Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
On three different occasions and in written correspondence from Chase I was told I would be sent a copy of the information supplied to the recorders office in Alexandria, VA within 30 to 60 business days of paying off the loan. My loan was satisfied on December 16, 2002. Funny how the numerous customer service reps I had spoken with failed to inform me my request had to be in writing until I received a letter on March 26, 2003, telling me to put my request must be in writing.

I did so on March 31, 2003. It is now almost Mother's Day and I am still waiting for the release I was promised.

I am refinancing my first mortgage just to get away from Chase.

Other problems I have encountered follow:

Conflicting information supplied by customer service personnel. I sent my final payoff to the address quoted to me. The check cleared my bank but was not credited to my loan until I sent a copy of the cancelled check. The loan number was clearly written on the check and in the accompanying letter.

A 20 to 30 minute waiting time to reach a live person on more than four occasions. On one occasion I was on hold for 47 minutes.

Keeping the amount I sent above my payoff with an explanation it went toward the recording fee. According to Chases's customer service representative, had I not sent the additional amount Chase would have covered all of it. No notice had been given referencing a recording fee?

I guess they just don't care as companies continue to sell them their mortgages.

Information on Chase Records Department

#2UPDATE EX-employee responds

Thu, May 03, 2007

I am a former employee of Chase Manhattan Mortgage Corporation in Monroe, LA. I was a Teamleader in the records department there (File Intake II). My job was to supervise the processing of mortgage documents and ensuring that they were placed in the proper file. Chase is notorious for losing documents. There were something like 2 million mortgage files in the location in which I worked (Kansas Lane) at the time. When you said. "On three different occasions and in written correspondence from Chase I was told I would be sent a copy of the information supplied to the recorder's office in Alexandria, VA within 30 to 60 business days of paying off the loan." I thought I would comment. As I recall, Chase is smacked with a hefty fee whenever another mortgage corporation, bank, etc. requests documents that cannot be produced in a timely fashion. But if a customer requests a document that can't be produced? Chase couldn't care less. At the time I worked at Chase, there was a backlog of close to 70,000 documents that had not been placed in mortgage files. I requested that two of my employees (they're called "interfilers") be fired while I was a Teamleader there. They had gotten tired and bored with working, threw their load of documents in the trash can, claimed that they had filed them, and left for the day. Your document is probably sitting on a shelf somewhere, collecting dust. Please accept my sympathies; Chase screwed me over as well. I would never recommend them to anyone, not even my worst enemy.
