Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX offered us a trial payment we excepted it an made payments on time for three months, per our agreement. Later we received a letter saying that we have been reassigned to a new services ( Fay Servicing , LLC ) we sent a modification package to them and when ever we call them it is always in review and there is never any new information. Then they cancel the review process and require us to send a new package for yet another review. Then right before the sale date they cancel the review and begin transferring us to yet another services ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) who will only begin working on our loan on the XXXX XXXX XXXX and the current servicer ( Fay Servicing , LLC ) has no time to accept and begin reviewing a new modification package and the sale date is on XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Verification of documents : Lenders that record and file multiple unverified documents will be subject to a civil penalty of up to {$7500.00} per loan in an action brought by a civil prosecutor.
