Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint on Ocwen Mortgage. On XX/XX/XXXX my ex-husband, husband at the time, and I purchased a home through XXXX XXXX for {$70000.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX we sign paperwork to sale the home with assumption through a lawyer to someone else for {$67000.00}. We asked the attorney at the time if we would still be financially obligated on the home and he stated that this would release us from financial obligations. XX/XX/XXXX, I found this company, Ocwen Loan Services, on my credit report. Since I never heard of the company I thought I would give them a call. I spoke with XXXX XXXX, Agent ID # XXXX, who told me that I was not authorized on the account. When I told her that they were on my credit report which gave me authorization on the account, she asked for some personal information to confirm my identity. She was then able to find my name in there system along with my ex-husband. XXXX XXXX stated that we were still financially responsible for this home/loan. She could not explain to me why we were still on the account, so I requested someone who could. I was then transferred to XXXX XXXX, XXXX ID # XXXX, Escalation Manager. XXXX XXXX researched the paperwork and stated that she did not know if the assumption was completed or not, but she did find the assumption paperwork and did not know what type of assumption it was. I asked XXXX XXXX why my ex-husband and I were still on the account when he nor I had no knowledge of it. I also stated to XXXX XXXX that even if we were still financially obligated, unbeknown to us, our financial obligation would have ended in 30 years, since it was a 30 year mortgage. Therefore I wanted to know why this information was showing up on our credit report after 30 years when it never showed up before now ( Of course when I informed my ex-husband about the account, he had no knowledge of it. He then checked his credit reports and found the Ocwen Loan Services were on his credit reports as well ). Our 30 years would have ended in XX/XX/XXXX according to our initial mortgage note. Therefore why is it showing up after all these years for the first time in XX/XX/XXXX. Since we sold the house with assumption in XX/XX/XXXX according to our paperwork, why is it showing up on our credit report with a balance of over {$43000.00}. We never signed anything other then the Sale with Assumption in XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX stated she did not know what was going on w this assumption and she would have to send the paperwork to the Loan Department for them to review and they would get back to me. Currently I 'm still waiting. If there is anything we can do to clarify this issue, please let us know. Whenever we talk to the company we always get a different person and end up with the same conclusion, no one knows what 's going on with this assumption and we are not authorized on the account. But we are still financially responsible for this loan according to Ocwen Loan Services.
