Complaint Resolution Index (CRI)

Complaint Resolution Index (CRI) Explained The Complaint Resolution Index (CRI) is an indicator on how responsive a company is in addressing and resolving customer complaints brought to their attention by BCA. If they are considering doing business with the company, consumers can use this indicator to forecast the likelihood of having their issues addressed if a problem arises. CRI measures the company's customer satisfaction abilities through BCA’s complaint mediation process.

A variety of factors are considered when calculating CRI. This includes how quickly a company responds to complaints, the number of complaints against a company, whether the company addressed complaint allegations, and the outcome of the complaints. CRI is just a subset of the overall rating for the company. Consumers are encouraged to take into consideration the company's CRI, their overall BCA letter rating and other relevant information about the company so they can make a well-informed purchasing decision.

Loan modification scam

I wish I had done a little more investigation prior to engaging this business. If I had, I would have discovered the multitude of folks who have, for lack of a more accurate word, been SCAMMED. I have viewed numerous negative reviews and multiple complaints, but after having spoken with the State Bar of California, they say there have been no formal complaints lodged against State Trust Legal nor Lee Alan Gross the attorney/owner of record. I too was scammed out of several thousand dollars by this greedy, unethical, unprofessional, lying, cheating bunch. Based on the initial offering I received in the mail to consolidate my 1st and 2nd mortgages at an extremely low interest rate, I prepaid almost $7,500 for services that were either not rendered at all or only lightly addressed. I am not going away with my tail tucked between my legs. As evidenced by this review I am initiating my campaign to recover at least a portion of my expenditures. I have already begun the process of filing a complaint with the State Bar of California and I have an appointment with an attorney to discuss what avenues I have available.

Comments and Analysis

Effective October, 2009 in California, it is illegal to collect any fees, regardless of the form, for negotiating or attempting to negotiate a loan modification for a residential mortgage. All modification services must be fully completed before any money can be collected. It is also illegal to divide fees or services into components for the purpose of avoiding this law.

HUD approved housing counseling agencies are exempt from this law. For businesses outside of California, please check with the agency that regulates this industry.
