Consumer Complaint: Included in this complaint are documents to validate the various events that have taken place with Wells Fargo. This has been an ongoing issue since XXXX beginning with Wells Fargo filing an unreleased mortgage that included us in a foreclosure battle that should not have involved us, and has been ongoing and is still ongoing at present. This caused us to accumulate a debt of {$100000.00} for legal representation. In addition, there was d a discrepancy with the legal description of our property. Several modified agreements were rejected because of the discrepancy in the properties legal description although, we purchased title insurance. mortgage payments were returned and refused, We show several full release of mortgage entries with the XXXX XXXX XXXX 's XXXX, also showing that our property has been partially refinanced and we were not the individuals who refinanced it. Our credit report has shown " no-status since XXXX of XXXX which does not reflect any payments we have made on the property. Although we were told by Wells Fargo that we were not in their data base as their customer, they were said holders but could not produce the note. In XXXX, we received documentation from XXXX XXXX XXXX, appearing as mortgage server, showing where mortgage taxes and insurance had been paid into escrow by us. Because of the foreclosure process in order to keep from loosing our home were required to pay {$4500.00} up front to bring account current and {$2700.00} per month for approximately 7 months all resulting from an unreleased mortgage that was later replaced by a quiet title, however we were still held accountable to a mortgage note that had been paid. ( copy of release included in submitted documents ). We have continuously been in litigation for this same case that has now reached its limits according to the statute of limitation after we have received 3 dismissals of case in our favor. We are now experiencing what is legally described as " malicious prosecution ''. The case was first dismissed in XXXX, XXXX without prejudice, Wells Fargo filed a request to " Open to refile '' in XXXX of XXXX and it was dismissed with prejudice, again in our favor. Wells Fargo filed again on us on the XXXX of XXXX, XXXX, it was again dismissed with prejudice. We receive monthly communication from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) in regards to a Chapter XXXX Bankruptcy, in which we did NOT file. A lien has been placed against our property which prevents us from selling or refinancing our home. I pray that CFPB initiates a full investigation of Wells Fargo 's Mortgage lending practices in addition to their escrow collection practices and foreclosure procedures wrongfully against us that shows Wells Fargo has no right to foreclose according to the SECURITIZATION AUDIT initiated in XXXX, XXXX. We pray exposure, justice and recompense.

Consumer Complaint: My mortgage was owned by XXXX XXXX in XXXX. The loan was sold and then returned to XXXX. XXXX sold the loan again. This time to an alleged company called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX never contacted me. I was contacted by a " servicer '' company called Select Portfolio Servicing. From the onset, I was charged late fees and other fees not disclosed at closing. Ive never been late with a payment. Everytime I ask SPS about XXXX, Im told the same statement. XXXX owns the mortgage, SPS is the servicer. I demanded to see a copy of the note, and to have XXXX provide authorization for SPS to communicate about the loan. SPS replied with the same statement, which leads one to believe that XXXX does n't exist. A search found XXXX to be nothing more than a XXXX corporation using a bank address in Delaware. I wrote to XXXX at that address asking for documentation proving they own my mortagage and authorization for SPS to discuss this loan. SPS sends me a letter that they received my letter and will respond. I did n't write to SPS. I get a pamphlet from XXXX XXXX. It describes what a trust is and the servicer makes the decision to foreclose. This all leads to what the heck is happening with my mortgage? You cant get a straight answer out of anyone. SPS raised my mortgage payments to an amount I can not afford. My ARM went down as it has many times, but SPS raised the monthly payments. This is a common complaint made by others whose loan has been sold and is serviced by SPS. I fear Im about to lose my home because SPS continues to say Im in default even though Im never late. Ive disputed the increase in payments and all of the fees they charged which that say is for my benefit. The internet is filled with people who have lost their homes with SPS as the servicer. XXXX does n't look like a viable solution due to complaints made by others who tried only to lose their homes.

Consumer Complaint: Select Portfolio Servicing keeps delaying the processing of my modification. I sent all requested paperwork to them. They call twice weekly saying the underwriters do not have it. I tell them I know you have it because I sent myself a copy. Then they find it and say it was mislabeled or it was n't sent to underwriters. Every time it sets processing the modification back another 5-7 business days. I spoke to a manager today who said that she was escalating the processing to UW. But I have been told this 3 weeks in a row. I was told I have until XX/XX/2016 before being referred for foreclosure.

Consumer Complaint: We have been trying to find a solution to this foreclosure situation we have been facing with Select Portfolio Servicing ( SPS ) for years now. At first, they reviewed us for the XXXX programs ; then, they told us that we were not eligible due to a " business decision '' by the investor. When we questioned this repeatedly as to what that meant, we were eventually told that the investor does n't participate in the XXXX programs. Why would our income and other underwriting factors be considered if the investor does n't participate in the XXXX program? In XXXX of 2016, we were denied for the in-house program as well. However, the gross monthly income used for the review was shorted about $ XXXX/month even though all documents verifying the household income were submitted in a timely manner. We chose to resubmit a new application with very detailed verifications of income. SPS finally got the gross monthly income correct, but still denied us for any mortgage assistance, once again claiming that the investor did not allow for approval of the in-house program as well. When pressed, we were then told that the reason was actually that they could n't make an affordable payment based on the guidelines of the program. When we pressed SPS for more details such as the proposed modification payment and what terms were used to reach that proposed payment, we were eventually told that this is " proprietary information '' that they did n't want to disclose (!!! ). We have done everything asked of us to try and resolve this issue and get back on track with our mortgage, but we feel like SPS is doing everything they can to complete the foreclosure process. They have scheduled a sale date for XXXX/XXXX/16!!!! How can we not be eligible for the XXXX program when SPS has taken so much bailout money ( almost {$2.00} XXXX " committed '' )? Why wo n't SPS produce this servicing agreement that prohibits our loan from any participation in these programs? And lastly, why wo n't SPS show clearly how we do n't have enough income to be modified under the in-house program they offer others? It 's not right that these people keep misleading us as to why we can not get assistance and when we do n't just accept their denial and ask for details, SPS chooses to be secretive ( indicating they 're likely doing something wrong ).

Consumer Complaint: In XXXX my father passed away and left the house that he had a mortgage on to me in his will that went through legal probate and the house was transferred to me through the courts. My husband and I never re-financed the loan into our names for we were not informed to do so it was my thought the mortgage would be legally put into our names by XXXX who at the time has the servicing of the loan. They informed us that we could do a loan modification and then after a few months told us that was not possible because we were not on the loan, then they suggested assuming the loan and again after a few months told us the at loan was not assumable. The Truth-In- Lending only states not assumable by a buyer, we were not buyers but legal heirs by law. Then my husband and I filed Ch XXXX Bankruptcy to avoid foreclosure by XXXX. Then it was sold to Select Portfolio Servicing , Inc, and we have dealing with them now for 2 years and getting the same run around. We hired a company to help us with reconstructing the loan into our names at a lower interest rate so that we could start making payments. We were not making payments for the mortgage was under a deceased persons SS # and we would not get the interest tax break. It was not for a lack of trying to get this loan into our names. Now SPS has set a foreclosure date for XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and will not postpone even though we received a letter on the XXXX or XXXX of XXXX telling us they have receive our inquiry and would be contact with us within 20 days of receiving the information which would be the XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. After speaking with a manager of SPS along with an analyst of the company we hired to help us with this we were told the sale was going forward on the XXXX and that the letter we received is a computer generated letter that is printed whenever data is entered into the computer that new documentation has been received. This is a deceptive practice on the part of the loan servicing bank and should be illegal. This gives the people facing foreclosure false and misleading hope. Even the XXXX the analyst with the company that we hired agreed. Our house is still for foreclosure on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and SPS had the power to stop it to look over the documents and did not do so. This is wrong.

Consumer Complaint: We have a client in distress we have submitted XXXX offers to the bank we call in every week to check on the status the negotiators " are n't available '' we get have answers and are not properly informed of what is needed on the file. Everytime we send in a document the have XXXX days to review the document and if they need something further they mail the request to an empty house instead of reaching out to the attorney and individual in our office handling the file or heaven forbid telling our office what they need when we call in. We have lost XXXX buyers and about to lose a XXXX buyer because of delays and lack of ability for SPS to move forward appropriately and work with us on getting this file completed. They have no concern for the homeowner and not desire to work with the seller in getting this completed. They wo n't fax a request, call us or email us. They send their request to an empty house.

They told me i needed to send them the letters of authority. i did, called them back and they said they did not receive them. so i sent them again, called them, said they did not receive them. called them again and finally got some one to help me. they told me what i needed to send over to them and what email i needed to send it to. i did. never received a response. called them multiple times. would not talk with me. I called the estate attorney and he sent them the letter of authority four times. with a documentation of the fax going through and they received it. He also called them and they told him they did not receive it.I have tried to call them for almost three years now and still get no corporation. Now they are trying to foreclose on the house. The mortgage company is SPS select portfolio. This has been very frustrating to deal with besides the lost of my mother. I am also on the deed of the house. But not the mortgage.

Consumer Complaint: I am very devastated with all the excuses SPS has used in order to prolong my loan and all the fraudulent actions that are being used against me to deny my loan for any assistance.This needs to stop! Our monthly income is {$3000.00} and my monthly expenses are for the amount of {$2500.00}, this includes my mortgage payment. I have a surplus of {$460.00} left at the end of the month. SPS has changed my income for their own advantage and to deny my loan.I have always provided my proof of income to SPS. However, SPS keeps forcing me to re-apply all the time. I am not working nor my husband and we only collect social security income and rental income. SPS has my rental lease and my Social security award letters for proof. However this seems to not be enough proof for SPS. My husband and I are elderly people and this is starting to affect our health. We just want to save our home and fighting our right as home owners. We did not want to do this but we are just tired and we are in desperate need of assistance. I am attaching proof of the last XXXX reviews done by SPS and you will see how my income has being changed for there own advantage. Please help us to stay in our house.
