  Im on the do not call list, yet I receive 3 to 4 telemarketing call on my cell phone per day with a rep illegally trying to convince me to refinance from ****% to 7.5% with no tangible benefit. I requested to be removed every time and they get rude and obnoxious. Boiler room like sales culture attempting to sell unnecessary refinances.

  This company continues to call my cell phone number. Will not provide a call back number. The phone calls have become harassing and occur multiple times per day for the last several months. The callers are rude. I have asked to be removed from their call list, which I never signed up for, and they still continue to call me.

  A refinance that occurred with an outstanding loan on my original house. This involved a third-party appraiser that they pushed to get done even though they knew that the appraisal would be charged to me separately and the loan may or may not be subordinated to the original home equity line of credit on my home I am out $580. I have left review the owner has not called me back from global equity

  *****,

   

  Your appraisal came in at 362k vs 400k was your original estimate.  This is a standard part of any loan refinance. Additionally, you had an additional undisclosed lien pop up which you did not inform us about.  Unfortunately we cannot help you cover an appraisal cost like this when it was not our fault.  We are very sorry we were not able to complete your loan transaction on your behalf.

  More info

  This transaction was done in November 2022. ***************************** was the loan officer who worked on this transaction. From the beginning of the process, he told me that I was getting a loan for $50,000 with my payments on the loan being principal and interest on a fixed interest rate for 10 years. After I finished signing everything, I found out that everything ****** told me was drastically and entirely different from what I actually received. The actual loan was an interest only loan for 10 years on adjustable interest rate. He never told me that the loans would be for 30 years. I didn't find this out until I called the bank trying to see where I was supposed to make the first payment on the loan. They explained to me that the payment I would be making would be applied to interest and if i wanted to hit principal on the loan that I would need make additional payments. I would have NEVER done this loan if ****** would've told me that I would be paying 10 years in interest only payments. Additionally, I was charged $1500 on my credit card for a "processing fee" to make sure my loan was "pushed to the front" according to him. ****** said there was a large volume of these loans coming through and that if I didn't pay the $1500, that we would have to wait a 2-3 months for underwriting to look at my loan. I've been trying to get in contact with ****** and he has not responded my calls or my messages. I am going to make a complaint with the **** as well about the unethical business practices of ***************************** and this company. The calls were all recorded with the company.

  **************,

   

  Your son was the one who chose the loan for you after consulting with his Executive *************  Your $1,500 fee, which covers appraisal and other costs, will be refunded today.    

  Customer response

  03/17/2023

  My son is not a licensed loan officer. The executive ******, was the one who put me in the loan. As a licensed loan officer it is his job to fully disclose the terms and conditions of the loan. Instead, he had my son who again, is not licensed loan officer try to explain loan terms to me. On top of that he instructed my son on signing documents without my consent and without me even looking at the documents to speed up the process. The companys response was not what I expected. I was taken advantage of and lied to. I put my faith in the company and trusted a licensed professional to fully disclose all information of the loan. Ultimately the loan that I ended up with was not anywhere near the loan that ****** had discussed and explained to me or my son. The resolution that I am looking for from this company is for me to have the original loan that ****** had explained to me I was signing. The executive ****** explained to me that  I would have a 10% fixed interest rate with a payment of $440 monthly for 10 years, and every payment that I would make would go towards the interest and the principle of the loan. Also, ****** told me that  I can pay any additional amount of money that I want towards the principle and that the monthly payment would be reduced depending on how much more money I would pay off of the principle. He never once told me that I would be paying only interest for 10 years. He should have reached out to me directly since I am the client, not my son.

  **************,

   

  All the disclosures go over your loan in detail.  After pulling recorded calls- all the terms of the loan were correctly explained to you as well by your licensed Loan Consultant ******************************  We've done as much as we can to remedy your situation at this time.

  Customer response

  03/27/2023

  I received a call from the executive **** with no solutions to this situation. This situation has not had any type of remedy or attempt to be fixed. As stated previously, all I am looking for is to get the loan terms that I was promised. Since these calls are recorded I am willing to fly into ********** to listen to the call where ****** supposedly explained these loan terms to me. If this were true I wouldve never gone through with the loan.

  They lie, said they were GE, they are not. After they still refuse to a swer a question, !Q1 confirm they offer HELOC 2 a rate They wanted a full packed a d keep harassing me about loan refy. When I have a 2.5 rate....and kept telling me this is what .ost people wa t...but I called about HELOC, AND THEY REFUSED, CLASSIC BAIT SWITCH. NOT TO BE TRUSTED

  

  Business response

  Hi *******,

  Thanks for reaching out- couple points of clarification... appears there has been some miscommunication:

   

  1) We do offer Home Equity Lines- it is one of our specialty products.  However- in order to any sort of loan approval we must run a soft credit check.  (Not at all a full package) After review of your application- your application stopped short of you completing a soft qual credit check. Soft pulls don't impact your credit in any way- however they are required in order to provide any sort of quote.  

  2) We are Global Equity Finance- AKA GE Finance (our website is www.gefinance.com) 

  3) There has never been any desire to bait and switch you- although since our core product is refinance, representatives often refer to both Home Equity Lines and primary loans as refinances.  (Both are financing the property)

   

  Feel free to reach out to me at ************. Thanks- *******

  Customer response

   Thank you for your response.

  
  

  1) we were told this was GE capital, but we were tra served 3 times.

  THIS IS NOT GE CAPITAL.

  2) we wanted information on a Heloc, but they kept saying most people wanted a cash out...

  3) 10 minutes in, they wanted not summary information, they wanted detailed private info.ation...e.g. each individual SSDI, vs sum.ary.  we have $500k in equity, but they wanted more detail for a rate including a soft hit to our credit score.

  4) then when we refused, they sent a BBB link, which we did not need or want...all I wanted was a rate...which requires 100% application.  Not what I requested.  But since they sent the link, I want the complaint to stand.

  
  

  Thx

  The call has been reviewed. We indicated that we are GE Finance (as you can see at our website gefinance.com).  In order for any sort of rate to be quoted- a soft pull has to be done on credit. There is no such thing as rate without soft pull as rates are completely dependent on credit.  Soft pulls cost the Company money to pull on your behalf- we do not bill the client. Furthermore- it does not affect your credit in any way.  We apologize you felt this experience was sub par- we will work on our customer service.

  Update to the companys last response since I cant reply to the last response from my original complaint. I have never applied for a loan or anything else online. I have asked the name of the company and they have told me repeatedly they worked for Global Equity Finance. I have asked repeatedly to be removed from the system as I am not interested in their services. Your company continues to call daily with No respect for the customers wishes. This is harassment. Again. Cant believe this is good business practices. I will and never have done business with a company that keeps calling for business. I will keep posting complaints with any and all agencies if this keeps happening.
