Saxon Mortgage parent company Morgan Stanley agreed to pay millions of dollars to the state of Massachusetts to end an investigation into its role in loaning billions to a company that gave mortgages to unqualified borrowers.

The financial services firm, which funded subprime loans throughout the country, agreed to give Massachusetts a settlement of $102 million rather than let an investigation into billions of dollars worth of loans to a lender called New Century, according to the state attorney general’s office. New Century used the Morgan Stanley money to fund subprime loans in the state. Morgan Stanley then packaged those loans and sold them to big investors like pension funds.

As part of the settlement, Morgan Stanley will pay $58 million to the borrowers affected by these risky loans, and another $23 million will go to a fund to cover the losses suffered by two Massachusetts reserve funds.

She did not disclose her location but this is what someone named Eve had to say: “I hate Saxon Mortgage.. my payment is due by the 1st with a grace period of 15 days.. I alway pay my mortgage by the 15 day grace period… Saxon starts calling me on the second and then every other day unil I make my payment, every time I explain that I just spoke with someone and although my house payment may be considered late I am still within the grace period. Its annoying!

How can I get Saxon Mortgage to stop?

Also there a ton of misc fees and charges no one can explain to me on my account balance… I hate them! I have to write a letter to get an explanation about what I am paying.”

Rl in Minnesota said: “My husband (Rick) and I have had the same problem as all of the others. Did not receive the information, paperwork is coming so on and so forth. In March we received a foreclosure notice.

I had a HRA Homeownership Specialist assisting in this matter and she could not believe how I or she was treated. I was hoping someone was doing a class action law suite. Saxon Mortgage needs one badly. Well the short of the matter is they forelosed on our house on May 6, 2010.

At first I told them that I could not come with the $3600 before they would even look at my file to try to modify the loan. But i did borrow the money from my mother, we called everyday stating the I had the money but would not send it until they stated what the terms were.

Why commit to something and be in the same boat?

We called and e-mailed at least twice a day and they did not even return to the call to say yes they would postpone the sale or to tell me they were not going to work with me. We even call the man’s supervisor and he did not return the call either.

I had to go out of town for about 10 days and happend to have left the same day of the sale. I did not know what they had done until I returned to work and found the e-mail from the HRA specialist that they did do a sheriffs sale it was sold for $109,200.

She said she was sorry and has never incountered such poor custormer service in all of the time she has helped other. So now we have 6 months to find something to live in. We have been in our home for 26 1/2 years.

A couple of weeks ago someone taped a flyer to our door which stated they were hired from Saxon to see if we wanted to move out early they would give us moving money, I asked how it was they said it was $1,000, I was so mad and told them to tell Saxon NO, we were not moving. How do you run a business like this hurting people and lack of communication, how do they sleep a night or look at themselves in the mirror.”

CR in Georgia said: “I have been working with my lender for well over a year trying to get my mortgage modified. Due to a serious illness, I have been unable to pay my mortgage. I sent in all required and asked for information in hopes of getting my loan modified. I kept getting turned down. This year I went to a NACA sponsored event in California and met with my lender. They informed me that the investor (Morgan Stanley) had me in a type of mortgage that allows no changes (modifications) to my loan.

That means no interest rate reduction, nothing. There is nothing that I can do. If I don’t bring my loan current soon I will be foreclosed on. Has anyone heard of this, and is there anything I can do?”

JG in Florida asks “Is there anything that can be done about Saxon Mortgage, who is taking everbody property unlawful with out consideration. I too is in the same grip of lies. So there should be help somewhere, the modification plan is beginng is becoming a bad joke on society because of mishandling an misleading of this company.”

Indeed many mortgages are placing homeowners in jeopardy. After watching a special on CNBC about this crisis it is hard to tell what investors are thinking. Foreclosures have leveled off in June but only because banks are already holding inventory from the market.

BG in Florida said: “I was given a forbearance plan by my bank. the bank (amtrust) was closed down. my mortgage was transferred to Saxon Mortgage and they disallowed the plan. Calling me in the middle of the night claiming I was not paying my mortgage.

After a few weeks of calling them I spoke with someone who looked up my information and said I was right. she took additional financial info on the phone and then sent me a packet to fill out.

I called several weeks later and was told to bring my mortgage up to date. In other words I should pay up the difference that I owed.

I did as they said, hoping that my modification would now be processed.

I called up again and was told my modification was denied because my mortgage was now current. I tried to get a new mortgage but my credit has been loused up. I would Saxon Mortgage if I could.”

Saxon Mortgage parent Morgan Stanley has seen fit to give the company chairman a 150 percent pay raise. Meanwhile Saxon Mortgage can’t even endorse and return my insurance check in a timely manner. Here is why they think Mack is worth the money:

NEW YORK, May 28 (Reuters) – Morgan Stanley (MS.N) Chairman John Mack, who has said Wall Street’s high pay packages show that the industry is out of touch with mainstream America, is receiving a 150 percent base salary increase to $2 million.

Mack, who declined to accept a bonus the past three years, received a base salary of $800,000 in 2009. In 2006, the last year he received a bonus, he was awarded restricted shares that were worth $36.2 million at the time.

The salary increase, which was revealed in a regulatory filing, was meant to pay him “in line with his new role” as chairman, Morgan Stanley said.

In June of 09, I qualified for Saxon’s HAMP program. My monthly payment before this was $1400. My payment after qualifying was $941. I paid every payment on time during their trial period which lasted 11 months! How is that right? I had people showing up at my house every 2 months claiming they were sent by Saxon. They took pictures of my house. I came home from work one day to find one taking pictures through my Patio door into my house.

Every time I called Saxon on this I was told “they are not with our Company”. Finally I had had enough and cornered one of them and asked what they hell they were doing. I was told that his Company had been hired by Saxon to check on the condition of the property and make sure it was inhabited then he asked me “Can I come in and take some pictures?” Of course I told him right where to go and called the police.

The police showed up and sure enough he produced documentation from Saxon stating he was to get pictures of the property. The police asked if I wanted the man on my property and I told him no, he took pictures from the street when we were home and my neighbors reported that the same guy showed up when we were at work and took pictures through our windows! Our blinds were shut for months!

Every month I paid my trail payment of $941 I asked Saxon when my paperwork would be sent and what would my monthly payment be? They would tell me some lie about it was in processing, or I was missing paperwork. I had faxed, re faxed, sent overnight, and UPS my paperwork an ungodly amount of times. They didn’t finally admit to having my paperwork until I faxed ALL of the confirmations to them. They were holding off until after February when new laws went into affect.

For every loan Saxon Mortgage modifiesy under the HAMP program Saxon receives $1000 from the GOVERNMENT, and if you make you modified payments on time for a year they receive another $1000 from guess who – the GOVERNMENT.

I finally received my paperwork for my HAMP mod om 5/14/10 and do you know how much Saxon helped me? They saved me $50.

My payment was reduced by $50. The rate is 7.99 percent. After almost a year of torture, placing calls every week, promises that my monthly payment would be that much more from my trial payment. I have a $1350 monthly payment on a house I can’t even sell and it’s not even worth $90,000!

When I called them, you know the first thing the Saxon person said to me, “I’m sorry ma’am I know that this payment isn’t going to be affordable to you but I suggest you sign the paperwork anyway and try to pay it” when I asked him how was I going to pay it he asked if I had anything valuable that I could sell, cars, jewelery.

I am supposed to sell everything I own, not eat, and not pay any of my other bills to afford this payment. I told him I can’t, I won’t. I also asked if there was any other programs, an in-house modification that I could do. “No ma’am I’m sorry, your income is too low”

They know that people can not make these payments. Yet they still get paid to do the HAMP mods. It is horrible what they are putting people through. They shouldn’t be allowed to do this.

Millions of people applied and qualified for this HAMP program with Saxon. They get a $1000 for each one! Do the math, they don’t care if the houses foreclose. They just don’t care. I love my home, it was suppose to be where I would raise my family and grow old, MY American Dream, now it’s my nightmare.

I will more than likely lose my home but I am determined not to lose it to Saxon, I would rather have the town foreclose on it for a $64 sewer bill then see it go to those crooks at Saxon Mortgage and Morgan Stanley.

Lou, no location given, said “Saxon Mortgage does exactly the same thing to everyone. Saxon Mortgage denies receiving your documents then forecloses.

I tried to short sale my house, a realtor has a buyer that qualifies, sent all the documents repeatedly via fax via certified mail, and AGAIN and AGAIN, THEY SAID THE SAME thing.

THEY DID NOT RECEIVE IT, FAX OR MAIL IT AGAIN. This situation prolonged to months and over a year, so i decided to file for Chapter 13 to save the house myself. I made payments as ordered by the bankruptcy court while waiting for resolution of my case, SAXON DENIES RECEIPT OF THESE PAYMENTS (I kept copies of my payment),

Saxon Mortgage then asked the court permission to sell my house (they lost because all the documents they submitted to support their motion to sell my house are all false!)

I fought hard because i went to law library and put my heart and soul in trying to fix this problem. I also have time because I am not working anymore…WHAT ABOUT THOSE PEOPLE WHO BECOME VICTIM OF SAXON?

Saxon Mortgage is only a servicing agent.

The more they hang on the loan and/or sell the house the more money they take in. They are heartless and ruthless. My loan is from Deustche Bank (and they hire saxon to service my loan.) Saxon connects with a law firm Pite Duncan LLP who files all this false statements to bankruptcy court after they have promised to work with you.

They make promises and make you wait SO YOU RUN OUT OF TIME TO OPPOSE THEIR MOTION TO FORECLOSE YOUR HOUSE!. EVIL TACTICS.. THE “INVESTOR” as they claimed may not be aware of how
this inhuman tactics saxon is doing to us. WE THE HOMEOWNERS HAVE TO SEND OUR LETTER DIRECTLY TO OUR INVESTOR.

Do not accept whatever Saxon Mortgage says (bunch of lies), demand to find out who is your loan INVESTOR and send your complaint directly. WE HAVE TO LET THE INVESTOR KNOW WHAT SAXON IS DOING TO USE. SAXON HAS VESTED INTERESTS IN PROLONGING THE CASE, SELLING THEIR CASE, NOT TO RESOLVE YOUR CASE BECAUSE THEY CHARGE THE INVESTOR FOR THE TIME THEY SPENT ON YOUR CASE.

WE SHOULD FIND A LAWYER AND FILE A CLASS ACTION SUIT AGAINST SAXON. ITS THE ONLY WAY THEIR ABUSES CAN BE ADDRESSED.”
