I am rejecting this response because:
Because we put it in Writing As Per quested on Paying Own Escrow and That's what we did Until 2020. We were beat to Paying HomeOwners Portions. Always Pay Property Taxes and Principles & Interest. We are willing to Pay the Home Owner Part that they Paid, Because they didn't allow us to Pay. But that is not 21,000. And They have our Money of $57,980.58. Mortgage should be Paid in Full

SPS is my mortgage holder. We had an insurance claim for water and mold damage which the insurance company paid out on. Because there is a mortgage on the property our checks were co-signed to my wife and the mortgage company. We mailed out the check on April 29th overnight and it was deposited by SPS into the wrong *********** mortgage). All SPS had to do was sign and return check. It is now June 23 and as of 5:00 pm today, I still cant get an answer to a very simple question, When will SPS be returning my endorsed check back? We call every other day only to be told Its a process to transfer this money to the right account. I feel SPS has taken advantage and profited off our money and is dragging their feet on returning our check signed. Thank you for listening to us, Sincerely, *************************Business response

This company holds my mortgage since March of 24. I am escrowed and property taxes as well as homeowners insurance is paid on my behalf. My property taxes are paid quarterly (Feb, May, Aug, Nov). My previous mortgage company made the Feb payment. However the current company has not issued the payment due 5/1/24. The attached document dated 5/13 brought this to my attention and I have called every 2 weeks since then. I continue to be told "it is under review". No "review" takes this long. The document attached also states there is a tax sale on 6/26/24 if this remains unpaid. Which it will be because no company can get a payment and have it credited from Utah to New Jersey in 48 hours. They need to pay this on my behalf or release the entirety of my escrow balance to me ASAP and Ill pay the remaining 3 payments on my own since this company is obviously incompetent. Please assist in any way you can.Initial Complaint

My mortgage is currently held with Select Portfolio Servicing. (SPS) I do not escrow my taxes and insurance. My mortgage payment is $1052.96. For tax year 2022 I paid my Fort Bend County taxes in four payments. Without my knowledge, the mortgage company paid $949.36 towards my 2022 taxes. I paid all of the 2022 taxes. The mortgage company is charging my mortgage account the $949.36 and increased my monthly mortgage payment to $1118.89 to offset the balance they added to my escrow account. I do not owe the mortgage company any money. Fort Bend county sent a refund check to the mortgage company for $949.36 for their overpayment. The mortgage company claims they never received the refund and continue to hold me accountable for the money that is owed to them by the county. I have spoken with Fort Bend County tax department and the mortgage company numerous times to resolve this matter. It has yet to be resolved. I have been paying my original mortgage payment of $1052.96 on time every month. Because I refuse to pay the $1118.89 (which includes the escrow error amount) I am not able to make any of my mortgage payments via the online platform or pay by phone. The system will only accept $1118.89. I have only been able to make payments by setting up payments with a "live" customer service rep. (each time I have to explain why I am not paying the $1118.89) I need this issue resolved. It has been going on since September 2023. Your assistance is requested to get the mortgage company to stop billing me for the tax overpayment of $949.36 and get their money back from Fort Bend County.Initial Complaint

On March 31, 2017, Nationstar Mortgage and I executed a Home Affordable Modification Agreement (Loan No.: *******) The Modification Effective Date was May 1, 2017. I complied with all terms and conditions of the Agreement. On January 26, 2018, the first HAMP Incentive of $1000 was applied to my mortgage principal On or about November 2018, my mortgage was transferred to Select Portfolio Servicing (SPS) On January 23, 2019, the second HAMP Incentive of $1000 was applied to my mortgage principal On January 22, 2020, the third HAMP Incentive of $1000 was applied to my mortgage principal On January 19, 2021, the fourth HAMP Incentive of $1000 was applied to my mortgage principal On January 30, 2022, the fifth HAMP Incentive of $1000 was applied to my mortgage principal When I did not receive the sixth and final incentive of $5000 in January 2023, I contacted SPS and was told I needed to sign a Dodd Frank Certification. This was signed and returned on March 2, 2023. From March through October 2023, I received numerous excuses when I asked about the status of my incentive. In about November 2023, I was told that HAMP incentives are received by the Federal Government and applied annually in January, and that I would see the $5000 reflected on my February 2024 statement. This did not happen. On May 22, 2024, the Ombudsman representative informed me that the incentive would not be applied to my mortgage principal. SPS was withholding the incentive due to a missed deadline, not of the mortgage payments, but in returning the Dodd Frank Certification. As this certification was not part of the Agreement, I demanded that the basis for this decision be supplied in writing. I was told nothing would be provided. When I asked to speak with a supervisor, I was told, no. To date, no one at SPS has responded to my phone calls or email. Supporting documentation for this complaint will be provided upon request.Initial Complaint

On May 10, 2024, my title company made the full payment of obligation number **********, money that was transferred in its entirety including the sum of $22.00 that this company charged me as a fine for early payment that I consider a collection. illegal. Having already received all of the money that was owed, on May 11, SPS debited my account for $3,248.31, in an abusive manner, since by that time no money was owed. I called and they told me that I was right and that in 20 business days they would return that money to me, which seems like a long time to me and I need the money to be returned to the same account that was debited immediately. Likewise, the fine collected of $22,000 was returned for the concept of fine for early payment of the obligation, which I consider totally illegal. It is important to note that I request that the money be returned directly to the Bank of America account from which they were debited, since the address I had is no longer mine and any check sent there will be lost.Initial Complaint

It has been nothing but issues since I have been dealing with Select Portfolio Servicing, There is so much deception and lies, as well as questionable ethics with Select Portfolio Servicing.
