ARM mortgage servicers overcharging rate with no accessible correction path
Adjustable-rate mortgage servicers apply incorrect interest rates above the SOFR-based cap with 45-minute hold times and fake supervisor lines preventing resolution. Borrowers who can calculate the correct rate have no self-service mechanism to dispute or correct the charge. Each month of overcollection compounds the financial harm with no retroactive credit.

Mortgage Servicer Improperly Charges Daily Fees on Home Equity Loan
Shellpoint/Newrez improperly applied daily fees on multiple dates to a home equity loan account without adequate explanation. Erroneous fee calculations on mortgage products reduce consumer trust and require manual dispute processes. Limited fee transparency makes it difficult for consumers to detect overcharges.
Refinance rate switched higher immediately after authorizing credit pull
A lender verbally offered a specific refinance rate used to authorize a credit pull, then immediately switched to a much higher rate right after the credit was pulled. Single-transaction dispute.
Bank Charging Interest Rate Higher Than Disclosed in Account Agreement
Wells Fargo charged an interest rate on an account that exceeded the rate disclosed in the account agreement. The discrepancy was reported but not resolved. Single complaint about undisclosed rate deviation.
Loan Modifications Delivering Higher Payments Than Original Terms
Borrowers in financial distress who accept loan modifications from servicers like Newrez/Shellpoint find the restructured payments exceed their original amounts, directly contradicting the modification's stated purpose of payment relief. Servicers describe modifications as solely for curing delinquency rather than reducing payments, without disclosing this upfront. Borrowers are left with no alternative options and no escalation path when front-line representatives refuse to engage.
