Consumer Narrative
I believe that Freedom Mortgage Company has retaliated against me when I pushed back and demanded to speak to a supervisor to better understand why they kept needing additional documentation in order to assume my existing mortgage after my divorce. My loan assumption application began on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX when they sent me a package by overnight mail to fill in within 10 days. After months of waiting then starting and stopping, my application went from conditional approval status on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX to denied by at XXXXXXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX was a federal holiday when I received an email requesting additional documentation with no explanation for why more was needed after I had provided numerous sets of documents all within 1-2 days after request. Despite numerous requests, Freedom never justified their demands for an explanation how I planned pay out my ex-husbands share of the equity. Freedom Mortgage personnel failed over and over to answer my questions and repeatedly acted like I was living beyond my means, despite a credit score of XXXX and more than adequate income to pay my bills. I requested to speak to the people processing the loan for an explanation, then I requested and later demanded to speak to a supervisor with no success. I was on hold and tried to speak to supervisory personnel for over an hour on 2 separate days. I work from XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, because they would not speak to me outside of business hours I have had to take days and partial days off to deal with this matter. I firmly believe that Freedom Mortgage would not treat a man in the manner that they have treated me, asking for documentation receiving it with valid justification from me and requesting more and more documentation. Finally, retaliating when I pushed back requesting to speak to a supervisor and refusing to provide personal financial information through unencrypted email. I have since learned that most financial institution have a portal or will use an encrypted email to exchange sensitive documentation.
