Allie36,
Please help. You are the only Wilshire employee that seems to be in contact with the outside world. We possibly have a happy ending working here if we can just get in touch with a representative.

I am going to detail what has happened because Wilshire's customer service is completely overwhelmed and this causes an unfair burden on consumers trying to do something about their situations.

I am an assistant to a real estate agent who has listed a property for sale. The lender is Wilshire and the property will be a short sale. We have an offer and have sent it in. We have actually received a counter and will likely be able to make this happen but I have a couple of questions I need answers to and I CAN NOT GET THROUGH!
Just getting to this point has been extremely difficult. To negotiate for this client the agent had to send in authorization. It was sent in and initial discussions were conducted and then on about the third discussion the authorization was no longer in the system and we had to resend it. This involved a huge amount of time on hold waiting for agents and supervisors to locate the missing authorization. It was documented in the notes that it had been received but it was never found and had to be resent.

The greatest frustration is to call, wait on hold for five long minutes, (it wasn't long the first time, just the 20th-87th times trying to call in) and the trick is when the man says leave a message and someone will return your call (I'm still waiting for THAT call) press 0 and you get a pleasant sounding lady, the same one almost everytime, who "is not an agent and does not have access to any records"( she will tell you that at the drop of a hat and repeat it like a litany) and she refuses to tell me her name, she only goes by "Operator, and her mission is to put me back into the queue to spend another five minutes on hold to get the message to leave a message to press 0 to speak to the Operator with no name.

I know that Wilshire and every other lender is experiencing never before seen default rates and it is hard to keep up but this is ridiculous.

And Allie36, I respect the fact that you are defending your company's position and you are in the right on probably the majority of the posts I have read here contractually speaking. I would suggest your tone is a little harsh if your intent is to answer these accusations in a manner that highlights Wilshire's position and somewhat diffuses the complaint.

I could relate the full extent of my experience and this post would be three times longer but I prefer to put that time and energy into working towards a resolution.
I just need to be able to speak to an agent.

Hi Mike!
Thank you for asking for my help. It makes me feel like what I do on this website is appreciated at least by some. The only advice I can give is to call the loan workout department at 888 917-1050 Representatives are available 7am to 4pm pacific time.
If you call earlier in the day the hold time is not near as bad.
When you get a representative tell them what you are needing and they can assist you. If the file is already assigned to a representative ask for extension 3106.

The way we have been doing things is different now. We are truly trying to streamline the process so things are done more efficiently. First, the customer sends in their loan workout papers which is generally a financial statement, pay stubs, bank statements, and tax returns. It generally takes 2 weeks for faxes to be logged into imaging. The reason for this is we on average have 900 faxes in our inbox to forward to imaging at one time. It is crazy busy!! Once we have the documents imaged, they are then sent to a loan workout officer and then the officer reviews it. That, unfortunately is the longest process. On average the officer has at least 200 packets being worked at one time. That is why we have the extension 3106, That group is made up of all the loan workout officers and once the account is transferred to that group anyone can assist you. The trick with getting someone earlier in the day is to call as soon as they open. Their hours are 8am to 4pm pacific time. If you call later in the day your hold time can be very long.

We really are trying to help people. We are simply overwhelmed with requests for modifications, short sales, short refi's etc. The truth is it can take 3 months to complete a modification. It is not as bad with a short sale. Since Wilshire is a servicer and not lender, or originator we don't have the ability to refinance people's loan, we can modify their loan so they can afford their home until they are either able to refinance. Since we are such a large servicer that makes it even longer to get things done. If you have a couple questions I may be able to answer them. Let me know and if I can answer the question I sure will.
Take Care and thanks again.
