Mortgage Conventional fixed mortgage

Complaint #1587487 submitted on 09/30/2015 relating to Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation. Complaint relates to Mortgage Conventional fixed mortgage - Loan servicing, payments, escrow account .

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Wednesday 30th September 2015.

Narrative (may be redacted).

During my first initial talks with Fairway Mortgage ( XXXX, ID office - XXXX ) I explicitly asked how twice monthly payments would be applied. I was they would be applied once received less a few days for processing. I even went-on to press the point, given that my mother 's mortgage will take her payments whenever, but they wo n't be applied until they are due. Thus, sending twice monthly payments does nothing ; the loan servicer has her money, they continue to charge her interest, and her payments do n't reduce her mortgage until they are due. I cited this exact example and he said no, that is not the case. He even went-on to voice confusion and concern for my mother 's mortgage ; I explained that it 's about 15 years old and maybe that has something to do with it. This was a point for me, as we make twice monthly payments in-order to shorten the life of our loan ; this mortgage is my only debt, I purchased a 15 year mortgage ; I want to be done with it ASAP.

My loan was then sold to XXXX.

After many requests by XXXX, I have received a full amortization schedule ( they had been providing me summary information ). Details of my payments show that my payments, just like my mother 's, have been received and cashed as received ( twice monthly ) but once again have not been applied to my loan until due ( or until both payments have been received ). I voiced my concern that this was not what was sold to me, this will add hundreds in interest, and many months to our loan. At this point, they directed me back to Fairway.

After contacting Fairway ( XXXX is no longer employed there so I spoke with his manager, XXXX ) I was told that it is up to XXXX how to apply the payments and they do n't have any control over that. I pressed the point that I signed a form, along with the numerous other mortgage forms, OK'ing Fairway to sell my mortgage ( which they did to XXXX ) only if the terms and the loan does n't change. Although my interest APR did n't change, the way in-which it was applied did. Which equates to a change. Fairway disagrees. When asked who to contact, Fairway directed me to their corporate office and made no mention of CFPB.
