Mortgage Servicer Payment Misapplication Blocks Loss Mitigation Access

Borrowers spend months providing documentation only to be denied based on records the servicer itself corrupted. This pattern compounds financial harm for already-distressed homeowners.

Businesses fail to collect revenue already earned in Stripe
