Consumer Complaint: Hi, my name is XXXX XXXX. I live in XXXX, CA. My property is XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CA XXXX. I have a very serious problem going on right now. I have a sale date scheduled for my home on XX/XX/2017. My servicer now is Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing, a division of New Penn Financial, LLC. My previous servicer was XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ( XXXX ). I was under a loan modification review with XXXX and out of nowhere I receive a letter from Shellpoint Mortgage saying they are the new servicers while after receiving that letter I was still getting correspondence from XXXX for a very long time. I was very confused as to who was the real servicer was. That put me in a very bad stop because I never received goodbye letter from XXXX saying they have transferred my loan to another company. I was scared what if this Shellpoint mortgage was a scam company asking for my documentation. Back when the crisis happened my business went down. I lost my job and my income. I could not pay my mortgage. After a while I got back up on my feet. Found a job, my income got getter and increased. But it was still not enough to pay my mortgage so I turned to apply for a loan modification with the bank at that time. I got approved, they gave me a trial period payment it 's a three payment process. I paid, but as soon as I made the 3 payments in a course of three months they sold me to another bank, that bank did the same thing three payments and then sold me. Now I 've been working with XXXX XXXX XXXX for over four years now. It 's always a game with them. I apply, send them all requested documents, wait send more documents, wait, then a sale comes up, I XXXX out, I XXXX, I give them everything and they still try to sell the home. I already am exhausting all my energy. I want to keep my home, I want to pay my mortgage but can not because I never get offered anything. How much longer will I have to wait and keep this going? 1 year? 3 years? Will I ever get a chance to pay my mortgage at an affordable monthly payment? A loan modification is supposed to help me but I ca n't even get an offer. I now have a Sale date that is scheduled for XX/XX/2017 and I 'm scared that they will sell my home after all these years trying and me and my family will be left out on the streets. I called Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing and they said they have received all my documents but they can not talk to me other than their legal team. I asked for them to give me the legal teams contact information they said that someone will call you in 5 business days. By that time my home will be sold. I need to talk to someone now. No one will talk to me and they said that I do not have a single point of contact. I believe they have and are violating my Homeowner Bill of Rights.

Consumer Complaint: I have a Home Equity Line of Credit which was extended by XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX collected my payments in behalf of XXXX. My loan was sold to XXXX Bank XXXX, as Trustee for XXXX Mortgage Loan XXXX ( XXXX Bank XXXX ) and my payments are being collected by Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing in behalf of XXXX Bank XXXX. The servicing was transferred from XXXX to Shellpoint in XXXX 2016. My loan is on automatic draft from my checking account. In XXXX Shellpoint drafted {$3000.00} when the payment should have been approximately {$2700.00}. In XXXX Shellpoint drafted {$2200.00} when it should have been approximately {$2700.00}. In XXXX they drafted {$1000.00} when it should have been approximately {$2700.00}. In XXXX they have scheduled a payment of {$700.00} when it should be approximately {$2700.00}. They are not collecting my payments as set out in my note. I have a great concern that they are going to draft a lump sum of approximately {$6500.00} to correct their error. I spoke with their representative who told me this is a " known problem '' and my loan should be " re-calibrated '' within XXXX to 6 months. Based on what they have collected, {$6900.00}, and what they should have collected, {$10000.00}, they will have to collect a lump sum payment of approximately {$3800.00} plus a regular payment of {$2700.00} which would result in drafting approximately {$6500.00} which will created a serious hardship for me. If this continues as it is now, the lump sum will be much higher. I am certainly not the only customer of Shellpoint that is going to have this problem. They should be sanctioned and fined for their unacceptable business practices and should not be allowed to draft more than what the correct payment should be going forward.

Shellpoint has all documents they asked me for including but not limited to all of my income proof as well as my sons non borrower auth form and his income proof. For weeks I have been in active review even the XXXX and Deed are in my name. Now at the XXXX hour XXXX days prior to my sale date WHILE i am in active review, Shellpoint states I need to file documents in XXXX. I am XXXX years old why did n't Shellpoint tell me to do this in the beginning of XX/XX/XXXX. I would have done what they asked. Now XXXX days before the sale, while all along lying to me and stating that my review is active and the sale WILL postpone, they are asking me for the impossible and they are now refusing to postpone the sale. So if they needed probate documents from the beginning, they SHOULD have never accepted my package and lead me down the wrong path. I pray you help me I want to die in this home, I dont have much time left on this earth please do n't let my last experience be with this bank defrauding and lying to me to steal my home under false pretenses. XXXX BLESS YOU

Consumer Complaint: Shellpoint mortgage incorrectly paid our taxes twice in XXXX of 2016, which in turn sent our escrow payment to double what it should be. We had to struggle to get the overpayment refunded to our account, that finally happened in XXXX 2016. Now they are not able to get the tax payment schedule figured out ( either paying taxes twice a year or once a year. ) In turn our escrow payment is still double what it should be, which is resulting in a much higher payment than we should have. After repeated phone calls since XXXX, there has been no solution. Our XXXX payment is still {$600.00} higher than it should be. XXXX admits there is a problem, but says that a third party handles taxes and escrow for them and is n't sure why this has not been resolved.

Consumer Complaint: Since XXXX XXXX, I was in an active modification review with XXXX. As of XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, XXXX had a full package with the underwriting team and prior to that we were informed that the loan would be transferred to Shellpoint on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. Prior to the transfer from XXXX, XXXX assured that I had a full package which meant that the sale date would postpone and that Shellpoint would take on the file just as it left. After speaking to XXXX in XXXX, they stated it would take time for the documents to be reviewed and only on XXXX XXXX, XXXX were we told that ALL documents had to be in on their forms. We provided Shellpoint all new documents with corresponding proof only to be told on XXXX XXXX, XXXX that more docs were needed. I provided all documents and today I was told tht my income of {$10000.00} does not qualify for HAMP?! HAMP is not even an approved program then the point of contact said I do not qualify for any programs, so I mentioned will I receive a DENIAL letter so I can appeal the decision and he stated NO. This is classic example of dual tracking how cn this servicer take a file from another servicer as a full package then take 4 weeks to review and just on the eve of the sale state I dont qualify for any programs including a NON-EXISTENT program like HAMP? Please help I have over XXXX equity in my home and they are not playing fair I have complied with all that was requested of me

Consumer Complaint: I have owned my home for 20 years and am facing foreclosure due to the fact that the current holder of the mortgage, Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing, refuses to allow me the opportunity to negotiate or compromise or work towards any type of reasonable solution. They are denying me access to government and in house programs that I believe that I qualify for, they have refused to assign a dedicated contact to work with me, and when I try to call them to work towards resolution they say they are not responsible for what the past holders of this loan did wrong. I am essentially told that I unless I offer them one lump payment for the full reinstatement of the loan that they have no interest in speaking with me and that I need to talk to the foreclosure attorney. I am a self employed real estate developer and I make a decent living. In 2008 when the market crashed I, like millions of other Americans began struggling and was not able to keep up with my obligations. As a result, I fell into a foreclosure status and began trying to work things out with my lender at that time, XXXX. After trying to get XXXX to work with me I ended up negotiating a lump sum payment of {$25000.00} in order to postpone my sale date and work towards restructuring or modifying my loan. However, despite this large payment on my part, XXXX did not work with me towards this goal and instead my loan got transferred to XXXX. While at XXXX I tried once again to start the process towards restructuring or modifying my loan, but was unable to make any progress. Believe me, it was not for lack of effort. When I would finally get someone on the line from XXXX they would tell me that there " were no options, and that I needed to reinstate the loan or they were going to foreclose. '' I believe that XXXX was denying me access to government and in house programs that were set up to help people such as myself. Since the loan has gone to Shellpoint, I have run into the same issues. The agents are telling me there are no options other than full reinstatement and that my issues I had in the past with XXXX and XXXX are MY problem, not theirs. I believe that Shellpoint is denying me access to government and in house programs that should be made available to a struggling homeowner such as myself. I am employed and can afford a reasonable mortgage payment. I realize that I am delinquent on this loan, but I want to be presented with options OTHER than full reinstatement in one lump sum. I believe that Shellpoint is violating the government rules relating to their receipt of bailout money from the taxpayers and that I am entitled to a fair and transparent review of my current and correct financial information so that I can be considered for restructuring or modifying my loan. To date this has not occurred.

Consumer Complaint: I am in default on a mortgage made originally to XXXX then purchased by XXXX. I was working with XXXX on a Short Sale on the subject property due to financial difficulties. During the Short Sale process the loan was sold to Shellpoint Mortgage. I understood the need to begin the Short Sale process over again and did so. Completed paperwork XXXX times as each time due to Shellpoints delay the paperwork had to be updated. Was approved for the Short Sale then Shellpoint held up the process. Buyer walked a way in frustration. Then agreed to do a Deed in Lieu. This last action was agreed to over XXXX months ago. Shellpoint provided a list of items they required for the Deed in Lieu. We met each condition. One condition was to remove all tenants from the property so that they could take over the property with their own management team. We vacated the property which meant no income coming in. This was over XXXX months ago and Shellpoint has yet to move on the Deed in Lieu. Only stating to us that paperwork is in process. Shellpoint is adding interest and property management fees to the total owed each month. They refuse to communicate via email or in person. They do not answer their phone and require you to leave messages which they do not return. If they call they do not leave a message. They only send a monthly statement with fees added to the amount owed. We are willing to do the Deed in Lieu or Foreclosure but they refuse to move with regard to completing the process. We are at a loss on what to do. This is very frustrating to say the least. Do n't know where to turn or how to move on.
