Complaint: My mortgage loan was transferred to XXXX. During the time my loan was with XXXX, they made no real attempt or good faith effort in trying to help me make continue where I left off with XXXX. I paid XXXX over {$7000.00} ( PITI ) during the trial period. I even made two ( 2 ) additional payments because the trial was three ( 3 ) months as I made a total of five ( 5 ) payments. I sent the requested documents for a modification to XXXX several times as the representatives would say they did not get them, which I do n't understand because they were uploaded on the website. Once they finally offered a modification it was an interest only mortgage which I did not think was fair or reasonable. All I wanted was to keep the plan I previously had, approved through the XXXX program and then approved by XXXX of {$1400.00} ( PITI ). I mailed a payment of {$1400.00} and waited for someone to post my payment and it never got posted. I called XXXX and spoke with a representative and he claimed they did not get my payment, even though I mailed it to the address provided by them. Shortly after that, the mortgage was then assigned to Specialized Loan Servicing ( SLS ), without any notification from XXXX. I received a packet from SLS asking me to tell them what my balance was. I thought this to be very strange. I started to get really suspicious and began to review all my documents and letters from XXXX. In my discovery I found dates that did not make sense and I also discovered other things to be discussed with a CFPB representative and uploaded. SLS has now violated the rules issued by CFPB of " No Surprises '', SLS did not send me one bank statement and I did not hear from them for an entire year. When I was doing my research, coupled with the fact the XXXX was still filing motions in the Court further increasing my suspicion on this whole situation of " who has interest '' in the note. XXXX was filing motions and foreclosure when supposedly SLS owned the loan at the time ; this was very upsetting and confusing. Now, for the additional violations of SLS they, out of nowhere filed a motion joining the 2015 filings of XXXX, trying to make the process of foreclosure faster, all without any notification to me and without the offering of assistance. Who is this organization? Now, there is a class action lawsuit against. I have uploaded the documents files by SLS and the assignment. Please keep these documents.

Since the death of my mother in XXXX of XXXX I 've been working to try to get Specialized Loan Servicing to send me a request for Mortgage Assistance Package as they said they would. On more than several occasions they said they would send the package to me and said many times that the package was in the mail and I never received anything from Specialized Loan Servicing. And in XXXX of XXXX they started to foreclose on my house. My mother and I owned the property as Joint Tenants ; when she passed away I became the sole owner with Right of Survivorship. I 've tried to tell Specialized Loan Servicing this over and over, but they say I need to go to Probate and I 've been told by XXXX attorneys that I do n't because I own the property by Right of Survivorship.

But I 've told them I do n't want information about the loan because my mother is dead and that I just want to work this out with them, so that I can sell the house and have time to relocate, because I am XXXX ; my brother lives here and my elderly aunt and uncle live here also.

I am XXXX ; my brother lives here and my elderly aunt and uncle live here also. My real estate agent has gotten me a good offer from a Buyer.

Complaint: I had finished a " Making Homes affordable '' program here in Michigan with Specialized Loan Services ( SLS ). They received an allotment of money from the program each month and I furnished a lower version of my normal monthly premium. When the program came to an end, my mortgage went back up to its regular amount. I began making a regular payment and certainly able to do so, now that I am on retirement social security. Without notifying me ahead of time, SLS switched my mortgage back to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was notified only after the fact, when my payment was en route through the postal service. Within a very short time, ( again without prior notification ) XXXX sold my mortgage back to SLS. Again only after I had sent out another payment. I have been making steady payments with no issues, but two days ago i received a certified letter from SLS saying they are going to foreclose within thirty days, because there is an arrears of XXXX. I am enclosing copies of receipts of my payments and all letters I received.

Mortgage: Conventional fixed mortgage

Complaint: My first complaint addresses the fact that XXXX XXXX XXXX sold my mortgage loan to a company by the name of ( SLS ) Specialized Loan Servicing , LLC. However, I was never informed by XXXX XXXX XXXX of this transfer. ( SLS ) did in fact inform me of the transfer after the fact by sending me a mailed letter through regular mail XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called XXXX XXXX XXXX concerning a letter that they had sent to me stating that I had missed four payments. The representative and myself from XXXX XXXX XXXX went over my payment history and could not find these four missed payments. However, during this call ; there was no mention about of a loan transfer. As a matter of fact, the last thing she asked me was " When was I sending in my next payment ''? Also, ( SLS ) sent me a letter stating that they will foreclose on my home on XX/XX/XXXX. I have submitted the letter that was sent, and copies of my Bank statements showing all of my payments. Be informed that, UCC 3502 states that if you were late, you are in dishonor, but from the moment they accepted your payment ( cashed your check or posted payment to your account ) then it is to be treated as never being in dishonor ( never being late ). I have attached the document labeled XXXX # XXXX which is the last letter and only recent letter that was sent to me by XXXX. It mentions nothing about my loan being transferred. If XXXX XXXX XXXX claim that they informed me of the transfer ; that will be a false statement.

Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Mortgage: Conventional fixed mortgage

Complaint: I am writing to document a formal complaint against SLS and XXXX mortgage servicing companies. Recently, SLS ( Specialized Loan Servicing Company, www.sls.net ) purchased my mortgage from my previous lender, XXXX ( XXXX ). The transfer process has been very frustrating ; consumers should not be collateral damage in the loan transfer process, particularly given the fact that consumers do not consent to the buying and selling of their mortgages. This has created an incredible amount of work for me and wasted a lot of time, and this clearly has been the case for others too, as evidenced by SLS ' reviews and XXXX online. On XX/XX/XXXX, payment from SLS to XXXX went through for the remaining principle ( based on a XX/XX/XXXX calculation ) for my mortgage ; however, on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX also auto-drafted the monthly payment from my checking account. XXXX does not have record of this on my online profile and they have not forwarded this payment to SLS as both companies have said they would through the transfer process. XXXX now has sent my to a debt collector for failure to pay my XXXX payment and plans to auto-draft double my monthly payment from my checking account on XX/XX/XXXX. This is unacceptable, and has to stop. Consumers rights need to be protected during the home buying and selling process and the onus of record keeping should not fall to the consumer, the innocent bystander in this process. To make matters worse, neither LoanCare nor SLS offers customer support on the weekends. I work a very busy job with long hours and am not available to troubleshoot and clean up the mess that SLS has created during the weekdays.
