency Chapter XXXX bankruptcy in order to save our home. After years of research, I have uncovered more errors in the loan servicing. Examples of these errors are : WFF APR is twice the amount of the average APR at the time of the loan making this a high cost mortgage, of which are subject to the requirements of TILA 12 C.F.R. 1026.35 ( Title 12 of the Federal Register ). TILA Sections 108, 129, 129B, 129C and 130 state the statute of limitations to be 3 years. Our appraisal and income was inflated in order to qualify for this loan, a violation in which the originator must make certain of the ability to repay. No counseling session was required thus no counseling certificate was presented. 12 CFR 1026.32 ( d ) ( 6 ) prohibits pre payment penalties on these loans. 12 CFC 1026.35 ( b ) requires escrow to be established ( no escrow established on our loan ). 12 CFR 1026.36 prohibits loan originator compensation whereas our loan included commission to the officer. 12 CFR 1026.36 ( h ) prohibits mandatory arbitration on waiver of certain consumer rights, such arbitration agreement was included in our loan closing. The loan originator must be licensed with XXXX and the loan documents must reflect this. No Identification number was included, bringing up the question as to the qualifications of the originator. We never received our Truth in Lending Disclosure. With all this being said, due to the structure of this loan and our inability to have these errors corrected, our credit has been significantly damaged and un-repairable. The damages that Wells Fargo has caused us both financially and emotionally are insurmountable.

Consumer complaint received 09/16/2015 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (UT).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: I was laid off XX/XX/XXXX. We contacted our mortgage lender, JP Morgan Chase, and were granted a 12-month unemployment forbearance XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX ( two months later ), we called Chase to let them know I was working again and submitted our paperwork to re-start normal payments on our mortgage. XX/XX/XXXX, Chase contacted us and asked for a forbearance payment. We explained that I was working now and that our Customer Assistance Specialist had informed us that our unemployment forbearance had been canceled. Chase insisted that we make a payment anyway, which we did. Chase called again in XX/XX/XXXX and insisted on another forbearance payment. These funds ( over XXXX dollars ) went into an " Unapplied Funds '' account which did not count towards our mortgage payment, and that money was not returned to us. XX/XX/XXXX, Chase contacted us and told us that our account was marked delinquent since XX/XX/XXXX and asked what our intentions were. I told them the paperwork was in their hands and offered to make our normal mortgage payment right then so we would n't get further behind while waiting for them to process our paperwork. Their response was that they could NOT accept any payments on the account unless we first paid the entire past-due balance! This was ( at the time ) XXXX months of payments plus late fees, totaling almost XXXX dollars! I explained that I was newly-employed and did n't have XXXX extra dollars to give them, but would happily make a normal payment. Again, they said that any payment made would simply go into the " Unapplied Funds '' account and would not count towards our mortgage. Each month since then, they have contacted us or we have contacted them, with the same result ( except the past-due amount has increased ). XX/XX/XXXX, I finally received Chase 's determination. They said we were ineligible for any assistance and suggested we short sell the home we have lived in for 14 years. We told them that was an unacceptable option, as we have approx. {$40000.00} in equity. Although we filed a Dispute of their determination, they informed us in XX/XX/XXXX of their intent to foreclose. So, as it now stands, our mortgage holder, JP Morgan Chase, will not accept mortgage payments from us while, at the same time, they continue to list us as delinquent and are adding late fees and payments to our past-due balance each month, and are now starting the foreclosure process! We feel like Chase is trying to rob us of the equity in our home, as well as committing fraud by ( 1 ) listing us as delinquent while refusing to accept any payments from us and ( 2 ) requiring payments from us and then not applying them to our mortgage or returning the money to us. Help!
