Goodwill phone call to GMAC Mortgage today.... And the result....

It worked!!!  First I had the representative locate my account, and had her verify the late payment from Feb 2010...  Then I told her a fictional story of plight that would make Ray Bradbury proud.  She told me to hold on for a minute, and then she came back saying that it had been ammended and that I would receive a letter in the mail confirming this.  Thanks Collete!  I'm not sure how many points I will recover from this one act, but since I'm looking to qualify for a new home loan, and refinance my existing home, this is huge.  It's the only late mortgage payment in over 5 years.  So anybody considering doing a goodwill letter, I would ABSOLUTELY recommend a goodwill phone call first...  Or two...  Or three...

GW efforts do work but you see nothing ethically wrong with lying? Would you recommend to your children that they lie to get something?

 

I'm just curious.
