Consumer Narrative
I entered into a mortgage with First Community Mortgage also known as " AKA FCM '' on XXXX, XXXX. XXXX. My payment was {$600.00} which I paid until XXXX of XXXX. At the end of XX/XX/XXXX I received a statement from FCM stating my mortgage payment would be {$620.00} due to escrow. I contacted my insurance company to find out if my insurance went up. I was told NO that actually it went down {$68.00}. I then called XXXX XXXX Al. to find out if my taxes had gone up. I was told no that because i was XXXX I was tax exempt. I called the mortgage company in XXXX and told them that I was tax Exempt. And XXXX XXXX Al. attempted on 3 occasions to send FCM the verification of the tax exemption. On the 3rd time via a fax number XXXX XXXX was finally able to reach the tax dept for FCM. I have paid {$620.00} XXXX, XXXX, XXXX. I received a notice that my payment had been reduced to {$570.00} after I had made the XXXX payment. Since I received the notice that my mortgage was reduced due to being tax exempt I have asked to be reimbursed the over payment amount and they have refused stating any over payment i made was applied to principle which is not true for XXXX or XXXX. On my statement with a payment date of XXXX XXXX Is the first time Ive seen a '' PRINCIPLE CURTAILMENT '' in the amount of XXXX. I did not ask that {$49.00} overpayment for XXXX to be applied to principle, nor have I asked that any additional money I was told I HAD to pay be applied to anything. Ive ask for a refund. I have been asking for all overpayments to be sent back to me since XXXX. They did send a check to me for XXXX XX/XX/XXXX stating that was from overage from escrow account. This does not address the overpayment amounts. I am a older XXXX woman I live on a budget XXXX a month is a lot of money. I need help. I have documents. I can send but dont know how to upload.
