(53,678 posts)You posted that a few weeks after I lost my house. I had been sending them trial payments for seven months and one day I got a knock on the door. Someone was checking out my house because it was going up for auction that day. I was never notified.
I ended up in the hospital twice in the next two weeks.
I had documented every phone call, fax, email, and letter. I even had a lawyer but at the time most lawyers were worthless because they had no idea what was going on either. I think they took advantage of the ignorance and vulnerability of so many stressed homeowners at the time, and clearly the government underestimated their criminal intent and capacity for greed. I'll never trust a large financial institution again.
That was good solid advice and I think I saw your post back then, though it was too late at the time. I know what all this did to me and my family, and I know there are people who probably had it much worse. Meanwhile, no one will ever really be held responsible for the cruel indifference.
