We applied to Wells Fargo for a loan modification after my husband lost his job. The modification was declined on the basis of failed NPV. However we have appealed and they are considering our appeal. We are now 4 months late on payments. We called to make a payment today and were told that they would only accept a payment for all 4 payments ( XXXX ). They would no longer accept individual payments. To me this seems as though they are forcing us further into default rather than trying to assist us. I believe that this is a breach of the intent of the new Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Regulation Z rules under 226.36 ( c ) for mortgage loan servicers : " Servicing practices. 

( 1 ) In connection with a consumer credit transaction secured by a consumer 's principal dwelling, no servicer shall -- ( i ) Fail to credit a payment to the consumer 's loan account as of the date of receipt, except when a delay in crediting does not result in any charge to the consumer or in the reporting of negative information to a consumer reporting agency, or except as provided in paragraph ( c ) ( 2 ) of this section ; By refusing to accept a payment online they seem to be deliberately circumventing this rule in order to force us into foreclosure. 

We fully expect my husband to be reemployed next year. At that time, hopefully with a modified loan, we hope to work out a payment plan. At this time we are simply asking the bank to accept a payment. 

Anything you can do to assist us would be greatly appreciated, Sincerely
