Consumer Complaint: I requested and was granted a loan modification from my Mortgage Servicer - Specialized Loan Servicing XXXX SLS XXXX. in XX/XX/2015. At the time my mortgage payment was {$1400.00} at a 9.0 interest rate. I desired a lower monthly payment and lower interest. Once I made the XXXX trail payments of XXXX. I was granted a permanent loan modification ( XX/XX/2015 ) with monthly payments at {$1600.00} with no lowering of the monthly mortgage or interest rate in fact, XXXX increased. Which has caused a hardship with me paying my other monthly bills.

Consumer Complaint: I applied for a mortgage loan modification with SLS, LLC. The process began over a year ago. After countless phone calls, mails and faxing of my personal information they finally approved a loan modification that was reasonable and i was able to pay it on time. They entered me into a Trial Payment program. I paid it on time every month. I was out of town when SLS, LLC claimed they mailed me some documents that i needed to sign to finalize the loan modification. I never received them, i was n't aware of such documents they did n't call me or mailed me a second notice at all. They did call me about a month ago to tell me that I no longer qualify for the loan modification program because they did n't receive the documents they claimed were mailed to me. I explained to them that I did n't receive them, i searched everywhere in my house, even went to the post office to make sure they did n't have any mail for me. I asked them to please resend the documents and i will sign them and send them back thru certified mail. The representative from SLS was very rude to me and she stated that i no longer qualify for anything at all, and that no one can help me with this and that they are going to proceed with a foreclosure on my house. She said you can fill out another request for a loan modification but that, I will be wasting my time because, I do not qualify for anything. Things happen, mail can get lost, I do n't understand why they refuse to help me, nor understand that the mail could have gotten lost. I have made and continue to make my new modified mortgage payments every month. It makes no sense that they are not willing to help me they rather take my home.

Consumer Complaint: Specialized Loan Servicing , LLC, ( SLS ) has not been working in good faith with us to process a mortgage modification for our small family farm. In fact, they have been untruthful in regard to missing documents, resulting in multiple reapplications and costly delays. After I filed a complaint with CFPB in XXXX of 2015, SLS finally offered us a Home Affordable Modification. It was processed and SLS said that they sent the finalized document to the courts for approval on XXXX,2015. They lied! Every month, they said it was in process with the courts and every month they lied. The final document from SLS still has not been received by our attorney or the court. We are just asking for a chance to be able to pay the mortgage on our farm at a reasonable interest rate. My family of XXXX generations is facing foreclosure if we can not come to some agreement.

Consumer Complaint: We had a Mortgage Loan with XXXX on our primary home. On mid XXXX we received a notification that our loan had been transfer to a different servicer, ( SLS ) Specialized Loan Service, and that we were supposed to start payments with this company on XXXX XXXX 2015.Eventhough, we are making our payments on time every month they are sending letters that we are behind, and they refuse to send us any statements. After several attempts and letters to get our statements they keep refusing to do so. We are worried, since we noticed that we are not the only ones with this problem, and that several people are complaining about this issue with SLS.

Consumer Complaint: This is the third complaint I have filed with you about this company, SLS L.L.C., or Special Loan Services, LLC. This company has so many complaints on the Consumer Services site and all are similar to the complaints I have had with them, including procrastinating on responding to customer complaints which puts extra late fees in SLS 's pockets, not reading correspondence and instead sending it back which also increases time and hence late fees, ignoring customer requests, ignoring California XXXX Laws, and it goes on and on. I have sent certified letters to the CEO and a vice president over two weeks ago and have received no action from the management or from the other people in the company. I have a mortgage, which I received due to a foreclosure and I paid over {$18000.00} wired in via XXXX XXXX to pay the arrears, which the XXXX original mortgage holders, XXXX and XXXX XXXX, accumulated because when they found out I was foreclosing on them, they stopped paying the mortgage to SLS. I contacted SLS and asked, after I faxed them my new trust deed to verify on the property at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Ca. XXXX, XXXX XXXX no. XXXX many weeks ago. I also faxed the XXXX XXXX code that supports this action-and they still refuse to put my name or release to me any information on the loan. HOW CAN I PAY THE MORTGAGE ON XXXX, 2015 IF I DO N'T KNOW HOW MUCH IS DUE?? I also had my insurance co. fax info on my new insurance and SLS refuses to acknowledge it because they continue to tack on the cost of their insurance which is expensive. This company is totally money driven, without concern to their customers. Read the complaints filed against them-they all support this. All the supporting documentation is included in this email. I feel like no one is listening. Please get back to me asap so I can take over the mortgage on this property, handle it responsibly and take care of this business acquistion.

Consumer Complaint: Two years ago I made a Trust Deed Investment to someone in a group of Real Estate Investors and I insisted that the loan be against a property in California, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Ca. XXXX,. As it turned out the investment group was involved in a XXXX scheme. I wound up foreclosing on the property because they stopped paying the interest on the loan. The XXXX loan is held by SLS llc. The XXXX loan was made to XXXX and XXXX XXXX-the people I foreclosed upon. SLS LLC refuses to put the XXXX loan in my name, even though I paid up close to {$19000.00} to get the loan current. SLS LLC keeps telling me that they will only release information on the XXXX loan if the XXXX give the ok. Because I foreclosed on them, this will never happen. SLS LLC will not accept my new insurance on the property, will not put my name on the first, and will not communicate with me. I have sent registered letters to the CEO at SLS LLC headquarters, XXXX XXXX, on XXXX, 2015 as well as XXXX XXXX , V.P at SLS LLC . I also sent a letter to SLS LLC Headquarters and faxed a copy to them just to make sure. They replied with a statement that they could not identify the associated mortgage loan with the information provided-I provided the address of the property on the first line of my letter to all of the above, i.e. the XXXX, the XXXX, the headquarters fax as well as mailed letter. XXXX XXXX received the updated trust deed information to confirm my acquiring of the property-yet they have refused to put my name on the property and the first loan. They will not even refer me to a supervisor as I have requested. They are the worst mortgage company, or any type of consumer company, that I have ever communicated with. Now I do not know how much the monthly mortgage payments are, and the mortgage is due on XXXX XXXX, 2015. WHAT AND HOW MUCH DO I SEND IN TO COVER THE MORTGAGE????? Included are trust deed affirmation in my name, the letter I sent to SLS LLC -the CEO, VP and Faxed and mailed to the company. Finally, in the letter is the civil code which shows that am legally, in the eyes of the law, the new owner of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Ca. XXXX. All this info was in the letter-yet SLS LLC stated they it was not in the letter. They did nothing to rectify this problem. I have since gone on the internet and the complaints against SLS LLC are numerous and all the people dealing with them have had similar or the same poor if totally lacking service from this company. PLEASE TAKE ACTION ON THIS COMPANY ASAP. This is my second complaint to you and have had no luck in even basic communication with this company, even though I have included my phone number in every communication, as well as address. Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Ca. XXXX XXXX

Consumer Complaint: After refinancing my home I was only given temporary payment coupons to make my payment. Once I received my first paper statement it showed a shortage of XXXX. My first statement was received on or about XXXX XXXX. I contacted XXXX, the mortgage company and attempted to correct the discrepancy, however, XXXX was in the process of selling my loan and was unable to assist me in any way and was instructed to call the new loan servicer ( SLS ) to correct any problems. SLS was unable to assist me until they processed the loan after XXXX XXXX. I contacted them again on XXXX/XXXX/2015 and XXXX and was informed that they do not have any information prior to their taking control of the loan and offered to request my statements from XXXX Mortgage to review. No statements were ever sent to me. I contacted SLS again approximately the middle of XXXX to attempt some resolution. After speaking with the agent she was able to see past payment activity and was able to locate the issue of XXXX Mortgagemisapplying my first payment causing payments to be late from that point forward. Now I am in a situation were neither mortgage company claims to have the ability to assit me in the matter. I made contact with the first mortgage company as soon as I received my first statement showing a discrepancy was sent and made me aware.
