I was told about entering their Hardship Program and to call 1-866-6001 or 866-713-4784. I was told to go online to their website, and complete and submit the Homeowners Assistance tab. I did as I was told. 7/27/09 I was mailed and received a confirmation letter that someone would review my documents and call me. 7/31/09 I received a call from John (ID#JC12980, from Ft. Mill, South Carolina code: HAT). He said they have received everything and I was approved. I qualified for a 3.63% Interest rate for 5 years, then up 1% each following year for 5 years). My payments could be $1477.58, and the first one would be due before Sept. 30th. He also instructed me to NOT make payments online, but to Call 1-800-283-7918, and make the payments over the phone, so they get logged in as Additional Funds Received instead of as a payment. I would be receiving a packet in the mail with all the required paperwork for me to approve and sign. 8/20. I have not received the paperwork. I received an E-mail from Citibank (RE: Confidential Message for Michael Mandy #8174) informing me that I was delinquent with my payment. I replied, stating the details of my conversation with John on 7/31, and my payment of $1477.58 was to be paid prior to Sept. 30th. 8/25/09 spoke on the phone to CitiMortgage. I was told not to worry - everything was OK and the paperwork should arrive within 2 weeks. 9/4/09 I called CitiMortgage at 1-800-283-7918 made a payment of $ 1,477.50 well before the due date of 9/30 9/16/09 - Packet of Paperwork arrived. Completed and mailed the next day. 9/30/09 I called CitiMortgage spoke to Rosemary to confirm recipt of everything. She stated they were missing 2008 W-2 forms.

The first payment would be due before 12/30/09, and new paperwork would be arriving in the mail.

I called 1-800-723-7906 spoke to Michael (#1502). He said that the Additional Funds Received department does not forward payment information to the Payments department. So the Payments department does not know that I have been making payments since September. He said that their system has not been updated to do this. But not to worry everything is okay. 1/8/10 I called CitiMortgage at 1-800-283-7918 made a 2nd payment of $ 1,267.59 well before the due date of 1/30.1/13/10 I received a 2nd Delinquent Notice.
