Always go with a local bank or credit union. They don't usually sell their loans and try to actually work with customers.

My experience with Ocwen is one of frustration ! I fell behind on my payments due to loss of job. I'm now working again and have been make double payments when I can to catch up. Of course something else has to suffer due to this, so I went a couple of months sending in only one payment. All this started September of 2011. it's now April 2012 and without any notification to me they refused 2 payments that were made via Moneygram and didn't notify me. With that said, I call to make sure the payments have been received and posted to my account and I'm notified of this and that my house is in foreclosure ! Really nice communication. I retrieve my payments from Moneygram. I'm talk with an Ocwen rep on the phone ( from India) and he tells me the MINIMUM payment required to bring my account current will be this amount. I ask him for a direct number to speak with him again, he tells me anyone that answers the phone will be able to assist me. I told him to please note this and that I would make the payment in 2-3 days. I called today to verify the amount and let them know I'd be making said payment to satify the arrears. The rep on the line say "no, you need to make this amount of payment to bring your account current". It was $3000.00 more than we had agreed on. i told him of my conversation 2 days ago and he said there was nothing he could do. So now i'm having to scamble and borrow moneis to satisfy these clowns ! All I can say is as soon as my credit heals itself and I'm back on track with a good score, I'm kissing these idiots GOODBYE ! I've had enough of their BS ! What goes around, comes around and REALLY HOPE THEY GET THEIRS !

Dear Darla:
I would not recommend a class action, as Ocwen is doing nothing illegal (at least nothing that can be proved). Fighting Ocwen is a case to case defy. One has to be patient and be correctly advised. Otherwise, you will think you're doing something, while digging your grave deeper each time.
Best of lucks with Ocwen, and should you need any further advise, please contact me to urostar@adinet.com.uy.

Best Regards,

I TOO HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH OCWEN OVER THE YEARS FROM MODIFICATIONS TO THREATS OF FORCLOSURE. I FINALLY SOLD MY MOM'S HOUSE AND TOOK A BIG LOSS BECAUSE UNTIL OCWEN GOT DONE WITH ME IN INTEREST AND LATE CHARGES OUR PAYOFF WAS MORE THAN THE ORIGINAL DEBT. NEEDLESS TO SAY SOMEONE IS SCREWING SOMEONE. THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING AND I HOPE THAT SOMEONE CATCHES UP WITH THEM AND MAKES THAM PAY.

My experience with Ocwen is similar. Voicemail hell and the right hand not having a clue what the left is doing. I would consult a realtor you can trust. They will have the ability and/or contacts to confirm if your property is indeed in foreclosure, foreclosed upon, and/or sold. I got plenty of scary bogus letters and varified via same plus other resources that most of it was not: Find the best BANCRUPTCY lawyer near you for INITIAL FREE counsel regarding your rights. Trust me, it will amaze you what you will learn. MAY WANT TO REFER TO THIS SITE AND ALSO DISCUSS PROBABILITY OF A CLASS ACTION SUIT. COUNT ME IN IF THAT IS THE CASE! NEOBLUEYES@GMAIL.COM
It took me a year of due diligence via phone, repeat applications, a journal docuimenting all of my efforts, and emails to get my HAMP agreement after I was refused once and sent an in-house bad deal whihc I refused. I talked to an ombudsman along with several different alleged Ocwen departments, 2 lawyers, and several realtors to aquire info regarding MY rights. I finally got my agreement, it is noted as rec'd (certified and on web) but all other info is skewed. So far...so good. DO NOT LET THEM SCARE YOU. Defend yourself in all ways imaginable! Best Wishes, Britt

This is an exact duplicate of our story. Our attorney has been contacting Ocwen since before thanksgiving, 2010. We are now in January, 2011 and still no help. They said we were in foreclosure, but never sent us any notices. The ombudsman gave us a name and number to a specialist in their home retention department and she wont return call from myself or our attorney. They received millions of dollars from the government to modify loans and all they are doing is taking peoples homes away. How do they get away with this?

It took me a year of due diligence via phone, repeat applications, a journal documenting all of my efforts, and emails to get my HAMP agreement after I was refused once and sent an in-house bad deal which I refused.

Between Saxon Mortgage and Ocwen, these two companies are incahoots! I will also join a class action lawsuit ! Someone has to put a stop to these companies!

I can understand totally my mom got screw by them as well.They were saying she was making her payments late when she was paying early and they didn't process it until after the due date then charged her late fees. She did get a lawyer and sued, afterwards everything got better, for the 1st year the lawyer handled the payments. The annoying phone calls stop(which they should have never called cause she made all her payments on time!) She doesn't have a problem with them anymore.

I AGREE. EACH STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL SHOULD INVOKE AN INVESTIGATION.

OCWEN finally got what they wanted from me...my house! After years of fighting and their so called 'help you' tactic, my rates went up, their Mod. Plans didn't work...in fact they increased my monthly payment saying we can help save your home. Just one load of ### after another, one desception after another. Hard to contact...MY GOD! If it wasn't them constantly putting you on hold, it was their incompetent "tech support" staff from India or Pakistan or some other ### middle-eastern country that couldn't speak or understand english. They consistently placed late fees on my account when it wasn't late. They say they will help with a modification plan...which in fact made it worse because they required upfront money to initiate the plan. This is EXTORTION! This company's actions is criminal. I requested information and the required documents needed for a Deed In-Lieu of Foreclosure...the idiot I spoke to sent me paperwork for a home modification plan. I called several times demanding they send the correct paperwork to no avail! They are not in the business to help homeowners. They are a collection company! Their main sourse of revenue is from late fees and servicing fees. They couldn't give two -### about you or me.

I urge all current and future OCWEN customers to call their local state representative and demand an investigation.

I have OCWEN for my loan proceesor. They are a joke! For months they kept telling us we could have a modification to get us out of a adjustable rate & lower our mortgage payment. I would send them all the necessary paper work & the other person did not know what the other one was talking about. This went on for months! My husband went from working 7 days a week to 1 or 2. Talk about a BIG pay cut. We then were heading to forclosure. I contacted KEL Attorneys in Orlando Florida. 2 years & $ 5000.00 later we still have not resolved this matter! They now are telling me it is time to renew our contract. Wanting another $ 2500.00. I very seldom hear from any one from KEL, you can't get a phone call back, only emails that don't give you any answers. Has any one used KEL Attorneys & did you have this problem or was your home saved? Please let me know any answers. Do you have any other attorneys you would refer to? xtrememom08@AOL.com

While most who are commenting do not participate in loan modifications on a daily basis they should still do a little research prior to making comments and sounding ignorant. I HATE Ocwen as much as everyone else on this board, I mean how can the gov give this company taxpayer dollars to pay some robot script reading reps in India and Uruguay! What people do not realize is that there are many more guidelines for HAMP than the gov leads borrower's to believe. Examples... If you have a Freddie mac loan and are less than 60 days past due you have to pass their imminent default test>>> good luck! if you are paying why would or should they give you a mod! If you have equity in your property why should your lender give you a mod when they can foreclose and make more money? Everyone thinks their lender is REQUIRED to take their salary and give them a payment of 31%... Here's a hint, use your gross year to date and divide by your last pay date, this gives your true average monthly income which is what they use... guess what... if you owe 300K and make less than 3k a month you will not pass the NPV test... learn what the NPV test is. Do yourself a favor and do a little research prior to applying for a program you know nothing about! PS unemployment does not qualify for HAMP or FM.

I did a modification with Ocwen went through the same thing. In the end I did get my Mod. It was the best day if my life. It took 7 mounths.
Now I have 2% for 5 yrs 6th year 3% and 7 year 3.5 year 8 I have 4% to the end of the loas which at that point will only be 12 years. Please hang in there and it can work. My home was in forclouser twice during this time and each time the STOP it.

Try this guy. We recently had our mortgage "refinanced" and he wasn't all that helpful, but get to him and if annoying enough - he will go to the top. Some lady is his boss but I can't remember her name.

HAMP ISSUES WITH INSTRUCTIONS AT THE BOTTOM: My husband has a mortgage he took out before we were married. He always paid early with an automatic bank draft and for more than what was due. He had never been on government assistance in his life and had perfect credit. After unexpectedly loosing his job in June of 2009, we found out that we qualified for HAMP. We started out with TB&W and sent in “verified” information to qualify for HAMP. 3 trial period payments were sent in to TB&W who shut down during the trial period process. At the advice of Freddie Mac, my husband put his credit on the line and was told that it would be cleaned up in a few months once the payments were capitalized on and the final was complete. Cenlar took over TB&W’s loans and held our file for 6 months. During this time, they cashed our trial period checks and claimed they never received the money. They would not return phone calls. They threatened foreclosure even when we were paid up on the trial period payments. Cenlar lost all of TB&W’s paperwork. Cenlar asked us to send our copies of the paperwork 5 times (documented). Freddie Mac told us they would escalate the matter and sent paperwork to Cenlar on our behalf.

Freddie Mac finally told us to ignore Cenlar and that Cenlar did not handle HAMP files. Why then would Freddie Mac ask us to send our HAMP paperwork to Freddie Mac to escalate the matter for us? Why would Cenlar ask us to overnight, mail and fax the HAMP paperwork to them 5 times if they did not handle HAMP? Why would CENLAR cash clearly marked HAMP checks? We also sent emails, letters, and made phone calls to all parties involved. We tracked down a skeletal crew for TB&W and got the tracking numbers of the information that TB&W had sent to them.

Freddie Mac told us not to pay Cenlar that they had found a servicer named OCWEN to take over our loan. We were told by Freddie Mac that OCWEN agreed to capitalize on the payments and bring us current in January of 2010. There was just the legality of sending over our file from CENLAR. It is May and no one has our file. I again sent copies of our paperwork to an onsite Freddie Mac rep at OCWEN who did not give our paperwork to the correct parties. This new Freddie Mac rep also lied to us stating the our file we sent was being looked at by underwriters in India. Then when we checked back with him the file was being reviewed by the Treasury. Then the file was up the chain at Freddie Mac. He lied and is now working for a bank in California. When we called Ocwen, Ocwen said that this was all up to Freddie Mac to decide. Freddie Mac claims it is all up to Ocwen to decide.

Here is the long and short of it. Any chance of my husband finding a job in the line of work he had performed in the last 26 – 27 years is over due to following the advice of Freddie Mac. In his line of work he had to have great credit. Freddie Mac reps knew this all along. We would have not chose this path had we not been guided this way. My husband has a 401K that does not come into consideration when applying for HAMP because it is his retirement. We could have bought some time and put the house on the market by using this money. We did not want to lose our home, which is what HAMP is made for. We used my small salary which would be enough to pay the modified payments on the home. Remember, I am not on the loan and they all knew this. According to HAMP guidelines, I can contribute part or all of my income.

First Ocwen states that we did not send in the proper documentation. This I proved not to be true. I also showed them that the person making the decision is confused as to who is on the loan and who is not since I, a female, continually am addressed as “he” in their interoffice memos.

They then tried to blame Taylor Bean and Whitaker saying TB&W signed people up illegally only using “stated” income and that was how we got signed up. I then had to prove that TB&W went overboard with me and made me send in “7” pay stubs as opposed to the “2” that is standard and my pay was “verified”. By the way, at the time we qualified, “stated” income was allowed and really should not matter until we do the final mod just to verify my income is still the same. I also told them TB&W used 2 negotiators instead of one to come up with our payments. I then asked where all of the original paperwork was at to clarify the issues since TB&W used Freddie Macs worksheets to come up with our payments and to qualify us. Our paperwork is still lost.

Now all of a sudden, Ocwen is saying that I can not contribute but 50% of my income and that is not enough money to pay the payments they claim. They did not alter the loan to the 2%, they did not stretch the loan out for 40 years, and they did not do the NPV to adjust the principal. These are all listed as steps they are supposed to do. We had to tell Ocwen and Freddie Mac what the guidelines stated because they have no clue or they are playing dumb very well.

From what I have gathered, all of these loan servicers are conveniently losing files. I wished there was a way to file a class action law suit for missing files. I know that there is a protocol that has to be taken for the storage and care of people’s financial information and I have been told there are 100’s of thousands of files missing! People are being disqualified after being qualified for HAMP for trumped up reasons like all of a sudden “not enough income” or “missing paperwork”. A lot of people are giving up and walking away. Others are taking stands. The Urban Justice Center in NY [protected] has filed suit against a large bank JP Morgan or Chase I think, for 3 people who were lied to. The National Consumer Law Center in Boston has filed a Class Action Lawsuit also.

If you are going through the same issue, here are some things you can do:

File a complaint with your State Attorney General (states are gathering complaints)

Contact your representatives and congressman

Contact your States Financial Regulations department and file a complaint (states are gathering complaints)

Keep documentation – I have recorded phone calls and emails from Freddie Mac with their guidance

There are a few lawsuits going on across the Country

Go to www.hmpadmin.com and do research to see what fits your criteria.

Read the directives at the HAMP website. Q1222-01 is a great one!

Call Freddie Mac’s corporate number and when it asks for a person’s name, ask for the CEO.
File a complaint.

Send a complaint letter to Freddie’s Mac’s CEO

Address complaints to the loan servicer on your loan’s President of the Company (in some instances these are the only ones that get through)

Ohio’s Attorney General is filing a class action lawsuit against some servicer regarding HAMP (maybe your state will follow soon if enough complaints are made)

Remember, you are not alone.

You are not alone. I just lost my job. Requested the loan modifications papers form from Ocwen and I did receive.

However, I am going thru the same process you are. Ocwen informs me they have not received all the forms I faxed to them. 43 pages and they tell me they have not received and cannot process my loan because it is incomplete.

I tried calling to talk with someone to find out what papers do they not have. I cannot reach a live person only pointless information from a computer voice system and when I do reach the modification loan dept automated voice system again. This voice mail informs the caller they will return calls within 24-48 hours. It has been 3 months and I have not spoken to any rep in the modification loan dept. as of today. Another thing, their call base is located in India. There is a language barrier to discuss anything with their reps in another country.

I am at whits end! President Obama needs to know we paid tax dollars to bail out the rich for corporations and businesses. Homeowners, don't stand a chance to try and save their homes.
