I fell on a serious hardship and fell behind on my payment 1 month due to my child's funeral expenses. My car is broken down, AC gone out in the home and other issues. I have no extra funds to get anything fixed. I reached out to this company in Prayer to get some assistance on resolutions that will be for long term fix. I sent in all paperwork, hardship letter everything they asked from me. I explained everything in the paperwork and application I submitted. This company over looked everything I stated in my hardship letter and denied me payment deferments, denied me to lower my interest rate and/or lower my monthly notes. Instead I was told to stop paying all my other bills so I could pay this one and to not have any emergency situations. I have no vehicle to get to work I have to pay someone to bring me back and forth our AC is out in our home and it is 100 + in ***** and miserable for my family to sleep at night. Instead of this company working with me to find a long term solution they offered me to pay 2 x the amount I am paying now which is over $1000 a month. Why would you expect me to pay 2 x what I am paying now when I am in a hardship financial bind. This company does not care about the customer at all. They made it clear to me only thing they are worried about is making sure they get their money. This company makes is very hard to get any type of assistance when you need it and do not care about anything else you have to do. I been in my home for over 19 years and I tried going to another company to get away from this one and I am being told I have no equity in my home which is very fishy and I do not understand why nor the other company do not know what is going on at all either. Every year I am faced with the same situation and instead of this company helping me with a resolution that will be long term they are only wanting to raise my payments and put more financial bind on me every year for their own greed. This company is horrible no hearts no care.Business Response

I purchased my home in **** and MGC Mortgage bought my mortgage from my lender about 5 years later. During the pandemic I was approved for forbearance. When the forbearance ended I resumed paying my monthly mortgage in January 2022. MGC Mortgage accepted payment and then informed me that I had to complete a Loss Mitigation packet. I called MGC Mortgage and explained to them that I have had NO contact with the ex who I had purchased the home with in **** since **** and had no idea where he was. I was told that the modification would be based solely on my income. I completed that packet and returned to MGC. Approve April 2022.. Finally the paperwork arrived asking for me to sign. The paperwork also requested that the other borrower sign also, even though the modification was approved solely on my financial situation. I immediately called MGC Mortgage. I was told to have the co borrower sign a Quit Deed Claim, even though I explained that i had no idea where he was! I hired a lawyer to assist. My lawyer sent in the modification agreement with my signature and a letter explaining the situation and explained that he would be assisting me in trying to locate the co borrower in order to remove his name. No response from MGC. In August MGC accepted first payment over the phone. Received nothing stating modification was not in effect. Then I receive docs from MGC lawyer stating that they were accelerating my loan and would execute foreclosure in Jan 2023. I called and was told it was due to the missing signature. State programs were suggested. I immediately applied for HAF on 9/16. HAF has been trying to onboard MGC mortgage since September. I receive updates from HAF stating that MGC has not onboarded so they cannot process my application. I am incurring late fees and the foreclosure is still on for Jan 2023. I have called numerous times, nobody seems to be able to help. Emails have been sent to escalation department and promised call backs in 24- 48hrs- no response.Business Response

My home was damaged during Hurricane **** MGC Mortgage wants me to endorse my insurance claim check to them and they say they will release it in thirds back to me and only after I pass some made up inspection that they are demanding. My roof needs to be repaired and if I cannot use my insurance proceeds I will never be able to fix my roof because 1/3 of the claim amount will not cover repairs and no contractor is going to do work without payment. MGC Mortgage is a predatory lender and I have had nothing but problems with them from the beginning.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: I sent MGC over $47,000 in checks and although they state that they have sent me a check for $5,000, I have not received anything.Customer Answer
Date: 06/15/2023
The $31,000 check that I sent was incorrect which is why the insurance company put a stop payment on the check. However, the replacement check was sent to MGC and received by them. It was deposited on May 25. For them to act like they dont have it is disingenuous. I cannot complete any repairs on my home because they wont send me my own money. Although they state that they sent me a $5,000 check, this is absolutely false. I do not have any of my insurance funds.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: They do nothing but cause problems. They said they mailed a check on June 8, which can take 15 days to receive. So if on June 15 I still havent received it, that would be fine since it can take up to june 23, which it did. Now they are canceling the check I received and I have to wait again to do any repairs on my house and its been 10 months since the storm. MGC is a joke of a company.Initial Complaint

I asked for a loan modification in 8/2021,it took 10 months for paper work to arrive in 6/2022 when it arrived it had my previous married name, I could not get the papers notarized because that is not my name (I sent my divorce decree to mgc 10/2012)this was verified 11/1/22 by a MGC employee. Resending the papers took another month or two now the problem was the amounts due with paper work was 4xtimes the original amounts. It was not my fault that the name was incorrect! I'm simply asking for the original amount be honored. I continue to call MGC to be put on hold log periods of time, promised call backs that don't happen or threatened that I must sign and pay $10,000 or be denied, I am still receive documents with the wrong name!
I would like for them to refinance, loan mod or whatever it takes so that the original amounts on modification papers is honored.
See the attached pictures of the amount difference, I was told after receiving the second packet to wait for a call back (*******)to resolve the amount difference.Business Response
