Consumer Narrative
My recent mortgage was underwritten by XXXX Mortgage ( BHM ) for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). During the application, we advised XXXX that we intended to make a large payment to the principal amount shortly after closing and seek a recast of the payments. We were advised by XXXX that we could do this at any time. Shortly after we closed and before we had made a single payment, our loan was apparently purchased by XXXX and servicing transferred to Specialized Loan Servicing ( XXXX ). When I called XXXX to do the recast, I was told that I would have to " apply '' for the recast, pay a {$500.00} fee, and that it could not be done according to XXXX 's internal policy until after 90 days had elapsed from closing. I spoke to XXXX and this is not a requirement it imposes, but seems to be imposed by XXXX at its volition in an attempt to generate fee and interest income by charging unwarranted amounts to consumers. It is not disclosed in any of the documents I received from XXXX, XXXX, or XXXX. This seems to me to be an unfair practice under the XXXX XXXX XXXX as it causes substantial ( financial ) injury ( in my case, I estimate more than {$2000.00} ) ; it is not reasonably avoidable as it is not disclosed prior to closing ; and its benefit is not outweighed by the harm it caused me and potentially numerous other consumers.
