I have a VA home loan with BSI Financial. I lost my job at the tail end of the pandemic and had to move from my home. The home was going to go into forclosure and I filed an appeal with the company. The company paused the foreclosure until they came back with a solution that they thought fair. It had me paying all of my escrow items. I still cannot afford that as I am still recovering from unemployment. I have a person who is willing to make payments on the house until such time as it sells or he buys it. I have asked BSI to reset the loan due to this and they have not. BSI continues to ROBO call me just to put me on hold for greater than 5 minutes so I am not able to speak to anyone. I have had no emails from my single point of contact. There has been no direct communication from the person who is supposed to be supporting me and the company ( Single point of contact). I would like the company to actually reach out to me via email and set up a time to contact me.Business response

Hello ***,Re: Escrow ********** I called your office at ************** numerous times beginning in December of 2023, and more recently on 2/19/2024, 2/20/2024, 3/4/2024, 3/11/2024, and 3/20/2024. I was informed in February through a phone call that "once I submit the homeowner's insurance, the *** and the additional mortgage balance will be removed", this didn't happen.In my subsequent calls about the payment due March 1, which should be $*******, I was informed that "it takes time to recalculate my balance by the mortgage department, and that once I pay the $3925.46, the april statement will reflect the correct amount, which is *******. This didn't happen.In more recent calls on 3/11 and 3/20, I was informed it "takes more time for them to recalculate and if I pay the $3925.46 due April 1, then the statement will be recalculated for May 1. In addition, the *** representative confidently claimed that a "new statement has been issued on 3/14/2024", to which I requested a copy sent to my email, I received nothing. Based on all the previous correspondences by phone with ***, I simply do not get a straightforward answer and find it hard to trust their answers by phone.I have the following question and request your prompt response.Escrow (Taxes and/or Insurance): ****** indicated on mortgage statements with statement date 2/15/2024 and 3/11/2024, how is this amount calculated, what is the total amount of this "escrow amount due that includes taxes and/or insurance)? Why hasn't this been removed from the monthly mortgagement statements for 2/15/2024 and 3/11/2024?*****************Business response

We have a mortgage with BSI. We have a significant homeowners insurance claim. Check was made out to us and BSI. We mailed the check to BSI in early December 2023 so they could endorse it and send back to us. BSI had requested an inspection to insure the work we had done was completed. We passed the inspection 100%. BSI continues to hold our funds insisting they need additional information from our insurance carrier in regards to the claim. We have even had two additional inspections also passing 100%. BSI continues to hold our funds for over three months.Customer response

BSI is my mortgage company. On January 1, 2024, BSI increased my escrow payments from $683.81 per month to $1,473.29 per month. My escrow payments cover my taxes and insurance. My insurance cost did not increase, so the entire increase is attributable to property taxes. At the current escrow payment, this would mean I pay roughly $17,679.48 yearly in taxes. The total taxes for my property for 2023 will total $8,534.18.BSI is charging me more than double what my taxes cost. I have reached out to them on 2 separate occasions to resolve this issue, but BSI has ignored my attempts to contact them. On my last attempt to contact them I gave them 10 business days to respond before I filed this complaint with the BBB. To date I have still not received a response from BSI. To resolve this, I want BSI to contact me to explain why there is such a large discrepancy in the charges, change the amount in escrow I am being charged, and reimburse me for the over charges.Business response

On May 5 2023 my mortgage payment cleared from my ***** ********** in the amount of $1432. I recently uncovered that BSI reported my mortgage as 30 days late for the month on May 2023. I have contacted BSI several times and even included proof that the mortgage was paid on time but they have yet to remove the error on my credit. I have asked my issue be escaped but the agent I spoke to today 3-11-24 refused to escalate my concern. All I am waiting is my mortgage payment to reflect as being paid on time and the 30 day late be removedBusiness response

Thank you Better Business Bureau for providing a platform to assist me in resolving my issue.I have exhausted all resources in working with this company. I learned earlier on that my emails never get returned, and thus I have resulted in contacting them by phone only. This way, my calls are recorded, dates, and times of my calls can easily be pulled to confirm my attempts to work with them. I received a letter in November stating my PMI has been removed from my account. BSI ******************** continued to charge my November and December payments. I received reimbursement for the November PMI. However, I have not received anything since. Also, there was a check issued for $169.96 that I have never received. I have contacted them multiple times via phone for this as well.Im requesting an audit of my account to ensure I have received all reimbursements owed to me.With appreciation,***********************Customer response
