Company Official Name: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION

State: TX

Product: Mortgage
Sub-Product: Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)

Issue: Trouble during payment process

Full Complaint:
In XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from USAA on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX of the servicing company XXXX. It shows they found a delinquent tax bill. I immediately responded to show documentation of the deferment account I was approved for by the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and explained I was not delinquent or in default. I called USAA and was on the phone for a considerable amount of time while my situation was being assessed and was told that this notice was sent in error by the service companys tax company and to disregard. XX/XX/XXXX Then I got the notice dated XX/XX/XXXX that USAA paid my tax debt of {000.00} in early XXXX and that it was to be paid back over XXXX year with an increased payment of {00.00} from {0.00}. 5 years of property tax deferral to be paid back in 12 months. Its an impossible situation that could cost me my only asset, my home. That payment is almost the full amount of my XXXX, social security XXXX check.

I called the XXXX XXXX tax office who assured me I had not made an error and confirmed that they were sent the entire deferred amount in XXXX. She apologized that this has happened and said it has occurred with other lenders and the instruction for remedy is for USAA to email them to request the return of that full payment to restore my deferred taxes. This is an entitlement program in the Property Tax Code that I was encouraged to apply for and was reassured multiple times that it was a solution in my case of being permanently XXXX and trying to manage being a single parent taking care of my mother in XXXX.

After calls and emails on XX/XX/XXXX I have yet to have a reply from USAA. I was told my file was escalated to an AVP at XXXX ( not USAA XXXX. But still heard nothing after one week.
