      I recently had an extremely disappointing interaction with Lakeview **** Services. Their negligence led to my homeowners insurance policy lapsing, leaving me without coverage for almost a year. Heres a breakdown of my experience:Policy Lapse: Lakeview is responsible for paying my Taxes/Insurance through my escrow account. I recently noticed an increase in my payment, so I looked into my taxes/insurance on 3/6 to see where this was coming from. After confirming with the insurance company and Lakeview, they both confirmed that Lakeview failed to pay my insurance premium, resulting in my policy lapsing 9 months ago. Lakeview was notified of the cancellation but no action was taken on their end to pay the premium or get this reinstated after cancellation. They did not reach out to me regarding this issue, and I did not know of the lapse until looking into it this morning and calling their company. Due to the time that has passed since cancellation, the insurance company is unable to reinstate coverage and it will be 30-days until they can provide a new policy. Lakeview advised that I would have to secure new insurance.Customer Service Nightmare: I have spent hours on the phone with Lakeview, mainly waiting on hold. The runaround, long wait times, and lack of resolution are infuriating. I have not been notified of how they will be correcting this moving forward, nor have they confirmed they would be covering the difference in premium. UPDATE 3/28 - Still have not received any updates on resolution from the company. I have reached out several times via email and customer service number and no additional information has been provided.Again, I would like to reiterate - avoid Lakeview **** Services at all cost if you value reliable loan/insurance handling, look elsewhere. Their negligence in performing paid services, lack of accountability, and poor customer service are unacceptable.

      My mortgage was transferred to this company. Since moving to this company my mortgage has increased over $100. You can't ever speak with a live agent. I am making payments and they arent going towards what they need to go to.

      Business Response

      Date: 04/11/2024

      After Mr. ******* review of the loan, it was determined that there were several midterm insurance changes, which caused the shortage in the escrow account. The loan transferred over to **************** on September 2, 2021, with an
      escrow balance of $8.43. When the next escrow analysis was generated on January 4, 2022, there was a shortage in the escrow account in the amount of $874.34. The property taxes and insurance amounts increased from the initial amounts. However, the escrow shortages and increase in the monthly payments were mainly due to the midterm insurance changes.


      On April 10, 2004, **************** spoke to the customer to discuss the escrow shortage. Below is a recap of the conversation:
      I spoke with the customer and explained the increase in the payment was mainly due to the midterm insurance changes which caused a shortage in the escrow account. She felt she was given the incorrect shortage amount of $59.28 as she paid that amount, and the account reflected another escrow shortage in the amount of $71.55 on March 28, 2024. I advised her that the amount can fluctuate based on escrow items that are disbursed, and the *** insurance was paid on March 28, 2024, before the escrow analysis was generated. I advised that all the additional payments have been deposited into the escrow account and verified that it is correct. I apologized for the difficulties that she has faced trying to get in contact with a customer service agent. I explained that our phone system requires the customer to be fully authenticated and know what the call is regarding to route the call to the correct agent.

      An email was sent by *************************** from Mr. ******* Customer Relations Team explaining Mr. ******* findings.

      On April 10, 2024, Mr. ******* Customer Relations Specialist *************************** spoke to ****************** and explained the increase in the payment as a result of the customer switching insurance policies midterm. Additionally, she explained the reason for the additional shortage that occurred due to additional escrow items being disbursed.
      On April 17, 2024. **************** tried to reach the customer. The agent left the customer a detailed voicemail message was left with steps to walk through the automated phone system.


      We want to apologize for the frustration you have experienced with our automated phone system. Please know that we are constantly improving our technology to create the best experience possible. In the meantime, it may be helpful to know a few things about how our automated phone system works to help avoid these issues in the future.


      Identity Verification - For your security, our phone system requires you to verify your identity before it can fully serve you. To make this easy, it will automatically recognize you when you are calling from a number associated with your account. You can also verify your identity using other secure information, such as your social security number.


      Just Ask- Our automated phone system is designed to help you find what you need quickly, without waiting for an agent. To do this, it needs to know why you are calling. You can say things like, Make a payment, Get my statement, and other self-service items. While we realize that sometimes you may want to speak directly to an agent, our system will first need to know what you would like to speak to an agent about.


      Fully Automated Features- To make our systems more secure than ever, certain functions are now fully automated. Some common tasks, such as making a payment, can now be done entirely through our convenient, self-service tools, like our automated phone system or website. Our agents are no longer able to process most payments over the phone.

Lakeview is a master servicer and reputable lender who takes these matters very seriously and will work in good faith to resolve any misunderstandings with a customer, as we always want to provide excellent customer service.

      ********************** is the owner of the mortgage servicing rights (MSR) for this loan. However, please know that Lakeview contracts with various subservicers to perform the day-to-day servicing activities for our mortgage loans. In this instance, LoanCare, LLC (a non-affiliated and separate company) subservices this loan on Lakeviews behalf. Foremost, we hear and understand your frustration. We do apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. We appreciate the opportunity to further explain.

      Upon receiving the complaint, LoanCare research confirms LoanCare reviewed your account and confirmed there were two payments drafted from your financial institution on January 5, 2024. LoanCare reversed one of those payments on March 19, 2024, and returned a check to the customer via overnight delivery.

      As of the date of this letter the account is next due for April 1, 2024, payment.

      Our loan was recently sold to this company. We received our mortgage statement and the monthly is almost $400 higher than previously. I CANNOT REACH THEM. They dont answer their phones and the one time I was able to get a live person, she hung up on my after I explained my issue and that I needed information on why they increased our mortgage payment. Ive tried chatting on their site to no avail, and their automated system goes in circles while not allowing you to speak with someone. If they cant answer their customers, they should not be buying loans.

      A review of your account determined that the payment change effective April 1, 2024, was determined prior to the transfer of servicer. An escrow analysis was completed by the prior servicer on January 23,2024, which resulted in a payment change from $3,648.66 to $3,925.12 and increase in monthly payment amount of $276.46.

      We have enclosed a copy of the prior servicer Escrow Disclosure Statement for your review. When the loan transferred to ****************,the account was due for 3/1/2024, in the amount of $3,648.66. **************** issued the April 2024 billing statement to reflect the payment due for April 1, 2024,in the amount of $3,925.12. A call attempt was made followed by resolution email sent to the customer on March 27, 2024.

      On 03/28/2024, **************** reached out to ************ to discuss her escrow concerns. Below is a recap of the conversation:
      We called and spoke to the customer. The customer confirmed receipt of the resolution details and stated was unaware of the analysis completed by the prior servicer. We discussed the results of the prior servicer analysis and the customer confirmed that all questions regarding the analysis have now been answered. The customer confirmed that she was informed of supplemental taxes at closing but was expecting the taxes to be billed in a lessor amount. However, she understood that supplemental taxes are not escrowed,and the property tax amount was paid in an amount as expected. The customer stated the intent to make a payment toward the shortage and to request a new analysis after receiving more information directly from the tax agency regarding the breakdown of the supplemental taxes. The customer was provided with my direct contact information for future reference.

      Since the Cyberattack in late November/ Early December I have been unable to have my mortgage payments applied to my mortgage. Not only were my original payments "kicked back" as a returned check (which they weren't) they were NEVER PROCESSED ON THE COMAPNIES END. I was not properly communicated with. I reached out to find out why no monies had been taken out of my bank account on multiple occasions. They reassured that it was received and paid at one point. Then kicked back again and told it was the wrong checking account number on file. (I also had to reach back out again to find out any of this happened). I updated checking account information even though it looked correct on my end. Submitted 3 more payments total all to be returned. I verified with my bank that nothing was pending or being processed by Loancare/Lakeview. Multiple investigations have been open and closed with no progress. As a result of the paperwork sent from the investigation I can now see that the bank account information on their end was and has never been ANY of mine nor anything I could have submitted at any point. This leads me to believe they have a glitch in their system since the Cyberattack. I was locked out of paying online and submitted the full balance owed as of February via cashier's check. Which they have now lost. I have proof of delivery to their address. I then submitted March mortgage payment via Moneygram. I have attached multiple proofs of not only the cashiers check, proof of withdrawal and proof of delivery to your company. I will also send my bank statement once it is generated by *********** Your company has not only been kicking back valid payments for months, changed my banking account on file, not communicated properly, charged late fees, forced me to pay extra money out of pocket to mail and wire money over, ruined my credit and has now lost $4,551.68 that has been pulled out of my bank account. I will take legal recourse if not resolved this week.

      My mortgage was recently transferred to Lakeview Loan Servicing. I received a letter from the previous lender with information about setting up my new account and payments with Lakeview. The letter stated that I would be able to access and set up my loan starting on 3/4/24. On this date, I tried to set up my account online, but was unable to so I called their customer service number and was informed that I would have to wait until 3/8/24 to set up my online account. On 3/8, I attempted to set up my account again, and ran into the same issues. I called back and was told that I actually had to wait until 3/11/24 to set up my online account.It's now 3/11/24, so attempted to set up my online account, but it was still failing because the account number I was given in my documentation to use to set up my account was wrong. I called again today and was told that my account number was completely different. I had not been mailed or emailed anything with this information, so if I had not called I would not have been able to set this up. While on the call, I told the agent that the loan transfer process didn't meet my expectations and was so far a negative experience. She hung up on me. I called back, because I still had additional questions about setting up bi-monthly payments. With my previous servicer, as my account was paid up a month in advance, I was able to make partial payments. I was told this was not an option with Lakeview and that they would not accept advance mortgage payments if it was not a single payment of the full amount.When I asked where I could submit a complaint about this and the transfer process, the customer service agent told me that I could "write it down in a notebook." Absolutely appalling.

We do apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. We appreciate the opportunity to further explain.

      Upon receiving the complaint, LoanCare research confirms LoanCare mailed the customer the welcome letter, dated March 6, 2024, so they would have important information about the transfer of the accounts servicing, and their new LoanCare loan number for reference.Upon transfer of sub-servicing to LoanCare, each loan goes through a verification process, which ensures all the transferred information is accurate, and loaded to the system properly.
      Under the *********** Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA), the customers loan will not receive late fees or have negative credit reporting for the first 60 days, to allow time for the above-referenced verification process.

      As detailed in the Closing Disclosure [Page 4], the lender does not accept any partial payments.If LoanCare receives an amount insufficient to bring the account current, the funds will be held in unapplied funds until funds are received, which are sufficient to satisfy one monthly payment. If not received right away, funds can be applied to reduce a borrowers principal balance or towards any fees and costs.

      LoanCare sent the customer a copy of their Automatic Draft Confirmation, the first auto draft will take place April 1,2024, and on the first day of each month thereafter.

      The servicer LoanCare is committed to delivering the highest quality of service to every customer. LoanCare strive to build long-term relationships based on integrity, trust, and competency. After LoanCare reviewed the telephone call referenced in the customers correspondence, ******** confirmed that their Management Team has been made aware of the concerns regarding the process for submitting a complaint. We appreciate your business, and truly regret if we did not meet your expectations.

      Lakeview will consider this concern resolved based on the actions of the servicer LoanCare. A detailed resolution letter has been sent to the borrower from LoanCare.

      Lakeview has repeatedly added comments to my credit report I have challenged the balance of my loan. THIS IS NOT TRUE!!! I have repeatedly asked them to REMOVE the comments and they keep adding them. I never once challenged my balance, I challenged the fact they were insisting I had a lapse in HOI and were going to charge me an exorbitant amount of money for it!!! They are singing my credit repeatedly with this nonsense that is NOT TRUE!!!

      I am rejecting this response because:

      Although Lakeview has finally removed the unnecessary comment, they have now increased my mortgage balance by $371.  How is that possible when I have no late payments, and I am paid ahead for half of my May 2024 mortgage payment?  This company is unethical and dishonest.

Lakeview is a master servicer and reputable lender who takes these matters very seriously and will work in good faith to resolve any misunderstandings with a customer, as we always want to provide excellent customer service.

      ********************** is the owner of the mortgage servicing rights (MSR) for this loan. However, please know that Lakeview contracts with various subservicers to perform the day-to-day servicing activities for our mortgage loans. In this instance, LoanCare, LLC (a non-affiliated and separate company) subservices this loan on Lakeviews behalf.Foremost, we hear and understand your frustration. We do apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. We appreciate the opportunity to further explain.

      Upon receiving the complaint, LoanCare research confirms the borrower is 100% tax exempt with Clay County for the Ad-Valorem taxes; however, the borrower is still responsible for the non-ad-valorem taxes for $2,013.13. Tax information on the account has been updated to reflect the current tax amounts owed.

      On March 11, 2024, the LoanCare representative and the borrower discussed the information regarding their tax obligation with Clay County. It was also advised that the borrowers homeowners insurance premium was disbursed on March 1, 2024, for $3,217.59.This premium is significantly higher from what was paid last year, the borrower stated this was not accurate and that they would be reaching out to their county tax assessors and insurance company for more information. ******** has sent a copy the borrowers most recent tax bill from Clay County for their reference.

      Lakeview will consider this concern resolved based on the actions of the servicer LoanCare. A detailed resolution letter has been sent to the borrower from LoanCare.

      I am rejecting this because: 

      Even with the increases on insurance and the tax still doesn't compute to what they are saying my mortgage is. The "corporate"  handler is not returning my calls.

      Refinanced my Mortgage with Lakeview Loan Servicing, LLC formerly known as ********** LLC. During the closing I signed a document specific to the state of ********* called the ********* Property Tax Escrow option which gives me the right to choose how I would like my taxes paid, ie.; annually or Bi-annually and there used to be an option for you to have the mortgage company send you a check at the end of the year so you could go pay the taxes yourself. I used to be certified through the *************************** to go out to peoples homes to complete the loan signings for Banks and title companies. I bring this up because I knew exactly what document to look for when closing the loan. I am 100% percent certain that on the ********* Property Tax Escrow option we chose the option to have our taxes paid once per year. During the 1st year of payments I noticed the taxes were being paid twice per year and I bought it to their attention. They looked and according to them I selected the option to have my payments made twice per year. After going back and forth with the representative swearing I didn't select that option, I was instructed to send an email to the tax division requesting the change from twice per year to once per year. I did that and have had several "escalation" processes scheduled for a supervisor to call me. Well they call from a number that doesn't ring on the phone and they leave a voicemail telling you to call back at more convenient time to speak to them regarding the matter. When you call the number they give you a recording comes on saying the number is invalid or doesn't except incoming calls. This has been 2 years now and I am still seeking resolution. I asked a representative on 2-16-24 to send me a digital copy of the original document showing what selection I made on the ********* Property Tax Escrow option, the email I got as of 2-18-24 only contained the closing disclosure and my first payment letter. Why is this so difficult to change?
