Ocwen satisfaction. = benifit and forethought Ocwen's 15 Point Loan Servicing Customer Commitment Plan Wellington Kansas

From: http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/294/RipOff0294291.htm

This started as an e-mail to an Attorney friend of mine. At the time had no clue of their destructive history. Hey its Trav. Leave it to us to get lost in the cracks, extreme negligence on the part of our mortgage holder. H&R Block sold loan to OCWEN within the 1st month. Loan fixed for 3 years, adj. 1st statement from new mortgage holder has changed interest rate to 10% instead of 8. Perhaps simple mistake. No I was about to partake in the darkest Dance Macabre that would render the twilight zone infantile. Having 1st to get the correct rate 8% back and forth w/ incorrect pay off. Amazingly I received over 15 diminutive assurances from at least 3 supervisors that they were well within their rights to cram a cactus up my bum without the benefit and forethought of lubrication. My take on this is well prior to exploring Newton and the law of physics. We need to commence with baby steps and first examine benefit and forethought. Let’s all cheer for what attracted us here in the first place Owcen’s customer pledge and mission reassurance. In other words, which cacti would you prefer, prickly hard straight thorns, or the extremely popular charmin soft feel razor wire. Consumer Ombudsman (Hun, my interpritation of an Ombudsman has always been a German logger, Paul Bunion type) Mission Statement Who butters this guy’s toast each morning, our advocate and voice, more like covert damage control and information gathering..Ocwen is committed to providing superior customer service. We offer a wide variety of payment options and numerous ways for our customers to contact us, including our automated telephone system, e-mail or talking to one of our Customer Relations agents. To continue our efforts to ensure our customers' satisfaction, the Consumer Ombudsman position has been created to provide each of our customers with a resource to assist with unresolved concerns and issues. If you are unsatisfied with the servicing of your loan, or you do not feel that an issue has been resolved adequately, the Consumer Ombudsman will serve as your advocate. The Consumer Ombudsman is not involved in the servicing of your loan. The Ombudsman is, however, knowledgeable about loan servicing and the related laws, regulations and industry practices. As your advocate, the Ombudsman will review your concerns and Ocwen's response. The Ombudsman will question Ocwen's servicing department on any areas of the servicing of your loan that do not appear fair, reasonable and proper. As appropriate, the Ombudsman will make recommendations to Ocwen's Senior Management as to how your complaint should be resolved. The Ombudsman will communicate the findings and Ocwen's resolution of the matter directly to you. The Consumer Ombudsman will not respond to first-time issues. If you have had no previous contact with Ocwen concerning your issue, please contact our Customer Relations Department for assistance at (800) 746-2936 or you may click here for mailing addresses for general correspondence or complaints.You may contact the Ocwen Consumer Ombudsman a variety of ways as provided below: By email at Ombudsman By phone at (800) 390-4656 By fax at (866) 771-5152 By mail at: Ocwen Financial CorporationAttn P. O. Box 785061Orlando, FL 32878-5061 mmm Below is our statement, from 9 of 07. See the 4K + payment 9-17. Account current. The meticulous few somehow forgot to inform their counsel the loan was current and about to be paid off. (Benefit and forethought)? My banker politly pressed me for the reason of current forecloursure proceedings on the same property and how could I even ask a friend to associate what many view as so called “ Mortgage Kite-ing”. As of 10/01/07 loan is current. Some how regardless of their impenetrable safeguards and fanatical tenure upon benefit and forethought, no one passed this on to their counsel: thus our careing and meticulous friend and in many cases only friend. The one that crushes the American dream void of remorse, calessly reverting to comacasi techniques in fact rumer has it they are the 1st born damnation of Enron and Worldcom. We live in a small rual community close to the OK-KS line. For us the gangs all here. Mathew, Mark, Luke and even John himself still educate the masses via media outlets. We were served a foreclosure notice that was pinned to my front door. Still w/ me. Ok kind of pissed when one of my golf buddies asked if everything was ok as he read the bad news the public legal posting in the dally paper. Notice ran 12-14-07. Over two 1/2 months later, publicly humiliated, due to Ocwen’s negligence and as I have come to find out widely practice customer service.Only one question though, would my original fiduciary relationship with H&R Block be exposed to any liability. Not due to their right and intent to sell the folder, but by continuing to sell to Ocwen irrespective of the well-known history. All right sick of this again. O.K. two questions, can anybody help?ThanksEnsumbledeux: ever thankful for Owcen’s gracious gift to all mankind: The 15 point customer satisfaction journey that sooths us along our way to the Pearly Gates, behind which live benefit and forethought.
