Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/2016, I answered an Internet email advertisement about getting a Mortgage on line. I was also talking to a local company about a Mortgage and should have stayed with them. When XXXX of the Representatives from The Loan Depot contacted me ( an Internet Mortgage Company ), I decided to give them a try because of their excellent promises of " getting it done in 30 days ''. I had been warned about on line Mortgage Companies, but these people are good ... .and they talked me into going with them. The process dragged on and on and on ... ... and I really do n't think that Loan Depot steals money from anyone, they just promise money back and credits on your closing costs as long as you do what they say ... ... and then the approval process begins. Now that they have everything you can imagine about yourself, including pictures of your personal items in the home ( proving that you really live in the home ), it drags on and on and on. When they XXXX up, they ignore you. When you drag your feet, Loan Depot gives you the " death promise '' ... ... if you do n't do this or that, you are out, this loan is over. The problem with this loan was that I was coached to say things, send in items that did not exist ( which I did not send ) and then they just NEVER get it approved!! The real confusing thing was that I was told that the Loan was approved, we got a call from XXXX different sources, the Title people and the Insurance people telling us to get ready for the closing ... .and then silence ... ..nobody is returning calls and you start getting the run around. Then, on a Saturday, when they do n't think you are going to answer their phones ( because they are always phone numbers that are blocked ... .DO NOT SAY LOAN DEPOT, like good companies have on their caller ideas ) and you do answer and they tell you at the last minute, this loan is not approved at what amount you needed, but we will approve another lower amount. I told them to go for it, and once again, they started putting me through the " approval process '', unbelievable. So, after almost 90 days of Loan Depot 's promises, NOTHING ... ..and then finally a " this loan can not be done, because you wo n't give us what we need, which is items that are impossible to give them ''!! CONSUMERS, go with your gut, but DO NOT use Loan Depot or any on line Mortgage Company. If you can not go somewhere and look at these people across the desk and make them responsible for what they say, DO NOT play their game. They promise the moon and deliver nothing. Even though, they represent that they do thousands of loans a week ... ... and maybe they do. Nice people, big promises, NO RESULTS!! PS I went back to my local Mortgage Banker, locally, and they are closing on my loan next week for the full amount I needed. Thank you CFPB for allowing us, as consumers to get word out on these kinds of companies.
