Complaint narrative:
Our mortgage is held by Nationstar Mortgage. We went into XXXX XXXX bankruptcy in XXXX XXXX. One of the conditions for our successful discharge in XXXX XXXX is that creditors must report to the bankruptcy court that we had fulfilled all our obligations in a timely manner. Nationstar reported that we had done so. 

However, now Nationstar is stating we are in default on mortgage. They have " suspended '' our payments because of {$170.00} in fees that are past due. We have had XXXX different conversations with XXXX different representatives, even though we ask to speak to the person we spoke to the previous discussion. We have now had XXXX different explanations as to the source of the fees and charges and NONE of them are ever the same. We also receive verbal assurance that the " fees '' are in error and that the customer service representative we were speaking to at that time had removed the " fees '' and corrected our loan status. However the phone calls and emails have continued, stating we are in default. 

We have not received a monthly statement in years so when our case was discharged all of a sudden we start getting default notices etc., for these fees that were never disclosed. 

It turns out that a number of these " fees '' were are supposedly connected with the bankruptcy filing. They have been sitting there for years. If these fees were part of or as a result of the bankruptcy, they should have been declared to the court. If they were after the filing, they should have been communicated to our lawyer and to the bankruptcy court as unfilled obligations before discharge. 
We have documented names, dates, call transaction numbers and other details. 

We have acquaintances ( names on request ) that also have Nationstar as their mortgage holder. They claim their accounts are mishandled in the very same way.

Complaint narrative:
I am building a new home through a home builder XXXX. They offer financing but I wanted to shop around. I contact Quicken Loans to see what they can offer and the person I spoke with was very nice. After the app I was sent a intent to proceed that I had to sign and give my credit card info. I did not want to give my credit card number but was told that if I do n't I can not proceed. I was assured by the loan rep that it will not be charged unless I cancel and Quicken Loans has already done/ordered the appraisal. Well XXXX3 week later Quicken Loans changed the loan structure without discussing with me. They changed the down payment, monthly payment, and terms without discussing with me. I called and e-mailed but no response so I cancelled the loan with them. They immediately charged my card {$500.00} for fees incurred. When I asked why they said for appraisal fees and credit fees. This is a new construction loan and the home had not even broke ground yet. I have called over 6 times to request a refund since there is nothing in writing about the fees and each person I speak with there says I need to call someone else to discuss the issue. I sent over XXXX e-mails also with no response back from the loan rep. Quicken finally refunded XXXX of the XXXX but will not refund the remaining or give me a reason for the charge or copies if the doc that I signed that gives them authorization to charge me that.

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX, 2016 Nationstar sent me a letter in CFPB case number XXXX stating they needed the following documents : new RMA ; two months proof of income ; quarterly profit and loss ; proof of occupancy. I faxed all of these documents to their modification department at XXXX promptly on XXXX XXXX, 2016 and kept the fax receipt. Nationstar responded in CFPB Case number XXXX that they, " ... uploaded these documents to my review file on XXXX XXXX, 2016 ''. 
Since then they have sent me letters stating they need the same XXXX documents on XXXX XXXX, 2016 and on XXXX XXXX, 2016. In between these letters I received a letter on XXXX XXXX, 2016, stating all that was needed for my modification review was a new Dodd- Frank Form and Proof of rental income. This can be verified in CFPB case number XXXX. I have submitted these documents as well. 
All of this pattern of fraud has happened after Nationstar requested the same document ( profit and loss statement ) five times in a XXXX month period between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I submitted profit and loss statements all 5 times which is noted in case number XXXX. 

Furthermore, Nationstar initially denied trying to foreclose on my property while under review for a modification ( dual tracking ) until I submitted proof of the sale dates to the CFPB and only then did they admitted setting sale dates in CFPB case number XXXX. Nationstar 's continued response for years is that they do not have a complete document package to review despite now admitting they have uploaded the documents they request. This is dual tracking or loan modification fraud.

Complaint narrative:
Roughly 2 years ago my wife and I filed Bankruptcy, which we did request to reaffirm the mortgage, which was with XXXX at that time, with our attorney. He filed the proper paperwork to ensure this would be completed. In a conversation with him, I understand that the courts do not necessarily push this like they do on a auto loan. The servicing was transferred to Nationstar Mortgage a little over a year ago, and we have been paying them on time since. I recently applied for credit and learned that the mortgage is not reporting on my bureaus. I have reached out to Nationstar and their response is that I did not reaffirm the debt, which is not true.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX, 2015To whom it may concern : I would like to file a formal complaint against XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, their appraiser. 

In XXXX of 2015, I made application for an FHA loan with XXXX to purchase the home I was renting. I then paid them {$480.00} for an appraisal. The appraisal was done and I received a black and white copy. Unfortunately, XXXX began asking for strange documentation, implying that I was likely laundering money, which I was not. In XXXX XXXX, I decided we were at an impasse and made application with another company. The new company, Pacific Union Fianancial, asked for the FHA case number to be assigned to them, which it was, and for a color copy of the appraisal. It took several weeks, but eventually a color copy was provided to them. 
Pacific noted thast the appraisal called for certain repairs that needed to be done. It also failed to note that the seller was paying {$4500.00} torward my closing cost. Pacific Union, my mortgage broker, and I all requested that the appraisal be corrected and a final inspection would be needed. We spoke to XXXX, XXXX, and the appraiser. Each refused to cooperate despite FHA regulations that require them to do so. Eventually, we had to pay {$450.00} for a new appraisal. 

The time lost in attempting to get what should have been provided required several rate extensionswhich caused us not to get a lender credit of {$660.00} which we would have received had XXXX and it 's appraiser followed FHA rules. In addition, we had to pay {$450.00} for a new appraisal. We believe we are entitled to damages of {$1100.00}. 

Sincerely, XXXX and XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
My wife and I have been residents of XXXX XXXX all of our lives and want to spend our retirement years in our home. We have done everything we can think of to resolve matters with our mortgage servicer, your company Nationstar mortgage, but our pleas for assistance have been ignored. We are being forced out of our home because Nationstar Mortgage can not get their process together and are failing to communicate with us properly. The servicing of our loan was transferred to them from XXXX Mortgage, but the payments we sent to XXXX XXXX Mortgage and to Nationstar Mortgage was never applied to our loan. Further, Nationstar Mortgage will not speak to us professionally regarding our mortgage and the problems they created. We are in a situation where they are going to take our home away through foreclosure, but it is n't our fault. We are hoping that you could reach out to Nationstar on our behalf and get them to speak to us. We just need a push, not for you to get involved, unless you are will to do so. 

The problem started the end of 2011 when my loan was transferred from XXXX XXXX to Nationstar Mortgage. During our time with XXXX XXXX the service was perfect, but once Nationstar Mortgage took over our mortgage issues began and now has turned into a nightmare. They lost our mortgage payments and this was the start of our problems and they are failing to recognize their errors and correct them. Nationstar Mortgage is refusing to work with us and has declined to take our partial payments. They are now demanding the full delinquency amount. This is impossible and has pushed us further and further behind and we are faced an imminent foreclosure.

Complaint narrative:
I opened a new checking account with Astoria Bank on XX/XX/2016 with an ongoing promotion. Even though I applied online I was asked to come to branch to finish account opening. Once in the branch I pretty much had to disclose all the information I already gave online again, I asked them to confirm {$250.00} bonus promotion for having direct deposit for XXXX consecutive months or XXXX bill pays/month for 3 months and they confirmed I am enrolled. They also mentioned I would receive a {$50.00} direct deposit bonus once I receive my first direct deposit. Surely I received my {$50.00} direct deposit bonus on XX/XX/2016. I kept paying bills using this account and also kept my direct deposits. Upon meeting requirements in XX/XX/XXXX I asked them when I would receive the {$250.00} bonus via a customer message and they told me that because I received a bonus already in XX/XX/XXXX I am not eligible. I explained that noone mentioned this when I was in the bank, if this was the case why was the direct deposit even an option noone would choose {$50.00} over {$250.00}. Asked them to revert the first bonus and instead give me the one I am already eligible for but I was denied. If I knew this would be case I would have avoided direct deposit all together.
