Complaint: XX/XX/19 I faxed my request to close my escrow account. I currently qualify for property tax exemption and on this day I sent them the documents from the County of XXXX XXXX- Office of the Assessor, proof that my property is now tax exempt and will continue to be exempt as long as I file every year for it. However, since then they were not able to close the escrow because I was a payment behind, which I have made that payment since then. I was told that after the payment was made they would close out my escrow payment. I later received a letter in the mail that my escrow closure request was not approved, that I did not qualify. I called into customer service at Select Portfolio Services and was told that my paperwork needed to be reviewed by another department. I later received another letter that my request to close my escrow account was denied. For the XXXX payment I made my payment, minus the escrow.
I am simply trying to get them to process the request to close the collection of fees for my property taxes. I was told by a County of XXXX office assessor that if someone from SPS called them XXXX that they could also verify my status as exempt for my property taxes.

Complaint: I am a XXXX XXXX with major health problems. I have had a severe reduction in income and I am struggling to stay afloat. My servicer, SPS, has categorically denied my requests for a mortgage modification. There answer to my reasoning is that my mortgage owner, XXXX XXXX XXXX and the mortgage holder, XXXX Bank does not permit modifications. So if XXXX is still the owner, why would they inform me years ago that my mortgage was being sold to SPS? Where does XXXX Bank fit in this scenario?
Why is it when I apply to SPS for a modification, I am offered 2 options, " short sale or deed in lieu of foreclosure? Why is SPS so XXXX-bent of me being out of my home? I have lived here 24 years, 6 months!
I feel as if SPS, supposedly defunct Accredited and XXXX Bank should be included with XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX, because I believe that have engaged in and continue to engage in a financial crime spree that violates every law and rule imaginable. I feel as if SPS decisions are based on race and finances. These foreclosures are destroying ethnic neighborhoods. There are at least 10 foreclosed properties on my block alone and they want to add my home to the list! These companies refuse to work with a homeowner and prefer to foreclose and wait on an investor, who typically waits until the property sells for pennies on the dollar. I am appalled at the freedom at which these companies operate but then again they are fined and it is back to business as usual ... " Let 's get back to work on finding another unsuspecting XXXX to swindle ''! They are prolific in the crimes and the government seems to be oblivious to it or simply does not care!

Complaint: My bankruptcy case has been dismissed and I just asked SPS to send me a modification. Instead of sending me a modification package they threatened me to short sale my home.

SPS is not sending me a loan modification packs because I am XXXX. I have contacted my attorney and I have placed SPS under investigation.

Complaint: I have had a very difficult time with SPS - Select Portfolio Servicing. I tried 2x 's to do a loan modification. I told by SPS the investor will not do a loan modification, its not allowed. I was then told I was approved to do a short sale. My Realtor has submitted the documents to start the process. SPS needed to do an appraisal, which was completed on XX/XX/2019. I found out the same day SPS placed a sale date of XX/XX/2019. That's in less than 30 days. SPS told me and my Realtor they would allow 60 days for marketing to sell the house. Once again, SPS lied. How can SPS be allowed to start the short sale process, and then place a sale date on me to force me into foreclosure.? Isn't that illegal in the state of California?

Complaint: XXXX of XXXX I applied for a Home Equity Line of Credit that was approved. Part of that HELOC required that I pay off the PACE loan on my home. When the HELOC provider paid the PACE loan they also paid the XX/XX/XXXX property tax bill. The following day my 1st Mortgage with Select Portfolio Servicing paid the same property tax bill. XXXX County Tax Collector mailed the duplicate payment back to Select Portfolio Serving on XX/XX/XXXX. Select Portfolio Servicing has verbally confirmed they have received the returned property tax payment. It does not show up in my escrow balance. I requested on XX/XX/XXXX to close my escrow account to try to get this over payment back. The escrow department has confirmed they sent the check to the cashier department XX/XX/XXXX. I have called Select Portfolio Servicing 6 times to get this money refunded. Every time i call i get the same answer : " I have emailed the escrow department to have them look into this and no sir we are not allowed to call the escrow department '' .Currently the refund of the property tax payment is {$8200.00} that i have not received back and the balance in my escrow account that was closed on XX/XX/XXXX is {$3300.00}. Select Portfolio Servicing is telling me they will not send my escrow balance until XX/XX/XXXX but that will only be the {$3300.00} and no one can tell me when i will get the refunded property tax part. The customer service people are very polite but don't get anything done. Can someone please help???
I have spoke to XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and someone the the last name XXXX as Select Portfolio Servicing. Can at least one of them do their job???

Complaint: As of XX/XX/XXXX my husband deceased and I was left with no household support because he was the person on the account and he was the person covering the household expenses and I was not able to take care of the Mortgage Payments due to my husband deceased and left alone with a great financial hardship and this caused me to be in deep XXXX and great stress. I decided to request help for a loan modification to Select Portfolio Servicing and as I was in reviewed it took a great long time to get my social security updated on their system it took months to correct my name and my social security number. This lender had the wrong information of my identity. I provided a notarized affidavit with my name and social security number and this caused a delay my modification review, when they finally reviewed I was offered a Repayment Plan with a amount that I was not able to afford over {$6000.00} every month and that is an outrageous amount. I will never be able to afford that kind of payment and this is why I am presently into a Foreclosure status. I have a Trustee Sale coming up on XX/XX/XXXX and I need your help to prevent for Select Portfolio Servicing to foreclose on the only roof I have. I have no where to leave they will cause me into a great burden. Please help me get this lender to provide me a better workout solution to keep my home. I am only asking for an affordable mortgage payment, I have my income plus my rental income and if necessary I can provide my daughters income but please help me save my home.

Problem with personal statement of dispute
Complaint: I was a victim of a fire that destroyed my home in XXXX of 2018. Months later I am trying to buy a new home and am having a hard time because my previous mortgage company ( Select Portfolio Servicing ) reported that I had a payment 90 days late. I have proof that the forbearance plan they gave me after the fire was followed, as well as payments made for the most recent two payments prior to the date of loss in the fire. They refuse to remove the 90 day late payment even though it's not valid. There is no 30, or 60 day showing on my credit, only the 90 day. They say it's because XXXX, XXXX and XXXX payments weren't made, but the forbearance agreement stated there was no payment due for those months and the balloon payment was due in XXXX. The insurance paid off my mortgage at Select Portfolio Servicing on XX/XX/XXXX, so the loan was paid off prior to the balloon payment being due. I have called and written to the company several times along with my new mortgage lender between XXXX and XXXX. The last conversation was with my new mortgage lender and them on XX/XX/XXXX. They still refused to remove the late payment even though they can not explain why it's on my credit. I am legally XXXX and my wife and I are elderly. Not only have we been through a devastating fire and loss of our home, but now we are having an issue getting a new home because of this company.

Complaint: I had an impound account with XXXX XXXX. In XX/XX/2019, I was contacted by SP Servicing Company. They now have my account from XXXX XXXX.
This is a SERVICE company in Utah. If I do not accept automatic withdrawals, I have to pay to pay. If you pay through the online service, there is a fee, if you pay over the phone there is a fee, if you pay through the website there is a fee. US postal is available but if it arrives late, I will be charged even larger fee.
I don't want a service company. This is awful and very difficult. I have no records of anything.

Complaint: This is a follow up to complaint XXXX.
In response to my complaint against SPS ( Select Portfolio Servicing , Inc. ) they sent me a letter stating I am in default on my loan.
Not only is this completely false, it is punitive and retaliatory and completely unacceptable.
It appears that SPS is demanding that we pay our entire mortgage in full by XX/XX/XXXX, which is not going to happen. I am submitting my timeline with this incredibly inept loan servicer which has completely screwed up my loan from day one, along with the new threatening letter.
Looking at more than 1200 complaints against this company on the CFPB site, it's pretty clear we'll be needing a lawyer.

Whereas we have found a document that has the information concerning where to send the Conditional Payment or Tender of Payment thereto said address of Select Portfolio Servicing Inc.

( This is in direct reference to the March 9, 1933 act and presidential proclamation 2039, where a NATIONAL ECONOMIC BANKING EMERGENCY was declared, facilitating the serious emergency that Congress has stated is still extant )? In the administration of all government business economy had become urgent because of lessened revenues and the heavy obligations to be issued in the hope of relieving widespread distress. Congress was without power to reduce expenditures by abrogating contractual obligations of the United States. To abrogate contracts, in the attempt to lessen government expenditure, would be not the practice of economy, but an act of repudiation.
