Issue: Trouble during payment process — Payment process
Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
We successfully applied for a secondary loan from the mortgage company holding our primary home mortgage. Four months into repayment, we realized the interest/principal allocations were very odd and called the company. They realized the secondary loan had been incorrectly onboarded as a Daily Simple Interest loan instead of a fixed rate loan. This was corrected but in the loan maintenance process to reallocate the first four payments, the company unapplied all four loans but did not quickly reapply them. Their own default department, apparently unaware of our situation, began foreclosure proceedings. Panicked, we made a {$1200.00} payment on XX/XX/year>, representing three months ' worth of payments. While the other payments were eventually reposted with correct interest/principal allocations and dates, the XX/XX/scrub>XXXX XXXX XXXX  payment was not. Based on our payment history in our account portal, we believe the company broke this extra payment into three equal amounts and applied them as interest-only payments for XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I can't think of any scenario where an interest-only payment would be needed, and since we were not in default or behind in our payments, we believe those amounts should have been applied as principal-only payments. We tried to get the company to investigate the account and explain how it handled the payments the way it did, but after several months have not received a response.
