ACORN Protestors Picket Mortgage Company On Behalf Of Homeowner Facing Foreclosure; Claims Lender Screwed Up In Accounting For Loan Payments

In Fort Worth, Texas, the Fort Worth Star Telegram reports:
  • Eight people chanted, sang protest songs and marched with placards Wednesday outside the Fort Worth office of Saxon Home Mortgage in support of a man facing foreclosure despite his assertions that he was not in arrears and that Saxon had mislaid his property-tax payments.

  • The 36-year-old homeowner said he had gotten no clear answers from Saxon’s customer service until he asked ACORN to intervene. "Without them, I know I wouldn’t have gotten anywhere," he told the Star-Telegram. "I’d still be getting the runaround."
