Consumer complaint received 07/18/2016 about Mortgage (Home equity loan or line of credit) with Specialized Loan Servicing LLC (CA).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: I am currently attempting to modify an existing XXXX mortgage ( HELOC ) that will be maturing around XXXX/XXXX/2016. The loan is currently serviced by Specialized Loan Servicing LLC or SLS. I 'm attempting to get an extension of the maturity date of the second mortgage since my home is currently underwater in order to avoid a foreclosure or short sale. In the 10 years I 've had this mortgage I 've never once been late, on this second or the first. I began the process of modifying/extending my second mortgage nearly 7 weeks ago with essentially no progress being made during that time, even though I have provided SLS with all the documentation they have requested thus far. I have sent them my pay stubs 5 times now, with each time SLS claiming they either did not receive them or claiming they were unreadable. I receive no feedback from my single point of contact when there is a problem with any of the paperwork, with the responsibility being on myself to constantly call them to status my paperwork. I do not necessarily have a problem calling them to stay on top of things, but the problem with SLS is that they do not answer in bound calls. When I call my single point of contact, XXXX ( Teller ID XXXX ), all I get is an option to arrange a call back. Call backs typically happen two days later, which results is big delays. The biggest issue I 'm facing is that as this process gets drawn out by SLS, paystubs and other documentation become stale and then needs to be resent. On Thursday XXXX XXXX I had my last conversation with XXXX, where she informed me once again that the paystubs I faxed in were hard to read. Prior to that, I had overnighted the paystubs at my own expense, with one time them being lost and the other them becoming tale due to the inaction of SLS in advancing my request. During this last conversation, I expressed my frustration with both her and SLS. She informed me that she is currently assigned over XXXX accounts/clients and does n't have the time to call me back or stay on top of my file. At that point, I requested a call back from a supervisor. As of today, XXXX XXXX I have still not received a call back from her supervisor. In addition, I have called numerous times requesting a call back from XXXX but have not received a call back from her or anyone else at SLS. I am growing frustrated and scared because my loan maturity is now only 4 weeks ago with no sign that SLS is capable of advancing my request. Please help!!!!

Issue: Managing the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Billing problem

Complaint: We purchased a car through Nissan Motor Acceptance Corporation on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and scheduled our first payment to be due on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, we enrolled in SignatureDIRECTPAY by printing the online form and submitting to XXXX via XXXX as instructed, for automatic monthly payment deductions. It states on the website " It is important that you continue to make payments on your account until you receive a notification letter with the start date of your payment deductions ''. XXXX processed the form on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. We did not receive a confirmation letter via XXXX but it states on my XXXX account under the Payment Dashboard section " You have a SignatureDIRECTPAY of {$650.00} scheduled for XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ''. As of XXXX/XXXX/XXXX they had not deducted the payment from my account so contacted customer support and was told " XXXX is scheduled to start on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, so you would need to make your XXXX payment manually '' and " XXXX is activated within 15 days of us receiving the automatic payment documents ''. The customer service rep said " Your state has a XXXX window of opportunity '' so an option for me was to wait and see if the payment posted. I have read many forums about how XXXX does this to their customers and how they will charge interest as well as report a late payment to credit companies, which will affect my XXXX XXXX. I setup XXXX to avoid the fee XXXX charges just to make a payment. I looked on my account to see what the fee would be and received a " Additional Payment Warning XXXX '' stating that I had a payment scheduled or in process and to refer to the Payment Dashboard. The customer service rep said his supervisor was not available today but would contact me in XXXX business days.

Consumer complaint received 06/26/2015 about Debt collection (Credit card) with HSBC NORTH AMERICA HOLDINGS INC. (CT).
Issue: Taking/threatening an illegal action
Sub-issue: Threatened arrest/jail if do not pay

Complaint: There is a credit card that was issued by Household Bank. The debt went bad. I settled this debt with a debt collector years ago. I received a call from a collection company or attorney in Florida stating that they were going to have me arrested for Fraud. I spoke with an XXXX the first time. She would not give any information and started insulting me. I told her I was going to file a complaint with the FTC and my state 's attorney generals office. 

As I was filling out this form I called back to ask the address of the firm. They forwarded me to another person named XXXX. He was very argumentative and told me that they do not give out their address. After he continually asked me why I wanted to know their address, I finally told him it was so I could forward the information to my attorney generals office and the FTC. I said I do n't really need it but the form was requesting it. 

His response was that I apparently have everything I need. He then stated " also, do not contact this phone number again ''

Consumer complaint received 02/24/2016 about Debt collection (I do not know) with ERC (TX).
Issue: Improper contact or sharing of info
Sub-issue: Contacted employer after asked not to

Complaint: This collection agency is calling my employer and telling them I need to call them or they will arrange some sort of wage garnishment. I have called them back and learned that the date of birth and social security number they have do not match mine. They just have my first and last name and only my employer phone number which is easy to find since I am on google and am a professional in the community. I have had contact with them 3 times and each time have told them their information does not match mine and they are looking for the wrong person. I have told them to stop calling my employer and they have proceeded to call and continue to fish for information from the business office at my employer. I owe no debt and have an immaculate credit record and score and also a common name and I should not be subjected to harassment from a company that clearly has the wrong information.

Consumer complaint received 01/15/2016 about Mortgage (FHA mortgage) with STONEGATE MORTGAGE CORPORATION (CA).
Issue: Settlement process and costs

Complaint: I was offered terms to refinance a current FHA home loan, and proceeded with the loan origination. They were made aware that the seasoning requirement from a previous short-sale was not going to be met until the end of XXXX 2015, however I was assured that they can originate the loan sooner, but would not close it until the seasoning timeframe was met in XXXX. As we neared closure, I was then informed that the underwriters would not accept the loan since it was originated prior to the seasoning requirement, and was not acceptable even if closure would not happen until XXXX. This was not in alignment with what I was originally told. The rate lock then expired and another loan was originated in XXXX. This loan then sat waiting for " pricing exemptions '' and other rate adjustments that the loan officer was trying to push through to match the original terms from the 1st origination. This then lead to another expiration of the rate lock. Now, the mortgage company is offering me terms that are much different from what was originally agreed to, which includes a higher loan amount to cover the rate re-lock fees ( which expired due to issues on their end ), as well as to cover PMI, which they said was going to be lender-paid in the original terms. They 've also done a 2nd appraisal to on the property in order to try and further adjust terms and costs.

Consumer complaint received 02-12-2018 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with EQUIFAX, INC. (NC).
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Other problem getting your report or credit score

Complaint: Hi, In mid XX/XX/2017, my wife and I initiated credit freezes with all three credit agencies. I received a PIN from Equifax to be able to unlock the freeze, my wife did not. In mid XXXX, we both wanted to temporarily lift the freezes for a credit check. My PIN would not work, although the CSR was able to lift the freeze. My waif was unable to lift her freeze without a PIN and so requested a new PIN. This new PIN was never received and so I emailed Equifax via their company portal to get an update on status of the newly requested PIN which never arrived. I haven't received a response. My wife spent 45 minutes today on the phone with Equifax and the issue is still not resolved. This is unacceptable to have our personal information held XXXX by a third party we never gave permission to and have no contractual obligation to. Equifax were unable to keep out personal data safe from hackers and now appear unable to release our credit file to lenders.
