Consumer Complaint: We have been trying to get the remaining funds from our insurance claim for 2 months now. The final inspection was handled on XX/XX/XXXX, but we had two additional checks sent to loancare that were posted to our account on XX/XX/XXXX. I submitted a XXXX complaint on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX we received two calls. 1st call indicated they were escalating the request for a 2nd inspection and the 2nd call indicated they would be issuing a payment in 5 business days. To date, neither has happened. No inspection and they have not released the remaining funds from our insurance claim.

Consumer Complaint: My mortgage company is called XXXX XXXX XXXX/ My Loancare. Ever since our mortgage was sold to them 2.5 years ago, they consistently do not pay our property taxes on time which results me in having to call and beg them to pay on a quarterly basis. Every 3 months like clockwork we receive mail from our town stating our tax payment is overdue and we are being accessed late fees, or even worse, that our home will be " advetised and sold under the provisions of N.J.S.A 54:5.19 ET SEQ, which governs the enforcement of the collection of all unpaid taxes ''. We have more than enough cash in our escrow account, there is no reason why they shouldn't be paying our tax bills on time. Our tax bill this quarter was due on XX/XX/XXXX. We reached out to them first on XX/XX/XXXX and asked them to pay, then again on XX/XX/XXXX when we received the tax sale notice. The assured me they would and would send the check overnight. We get a call today saying they sent the check via regular mail on XX/XX/XXXX and could not confirm it was paid. When we called our city 's tax department, they verified they have not received the payment. They said my taxes have been sold and there is now i lien on our property. Now our credit score 's are damaged because of this company 's inability to pay a simple tax bill for us. We are sick and tired of fighting with them every 3 months about the same exact thing.

Consumer Complaint: Last year XX/XX/XXXX my city replaced my sidewalk. The bill for the replacement was added to my winter tax bill which increased my taxes from {$87.00} to over {$1600.00}. I was well aware that this would cause a shortage in my escrow therefore increasing my payment per month. Upon receiving my escrow analysis statement I realized Loancare was still anticipating paying {$1600.00} the following year XX/XX/XXXX. I called and explained the situation at which time I was told to send in my tax statement to have this corrected. I sent in my tax statement, HIGHLIGHTED the tax amount and wrote ( with arrows ) what happened and to please adjust my tax collection and run a new analysis. A new analysis was ran but the tax amount was still set at {$1600.00}. I called again but there was an extensive hold time so I decided to leave it be for now and consider it a savings account until XX/XX/XXXX. Winter tax statements became available XX/XX/XXXX, I attached a copy of my XX/XX/XXXX statement requested my taxes be adjusted and a new analysis ran. The taxes were not adjusted AGAIN an analysis was ran and my account still shows I have a shortage. I called was transferred twice and was told I need to submit a written request. How many requests does it take to get this right?!

Consumer Complaint: Loancare LLC began servicing my mortgage as of XX/XX/2018. I received a letter via USPS dated XX/XX/XXXX containing a XXXX form with information fields populated containing personally identifiable information including my name, address, SS # and mortgage loan account number. Loancare wanted this form signed then mailed back via USPS. All this information can be used to access the account via telephone. This is likely a violation of numerous regulations including the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act among others. I called Loancare to express my concern over their disregard of customer data protection and requested to speak with several executive managers by name over the compliance and data security practice areas. Loancare would not connect the call and instead gave misleading information about sending such data via US mail with no regard for protection.

Consumer Complaint: I have my current loan for my1st house with XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Loancare ). I have been paying promptly my payments for the past 2 years. In order to get rid of my PMI, I have been following their instructions and as per they letter, it states : " If you would like to pursue a cancellation of PMI based on the current value of your property, an appraisal is required to determine if your LTV has reached 80 % or less ''. I have requested the appraisal, paid for it, and the LTV is now at 79 % for the past 4 months. Since I didn't have 2 full years of loan payment, they have asked me to contact back in XXXX ( never understood this, but anyway ). I have contacted them, and now they state over the phone : since you had an appraisal done, the LTV has to reach 75 %. On a new letter sent to me they are advising me I need an appraisal and LTV has to be 80 % or less. I have asked a few other brokers and accountant and they have never heard of the 75 % and have advised me to contact you. Also, this keeps dragging for over 4 months now and despite email communication, complaint about their services and phone calls I am still waiting for a proper answer. I really would like to understand my rights and since when once an appraisal is done I need 75 % of LTV, especially as this was never required in any of their letters. Thanks

Consumer Complaint: Every time I reach out to the company ( Loancare ) in regards to my loss mitigation application I am told something different. Ive never received correspondence about my case and when I call the company no one seems to be able to help me or have any information about it. I was told my case workers name is XXXX XXXX be shenever answers when Im transferred to her nor does she returns my calls. Ive been told that I was in a trial payment plan for four months and was forced to make a payment of {$1000.00} and some cents without agreeing to any of it only to call again and be told that no Im not on any trail payments and that they must have been in the wrong persons file!!!! My regular mortgage payment is 1200 plus dollars so the XXXX payment then was moved to so other account not being applied to my monthly payment and now Im considered to be be late due to their confusion. Even when I visit their site it shows that there is a 1st trail payment that they are trying to tell me that they never had me pay. Their site does not allow you to pay less than your monthly balance do this wouldnt have happened unless they arranged it that way. Somewhere along the way there is a lack of communication within this company that my mortgage was unfortunately sold to.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Subissue: Account status incorrect
Consumer Complaint: Loan Care is erroneously reporting 60 day late payments on my credit report for a period of time I never even lived in the home. My home was purchased XX/XX/XXXX and sold XX/XX/XXXX. Loan care is reporting that I have 60 day lates for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I tried repeatedly to have this corrected. Loan Care does not allow you to speak to representatives in their research department and despite bank statements showing payments and verification that the home was sold and payments were made timely, they have not updated the record. I wrote them several times and spoke to several representatives but was never able to speak directly with anyone that was actually responsible for rectifying the issue. I have been working with a consumer credit counselor for 6 months now and they have also tried to have the record updated as this is negatively affecting my credit score and preventing me from qualifying to purchase a home. They have been ignored as well. This is an egregious disregard of the facts and is creating an undue hardship to myself and my family.

Consumer Complaint: Due to recent health issues I was not paying very close attention to my mortgage. I just paid it. I realized in XX/XX/XXXX that my payment increased by XXXX PER MONTH and had been that way since XX/XX/XXXX. I called myloancare and they stated that my town taxes increased dramatically from XXXX a year to XXXX per year. I went to the town hall and they said I missed the homestead exemption. We calmly spoke and they said we can fix it it will take a month till the board meets on XX/XX/XXXX. The town met and sent me an abatement letter and a copy of the taxes backdated to the beginning of XX/XX/XXXX stating my taxes are in fact XXXX per year. I immediately sent the letter and abatement to my loancare, confirmed they received it and they said they would run an escrow analysis and fix it on XX/XX/XXXX. In the meantime I have overpaid by XXXX dollars without XXXX XXXX payment even being made yet. I received an email on XX/XX/XXXX from my stating that myloancare sent the Town of XXXX another XXXX dollars in tax payments that wasnt even due until XX/XX/XXXX verified by XXXX at the town of XXXX tax office XXXX. She said why did they send that and why would they do that " WE SPOKE TO THEM " AND TOLD THEM YOUR TAXES were XXXX per year. After the escrow analysis was marked as completed on XX/XX/XXXX by my loancare they update my account stating that my taxes are XXXX dollars per year and my payment was still XXXX higher than it should be at XXXX per month. When they have a black and white paper stating my XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX taxes are XXXX per year and spoke to the town and verified it with XXXX. They have refused to fix the account and refund any monies owed to me and just keep giving me the runaround. The stress of calling everyday and disputing the same facts with different people on any nornal time would be too much never mind with health issues and at XXXX time and being out of work but NEVER MISSING OR delaying any payments. Please help me please. They know they have the power and are just bullying and not doing what they are supposed to. It is very very wrong. And this stress is not healthy. I just want to pay my mortgage and not have to deal with this sham of a company.
