Consumer complaint received 2024-05-30 00:00:00
Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Private mortgage insurance (PMI)
Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I first requested a PMI removal appraisal in the XXXX of XXXX. At the time, the XXXX XXXX required was 80 %. After PHH MortgageXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX sent their appraiser, it was determined the value of my house did not meet the threshold. I don't remember the exact number and it's not listed in any letters, but over the phone they told me the house appraised for somewhere in the XXXX. At the time, I knew this was low for my area. For context, I live in a community of XXXX of the exact same house, all built in XXXX, and my neighbors recently sold for upwards of {$1.00} XXXX, which would have more than exceeded the threshold I needed for my XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a packet detailing the comps this appraiser used, and she said it was a townhome when it is actually a single family home on a small lot subdivision. She also listed XXXX as year built, when in fact the complex was built in XXXX but my own house wasn't completed until XXXX ( see homeowner 's insurance quote ). I believe the appraiser used the wrong comps. The bank told me I could appeal after 90 days, so I did. 

The new appraisal took place XX/XX/XXXX, and I was told over the phone it appraised for XXXX. This is closer to the amount I think it's worth, but it still doesn't equal the price my neighbors with the same home got, nor does it match up with the comps in the neighborhood I had my realtor XXXX XXXX put together ( attached ). Additionally, the goal posts were moved between last fall and now, and apparently XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX now requires 75 % XXXX. This seems unfair to the consumer and quite honestly, a scam that the appraisal for my house was so dramatically different between now and last fall, and the required XXXX XXXX raised in the same interim. 

As the CFPB, I ask you to intervene and protect the consumer from these predatory practices. I still have yet to receive a quote as to what amount I would need to pay off to make my XXXX 75 %, despite having requested this weeks ago and being promised a mailed response by XX/XX/XXXX. ( I know PHH keeps a call log if you're interested in specific dates these phone calls and emails happened ). For every day that goes by, I'm this much closer to needing to continue to pay $ XXXX in the next PMI installment, not to mention the fact I've already spent {$380.00} on appraisal fees.

It's based on accurate info, and I'm not trying to deceive or manipulate the situation.

Company: Future Judgement Solutions
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
The company called stating they had a debt owed to a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. We informed them that I did not have a credit card with that bank. They then said the credit card was likely closed in XXXX, but could not give us an exact date. We informed them that in or around XXXX another company attempted to collect for the same card and were not able to prove the card belonged to me. The case was dismissed by the courts over 20 years ago. They then threated to sue in the local courts. This case is known to be time barred and was not verifiable over 20 years ago as it was not a card I have ever possessed. They lost the original court case due to lack of verification of the debt and time barred debt. They refused any other information unless we agreed to payments. They did scam us into verifying his dob or they would not give us any information. We told them not to contact us again.
