Complaints Help

If you have a complaint about how your servicer is treating you, you can file a complaint with the following:

  • The Consumer Protection Division of the North Carolina Attorney General’s Office: 919-716-6000 or 1-877-5-NO-SCAM. Complaint forms are available at www.ncdoj.gov/complaint.aspx.

Settlement Compensation Help

The Settlement Administrator has made payments to most eligible borrowers.

If you have questions about your eligibility or compensation under the settlement, please call the Settlement Administrator toll-free at 1-866-430-8358.

If you have been scammed by a foreclosure rescue operator or a debt relief organization, contact your state Attorney General’s Office at the above numbers or file a complaint through the Attorney General’s website at www.ncdoj.gov/complaint.aspx.

Tenant Help

If you are a tenant who lives in a residence that is in foreclosure, you can contact legal aid at 1-866-219-5262.
