The website is down without any reason as to why, or when it will be back on. So, I currently have no way to pay, can't contact them either (attempts just get returned), phone hours are limited. It's built for browsers that I don't typically use. It's really hard to pay on time when I can't login or access the site easily.

I have contacted the DFI and BBB, maybe I need to contact the police? This company is literally stealing my money. They "misplaced" a 950$ payment. Keep calling me and saying I'm late on my payment, but no one can help me find where it went. I faxed them the bank records, they cashed all of my checks. But only have a record of 2. The next time they called me they tried to say I sent it to the wrong people. Umm the carbon copy clearly says PHH Mortgage and you guys cashed it sooo.... I sincerely think they are scammers.
Everyone I've talked to can't do a damn thing for me. You get a different person every time, so you have to explain yourself over and over. The other day I spent 4 hours trying to get a hold of someone in that company. Got hung up on twice and hung up on diamond because she was rude as hell and after 4 hours I was so overwhelmed and irritated. Not only did they steal the 950 and have no clue where it is but my principal is over 800$ short and according to their bill my escrow went down from last month....even tho the same amount comes out of every check for the escrow.
I saw a while ago they lost a lawsuit in New York. Now they have decided to branch out and screw the rest of the country too. I want out of this company before they ** me even harder than they already have. Worst part of all of this? Besides stealing my money and having the worst customer service I've ever experienced? It's been 3 months since they bought my mortgage from guarantee rate. 3 months!!!! They have ** me this hard in the first 3 months. I'd hate to see how much they steal in a 30yr mortgage!!!! If I could give 0 stars I would.

I refinanced my mortgage that I had with PHH. The new lender sent the pay off and PHH said they never received the funds. I provided the confirmation wire transfer receipt with all the information they required. I kept being hung up on and left on hold (sometimes 30 mins at a time). The escalation managers have no regard for your time and keep telling me that the "cash department" is doing research to find the funds. It's been approximately 13 days (9 business days) and my funds have still not been located.
All this is going on and PHH is still trying to call me and ask for the monthly payment. I have emailed the escalation department, called the escalation department, even called PHH Mortgages bank to verify the funds were there. I am trying to purchase a second home and I am not able to because this company has my original mortgage hostage. This company has had my blood pressure elevated and has not allowed me to sleep for days over the lost funds.

Mohammed, we're sorry to hear about your experience and apologize for any frustration this issue has caused. I see our team is currently researching this and we will continue to work with you to bring to resolution. Thank you.

I sold my house on 7/26/19 and there was an overpayment of $1500. PHH claims that the check was sent to me but I never received it, as it was sent to an address that I haven't lived at in 3 years! On my account profile and all of the closing paperwork, I had my current address but the check was not sent there. I inquired on 9/10/19 about the missing check and supposedly a check was being reissued. Well, after 6 phone calls and the issue supposedly being escalated to the escrow dept, I STILL do not have a check! I am beyond annoyed that is has taken 3 months, and counting, to get my check. Where is my money?!?!? Of course there won't be any interest in there, but if I had been late with a payment, you know darn well that I would have been charged every late fee and interest imaginable. HORRIBLE COMPANY!

We had submitted documentation for mortgage assistance trying to save our home due to some hardships we experienced, which PHH Mortgage took over our loan this year 2019. We had submitted the same items more than once and when calling to follow up it is hard to get through to anyone who can actually help you. Most of them are useless operators that can't do anything for you. I was finally able to speak with the person assigned to my account (Shahid **) and he requested we submit another document so we did. Well even though we were under review for assistance they still had a sale date implemented so I called the day of the sale date to make sure everything was good and they had all the documentation they needed.
Shahid stated we were good. They just needed a hire date and that they were putting the foreclosure on hold due to us being reviewed for assistance and that the sale that day was not going to take place. I reconfirmed again with Shahid the sale was not going to take place that day and he confirmed no it was not and that I had nothing to worry about. I trusted what he said to me and now I find I shouldn't have believed a word anyone tells you there. After the sale was suppose to take place I pull up the website to check the status to see what it said and it stated "Back to Bene (Beneficiary's request)" so I was like okay maybe they cancelled the sale all the way around so it went back to them??
Then a couple days later I have someone showing up at my house talking about, "Oh I thought the house was vacant." I guess they will have to have the sheriff come vacate us. I was like what is going on so I called PHH Mortgage and of course for some reason they couldn't get ahold of anyone in that department even though they don't close until 3:30 p.m. my time but I refused to hang up until I talked to someone. The girl I originally spoke with when I called confirmed they had record of me calling and speaking to Shahid that day confirming the information for our assistance request package.
Finally another women who actually spoke English got on the phone and informed me my house was sold in the foreclosure sale and that there was no record of Shahid telling me that, I was furious. They will say and do anything to take people's homes. They will lie, manipulate and be very underhanded to get you to believe what they say and trust that what they are telling you is actually what is taking place. Very deceiving, especially when homeowners going through this process are already stressed, looking for answers and help and the people you go to for help are only there for their benefit preying on people who work hard every day just to survive only for them to illegally rip the roof right off their head, they don't care if you have 4 kids, a mother-in-law and nephew all living under the same roof with nowhere else to go.
Isn't there enough homelessness out there with these corrupt companies being able to get away with not following the law and committing illegal actions. Something needs to be done about this, who is the voice for the homeowners against these corrupt companies and which powers to be are willing to step up finally and hold them accountable for all of these illegal actions that they tend to turn a blind eye to.

My mortgage was modified though PHH on April 2019, and it has been a complete nightmare ever since. First, they reported my account to the credit bureau as being late one payment. I called them to clarified this error, since I've owned the property for over 11 years and never made a late payment. PHH would not reply to my multiple phone calls, every time I spend over one hour on the phone and get nowhere. To make matters worse, I sent a duplicate payment, PHH return the overpayment but when I explained that I could not cash the check, I was asked by PHH to return their check, which I did, now I am being told that they can not find the funds for over payment. 3 months of back and forth calls and emails has gotten me nowhere.
The escalation managers have been no help. One, by the name of Kate, at one point told me that my personal check had been returned with insufficient funds. When I proved to her that this was not correct, never heard from her. If I could give a negative star, as a rating I would. They do not deserve one star. My claim is still open and does not seem like it will be resolved anytime soon. Not worth the frustration.

We had the absolute misfortune of having our mortgage sold to this company. I don't even know how they are in business. They are so disorganized, they only conduct correspondence by fax, which they usually lose so you have to send at least twice. We submitted authorization for me to speak to them about the loan and every time I call I am told I'm not authorized. Setting up automatic drafts was terrible. They "lost" that document too. It's almost as if they want you to miss payments so that they can collect fees. WE'VE NEVER MISSED A PAYMENT. EVER. Fortunately, we were able to refinance away from them immediately. This company should be heavily scrutinized by regulators and authorities. There is something very scammy about them.

We have been struggling with this company for months now and getting nowhere. They do not process checks or they lose them. We have provided proof several times and tried signing up for the auto-pay, in hopes to solve the problem. Nothing happened. They actually started foreclosure procedures and we had to send all the checks into one. Once they received that large check, they told us they could not accept it and we had to wire the large amount through our bank. We had it wired. That was over a month ago. We received a letter stating the the foreclosure was canceled and we were in good standing.
On October 1st, we used the banks bill pay to pay our October payment. It has still not been processed. Today, while at work, I received a call from my bank concerned over a check for more than $5k trying to be processed! PHH tried putting through the large check that they told us they could not accept and that they told us they were sending back to us! Luckily, our bank was on it and stopped it. I am unable to talk to anyone that can provide me with why they tried to process this check and not the October monthly payment. I have called and sent several emails inquiring as to why all this continues to happen. This company cannot be trusted.

I too like so many others out here had my mortgage with Ocwen then transferred to PHH during a modification trial period which was approved thru Ocwen. Two payments were made with automatic withdrawal, then in the midst of the third payment is when PHH took over and that's when everything fell apart. I signed up for automatic withdrawals, was then accepted to start then denied a week later because they needed a void check which I didn't have and had to order some. By that time I needed to pay two months which I did, but lo and behold it was sent back because they claim it wasn't enough to cover what I owed. Are you serious? Who does that, I'm guessing they never took into account that I was going thru a modification trial period with Ocwen nor did they care.
Long story short they are foreclosing on me and I have tried reaching out to my case manager and like so many others she is never available and I get some random rep who knows nothing about my case after waiting over a half hour to get anyone to answer. I get emails and letters from PHH contradicting statements and letters I received prior. I finally contacted their supposed Attorney who is going to look into my mess with PHH and I'm hoping to be able to stop the foreclosure or My daughter (who has medical Issues) and myself who has MS will be out on the street soon.They are much worse than Ocwen. I never had any serious problems when I dealt with Ocwen about a former modification or this most current one they approved.

With Ocwen I was on auto pay, It was simple. Paid my mortgage on time every month. I was Notified that PHH took over so I faxed direct debit form to Direct Debit Dept along with cancelled check in June. Now it's October and come to find out they never took any money out. Never told me if there was a problem. Never called, emailed. So yesterday I faxed another auto pay app to the Direct Debit Dept... with another voided check. And I better not be charged any late fees! To be continued....

I was originally with Ocwen and my mortgage loan was moved to PHH. My payment was late by 7 days and they deemed my modification as unpaid and thus broken. I would really like to speak with a mortgage counselor about refinancing and other options. 7 days is really an insignificant amount of time. The lateness arises from sending a payment via postal mail without a stamp. It was then returned to me, so I made the payment electronically All prior payments were made on time.

PHH bought my mortgage from another company in June or July. I had my previous mortgage taken out of my account on the first of the month and assumed this would happen with PHH. In late July or early August I got a letter saying I had not made my payment. So I called and signed up for the autopay option for the first of the month and actually made my mortgage payment over the phone with the customer service rep I spoke to. I believe at that time they wanted me to pay a late charge and another fee for paying over the phone, I refused to pay any extra charges.
Within a week or so I received a letter from them thanking me for signing up for the autopay. The next month comes and they didn't take my payment out again. Then I get another letter saying I’m late and will owe two payments on the first of the month. I called again and told the rep I would make the payments with her over the phone and asked why they didn’t take it from my checking account on autopay. She said I was behind and they couldn’t take the payment until I was current. I reminded her that I signed up for autopay and it was up to them to take it out at this point. She also wanted to charge me for paying over the phone. I refused to pay any extra fees since this is their failure to deduct the payments from my autopay that I signed up for.
Today I received a letter in the mail for a payment with a $60 late charge. So I call yet again and told the guy I signed up for autopay and refuse to pay a late fee because they failed to take my payment out of my account yet again. I told him I wanted to talk to his manager and after being out on hold twice, I told him to have the manager call me. Because I’m done wasting my time waiting for him. He said he couldn’t promise me that he would call back because they closed in 30 minute.
This company is the worst company I have ever had to do business with. I did not seek them out, they bought my mortgage from another company and they seem like an unscrupulous business. I have already filed a complaint with the BBB and the New Jersey Attorney Generals office. My next move will be to contact a news organization to do a consumer watchdog piece on them. PHH uses unscrupulous business practices to generate additional fees.

I took a financial hit after my divorce and had a good relationship and plan with my relationship manager with Ocwen on a way forward. I explained my hardships, and we decided to submit a short sale package. Then my loan was switched to PHH. It was the worst situation I’ve ever dealt with! They would never communicate with me on what they needed. I submitted the request in Feb and would call for updates only to be told updated or more documentation was needed. And it was a different requirement with every phone call.
By the time everything was finally submitted, it was June and then I was told I had to go through a modification process which I did not want! The process took so long. I lost potential buyer of the property! My relationship manager never calls me. When I call, the person I talk to has no idea what’s going on with my account and request package. They transfer to another department where I’m placed on hold for 30 minutes then I either have to hang up or get disconnected. I’ve sent emails and don’t get responses or just canned automated messages. However, they call me every morning on a Saturday asking for a payment and then I explained I submitted a package and request a status but they can’t help me. Do not go with this company.

I am another dissatisfied former OCWEN customer. On Oct 3 2019, I called PHH and requested an early partial-payment of my 2019 property taxes. PHH's representative assured me the partial payment was scheduled and would be made on Oct 10 2019. Today is Oct 17 2019. My county has not received PHH's payment, and I have not been contacted by PHH with an explanation. On calling customer service again on Oct 17 2019, "Jessica", employee ID "**", was unable to explain the delay, would not transfer me to the correct contact, and stated she would "send an e-mail" to PHH's "Tax Department" requesting the payment... which is apparently the same failed process from Oct 3rd. I am not at all confident the results will be any different.

If you ever pay off a loan with PHH Mortgage, get a lien release immediately. If you try to get it later, they will not help you. They will promise to help but nothing ever gets done. PHH was contacted in July, 2019 about the lien release in preparation for the sale of our house. In August, I called and was promised a lien release 15 days after they received my letter requesting it. They acknowledge receiving my letter on Sept. 4th. I called September 23 and they hadn't done anything with it. I talked to KR1. He said he would fax the lien release to me. He did not do that. I called on 9/24 and talked to ZG5, then requested a manager, who was Francis DQ4. I called on 9/27 and talked to BQ0 after being on hold for 37 minutes. He hung up on me. I called on 9/28 and talked to BS5, who was very rude. I called on 10/1 and talked to CH3 who said a reconveyance team or something was working on it.
I talked to Francis again, who then said "your loan must be with another company." Totally untrue as how did PHH have my loan # and know my Social Security #. He quickly changed his tune. Now, he said they were preparing the lien release documents. I called on 10/9 and talked to RX8. I called on 10/14 and talked to RF4. He promised me the lien release preparation documents within 24 hours as the county now has them. Never happened. Now, a woman called me and said Francis is taking a vacation. I asked about his supervisor and she said he is on vacation as well. She said the the lien release documents have not been sent to the county, totally contradicting earlier conversations.
I have asked for the compliance team, both verbally and in writing. Total refusal to listen to me. All of this is causing a loss to me of $9.25 per day as my proceeds from the sale of my house can't be released to me in order to apply to my new house loan. I would appreciate getting this lien release in a timely manner and being reimbursed for the financial loss this delay has caused (there are plenty of recorded calls for the compliance team to listen to).

I had a loan with Ocwen for 7 years. It was transferred to PHH in May. In July, I was laid off and proactively called to say, “I’ve been laid off. I am making the July payment and will need some assistance until I can find a new job. Is there a payment plan option?” I was told not to make the July payment. Miss the payment and apply for a loan modification - a rep would send me the paperwork, ASAP. After multiple calls from me asking where was the paperwork, it finally showed up in September! September! I filled it out and sent it in the same day. Then started collection phone calls saying I am in foreclosure. Totally freaked out, I made a payment (that was credited for July).
A rep called and said no, don’t make payments while being reviewed for loan modification because your entire process will need to be re-evaluated if so. So I put stop payment on the check. Then I started demanding to speak to my assigned “case manager”, who I have never once spoke to since that initial July date. He never picks up and after 30 minutes of being on hold, instead, random reps answer and I have to reexplain everything, and they give me conflicting and inaccurate information. Finally, I filed a formal complaint a day later (today!). My case manager calls me to say that a huge balloon payment is due to reinstate the loan and the loan modification will probably be denied. WTH. This was a set up and I blindly walked right into it.

For four years, I dealt with Ocwen. Paid my mortgage on time, never had a problem. As soon as PHH took over, the problems began. PHH overpaid my taxes by several thousand dollars, then claimed my escrow was short, and jacked up my monthly payment from $740 to $940. I made TWELVE phone calls, waited on hold for over an hour total, was cutoff three times, and then sent THREE certified letters, all trying to get this fixed. And, there's no mystery: I have all of the tax records and payments to prove the mistake made by PHH. The best part? The fax number on the PHH website doesn't work, nor does their "email" address. The escalation phone number actually goes to a Walmart gift card helpline. Exasperated, I'm now talking with my PA State Representative who is in contact with the state banking regulators.

Ocwen sold the note for my deceased mother's reverse mortgage to PHH. Since that time, they've claimed (falsely) that we've failed to provide information which I can prove we have provided. They claimed we didn't report monthly status on the sale of the property (proven to be false), claimed we didn't supply proof of insurance (also proven to be false), issued hazard insurance which we successfully proved they must refund to the estate, and now they are continuing to mail notices about the refund check to my deceased mother's address, after the property has been sold and their note has been satisfied, despite me calling multiple times and submitting their change of address form.
I know they're just hoping the mail forwarding order will expire, so when they send the check (incorrectly) to the decedent's former property address, they can claim it was returned to them as unforwardable, and hang onto the 3286 they owe the estate a few months longer while I continue to chase them down for what is owed back to the state.

I was recently moved to PHH Mortgage from a previous provider. This company has been a horror to work with. They have refused to uphold the agreement to follow my previously established payment plan, even though they stated that I would be "grandfathered" in. They did follow through for the first few months of taking my mortgage from the previous company, but recently stopped without notification and now keep telling me that they never set me up with this type of payment plan. I struggled with this company right away and again am struggling.

I had a mortgage modification done Feb 2019 by Ocwen. Made my payments on time and even early in most cases. On my mortgage statement after the modification was complete there was “accessed fees”. I called Ocwen and they said those should not have been on there and they would have them removed. Then they sold out to PHH Mortgage. I’ve called PHH multiple times to find out why this was still there. The first time I was told it was late fees from when it was Ocwen. There were not late fees. All late fees prior to the modification went away and all behind payments when to the end of the loan. Called again and was told it was Appraisal fees before the loan was transferred. Those went to the end of the loan also.
Called a third time and now they are saying that the fee is the Modification Attorney fees. The fees are now accruing interest And going up but they say they are not. Those also where fees that go on the end. They are saying it is my responsibility. Nothing in my modification paper work says anything about paying any of those things above. Know this right now PHH I didn’t agree to these fees and I’m not paying them ever. PHH is Joke. Pretty certain they are scammers and the FBI needs to get in on this.

My mother has a home loan with PHH Mortgage and her significant other passed away unexpectedly and was the sole income earner. Knowing that she will not be able to pay her mortgage due to no longer having an income, she immediately reached out to PHH for help. She explained that she needed to find a job but is concerned about missing her payments until she has money coming in. They said they would be able to offer her assistance options after she completes a packet and provides her details and death certificate. She did so right away and heard nothing back.
She has called several times to talk to her assigned "case manager" with no answer or ability to leave a message. She has attempted to call the generic line with no actual help, just offers to leave her case manager a message - which she never returns. Meanwhile, she receives notices of non payment and her amount due is growing all the while they say they offer assistance options but nobody will actually tell you what they are or give the time of day to even return a call. This is the most frustrating thing a person could deal with after the loss of a loved one. I am appalled at how they treat their customers.

I was informed by PHH that the escrow shortage was caused by their payout to two insurance companies. I had switched insurance to another company, but the new agent failed to inform the old company of the pending change so two insurance companies were paid--of which I remained unaware for 5 months. The old company has agreed to send me a check for a refund. That refund will go to PHH which paid the two companies in good faith.

Just got an escrow analysis for the coming year. PHH is demanding $2240.43 upfront or $62.23 for the next 36 months. Past escrow adjustments have been $500 to $600, driven mainly by property tax increases. Allowing for a 10% increase in my tax bill, I'd expect an escrow increase of $620.00. Since when are escrow shortages figures on a three year basis with the amount due in one year? PHH took 4 months to properly account for one of my payments that went to the wrong company address in a past escrow adjustment and billed me for late fees. While that eventually got settled, reaching the right person with the power to solve that issue took months.

I have had my my mortgage with OCWEN for almost 7 years. I recently got converted to PHH and have been less than impressed. First of all they are incredibly difficult to get someone on the phone. Incredibly long wait times. The thing that really bothered me is we had a bi-weekly payment plan splitting our mortgage into two even payments a month which also worked out to be an extra payment a year. For 7 yrs that has been our normal. Now I have been told that is not an option under the PHH name. How is that possible if it's all under the Ocwen platform.

My experience with PHH mortgage has been a nightmare. I discovered, in March, that I had a past-due tax bill from 2007 (in their defense, my mortgage was not with them at the time, but they bought the loan, so it is now their responsibility). My lender has always paid my taxes so I reached out to PHH to get this resolved. They investigated and eventually I was told they paid the delinquent tax bill (the records show it was paid towards the end of March). I assumed the case was closed.
In July, I checked my county website, and to my surprise, I was still on the delinquent list! I emailed my tax assessor's office to confirm the delinquency. My assessor's office requested I get confirmation of the payment from my lender and bring it in, so they can remove my name. Easy peasy right? WRONG! I called PHH the middle of July, they checked their records and found that they paid my delinquent tax bill twice (in error) but both checks were returned in May. I asked when they received the checks did they call my county tax department to find out why? The answer was no. The money was deposited in my escrow account. Had I not called, nothing would have been done.
Negatives: No one is pro-active, they are more reactive. It is impossible to talk to someone in the tax department- all messages go through the call center and they relay the answers back to you. The average hold time is 25 minutes but truthfully there have been times I have been holding for 45 or longer- they do not have an automated call back system (they should get w/the times). Most people are working and can not hold for that long! There is no option to leave a voicemail message for a return call. My case has been with an escalation manager, Marie, for two months. I still don't have a resolution and I have only received an update twice from her. I typically have to initiate the call for a status.
I just need PHH to contact the assessor's office to find out how much is owed, if anything and PAY IT, since the money is in my escrow account. If they are told I do not have a past due balance (as I have been told over the phone by Marie) then please forward this written confirmation to me, so I can take it in and have my name removed. It is now October and I am no further than I was in March. I still can't believe I am dealing with this. Absolutely unbelievable and unacceptable.

If I could give 0 stars I would. My Ocwen loan was transferred to PHH Mortgage Services recently. I wired a payoff payment of $60K+ to PHH and followed all of their instructions exactly. Almost 30 days later, they have no record of the payment and as a customer, I can't get past anyone higher than a customer service representative. I am put on endless hold for "escalation supervisors.". At this point I am beginning to believe that they don't exist. My calls keep getting "disconnected." After my third call this morning, suddenly I get a message stating that the system is down due to "unforseen technical difficulties." Probably a coincidence, but very frustrating. I sense no urgency on the part of PHH customer service representatives. I am currently working with the attorney I keep on retainer to determine a path forward.

It is absolutely impossible to get the help you need from these people. They are rude and demeaning. I told the rep I spoke to this morning that my financial situation had changed because my daughter had a baby and is now living with me. Her response to a new baby was, “Im really sorry to hear that.” I’ve called twice to try and get help and have been talked down to because I’m one month (now half a month) behind. And after I sent the first payment by mail, they threatened foreclosure. I just want to get caught up without any threats. It’s been a nightmare- where did our nice Ocwen reps go?

I called in on 9/16/19 trying to pay on my account. I was told that due to the account the least they could accept was $1,248.34. I let person I spoke know that I didn’t have that and asked when is the last day that I can pay the amount. She said 9/30/19, anytime after that the amount would be different. I called back on 9/30/19 as instructed and was told my account was sent to foreclosure today. I mentioned my conversation from 9/16/19 and I was told that I was provided false information on that date. I asked to speak with a supervisor to discuss the matter.
The Supervisor got on the phone and told me I’d have to contact the attorney and get a reinstatement quote and they could not do anything. It seems like the computation they provide is never the same and you don’t know what to believe. When my account was acquired I received statements with charges that were confusing and no one could explain anything. Ocwen was bad but this company is horrible.

Horrible customer service. Unable to understand due language barriers. I explained my situation, and they still forwarded to attorneys for foreclosure. Each call takes over 45 minutes and then I get the runaround or hang up on. Agent lied and said I had to reinstate with attorney office because they couldn't accept payments from day one, unless I agree to pay forward my taxes. I have always paid my own taxes and insurance. I have miss a few times being late and in the hospital, Ocwen would pay it and I would pay them right back. PHH lied and said Ocwen escrow my taxes & insurance and that was a lie. It never happen. PHH will not expect none of my payments towards my mortgage, due to me not paying double taxes and my taxes are already paid for 2019, thanks to me. I had to give them all my information.
I called PHH the following day, and every week and still no help. They lie when they say they will look into it, I haven’t received no help yet and it’s been 7 months since they took over from my understanding. I never received a 30 days notice that my mortgage was switching to PHH or any mortgage documents from PHH until months later. They are trying to delay, add additional fees, so they can attempt to foreclosure on my home. People, get your attorneys involved right away. It’s has caused undue stress and hardship in my family.

Ocwen was a good company to have our mortgage with, there were no problems, but when they sold my loan to PHH, I've already gotten several letters saying they are going to foreclose on our house because our payment is short every single month. When I ask why, they say it's because of our escrow or property taxes or blah blah blah. It never makes sense and I'm $80 short one month and then the next month I'm $106 short. Mind you, we use a bi-weekly program that pays our payment, the same amount, every two weeks for us. Seems pretty fishy to me, when we were never short with Ocwen.
Then if I want to pay the extra over the phone it's $17. If I want to pay online, I have to make a full payment. I was told that when a company buys loans from another that they pass those fees they are charged onto the customer disguised as other stuff. Don't know if it's true or not, but I feel like they are talking in circles about why my payment keeps going up. I will be taking out a 401K loan asap to get away from all this bs.

After speaking to someone who told us my husband gave permission to do this we asked to speak to management. The lady went back and listened to the recorded conversation to tell us he did not authorize the transaction. She said it would be address and NSF funds refunded. Fast forward 5 days. Guess what they did it again. Tried to take the payment out a second time. We are having to put a stop pay on anything thru PHH unless we tell the bank to pay because of this ordeal.

My mortgage was with Ocwen. I was on a bi-weekly pay plan where as I paid 1/2 of my Mortgage bi weekly (I could pay off my Mortgage with the extra payments applied to my loan) for a few years w/extra payment applied & accepted to my loan balance. I continued with my bi weekly payments with PHH (with their blessings), but just this week I was told over the phone that a letter was sent to me notifying me of the cancellation of the bi weekly program earlier this year, but I never rec'd letter.
My payments were received by PHH & applied to my mortgage, but I was told that I owe over $2,000 as of today. Now I am told that the payment for the month should have been rec'd on the 1st of the month and I will need to pay the $1,060 by the 1st of Month or I will need to pay a $39.00 late fee. Why did this just come up? Are they trying to force a foreclosure on me? I am 66 yrs old and believe they are trying steal my home because of the equity. I also was told a day or two earlier by a rep from Ocwen that I did not have anything to worry about my Mortgage was current. This is driving me crazy.

Apparently all the information from Ocwen didn’t transfer over and PHH mortgage is trying to charge my grandfather more than the modification amount he was approved for. I have called PHH several times and I either get hung up on or told someone will call me back within 48 hours with more information. Neither has happened.

In August 2019, my loan was sold to PHH. I had already paid my August payment to the original owner of the loan on July 22nd. This occurred as I was in the process of refinancing my loan to take advantage of the lower rates. PHH improperly applied the August payment to escrow on August 13th, making my principal balance higher than it should have been. I discovered this issue on September 13th, as I was working with the loan officer for the refinance. I called and spoke with supervisor at the time and was told they would put in a request to have it fixed in 7-10 business days, but that they would attempt to escalate it.
After not hearing anything, I called back on September 18th at 11am, and was informed that no request had been submitted on my account. I was then transferred to the escalation department to work with a representative there named Taylor. I let her know that I work a job that doesn't allow me to carry my phone on my between 9 and 5, so communication would need to be after hours or via email. Taylor promised to send me an email with contact details that day, so I could call directly and she could send me updates during the work day. After not receiving any communication on the 18th, I called back the escalation department the 19th at 7pm, and after an hour on hold and learned that Taylor had not submitted the request or sent an email.
After still not receiving any communication I called back on the 20th at 4pm, and spoke with another representative that was unable to connect me to Taylor. It took 45 minutes on hold to reach anyone in the escalation department. I received a templated email with no account details at 4:30pm on the 20th. I sent an email requesting information, of which I have yet to receive a response to upon writing this complaint on the 26th. On the 24th at 5:30pm, I called the escalation department again. The request had been submitted and should have been resolved on the 25th. On the 25th, I called at 9:30. The escalation department line sent me into a hold, and after an hour of waiting, I called the main line at 10:30. That line mentioned the office was closed and hung up after the message.
On today's date, the 26th of September at 8am, I checked online again to see if my principal had been updated. For the first time, the system said that I had not made any payments, and that my account details would be available after I made my first payment. I called the escalation department at 8:15, and spent another 30 minutes on hold waiting to speak to someone. I was told the request had not yet been approved, but that Taylor would email me when it had been approved, and let me know I was okay to request a payoff statement. I expressed my frustration with the lack of communication, and asked to speak with a supervisor. I was told that all supervisors were in meetings and could not be reached.
I called back again at 5:30, today, on September 26th, and spent 2 hours on hold, with my call dropping twice, once after 30 minutes, another after 25 minutes, while trying to reach the escalation department. Once I finally had someone on the phone, they told me the process had been approved, but that I would need to call back on the morning at 8 am to confirm that changes had properly gone through. I feel like the lack of communication and transparency about my account, the long wait times, the inaccessibility to login to the website unless you are on Internet Explorer or using a Chrome incognito browser, and the lack of customer service, is deliberately in place to discourage people from being able to easily access information on their accounts. Unless you are as determined as I have been, calling 1-2x a day, spending 30 minutes - 2 hours on hold, you may not see any action to resolve your account issues.
In their responses to customers on other sites, in particular the Better Business Bureau, they have indicated that their escalation department would be reaching out, but given my experience, and the lack of communication provided in my situation, this is likely to be a blatant falsehood. At this point, my refinance closing will be after the 1st of October, meaning my mortgage will be $350 higher than it should have if (1) the August payment had been applied correctly, (2) If my original request on September 13th had been processed in a timely manner.

Updated on 01/01/2021: My experience with Phh Mortgage has been the worst in my life. It began in 2019. I filed for a modification, which I believe was my first mistake. I signed a contract for a modification for July 2019..sent in my payment with the contract... Funny thing is they received the contract but not my check (which was attached to the contract) someone to have removed it from the contract. And that's when the nightmare began...
I sent in my check for my August payment and it cleared my bank at the end of August. I looked at that back of the check. It was time stamped August 5, 2019. The rude man I talked to me told me it wasn't received until Aug 26, 2019. He told me I should've called to find out why my checks weren't clearing the bank, and it was, "NO NO you didn't send it.." Made it my fault for their carelessness. I told him if he received the contract he received the check and asked what happened to it. He continued to say they didn't get.
So September 4th, I was served foreclosure papers from the sheriffs. He apologized for having to do such a deed. And I got on the phone with PHH mortgage. Of course they continued to denied receiving my payments. Before I mailed the check both times I made a copy of it.. Thank goodness I did...for proof. There was a couple of people who began to believe and worked with me. But it was long drawn out process. By this point it was a hopeless situation and I was so depressed I couldn't even celebrate the holidays. Didn't want to put up my Christmas tree. But finally did the week of Christmas. At least I could give my Kids and Grandkids a Christmas before losing the house that I had been paying on for over 30 years.
I continued to work with a couple of people who was a great help. But I was still going to be foreclosed the week of Thanksgiving and then it was extended to Jan 4, 2020. I received a call telling me if I pay the missed modification payments by December 31, 2019 which I did. On January 4th,2020 came and I received papers telling me the foreclosure was complete and even though I made those payments as per requested. I still lost the house. As I was preparing to live on the streets and so depressed I didn't know if I was coming and going. I received a phone call that the modification decision was reversed and I had to fill out a new contract and I did so and I received them. Returned them as I should and continued to make my payments.
The first set of papers received included my deceased husband's name on them and I called them and I asked about his signature. She said no it wasn't necessary and I responded that was good, I wasn't sure how I could get him to sign them. So I sign them, had them notarized and returned them. A couple of weeks later I got a new set of papers stating that they had sent the wrong ones because they included my husband's name. So I once again filled them out and had them notarized and returned them and waited for a response and about 3 wks later I received the contract in the mail. The contract I received from them was the first contract with his name on them. I thought what the heck and believe this company is so unorganized.. But I started to make my payments like I was supposed to do...
I continued to follow Credit Karma and it states I was late making my payments March, April, May, June 2020. (This information should be updated with Credit Karma and has not been). I made my payments and mailed them priority mail and they were received within 3 days of receiving them. Not understanding why I was late. (Sending my payments priority mail) was the best thing I did because I didn't want another year of them stating they never received them.
I continued to receive phone calls stating I was late and receiving foreclosure and notes on my door. I was a nervous wreck every time I received a letter and phone call from them. So with the help of a friend I was able to pay off this mortgage December 2020 and to be away from them forever. I truly believe they feed off people who are struggling and will steal people's homes from them. I do not recommend this company to anyone. I lived this nightmare they created for me. I wish you all who are stuck with this company the best. I can finally live and not be haunted.
Original Review: I received a letter this afternoon regarding foreclosure on my house. I called PHH this afternoon, regarding this letter. I returned my modification contract in the envelope that was enclosed with the contract, I also included my check. They received the contract but not my check, it was in the envelope. I told the very rude customer service rep. I told him the check was enclosed as requested per the contract, well the check mysteriously disappeared from the envelope. I kept a copy of the contract as well as the check that was included. He told me I should have called to see if they received the payment.
I said, "You received the contract. You should have received the check as well..." It was, "No no. It is your responsibility." Seriously. I sent the contract prior to July 1st... Check never went through the bank, but the 2nd check mailed July 26, was received but didn't go through until 8/29/2019. The check is time stamped 8/5/2019 which proves it was received before they say. They include a sheet as to where to mail your payments and such. I did as the paper said. Now I will lose my house, which I am sure they don't care.

Original Review: Sept. 24, 2019
I have been switched from Ocwen (Ocwen's reputation left some to be desired too from what I've heard) to this outfit. PHH so called Mortgage Company? I can see ahead I believe as what they are up to. Maybe I'm wrong, but it appears they try to make it hard for a person to make mortgage payments so eventually they can forclose on a person. Why they would want do this I'm not completely sure? They must make money on forclose??
I have been switched recently from Ocwen to PHH. I had auto pay with Ocwen paying for years with no problem. Ocwen did cut auto pay for a short time when I filed bankruptcy. They said during that period I couldn't pay that way, but after my bankruptcy was over I could pay that way again, and I did with no problems, and have been for few years now. Soon as I ended up with PHH they cut my auto pay without warning. I noticed the payment was not taken out by the middle of the month, it is usually taken out by the first few days of each month, it is due on the first and the middle of month had arrived and it still had not been taken out. So I thought if this not paid soon they will accusing me of being late on my mortgage payment, which I think is what they want really?? So I paid it manually online.
First I tried my debit card and it was rejected multiple times. So I did their Western Union thing, which did work. I was expecting an extra charge which it says there might be one, turned out there was none. So since I found out that that my auto pay had been removed without my knowledge I set it back up again. It appeared on their website that my next payment will be automatically taken out on the forth of October 2019.
A few days later I got a letter in the mail saying the same thing. Then three days after that I got another letter in the mail again saying that as per MY request that my auto pay has been removed. I had just set it up so I did not request it be removed. So I called and talked with a person with an accent that makes it a bit more difficult to understand what they are saying. Anyway they are telling me that because I filed bankruptcy a few years ago that I am not eligible for auto pay, but if I go to my bank and have them call them they are supposed to be able to set up something?? I'm skeptical of this, it makes no sense, why if I can set up auto pay online why would I need to go to my bank and have them call them to set it up, seems like the same thing to me, plus they already said I was not eligible for auto pay since I filled bankruptcy, weird??
The second letter I have gotten says that they will tell me how I can pay my mortgage later and loan is due on the 19th of October. I asked the woman on the phone why is it due on the 19th. It's due on the first of the month. No answer from her as to why it says that, but my loan is due on the first she said. At the moment I don't know if it will be taken out automatically when next payment is due or I'll have manually pay it again, or if I will even be able to pay online from some of the other reviews posted on here I've read. I do feel they will try to make it so that in time I will get behind on my mortgage which is what they had hoped for I believe by removing auto pay without telling me in the first place.
To sum all this up, to me it makes no sense as to why they do not want my auto pay, you would think they would welcome that. It's like they are almost guaranteed their money. Only reason I can see is they are up to no good, they don't want the money so it seems. There are an awful lot of bad reviews on here and on some other sites of this company as well.

Since they have taken over my mother's Ocwen, what was GREAT to deal with, PHH has been a Nightmare. EVERY month issues with either sending bill 4 DAYS before Due, or since we figured they would be Late with bill, we Sent payment in EARLY, and for the LAST 3 MONTHS have to call to have the payment NOT to Principal BUT for monthly payment. This month sent September payment in Early August to make sure payment was received for September, not trusting PHH Mortgage to Not mess it up.
Well we did receive a payment for September Which we had already sent on August 09, 2019, BUT turns out it was credited As PRINCIPAL even though had WRITTEN on check "FOR September MONTHLY Payment". Quickly called PHH Mortgage and after a while was told Okay, would apply that would change the last payment from Principal to September Payment. Fast forward to today, September 23, 2019, bill says "LATE PAYMENT". So PHH Mortgage messed up and DIDN'T CHANGE last payment to September MONTHLY PAYMENT as I was told on the phone AFTER being on phone 20 minutes at LEAST. Talk about headache and incompetent, this company has been the WORST since taking over payments from Ocwen.

In 2010 we requested a loan modification. We qualified and during the process PHH Mortgage intentionally delayed the process, put us in foreclosure, then added $10,000.00 in attorney fees to the loan. We made the payments based on the correct amount because they told us they were going to fix it. In September of 2012, they stopped taking out payments and put us in foreclosure again, and added another $10,000.00 in attorney fees to the loan. We had to file BK to stop the foreclosure and then they added another $10,000.00 in Attorney fees to the loan.
The original loan amount was $98,000.00. We have paid over $85,000.00 in payments after 11 years of payments and PHH Mortgage is reporting to the Credit Agencies that we still owe $109,000.00. They refuse to send us an account ledger that can be read and they also force placed mortgage insurance on the loan in the amount of $2,700.00.

It takes an Army just to make a payment online..and God forbid you call them to make a payment, they charge you for that too. I have my statements from Ocwen right before the change over that clearly show ZERO late fees. These were all waived during my repayment program and was stated to me during that time that they would NOT be applied.
NOW PHH is billing me for things that should not be on it. This company does not work with you. I am contacting my atty on this matter as well. PHH will argue with you every step of the way. They are always right. This company has the worst reviews (fraud) on them in America. And reading all of their replies here...nothing but robots.

Updated on 10/25/2019: I just finished speaking to PHH Mortgage escalation manager Shamant, employee ID **, whom advise me that our claim was denied. So even though PHH made an accounting error, tried to cover it up by charging us over $2400 out of pocket and taking over $1300 from out escrow, I would not be receiving the money back. This happened after almost 2 months of phone calls back and forth with PHH Mortgage, despite supporting evidence that an error was made by PHH, with an admission of that error by the escalation manager. So I will be on every platform I can find monthly, giving PHH Mortgage the rating they deserve. Quite frankly, even a one star review will be too much for a company as incompetent as PHH Mortgage.
Original Review: When my wife and I bought our new home, we were financed through Guaranteed Rate. Approximately 1 year later we got a call from our Mortgage agent, who advised us we could refinance for a lower rate and save a considerable sum of money. Prior to that call, our mortgage was recently sold to PHH. They had our mortgage for 1 month and made it the worst possible experience. Their customer service personnel are wildly unprofessional and condescending. We were notified by our previous mortgage company of the change but received no paperwork from PHH.
My wife had to call to get payment information in order to avoid a late payment. The woman she spoke to called her "Honey" and seemed unconcerned about the lack of communication from PHH. Additionally, we had to make several phone calls to ensure that our county taxes would be paid on time. No one was able to give us firm information on what date they would be paid.
Their finance department is obviously incompetent, evident by the $2400 check I had to submit (Which, thankfully, Dan from Guaranteed Rate told us about, or PHH would have sent us to collections with no idea anything was wrong). They noted they collected almost $4000 from us that they had not, causing us to have to pay the title company additional money following our refinance. Alicia, a PHH payment specialist, is most likely the least helpful customer service agent on the planet. She expected the folks from Guaranteed Rate to fix the problem created by PHH. She only contacted us directly to take ownership and explain the problem after Guaranteed Rate included us in an email to her telling her that her handling of the situation was unacceptable. The gist of her call when she finally did contact us was to apologize and say "I'm glad you are back at Guaranteed Rate where you will get better customer service."
In the end, we were notified on 9/20 that they wanted the money to resolve the issue by 9/23. Their inattention to detail cost us a lot of money out of pocket. Most people would be blindsided by having to come up with that amount on such short notice. In summary, there are plenty of places to use for your mortgage needs. PHH has earned the 1 star reviews. I had no choice being bought by PHH, but if you do, please take 5 mins to read the reviews from the BBB and use PHH with caution.

So I refinance my home they got paid off in full and the account was closed.... but remember I have $1000 sitting there in my impound account. They owe back to me after the property was refinanced.

We waited until the next statement to be sure they held our loan and tried again to make a payment by phone and again was told we did not have a loan number with them. We received a letter stating we were in preforcloser and needed to send payment certified funds. We did this but payment was denied.
When I called one again to find out how to send payment I was now told I was no longer authorized for them to speak to because the authorization from my spouse did not transfer from Ocwen.

Our mortgage was sold to PHH a few months before we had water damage to our home. After dealing with the insurance company (a whole separate headache), our insurance check had to be signed by PHH and they control distributions. The first disbursement took approximately one month to receive because of the ridiculous amount of time it takes to get from point A to point B in the process. Now we have reached the 50% point, and need our inspection and next disbursement. We were told 5 business days by the call center for the inspector to call us to set up an appointment. That was 6 business days ago. We received a phone call this morning asking if we had been contacted by the inspector. Now, because the ball was apparently dropped somewhere along the way, we are being told it's 7-10 days for a phone call from the inspector. Every time we call about anything, we're given a different answer for how long it will take.
Yet, every month we receive a phone call reminding us to pay our mortgage payment. We have never missed or been later than the grace period in the time we have been with PHH. The whole process to get the money released to fix our house is absolutely unacceptable. The fact PHH can just keep changing how long they have on their end is unacceptable. We have been put of our house for 6 months at this point and we just want to go home.

Updated on 09/25/2019: They did remove the 21.67 for late payments, but still stand that they send me a check. I requested that if they do indeed have a check sent to me and cashed by me, to send me a copy of said check. As of yet, and since they did not ever send a check to me, they will never have this check to show me. They are still in the wrong and still need to correct my mortgage statements. They will still get their auto payment, and I will still contact other agencies to get this matter resolved. I will never go away.
Updated on 09/20/2019: It has been a week since I posted the first gripe, promised to be contacted by someone, and yet still getting the same runaround from this company. No change in my mortgage loan payments and no contacts either. A man's word is his bond, so what does this say for PHH.
Original Review: How to rate them? To start they received two payments in July. I requested one back for the next month, here it is September, no check, promised at least three times, talked to their daytime supervisor, biggest liar I have ever done business, does not know anything but lies, talked to the customer rep, say that all my payments are accounted for, also a lie, because I received a statement in September that says I am 898,27 behind, which is **. They took the auto payment in September, and still charged me a late fee of 21.67. How can an auto payment be late? If you are for real, you will clear this up, and most assuredly fire some of the people that work for you and handle clients, and get some that can at least tell the truth. John ** Account **

I wanted to refinance my mortgage through PHH since I have been an Ocwen customer for over 10 years. This process has been nothing but painful. I started the process at the beginning of July and here it is middle of September and nowhere near closing yet. I have given everything I was asked to submit, and because of the length of time it's taking, I have to re-submit updated statements. The excuse I'm being given is there is a high volume of people refinancing. That really is not my problem. The volume is an operational issue which should have been addressed if anyone in the company is looking at performance metrics.
Secondly, your customer service attention is non existent. The contact I have had with PHH has all been initiated by me calling and emailing to find out the status of my loan. I have refinanced several times throughout the years and I have to say this is the worst experience I have ever had. Needless to say, I'm at the end of my tolerance of this process and I don't appreciate this kind of treatment.

Where do I begin. Ocwen/PHH FAILED TO NOTIFY US THAT THEY Closed/Deleted our Ocwen account (2nd Mortgage) which includes 10 years of records/statements, payments, etc. Then created a new account under their new name PHH mortgage. We got No warning, no letter, no notification whatsoever. So when it was time to pay our bill, we had nowhere to pay. After days of phone calls, countless hours, and frustration, they were able to find that PHH created a brand new account, with no history prior to June 2019. Luckily we paid before the due date. Thankfully, we got a confirmation.... Ok, so it's been 4 months with PHH and their statements are ridiculously confusing. I guess where there's confusion their is profit.
There are questionable line items, for example: My total payment each month is $87.79. I round my payments up to $100.00. Therefore the extra at 12.21 should be applied to Principal. This is the case for every single bill I pay, including my main mortgage. Here's how PHH applied my September Payment. $51.69 "Principal Payment", $45.62 "Interest" and then here are the $2.69 "Payment" = $100.00. There is another line item called "Assessed Expense" for $9.49 which inflates my Principle. The numbers don't add up! And I suspect PHH will be facing yet another class action lawsuit... The Government needs to shut these fools down once and for all! My Outstanding balance is wrong, and my payments are broken down is such a weird way. There no question in my mind that the $2.69 (payment) and and the $9.49 (assessment) are nothing more than FRAUD and THEFT! I have a call into our Secretory of State (Georgia) and a lawyer.

I called to let them know I was going to get caught up and after waiting about 30 minutes on hold to speak with someone, they said I could do a loan modification, taking the payments I’m behind and putting them to the back of my loan. So I had faxed in all of the requested paperwork they needed. A week later I called to see how the process was going because I was told it would take up to 30 days to review. When I called they said they had only received some of the paperwork needed (check stubs, financial form etc..) so I re faxed the paperwork in again. I call back the following day and they said they still had not received it, the person I spoke with this time told me I could email or upload the paperwork on a website. So I set up an account on loansolutioncenter.com and I emailed everything in and uploaded it to the website.
Well needless to say I call back and the lady I spoke with told me they had all the paperwork and it was in processing. Their calls are recorded, I even asked her 3 times, "Are you sure you have all my paperwork because on my end on the loan solution website it says my financial form is missing." She let me know they had everything and it was in processing now. So another week goes by and I call again. I was told that they never received my financial form and the deadline has now been passed. So I have to reapply for a loan modification and re send everything in. I hope they pull the recordings of every phone call I had with PHH because I was faxing, emailing and uploading all of the requested paperwork in, I was told they had received everything they needed only to be told I had to reapply for a loan modification.
The week after I was told they never started the loan modification because they never received my financial disclosure and the date had passed, my account was put to Grey & Associates for early foreclosure for being 4 months behind. Grey and Associates send me paperwork stating I owe 2700.00 by September 4th. How is that possible when I was only behind 1600.00 the last week of August. Now today I get another form from Grey & Associates stating I owe 4,412.40 due by September 20th. So in one week the balance I owed went up 1,712 in one week and they are giving me one week to pay it. Not 30 days but one week. My mortgage payment is only 545.00 a month when I applied for the loan modification I was only behind 3 months, owing 1600.00.
When Grey & Associates took over once I was 4 months behind. I received paperwork stating I owe 2700.00 by September 4th. Now today is September 11th and I just received paperwork from Grey & Associates stating I now owe 4,412.40 due by September 20th. This cannot be legal!! This company and Grey & Associates set you up to fail and lose your home. I was so close to coming up with the payment of 1600 then another mortgage payment Now within two weeks I owe 4,412.40.

My mortgage got moved over from Ocwen and it has been the worst experience. I never knew that it would be so difficult to actually force a company to take my money.

I can’t sign up for auto-debit because they won’t allow it, I can’t make online payments and I can’t make automated phone payments according to them.
They want me to mail it in (last time I mailed it they lost the checks for 2 months and it took 4 phone calls for them to do something about it) or they want to use customer service and charge 17 dollars for it. I have tried to get a payoff statement twice now so I can close out a loan but still waiting.. They say 10 days, but they send a letter and then say 10 more days.

I was assured I had a case manager to contact with any questions. I still have been unable to speak with her.
I received a notification today via email, that said there’s new activity on my request. It said it was closed. I never expected anything on the mail, nobody ever called me, and I am beginning to see that PHH is just the clean up crew for Ocwen. They sent my loan there to eventually foreclose, but would not blemish Ocwen, since they have been in a lot trouble for foreclosure and modification. I called today, and spoke with an alternative representative. She informed me the request was denied, and there are no repayment plans with PHH. They only allow repayment plans of 1 month behind. I am 9 months (actually, 7 1/2 since they never applied my last payment, it is sitting in unapplied funds).
So now here I am. Sick to death that my only option to avoid foreclosure is to come up with 8 monthly payments. They do not offer an extended repayment plan. Even if I can afford 1 1/2 monthly payment amount now. PHH does not have any care manager that EVER tried to contact me. I fully intend to keep my home. I just cannot believe how maniacal this company is. I have never in my life experienced less customer care than I have with PHH. I will be reaching out to my state department and ensure I am not falling prey to unscrupulous business practice.

I was originally with Ocwen Morgage Company for years for my 2nd mortgage. My loan was sent over to PHH Mortgage this summer (2019) for some reason. PHH is supposed to be connected with Ocwen. I have had nothing but major problems with them. They will not accept my payment being automatically taken from my checking account, which is the way I have always paid, because I had filed bankruptcy six years ago. I elected to continue paying my mortgages and have done so faithfully.
I have tried to contact PHH in New Jersey but all the offices have been closed except maybe some small outfit that works for them, not sure because I have not been able to get ahold of them either. When I call the number on the paperwork I received notifying me of the change all I get are people in India who can only read from a script and know nothing beyond that. They cannot help me. The only choice I have is to pay by Western Union which is an additional cost and an additional headache. On top of that after I was turned over to PHH Ocwen put me down as a negative on my credit reports. This makes no sense, I was in good standing with them and their payments were taken out on a regular basis, no late pmts no missed pmts. It appears to me this is some shady outfit and I think Ocwen really screwed their customers over. I can't find a head office for either Ocwen or PHH Morgage. BEWARE!

We had a mortgage through Ocwen for many years without issue. In November 2018, we lost our home in the Camp Fire of California, a disaster that destroyed 90% of our town. Our mortgage was promptly transferred to PHH, who lost our deferment and proceeded to send us foreclosure pamphlets monthly for six months, despite us being current with our mortgage. We have a check from our insurance and they have refused to accept it for almost eight months now. We have filled out REAMS of paperwork, requests for exceptions, affidavits on the loss of our home, to no avail. They still won't take the check. We have explained that we are now homeless with our two children until they take this check, because we can't qualify for another home loan to buy or rebuild while we still have a full mortgage with PHH.
Doesn't matter, they still won't take the check. We are now to the point where every time I call, I am placed on a 20-35 minute hold, then told my "account specialist" is unavailable and no one else can speak with me. At that point my call is either disconnected or I leave a message, which has to date never been returned, weeks later. I am so absolutely disgusted with this company. How is it even legal to refuse to accept an insurance check, especially on a current, up to date mortgage? Our family has struggled to pay our monthly mortgage, hoping to keep our credit intact and to be able to get another loan. We have done everything PHH has asked of us, and each time they deny our insurance check or any sort of loan modification. I would not recommend PHH to ANYONE. Rotten to the core.

Our mortgage was with Ocwen then taken over by PHH which apparently is owned by Ocwen. As many others our loan was taken over in June however our account could not be found multiple calls were made to them to determine how we need to remit payment but they couldn’t find my account and was told because of the amount of accounts they took over to bear with them and continue to follow up continued to call in July and still told the same thing. Finally on July 31st 2019 We spoke with someone who advised our account had been forwarded to an attorney and would need to speak with them to move forward.
After speaking with them We were then told to bring the account current. Our only recourse would be to pay the payments they hadn’t Rex’d plus attorney fees which we only had the payments with our mortgage. We called Phh again and was told we could do a 25 minute interview to qualify for a modification. We did that and was told paperwork would be sent to us to complete. We didn't get this package until after the attorney set a sale date on our home. We weren’t even made aware of the sale date from the attorney until 12 days later. We have had people call message and even come to my door and ask if they could buy our home. We have been totally humiliated and victimized by this.
We have been forced to file ch 13 to stop the foreclosure. We have reached out to Fannie Mae and have been instructed to contact the attorney general FTC and CFPB... which we are in the process of doing so. We also have contacted a real estate attorney as well and are working hard to put an end to this madness.

Says I have my own agent that would work with me which is a lie.
I've read many reviews here. And there are only 4 responses. Which tells me we are answered via auto reply. And obviously Consumer Affairs doesn't have much pull otherwise there might be a change. I've been in this house for 12 years! And the mortgage has been bought and sold a few times. And I've had bumpy times with them all.

All of a sudden, in May, I get notified that my payment is late and a late fee was imposed. Impossible. I call, after an hour on the phone they tell me that the first half of my payment was applied to extra principal instead of to my payment. They will reverse the fee and reapply the payment. They reapplies the payment but didn’t reverse the fee. I call again. Another hour on the phone.same thing. Following month the same thing. At this point I’m pissed!! I call asking for a manager. I’m told everything was fixed.
Following month the same thing. Call for the 5th time. Each call an hour long. She tells me that any additional payments made after the monthly payment has been applied is now automatically being sent to extra principal. WTH??? I was never notified of this change. She tells me the payment will be reversed and applied properly. I changed the way I make my payments now. Just monthly instead of half a payment twice a month. But they still say my August payment hasn’t been made!!! Yes!!! Yes it has!!! They reversed the late fee (partially) but didn’t fix the payment.

We have had a mortgage through this company for a very long time and have made timely payments every month. This month we got a statement in the mail with a late fee assessed requiring that we send out a payment for two-month's worth. When we called our bank to check on transaction history it turned out the check had cleared under PHH Mortgage. After calling several times and finally getting someone who seemed to know how to do her job, we figured out that our payment was applied to the wrong mortgage (they do not know which account number) and someone else’s check was applied to our mortgage. She directed us to get a copy of the check from from our bank in order to see who’s mortgage we paid for so that the transaction could be reversed.
After going to the bank we find out that PHH submitted a “check 21” meaning it’s electronic and only PHH has access to the check image. I called back again and was transferred to an “escalation manager” (whatever that means) and after waiting on hold for 30 minutes and not speaking to anyone, I still have no answer.

This company took two months to respond to an emailed dispute, refuses to contact me via email as requested (I have 25% hearing and have great difficulty hearing on a telephone). Not an issue with other creditors. I had been behind in my mortgage and have recently caught it all up. PHH Mortgage has locked my online access to my account and does not respond to emails. They refuse to accommodate someone with a disability. PHH, I know you see this, do I really need to file a complaint with the Attorney Generals of Ohio and Pennsylvania?
Original review: Zero response from an email sent 10 days ago. My mortgage was transferred to phh from ocwen. Ocwen was a joke itself and phh is taking up where they left off. I emailed them with my issue and how and when they were getting paid, explained I had a hearing issue in which I require someone who speaks good English, also told them that since they are a debt collector (use of the mini miranda statement advises as such) and I was not dealing with that attitude. I did advise them to cease and desist on a cell number they were calling, that has happened but they can not even respond to an email?

Our mortgage was transferred from Ocwen to PHH. We decided to refinance as our loan is adjustable and payment recently increased. Simple rate and term, no cash out, thought it would be a fast and easy process since they already service our loan. We started the loan application on June 27, 2019. The loan officer locked our loan for 90 days, which should have been a red flag, but didn't think too much of it at the time. I asked not to have an appraisal done until the loan is approved, just to be on a safe side as it is $550. I was told that as long as appraisal is not done, we will get the $550 back if something doesn't work out. Well, mid August, we still do not have an approval which was promised a month earlier.
The loan processor, Ronel **, started ignoring our emails and calls for status. The last conversation I had with her, she suggested we could shop around, which we did, and very happy we did because got an approval in a couple of days and are ready to sign closing docs. I emailed the processor and requested to cancel the loan and a refund of $550 since we never had an appraisal done. No response. Called and left a message, no response. In the meantime, the loan officer changed from Miguel to Stephen **, not sure why.
I attempted to call Stephen on 8/21/19, but got a hold of someone by the name of Richard who got him manager involved to help me. I don't remember the managers name but she promised to take care of it and email me her contact information, which she never did. Stephen called back the same day and I told him I am requesting to cancel the loan, explained the entire story, told him that some manager promised to take care of cancelling the loan. He said he will follow up to make sure it's done. I emailed him Friday morning as I have not heard anything from the manager or him. I attempted to call him this morning, then called his manager and left a message as I feel I am getting nowhere.
It's past 5 pm EST, Monday 8/26/19, as I am typing this, and thus far received no response and no refund back to our credit card. I don't know who else to contact as they don't have a corporate number listed. I don't know how they stay in business. My last hope is to dispute the charge with my credit card, hopefully they will be able to help somehow to get ahold of someone at PHH to refund us. With the horrible experience we had, I will never do business with PHH again and would caution everyone to stay as far away as possible from this company.

Updated on 10/01/2019: I wrote a review not too long ago in hopes that it would help us clear up the troubles we were having with the company. Within a couple days I finally received a phone call and was able to inform someone that we had sent our payments and they were just not getting processed. I felt like she heard my concerns and was ready to help. However, I had to repeat myself day after day and spending hours on the phone. I was asked for proof of the payments and I sent copies. Each time I would still get the answer that we were behind in payments and in order to avoid foreclosure would need to pay in full. Very frustrating! I finally gave up and sent in one large check for all the months due, in return asking for my previous checks to be returned to me. Some were returned but not all.
Once they received the larger check, they then asked for the next month and it again had to be all in one but now wired or MoneyGram. I had to now take off of work and wire the money. Understand in all this it was never a matter of us not having the money but them not taking it! I confirmed by email and by phone the night before on the amount we owed. That money was sent and received last Friday by their bank. On Monday, they decided to add attorney fees and now state we are behind a month!
I called again to review this and was told it would be investigated and adjusted. I was also told I would receive a call back but instead I received an email stating we owed them attorney fees. We will not pay fees for a fault of PHH's. Each time I call I get they will review it and nothing further. I have also asked several times how we can ensure this will not continue to happen. I tried signing up for the automatic payments but nothing happens. At some point, I suppose it's best to contact an attorney myself.
Original Review: Our Loan was sold to Ocwen and we never really had a problem with them. Now that it has switched to PHH we have had nothing but problems! We have sent all check through our banks bill pay each month and they have not processed them. We have tried calling and emailing them with no answers. The money is still in our account waiting for the checks to be put through. We even verified the address several times. We just recently received something in the mail stating we were behind in payments and foreclosure was about to be processed.
They then sent back our August 2nd payment (but none of the ones before that) and stated it all needed to be paid at once. Fine. I had the bank cut a check for one large amount and cancelled the previous checks. They still have not processed it! We have never received a statement or phone call. We have even pointed out that they have one number on the account that has never belonged to us and they still have not removed it.

My mortgage was with Ocwen for 12 years without a problem. For the last 2 years I had direct payments taken from my account every 2 weeks, with a little extra to go to principal. Worked perfectly! Yes, there were a couple of extra payments each year that would go completely to principal which we were very happy about. I tried to adopt the same process with PHH. I immediately found that they had no way to make bi-weekly payment, only payments set to a certain day in the month.
That's a bummer, but I got over it and decided to do bi-weekly payments (I'm paid bi-weekly) from my bank account directly. Well, this mucked them up apparently and all my payments kept applying to the principal and my account was showing passed due. This could not be, so I talked to customer service on numerous occasions to manually move the funds out of principal and into suspense since it couldn't be applied to the amount due if it wasn't the full amount due. Okay... fine... I will live with that and just set up a monthly draft to occur on the 5th of each month.
The 5th of the month made me nervous because I always like to pay my amount due prior to the 1st to ensure it is on-time but apparently PHH can't take the monthly payment until after the 1st, if you send it on the 30th or the 31st it will all go to the principal... ugh! FINE, just take it on the 5th of each month for the total amount due, I will just make manual payments from my bank account to equal the additional principal we like to pay each month. What a relief... I can rest easy... we have it worked out...
NOPE!!! Right after the first payment on the 5th I receive an ambiguous letter that my automatic payment has been cancelled due to the possible 6 listed reasons. Instead of a specific letter that says exactly why mine was cancelled! I go online and schedule the automatic payment again... So I call, waste another 30 minutes of my life to be told that it is because I had a bankruptcy 10 years ago... yes, I know. Does that mean I am unable to make automatic payments?? The representative told me "maybe" and to "see if the next months autopay cancels again". Then she asked if there was anything yes she could help me with... ummmmm... I guess not! If you can stay clear of this company do yourself a favor and run! I wish I could go back to Ocwen!!

My mortgage was sold to PHH from Ocwen (another story). Apparently, my payment was increased by $17 a month due to a shortage on my escrow account. No notice went to me, so I am making my normal payment. Well PHH holds my payment (which is $3475) and doesn't apply it until the next month when I make my payment again. So I have this rolling late of $17, then $34, then 51, etc... I pulled my original note and nowhere on there does it say that I need to pay more than the principal and interest payment due $2097.68. So I don't even know if this is legal, to mark me late for a shortage on my escrow account, and reassess it, and not notice me.... According to the note, the principal and interest payment is to be applied first.

This company has failed to draft my automatic mortgage payments for at least 4 months now. I've caught it in time the first 3 incidents and have made the payment before it was late. That was until last month. Each time I'm assured that the next month my payment will be drafted without issue, and each month they fail to do it. I should have known not to trust the payment would be drafted since they failed me so often. Each month a customer service rep tells me with more certainty that they can see I'm enrolled in auto payments, but can't explain why they fail to do it.
I sent a request to PHH's crack research team to ensure there will be no negative reporting to the credit bureaus from their mistake, but all I received was a letter saying they weren't waiving the late fee. I have no faith in this organization as this issue is clearly their fault, but won't rectify the situation. Though I haven't had the opportunity to serve them, I will be pursuing all legal remedies.

So the gentleman put me on a brief hold so that he could verify this with his boss. Very soon he was back with me to explain that PHH would indeed try the payment once again.
So there was nothing that I needed to do now. That was good news. While I was on the phone, he also told me that my payment amount would be going down in the near future. So that was even more good news. He didn't have to do this extra work because he had already served me. I believe you have a true asset in this gentleman. He is an excellent representative of PHH. You could certainly use him to train other telephone people in your company. Thank you so much, Stephen

Ocwen transferred my mortgage to PHH. All was fine until I received a call today Telling me they are trying to collect my Aug. payment. So I check with my bank, as I make payments electronically and had no problem for the months leading up this. My bank showed the payment was made on the 2nd of the month. Then the caller looked up my payments and found they had applied it to some other account making my account late. She would not tell me where it had been applied, just that she would correct the error and that I was not late, and hung up. I do not trust these people and would not recommend them to anyone.

Updated on 12/04/2019: I was a customer of Ocwen, which I never had a problem. Then PHH came into the picture, they kept sending me refinance information. I started the process in August, it took 3 weeks after my initial call for someone to even get back to me. They said we qualified for a VA loan, which I questioned because my husband had less than a year of service. They said it will be fine. The rules are you must have 2 years of service. After 60 days, they came back and said it was denied. There was NO communication during this time. I sent at least 5 emails for updates and called several times, no one would respond. We started on the regular refinance.
After receiving our appraisal they stated some improvements which was fine. I got them fixed but one problem, the weather in Ohio is 30 degrees and below, they stated we had to have a large fence painted. They would not sign off until this was done. NO company would do this in the winter. We were over 120 days into this process with them and I finally had enough and closed with PHH.
I was able to go to another company that will have my refinance done within 25 days. They went over every little detail with me - to include what goes on during the appraisal. They asked detailed questions, were texting and emailing me to get all the information. PHH did NONE of this, they would take weeks to reply to a simple email. Each time I was told there was high volume and they don't have the staff. Each week I would get emails and letters in the mail telling me to refinance. I paid over $500 and got nothing from PHH. I can't wait to be done with them and move on to another better company that actually responds. The best part was my interest rate the new company was 1% lower than what PHH gave me.
Original review: I contacted PHH to do a refinance. The beginning process was fine. Once I submitted my information. I received no response. I waited 10 days and finally called. I sat on hold for 2 hours and 15 minutes. The person I spoke with could not help but sent an email to processor to contact me. I waited 5 days and received no response. I sent 2 follow up emails 2 days apart still no response. I had great service from Ocwen, PHH is terrible. Now looking to refinance via another company. I would not suggest doing any kind of refinancing with PHH.

Ocwen acccount owner and do not have an official completed trial modification. In February 2019 I was approved for a trial modification beginning first payment April 1, 2019. Under a trial modification I have until the end of the month to submit the payment. The account was transferred over to PHH on April 10th. April 30th I went to Western Union to submit my first payment and spent this time on my lunch hour, after 5 attempts Western Union would not accept the payment stating it was the wrong billing account number that PHH provided on the package I received in the mail. I called twice while trying to make this payment and the service at PHH was horrible.
No one could assist me. All they suggested was to make the payment over the phone with my checking account. Under a trial plan no one will accept a trial plan payment over the phone not even Ocwen. All payment must be made by overnight processing, Western Union or bank check. Never ever a personal checking account. Even though I did try this route I contacted PHH at 8:15 pm in the evening on April 30th, sat on the phone for 45 minutes and sat on the phone while the phone was literally disconnected. Tells me that PHH shut the phone lines down, the wait time was 45 minutes and decreased as the minutes wound down till 9:00 pm. Contacted PHH again I had to start the process all over again for a loan modification and was denied on July 19th because the April 2019 payment was missed. Not my fault but the fault of PHH Mortgage services.
Then to make matters worse Chapter 13 bankruptcy was filed in 2008 after the death of my mother to save the home and property. Everything was discharged and today PHH Mortgage service attacked me and my Experian by adding this account to my Experian. PHH Mortgage service holds nothing from me that shows my signature that the trial modification was completed. My credit score reduced by 75 points and have screwed my credit profile and my chances to even think of re financing and trying to get away from PHH the mortgage ** of the north east.
After today the fire in me is not over and my next complaint is with the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau. You can cover up the smell of ** by changing names. What smells like ** will always smell like **. The rest of the positive reviews on this site for PHH Mortgage are a joke. Probably written by the employees of the company. My heart aches for the employees who have to work for an organization that screws the lives of home owners and their credit reports. I am a victim here.

My mortgage was transferred to PHH in June 2019 from Ocwen. It has been nothing short of a nightmare dealing with PHH. Customer service phone number always has a long wait. I've been dropped multiple times after being on hold for 10+ minutes to only have to start process over. Sometimes put on hold and no one ever comes back on the line! Paperwork and processing for modification was delayed due to transition, credit reporting has been inaccurate for months and has seriously impacted our credit history. Multiple emails and faxes have been sent with credit reporting agency documentation and there has been no follow-up communication from PHH.
Most recently loan was reviewed with an off-scheduled escrow (after loan modification completed) PMI was added and increased our payment. When I called and questioned, I asked for and was told I would be sent paperwork of original loan indicating we had PMI and the parameters of such. I never received paperwork requested. Loan was reviewed again this month with an off-scheduled escrow and now PMI has fallen off. That raises red flags for me on how my loan is being managed. Very frustrating to deal with.

Updated on 01/22/2020: My loan was transferred to PHH during a modification. I finished the trial payments and made the first regular payment and PHH randomly changed my payment. After countless calls that got straightened out and I’ve been paying monthly. Now PHH says I’m 5 months behind when I am current. Nobody can help and it’s affected my credit score.
Original Review: I had a modification with Ocwen. March and April trial payment went to Ocwen and the May went to PHH. It was suppose to be final on June 1 with the first regular payment due June 1. I never received the paperwork until mid June. I was told payments were still due even if it wasn’t final. I was assured it was all internal things they were working out. I then received an escrow analysis that increased my payment by $600/mth. I was assured that would all be straightened out in the final mod but am now told different. I am at my wit’s end.

They applied the entire check to the principal instead of the June payment. PHH now says that they can’t apply it to the June payment. They must leave it as applied to the principal. This is ridiculous as I don’t have extra payment money lying around. They said I could make it up by paying extra each month. Why? Ocwen messed up. They need to fix this. THIS IS WRONG!
I just got thru a two month period of PHH insisting I didn’t have homeowners insurance. I did. I kept calling the insurance company every time I received another letter telling me I was not complying because I had no insurance. The insurance company said they faxed the paperwork to them several times and did it again and again. They had the correct fax number. It was the one PHH gave me. Finally I don’t know why, they said they found the insurance paperwork. This has been a very bad experience. I want this fixed.

My deceased mother's HELOC was transferred from Ocwen to PHH. The deed to the home is in my name and has been for years. I am going through a Refinance for the property and PHH REFUSES to provide a payoff/closeout to me or to the title company. After weeks of calling multiple times, being left on hold, to only have their system drop the call, speaking to multiple incompetent employees who all have different instructions to which I complied with them all, PHH STILL refuses to simply provide me with the needed documentation to PAY OFF the HELOC. What company does not want to be paid?
One representatives tells me to fax over the death certificate and deed. I do this, they receive it, and then do nothing. I call 3 days later to follow-up they say oh we have received it but it's in limbo because we have not sent you a package. Fine, they send the "package" which consist of exactly 1 letter requesting...wait for it...the documentation I already sent.
Not only am I dealing with my mother's death, but having to also deal with PHH has literally broken my entire spirit. And to think, all I want is a Payoff Letter. How crazy does that sound? Oh but wait they WILL accept my monthly payments, but will not provide a payoff. They told me I can send a check in for what I THINK the amount is, but they can not provide a payoff without the original borrower's signature...even though she is dead. If this is how they treat people trying to pay them off I would hate to see how they treat their long term mortgage customers.

We got a letter from Ocwen stating that PHH would be taking over our loan June 1, 2019. When I tried to get on the PHH website, it kept saying my social and account number didn't match. Then I got locked out. I finally got in touch with them and they unlocked it. In the meantime I couldn't make a payment because I couldn't figure out how to get on the website, which I was already late on my payment. I never received any phone calls or anything to try and resolve the problem.
I finally talked to someone and they had said I missed a payment from OCWEN in April (You can't pull up payments from OCWEN now), and since they don't accept "partial payments", I had to do a loan modification to help me get caught up, which they tell me takes approx. 30 days, which will add another month. So, I have not made a payment since May (So they say). Now I have to wait for a decision on the loan modification I did on July 26th. Still no approval or denial. That will add another month in arrears. I am stressed and worried and I cannot get anyone to help me with this. I am at a loss right now.

Original Review: Aug. 10, 2019
I was contacted by PHH Mortgage and offered a chance to refinance my home and consolidate my debt. As a disabled Veteran of the United States Military I was horrified by the way that I was treated by the Loan Processing personnel. The communication was horrible! Michael ** informed me that all of my credibility checked out and I was good to proceed with the appraisal process. After spending my money to have my home appraised, as Michael had informed me too, from a company of their choice which cost 545.00, I moved into the loan phase of the process. During this phase I worked with Michael ** whom informed that my debt to income ratio was acceptable however, he would just need a few other documents to continue with the process. I submitted the documents as requested only to constantly be asked for more information.
After going through this process for more than sixty days, I began to get frustrated because the documents that were continually being requested did not seem relevant to the refinance process. At this moment of great frustration I got into a heated dispute with Michael ** concerning my marital status from 15 years ago. Michael ** informed me during our conference call that he would personally deny my loan and that it would never go to the underwriters if I did not provide him with information that was not relevant to my loan. I asked to speak with his supervisor. I spoke with Michael ** supervisor which informed me that she would take over the process due to the heated discussion between Michael ** and I. She requested my marital status documents which I sent to her with the belief from what she had told me that I would be moving forward with the process.
On August 8, 2019, she called me and informed me that my loan was denied due to debt/income ratio which was one of the first requirements needed to start this entire process. I was told initially that my debt/income ratio was acceptable which is why I was told to pay for an appraisal out of pocket. On August 9th I called and spoke with Marvin **. Upon him reviewing my documents, he told me my loan had been denied since July 30th by Michael ** for a different reason other than what I was informed of by his supervisor. I had been deceived into believing that I was being helped by the Supervisor when in actuality my loan had already been denied by Michael ** due to our argument and his personal feelings following our heated discussion. I asked Marvin ** for the information to the corporate division and he refused to provide this information. I am horrified that this company treats disabled veterans and soldiers so horribly.
I will be going to the nearest Military installation housing authority and informing all persons necessary of the way that PHH Mortgage company is treating US soldiers and veterans. Additionally, I will be petitioning to have you all placed on the military blacklist, so that no other soldier will be robbed of their hard earned monies only to be denied due personal bias feelings!

We have been trying to get PHH to sign a replat for over 5 months. Our neighbor put his house up for sale and during the survey found that the property lines were not marked correct when both of us built and part of his house was built on our property. We were just getting ready to put our house on the market and move as well. We hired a state certified surveyor to work up a property exchange to give them a portion of our lot in the front section in exchange for an equal amount in the rear of the lot. All was drawn up by the state certified surveyor. The documents were drawn up were approved by the county and prepared for us to send to our mortgage companies. Our neighbors was signed off by his mortgage company in less than 2 weeks.
Ours is 2 days shy of 5 months and still not signed off. Most of the time our calls are not answered or returned. When the calls are answered, they say they will check on it, or there is some new document they need, or something else needs done. Both us and our neighbors either lost or about to lose buyers on our houses over them prolonging signing the replat. It has went on so long that we now have to get the county to resign the replat. I scheduled a meeting with an attorney next week to start the process to take them to court.
