About Countrywide Financial
Countrywide Financial is one of the best companies we work with. We have a great relationship with them. They are willing to work with the home owner to get their situation resolved. They work in a timely manner if a sale date has been set to get the file reviewed and assigned to a negotiator. They do have a process they go through to help home owners with assistance. Each file has to be pre-qualified and then goes through a review and assignment process. We know the process and prepare a detailed plan of action tailored to meet your needs and to help you with your foreclosure.
You can see by the plans we have brokered below for our clients. We can get you set up with a Loan Modification or a Repayment Plan to stop the foreclosure.
From their website:
"Countrywide is a diversified financial services company with mortgage banking at its core. As Americas leading home loan lender, Countrywide was built on the philosophy that those desiring the American dream deserve the opportunity to own a home. Since 1969, Countrywide has worked diligently to break down the barriers to homeownership and help millions of American families and individuals become homeowners."

Bank of America is the worst company to give assistance , they claim they are their to help their clients with as much as possible this is not true, I have been trying to get a loan modification for some time now, they keep telling me they are reviewing and then I get a call from them stating I am in Foreclosure, tell me where they are reviewing it or trying to assist.

Countrywide now owned by Bank of America was not willing to work with us because we were current with our mortgage. We knew we could not afford to continue making two mortgage payments so we tried to rent the property to avoid default and save our credit. After they learned that we were renting the property they got really nasty with us saying "you want us to increase your profit margin". We were NOT making a PROFIT, we were just trying to honor the agreement to pay even though we could NOT afford it for long! We were losing money every month and headed for default. When our savings ran out we could no longer pay. They sent us a notice of default with options to pursue within 30 days. When we called the number we were supposed to contact, they NEVER answered the phone or messages. Less than 15 days later they sent us a notice of foreclosure sale. Clearly they were only interested in ONE option!

'it is no longer countrywide, I felt some of the lenders were deceiving if they knew what was going on, since they worked with the builder and everyone claims the builders and loan company already knew things were bad, however I chose to entrust my welfare to them, I had asked for assistance prior to surgery/major fall/job loss/surgery my income was 75,000, first they said I owed too much, my answer was, you gave me the loan,,,,,,hello? the worst case scenario has been the most recent ordeal with Las Flores, could not even reach the loan company, was inputting the account number that they were foreclosing on, transferred to Robo bank, anyway could not get any information what so ever; caused problems on all my accounts, the people at Bank of America threaten to foreclose on my properties, bac financial, just lies to you or doesn't answer the phone for more than one and half hours, more than once that has happened. Actually I found the people at Countrywide nicer than Bank of America/BAC, so whatever.......

Countrywide was provided a newspaper article the doctors had done because of their being irate with the ins. company. I wanted Countrywide to know I was telling the truth. Their comment: There is nothing we can do." My husband has gotten another job and I am getting one also. All we want is to get a second mortgage from someone and reinstate this loan. A sale date has been set for February 1, 2010. Our hearing was January 7, 2010. We are out of time. Thanks

I contacted them on 6/24 and was told by them that they would send me a packet of information to assist in this process of keeping my home. Terrence told me that I didn't need to worry about my home. They would remove it from foreclosure. When I called back on 10/19 I was told my house was scheduled to be sold. I was told on 2 occasions that I didn't need to worry about it because it was being worked on and that it would not be sold. I thought they were telling the truth when in fact it was being sold. I have offered to pay 12K as well as increase my monthly payment and they won't budge. They told me through the Obama plan my mortgage would go to 2K per month. I asked for help, was told I was ok, now in 4 days my family and I will be homeless.

Countrywide screwed us....Now we are in the process of screwing them. They refused to work with us to modify our mortgage. Therefore I am making sure when they take the house back they will NOT make any money on it. I am in the process of gutting out the house. I am selling everything!! Kitchen cabinets, plumbling fixtures, water heater, furnace, central air, carpet, wood floors, interior doors, ceiling fans, etc. It's ALL going!! Ha Ha! See what you jerks can get for it when I am done. Thanks for nothing Countrywide.

When I got to the person I needed they were going to work out a payment plan but then I came home to find a notice of trustee's sale on my gate.

I was approved for a workout plan and it was cancelled because the notary included my middle initial on the notary page. After returning their calls to clear up the issue they cancelled the plan the same day without talking to me. I was told they would put sign me up again for a workout but when I called back after not hearing from them I was told it was never resubmitted. I don't think they want to help.

Buyer's perspective of a short sale. This is outrageous...Still no response from them...Here's the latest: Hi Vickie, I just wanted to introduce myself. I will be the primary contact for this file. I would like to know what your time frame is for review. The buyers and sellers are getting restless and I need to give them an update. I understand that this file was just assigned to you on 6/13/09, but I was hoping that you could push this one to the top of your stack so we can get a quick response. Below is a timeline of the ling life of this file. We had originally been to your short sale process was 45 to 90 days. We are now somewhere around day 140 with no end in site. Please help. I faxed the short sale packet to Country Wide on Jan 27th and again on Feb 3rd. I was told that it was uploaded into your system on Feb 1st and that the Short Sale process took any where from 45 to 90 days. On Feb 4th the file was opened and I was told it would take 7 to 10 business days to assign. After several requests for assignment to a negotiator the file was finally assigned on March 6th to a Mark Lewis. I was told he had 15 days to review. On March 13th the file was then re-assigned to a Celia Medrano, and I was also told she had 15 days to review the file. When I called in for a status update on 4/15/09 I was told that they needed updated pay stubs and bank statements. I faxed the requested documents in on 4/20/09. On May 4th I received an email from Cilia asking for updated pay stubs and bank statements because the ones I had sent in at the end of Jan were out of date and for the sellers to fill out and sign a Form 1126. I emailed Celia the requested documents on May 6th. On May 12th (2 months after Celia was assigned the file) our file was assigned to Stacey Johnson a second phase negotiator, I was told she would have 30 days to review the file. I called in today June 15th to get an update on the file and was told that Stacey's work load was to much and she had passed the file to you for review.

I have been told every month since December that a workout would be sent, yet every time I call they give me the runaround and retake information and start the process over. Every time! There should be a class action suit regarding their inability to receive information and follow through on it.

I went out on disability in November and returned in December, but while I was out I called Countrywide (now banko f america) asking about what options were available. I faxed over all this paperwork etc. and he said I should get something in about 30 days. In December, my work messed up both my checks in December, causing both to be late therefore, creating more of a snowball effect and also messing up my insurance where they had to double payments in Feb and March to correct it even though it wasn't my fault. In March I tried to send a payment to them and they rejected it....I never received anything by mail from them. I called again the middle of March and talked to a guy and I faxed over all new information along with an IRS form and he said I should hear by April 9th. The week after April 9th I was at home and to my suprise I received a notice of intent to Accelerate and it gave me exactly 1 month to pay it up front. I was like what??? So I called about a week later and spoke to a lady, Floretta, and explained and she said the account wasn't coded properly otherwise the letter would not of went out. So she said she coded it, had me re-submit for a 3rd time and said she was sending this to a loan person, but also mentioned a "proposed plan" that if approved I would send in 5000.00 and it would modify my loan for roughly the same amount monthly (which I didn't care I just want my house) and I wold receive something in 10 business days, which should of been May 8th. The week before memorial weekend, I sent them 5000.00 even though, Still today have not gotten one piece of correspondence or heard from them, and the rejected that amount too....

We just need a little help to get to August of this year with payments. Our credit is horrible because I suffer from Bipolar disorder. The rep told us that the income vs expenses are not the only thing they go by....they also go by credit score - this was the first time being late since we got the loan. Horrible!

by Anonymous From West Palm Beach, FL on April 22, 2009
They do not agree to discuss with me either loan modification or deed in Lieu. They would like me 1st to go busted (fail to pay monthly payments and trash my credit record) before dealing with me. This may cause loosing my job and having even harsher time. Currently this property is rented, but I am loosing about $700 a month for the last 2 years and it has drained our savings to a minimum. I will go busted within 3 month if nothing will be done.

We have had our loan with Countrywide for almost 10 years and have never been treated like this. Some people you talk with seem like they will go above and beyond to help you while I have talked with some there that pretty much tell you you are a sorry individual because you had hard times. I feel that they don't care right now because they themselves have been in trouble and have had Bank of America buy them out. I just would like them to share in the responsibility of what has happened to our loan. Businesses that don't admit to their mistakes makes it hard to trust them anymore.

Countrywide has been misleading and extremely difficult to deal with. They don't give reasons for there decisions or clear instructions. They tell you one thing and don't follow through. I know someone who works there and he said they are trained to just deny everything and every request sent in. He said employees are in & out like revolving doors. I'm totally frustrated. Been in my home 6 yrs with on time payments and now am losing it??




by Jimmie Pavon-Richardson From Lithonia, GA on April 04, 2009
In all fairness I feel the new modification programs has everyone frustrated, so I can't really rate them bad because everyone I spoke to was pleasant even if sometimes the information wasn't correct. I also feel the training for the new programs isn't completed yet. I have been qualified now 3 times and my home has a sale date, so I believe lack of knowledge plays a significant role in this confusion. God is STILL in control.

I believe that Countrywide Home Loans have been under investigation for predatory lending practices, to protect themselves they force people into foreclosure, and they don't have to answer any questions about bailout monies that was given to help assist us with our homes. I qualify for the 31% reduction and I have lived in this resident since 3/89 and I shouldn't be forced out of my home because someone at Countrywide Home Loan took the monies that I have paid to them. I have had to deal with Dawn Fisher, Agness or Michelle Vernon and guess what none of them are there in the Retention Department at this point. I have taken the Housing Education Counseling as requested and guess what they aren't corrective as stated either. No, one have helped us, and I asked how my mortgage loan kept going up when I wasn't late, never gotten a reply, and now this. God has to be in charge of things of this nature. I deserve a home, I worked all my life and I still able to make my mortgage, I shouldn't be forced to sale my home; because of some inside the company taking it upon themselves to foreclose on my property. Yes, I need assist if you can assist us. Best Regards,

We need help and we get slapped in the face when thing get bad. They rather have another foreclosure on there hands instead of trying to help a good customer.

When I was two months behind I asked for assitance through a loan modification, on Aug. 10th I was approved and they told me that I should receive a package in the mail with in 10 days. That did not happen and I proactivly called them every week to get an update. This went on until Dec. 1st, five months of them telling me that my paper work was just behind and would be in the mail any day. At one time I spoke to the vice president of the loan team and he not only told me that he would expidite my paperwork but that he would also push back all late fees and bad credit scores. Needless to say on Dec. 19th I called back to learn that my modificatoin was denied and that I was now six months behind. I am very upset that this has happened and had they reacted in a timely mannor I could have come up with two month payments, I is almost impossible to come up with six months. And now they are looking at what I owe and having a hard time fitting me into a program. I need some help and I need it as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your consideration.

This company is not willing to work with you on any circumstance, not even if your trying to make partial payments or if just pay what you can. They are lookin out for there better interest. Every representive has a different line to tell you, never satisfied with anything that they tell me.

They do not want to deal with anything in written form, but would rather only communicate via phone/fax. With this method we have no trail to verify what we have done and what we have communicated. Also, they lied about contacting us by phone.

Only option for us was to pay back our late payments on top of our current payments which resulted in a 3,800 payment per month. Hard to do when you have other payments due and child care due and your take home pay is $6,000 per month. Doesn't leave much left to actually live on to pay for food and gas and medicine!

Fed disinformation regarding the definition of a short sale. Refused to inform me of my hardship options unless I promised to make a payment. Try to force me into repayment plans they know I can't afford. Different people tell me different things on different days - I have no idea what to believe so avoid talking to them as much as possible. Took money out of my checking account, that I didn't have, without my permission. Twice. They put the funds back but did not reimburse the overdraft fees. No accountability. No ability to speak face to face.

We were given instructions to pay on a certain date after a workout. The representative changed the date verbally with me, and we were penalized. I spoke to several supervisors and they said no one could help us, even though the representative admitted he made a "terrible mistake".

Although we are not yet in a crisis, we know that something needs to be done or we will fall in to a crisis. When I called Countrywide to see if we could work something out, the person grew angry/impatient and said that the only thing they do is refinance or nothing and then hung up on me. Apparently all they care about is the fee they will receive with a refinance. Refinancing is not appropriate in all situations. They could care less about coming up with plans to help people to avoid default. It is bad for business and now i can see why Countrywide is in a such a crisis themselves.

I have tried my best to work with them but all they say is that they cannot make any lower offer at this time until you are caught up and stay current. How can a person state current if their financial situation has change. Countrywide are very unprofessional and they do not have any customer service. I believe they are in the business of taking people homes from them. Everyone I know that has a loan with says this about them. They also says "they make you feel inferior to them".

My loan was sold to them within a few months by my other company. The local office can't make decisions, even though they are friendly enough. They just seem to "be there" to take payments for overnight. Sometimes their hours are irregular so we miss the overnight, making people late. I tried to work things out with the retention team when we first were one month behind and the main office said too bad. I wanted to either refinance or have a deferral to the end of the loan and was refused. It seems they don't want the business, just the houses to sit and rot away.

The regularly foul-up escrow payments and escrow "adjustment" for the following year. One year the tax payment was $40 too low. Once the insurance payment was sent in on the same check as another property, but they only included the policy number for the other property; Gee no wonder the insurance company said they hadn't received the payment for my property. Good thing: easy to change automatic PayPlan date online each month; I have mine set up for monthly on the 25th, but if I need to wait until the next paycheck, it is easy to "hold" the auto payment and schedule a manual payment.

When we origionally applied for our current mortgage we were told our payment would be about $600-$700 less per month than we ended up with. We were in a bad situation and the paperwork had to be signed very quickly to get the house. Countrywide new we didn't have time to go to another lender and they screwed us. At the time we could afford the payments, but now my wife has taken a large paycut and we can't possibly keep us with the payments. I really like living here I just cant see how we can go on living like we are where every penny we make goes to the house payment.

for the most part they are just doing their job; however, with the way the market is i would think they would want to do whatever they could to help people keep their homes but i have heard so many horror stories about countrywide and now that they want $3600.00 in addition to my mortgage is rediculous. if i had that kind of money i wouldnt be in this mess. they said there was nothing they could do and that i should just sell my house!!! such a final answer!!! the sad part about is the woman is spoke to lost her home to countrywide and she works there.

Countrywide representatives have been very helpful, but failed to renegotiate my loan to lower my payments which leaves me in the same situation that caused me to become delinquent on my mortgage in the first place.

We have been trying to work with them, but each time we call, we get different answers. And we call several times a day. It seems as though the communication isn't there between the associates themselves and no one knows what's going on. It is very frusterating. We were told to hold onto the payments until some papers got here, but our home went into foreclosure. It has been suspended while they review the Loan Modification, but even that information changes daily, sometimes hourly.

representitives are customer reps who are not trained, give inconsistent information and are not able to answer specific questions. They assure me they will "follow up" and "email supervisors and negotioators" but no follow occurs and when I call back I have to tell my story over and over and get condescending attitudes, and not one representative supports what the previous representative said to me. Notes dont' match my notes and and there is absolutely no follow up or consistency in what I've been told. I've been told this process could take 3 -5 days, 30 days, 2-3 months. Just sit tight and someone will contact you. I've been told to pay my mortage, to not pay my mortage, that paying my mortgage could have an adverse decision as to the status of my loan modification. I've been told my documents weren't received 3 different times. I've been told I should have received documents. I wasn't notified that my loan was declined. I was told AFTER it had been declined that it was STILL being reviewed and waiting for assignment. I didn't realize my loan was declined until 2 months after the fact, AFTER i called to hear status and get some direction. I am extremely disapointed with my mortgate company

In the beginning I thought I had a great mortgage company, but I recently found out that countrywide's billon dollar owner took advantage of many unsuspecting first time buyers who were not really educated with mortgage loans: such as the famos sub-prime loans that's causing many to loose their homes. We should have been offered free consultation to understand the loan before we signed the legal documents with a clear understanding of what we were getting, and the right to decline a bad loan offer.

I have tried to work things out with this company on and off for months. One month I am told I am eligible for work out program, told not to make any payments, not even a parital one and then the next month I am told that I don't qualify. I have been told not to make a payment, then a few days later, get calls demanding payments. I have made partial payments which were not credited to my account immediately. I have never been able to talk to the same person twice to get an understanding of what is going on and how to get help. I have been called names by some of their employees. In addition, after returning several of their calls, which were coming in daily, an employee accused me of harrassing them - I tried to explain that I was returning their calls and she called me liar and said that no one from Country Wide had called me in weeks. I promptly provided her with a few dates, times and phone numbers - all Countrywides - that were on my caller id. She never apologized and continued to be rude. Once in a while I will get someone who truly tries to help and is very professional, but it rarely happens. I have called in, asked to speak to a certain department, been put on hold for a long time, and had my calls out sourced to India.

Since April 5, Countrywide was attempting to refinance for us to save money. Because of their incompetence, it took until July 7 to get a decision and many bills to fall behind. At the time, we were not behind, but could see that we needed to budget ourselves. We knew better than to contact them to do this, but we had no other choice. We tried VA, and the loan was denied. We were told over and over, and then again on Thursday, July 3, that the loan was being finalized and should close by the 4th. Today, we were told that because Bank of America took over, the loan was denied. Now I will lose my house and automobile if I don't get help. We have nowhere to go. I can't come up with all the money they want from us at one time. I have so many other bills, which is why I asked to refinance. This is from another email, but rather than retyping it all, I think it will explain what we've been through. We sent everything we were asked to send, and more than twice we sent the same information because it had been "misplaced.". We've been patient, and we've been told several times that if we send this "last piece of information..." the loan should close. Now let me tell you what's going to be what breaks me into a completely hostile attitude: We made the arrangements for our car lease to be paid off, which we could not really afford to do because now it involves someone else's credit... we were told that that should get us closed because it was eliminating a debt in my name.. We asked several many times, if we do this, will this loan close, and we were told, "That should be all it takes." Then, we went ahead and paid more on my truck, paid the other bills that needed to be paid on a monthly basis that would also be included in the refi. Now the balances have changed. Which is ok... they are being paid though, but at the amount we have to pay at this present time, no... we cannot afford to continue to do so. Next, we sent check stubs and checking account information 4 different times. Another issue... we were asked to see if we could get Bank of America to send a letter showing how or why my mom was able to get the money she received from her credit card to help us pay up our car lease. Why? I don't know. It's her money, we sent them a bank statement, and they still want to know HOW she got her money? Now, we've gotten payoffs from Ford and told them several many times that Countrywide was working on closing and paying off the truck, to which there has been no resolution. I am going to have to call Ford AGAIN, tell them the same old story I've told them over and over for 2 months now, pay another payment, and hope I have enough money for the next month's bill while I still wait on the underwriter. Ford has been so good to work with us. (update- Ford did work with us and deferred 2 months payments when we made 1 full one to bring us current in our credit report on July 14.) The underwriter wanted us to change things that are almost unchangeable so that the credit report would look better. I can't believe the underwriter would think that he/she could manipulate the credit reporting system. The credit report is not going to change until we take the car back in May of 2011 or give them $10,000 at that time, whichever we decide to do. The statement we sent should have been sufficient enough for any person with half a brain to look at it, see a $0 balance, and go with that. Now we're facing foreclosure with nowhere to go. AVOID COUNTRYWIDE and BANK OF AMERICA!!

Countrywide sent us in circles for months. As we were trying to get help, their solution was to increase our payments to almost double. Every time we called we were transferred all over until finally the call was disconnected. The associates we spoke with could never help us and were very quick to transfer the call to another department. I wish we could start all over with a completely different company. We didn't get our initial mortgage from Countrywide...they purchased our loan from another lender, we didn't have a choice in the matter. Horrible company, they shouldn't be allowed to offer customer service to people until they learn what customer service is.

I told them that I was barely hanging on and that I was worried that I would not have the money to pay them soon and they just did not care. No wonder their stock is tanking, this is a poorly run business with a terrible track record for customer service. This is what happens when a company gets too big, nobody cares. I am sure that they are completely apathetic to this entire situation at this point and realize that they gave out too many bad loans and convinced people like con men that they could afford a home that they clearly could not. Way to go Countrywide, you suck!

I talked to one gentleman and he did a workout an it was approved but was denied the next day by another office before they even received it.How is that possible.I could just chew nails and spit rust,I'm trying to hold back profanities.Not enough room to say all the bad things about this company

All the office don't communicate with one another. and how can someone deny a package when they haven't received it yet.And when their one office approved it.I hear that Countrywide is on hard times and is being bought out by Bank of America

I AGREE WITH EVERYONE ELSE WHO HAS POSTED A COMMENT ON HERE. I HAVE EXPERENCED ALL OF THE SAME SITUATIONS. I HAVE TRIED SEVERA TIMES TO CONTACT COUNTRYWIDE AND WORKOUT THE SITUATION BUT I CAN NEVER GET A STRAIGHT ANSWER AND ALWAYS GET A RUN AROUND AND CONFLICTIN STORIES EVERY TIME I TALK WITH THEM. I AM FACING FOECLOSURE AND I HOPE AND PRAY I CAN FIND A WAY TO KEEP MY HOME WITH HELP FROM AFS.

WHEN I CALLED THEM ABOUT NEEDING HELP WITH MY PAYMENTS THEY TOLD ME THAT I DIDN'T QULAFIY BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY INCOME ENTERING INTO THE HOUSEHOLD.

Countrywide does very little to truly help anyone but themselves. I guess that is called big business or maintaining profit at any cost

Tried to work out a forbearance, but they were unhelpful. I'm getting divorced and am desperate to be out of the house that I'm >$30,000 in the red on in terms of equity (and working two jobs just to try to make ends meet in the interim). I want to be rid of the 2nd job (or keep it for a little while and make enough money to have a bit of a cash saved) and am looking for a deed-in-lieu at this point. Hopefully AFS can help.

Almost imposable to get a answer and when they promise something they do not follow through with it.




by William Peraza From Orlando, FL on June 12, 2008
I have spoken with them ask if they can do a foreberance or roll the amount the we owe on the back of the loan and they will not work with us.

Countrywide told me for three months that my loan was approved and they needed additional paperwork from me to refinance my home and after three months they said the loan was not approve which left me behind in my mortgage, I tried the loan repayment plan and it didn't work for me




by SANDRA HAMILTON From Florissant, MO on June 12, 2008
When I tried to do a work out, instead of putting what I owed at the end of my mortgage they divided it and added it to my monthly payments for 12months. Which made it harder for me to pay the mortage.

I talked to countrywide before with a small problem and they would not work with us . while I was off work I ask them if we could defer a payment or two and they told me no.

Countrywide has more over priced properties than all the lenders and they honor the fair market they are the worst to work with in the business. They don't assist their families in need

I was initially given a forebearance...Once it was up, I got absolutely no help from the person that was assigned as my workout negotiator when I attempted to have my loan modified...As a matter of fact I never even spoke to him eventhough I left several messages with Countrywide which is how I ended up filing for Chap-7
