With the Right to Rescission, you can back out of your loan within a period of 3 days. Moreover, you won't lose your money if you had canceled your loan within this time period. In my opinion, you should speak to an attorney and take his help in this regard.

hold off on the lawyer - you'll pay for that. contact your lender once again and point out the law. the law requires that the lender refund any monies that you've spent, and they can't collect from you any other fees, either.

you have command in this transaction - use it.

john, this poster wrote the same complaint elsewhere (i knew i'd seen it before), and it turns out the circumstances are not what we thought to be the case. there was no closing. the application fee here is non-refundable and that's the element that's at issue. of course, as i noted in my response on the other post, if an appraisal fee was included in the upfront money and the service wasn't performed, then the lender needs to kick that money back to its applicant.

sometimes it takes us a while to dig, but once done, it's profitable to do so.

oh yeah (i can't quit!)...

for those who don't know this yet...please don't post the same question more than once. it confuses those of us who try to assist with answers to queries, it confuses those who are looking for information to help them in their own situations, and it confuses everyone sooner or later. it's a whole mess, in general.

thanks, in advance.
