Collectors may not use false or misleading statements or call you at work if they know or have reason to know that you may not receive personal calls at work. For the most part, collectors may not tell another person, other than your attorney or spouse, about your debt. Collectors may contact another person to confirm your location or enforce a judgment.

  • PURSUANT TO RESPA, A NOTICE OF ERROR OR REQUEST FOR INFORMATION REGARDING THE SERVICING OF THE MORTGAGE ACCOUNT (INCLUDING A QUALIFIED WRITTEN REQUEST) MUST BE SENT TO THIS ADDRESS:

     

    Specialized Loan Servicing LLC

    P.O. Box 630147

    Littleton, CO 80163-0147

     

    Please note, RESPA (12 U.S.C. Section 2605) provides you certain consumer rights. If you send a notice of error or request for information (including a qualified written request) to your loan servicer regarding the servicing of your loan, your servicer must provide you with a written acknowledgment within 5 days (excluding legal public holidays, Saturdays, and Sundays) of receipt of your request. 

    Response Time Frame for Notice of Error:

    Your loan servicer must make any appropriate corrections to your account, and must provide you with a written clarification regarding any dispute within the following time limits:

    • Not later than seven days (excluding legal public holidays, Saturdays, and Sundays) after the servicer receives the notice of error for errors related to the failure to provide an accurate payoff balance.

       
    • Prior to the date of a foreclosure sale or within 30 days (excluding legal public holidays, Saturdays, and Sundays) after the servicer receives the notice of error, whichever is earlier, for errors asserted related to dual tracking.

     

    • For all other asserted errors, not later than 30 days (excluding legal public holiday, Saturdays, and Sundays) after the servicer receives the applicable notice of error.

    After receipt of a notice of error, your servicer may not, for 60 days, furnish adverse information to any consumer reporting agency regarding any payment that is the subject of the notice of error. However, this does not prevent the servicer from initiating foreclosure if proper grounds exist under the mortgage documents, except with regard to notices from you related to initial foreclosure filings or motions for foreclosure judgments or sales.

    Response Time Frame for Request for Information:

    Your loan servicer must respond to your request for information within the following time limits:

    • Not later than 10 days (excluding legal public holidays, Saturdays, and Sundays) after the servicer receives an information request for the identity of, and address or other relevant contact information for, the owner or assignee of a mortgage loan; and
    • For all other requests for information, not later than 30 days (excluding legal public holidays, Saturdays, and Sundays) after the servicer receives the information request.

      The notice of error or request for information must be written correspondence (other than notice on a payment coupon or other medium supplied by the servicer) that includes, or otherwise enables the servicer to identify, the name and account of the borrower, and includes a statement of the reasons the borrower believes the account is in error, if applicable, or that provides sufficient detail to the servicer regarding the information being sought by the borrower. Please note, a notice of error or request for information is not considered timely if the written correspondence is delivered to Specialized Loan Servicing LLC or the prior servicer who receives the request for information or notice of error more than 1 year after either the date of transfer of servicing or the date the mortgage servicing account was discharged (either paid in full, or discharged through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure or short sale without full satisfaction of the underlying contractual obligation.) ​
