XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX checked website XX/XX/XXXX - schedule meeting with XXXX Said my package was complete XX/XX/XXXX and that they have 30 days from that date to give an answer. Told me that if I made the payment by the last day of XXXX they would not report my account to the credit bureau for being late but i would/could get a late fee. Wanted to discuss refinancing options, explained that I was not interested in refinancing with PHH because I had tried that many years ago and like this situation requirements/processes changed every I reached out to them and that I tried for more than 30 days with no progress and gave up. Tried to tell me that my taxes went up XXXX dollars and that my mortgage increased over XXXX dollars a month because of the escrow account. I explained that one of my many phone calls to them was because i received notice that {$97.00} was added to my principal ( Some time between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX PHH reported to XXXX that my mortgage balance increased. ) and when i called PHH i was told that was because my taxes were XXXX dollars more than my escrow- he insisted no money was added to my principle and that my taxes had gone up by the XXXX. I told him what would i need to do to cancel the escrow account so I could afford my payment- he said i would submit a form, they would have 10 days and may not allow me to cancel my escrow account because of modification. I said if they dont give me the modification then there is no reason to have the escrow account and without it I would be able to make my payments. Asked if I made or would be making XXXX payment XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX reviewed PHH statements going back to XX/XX/XXXX. There was no increase in principal ( Although PHH reported that to the credit bureaus ), the difference between my taxes and escrow was XXXX and my escrow payment increases by XXXX dollars not XXXX XX/XX/XXXX email reminder of XXXX appt with XXXX not XXXX XX/XX/XXXX started call with consumer site - directed to hope hotline- hope hotline set up three way call with PHH to try and get clarification - phh would only provide general information. XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX reviewed site, phone logs emails XX/XX/XXXX called phh no updates- they need more time Asked if I made or would be making XXXX payment XX/XX/XXXX called phh - notified me that they sent me a letter stating investors are requesting a valuation of property - they need more time- should be resolved XXXX week of XXXX Asked if I made or would be making XXXX payment XXXX appt call not with XXXX although he is my person. need more time just received initial summary valuation from XXXX party but now waiting on word from investors - not underwriting. Asked about timeframe - was told he has 12 years experience multiple times during the call = what do you mean - how much longer 30 days, XXXX months a week? Well it is a third party company dont know when we will get full report, but the initial valuation is XXXX should be no more than a week, possibly two. Lets say three to be safe. Expressed my concerns that now the next notification I would get from them is oh we need new documentation because yours is out dated. No no you are misunderstanding i have 12 years experience, there is nothing else needed from you but we can not move until the property valuation is received and investors decide, then underwriting creates offer. Next rep appt scheduled for XX/XX/XXXX earliest available for my person but if he is not available another experienced rep will be calling. Assured me again that if there are any changes i will be notified by call and in writing ( have yet to have them leave a voice message- they call and hang up- I see it on the caller id that they called. ) Asked if I would be making XXXX payment. XXXX still have not received letter regarding valuation that was mentioned in phone appt. Erroneous report to XXXX regarding an increase in my mortgage principal still has not been fixed.
