Foreclosure
September 9th, 2008
OK, so i am one of the many people plauged by the whole forclosure thing that is happening throughout the entire country. But let me just say this, i am not in forclosure because i wasn’t making my payments. See way back in May of this year, i know that was a long time ago right… anyhow, back in May i called in to make a payment to my Mortgage company, however after i scheduled my payment i assumed that everything was cool… Yeah you guessed it, it wasn’t come the 15th a payment was taken, then they tried to take another on the 19th of May, and on the 27th of May.
Thats right 3 payments in the same month. of over a 1100 dollars each.
So i call the mortgage company to tell them this is obviously not right, they tell me to write a letter explaining what was not right, and that it was an error of thier representative. So i did, and faxed it to them. Meanwhile, i am being screwed becuase i have to pay the bank back all the overdraft fees, etc. because of the mortgage company trying to withdrawl funds that are not there. (I don’t know about most of you, but i know that i am a normal person that does not have $4000.00 sitting in an account just incase the mortgage company does make a mistake like this.)
So weeks later i receive a letter from the mortgage company stating that there was no mistake, of course i became irate at this point because along with the letter i sent them i also faxed the bankstatements showing what had happened.
So i call and talk to another Customer Service Agent who argues with me for over an hour and a hlaf and decides to tell me that maybe the Research Department got confused…. so i said how could they get confused? they don’t know how to count? 1,2,3?
So i faxed another letter with the same bank statements that i had previously sent, along with the first letter, and the 3 letters i had received from them since this whole thing started.
Then after this letter magically they say yes we do owe you a refund, however the check they sent was considerably less than what was owed to me, put it this way, it may have been 2% of what was owed to me.
Anyway, as you could guess becuase i am this normal person i am still trying to pay the bank off for what the morgage company had done to me. so i deposited the small, very small check into the account.
I contacted the mortgage company again, and now they don’t have enough information… evidently they don’t know how to file either. So i started thinking… while i was being ridiculed by the Customer Service Representative on the other end of the phone, that i was getting an attorney… so i told the lady who was degrading me (becuase you know i am an ungratefule person who doesn’t like to make my payments) that i was getting an attorney, and then she asked me if i could make a payment. I almost died laughing….. i said, excuse me but i would have made a payment if i didn’t have to give the bank back all the money that you people had overdrawn me. She said so your not going to make a payment? i said welll NOOO!! i don’t have the money to now, and further more i will not make a payment until this is resolved and you will be hearing from my attorney.
Ok, so i got an attorney, we drafted letters, showed exhibits, and of course accused them of fraud, we filed that and sent it to the Corporate Office, about 3 weeks later i am served by a Sheriff’s Officer with Foreclosure papers.
We drafted answers to that and filed them as well.
Then i was offered to reinstate my loan or a loan modification, but to no avail with in a week (no time to answer that) the attorney was sent papers stating that they filed for Summary Judgment.
So now here we set, trying to do a loan modification, and they are persuing a judgment….
I hate to rant but does anyone have any advice?
