Finally got an answer for the reason of no return phone calls or emails, it was due to a family emergency. Ummm where was the Manager? We had our appraisal that came in at $10k less than the one just under 90 days in Aug. We were all set to close on Sept 9th BUT they didn't like the appraisal and had another one ordered and done within a 2 week period and that one came in at $5k less. We were told that most likely they will use the first one but it needs to go back to review. Almost a week passes with no return calls or emails (this is the norm for them). Finally today we get a return call only after leaving a third message to him that stated do I need to get an Attorney? The only way now we can close is to go to a closing with $3k! I couldn't believe what I was hearing! He knew that the closing costs were to be included but because they went with the 2nd appraisal that was all they could do and of course he said that they cut their fees just to get us a loan (1st & 2nd combined)! Marcel told me that he was not a broker but a lender h*o untrue that was as he is a broker!!!! There is not enough space to list all the phone calls and the promises to get right back to us to list them all here! Because of their delays and unprofessional business practices we are out a refinance. Almost 90 days (9/28/08) to get this thing done, we started the process 6/28/08. I personally think that if you are in a high adjustable rate and have bills that you want to include to get back on track, they get off putting the screws to you! I am putting in a formal complaint against this company to prevent this from happening to someone else. 9o days is totally unacceptable!!! They keep you hanging with you are approved just a few more days or it's still in review! Yeah right. These people work out of their homes so where is the management and customer service? I winder what kind of education they have? They certainly don't have any customer service skills! This company is nothing but BS and they haven't heard the last from me. Don't use this company and stay away from Marcel Frombrun! Next time I will use a local lender and will gladly pay a higher rate to refinance than to go through this unprofessional BS again!!!
