Here is what I found out about Nationwide - I also believe but am not sure that they were affiliated with First Universal Lending (they may have been selling the First Universal Product for a while) and were just raided by the FTC in November 2009.
Nationwide Financial Solutions
lucy of science hill, KY January 19, 2010
We contacted them about our getting help with our mortgage payments. We paid them a great deal of money. Sent in the paperwork that they needed from us. Was told not to make a payment to our mortgage company untill they made settelments with them. This has been for almost 6 months and have not heard anything from them.
Due to us not making the payments and telling our mortgage company that we were dealing with them we are now getting ready to go to court a there is a great chance that we will lose our house.

I was contacted by a Steve Myers originally in July 09. Since then I have paid them 3,000 and have worked with a least 4 different people. Last week after submitting paperwork on top of paperwork we received Foreclosure Notice and Notice to Sell. Nationwide is clueless. Every week they want new proof of income and I have submitted the same "Hardship Letter" at least 4 times.
They keep telling me that because of one reason or another the modification is being delayed. Well today I finally called the mortgage company directly and they said they have had very little contact with Nationwide. The mortgage company asked for additional information in Dec which I provided to Nationwide but the mortgage company never got. That is why they started foreclosure. The mortgage company told me what information they needed and said I still have time to stop the foreclosure if I get "THEM" the information they need. They can turn it quickly since it's gone to foreclosure. I feel so "SCAMMED".

We sent Nationwide Financial Solutions everything they needed to start the negotiations for a loan modification. The package had to be reviewed for completeness which lasted a month. Then it had to go to budgeting--another month. Then they had to get it all together to send to the lenders--about two weeks. The lenders, so they say, have had the package since October 24, 2009. I called the lenders personally, and they verified that they were communicating with Nationwide Financial Solutions but had no answer thus far.
I called Nationwide Financial Solutions and spoke with Eric and a Sales Manager and expressed my frustration and disappointment. They suspended billing and promised me that they would continue to negotiate with the lenders to reduce the mortgages significantly. I have called Nationwide Financial Solutions three times since then and had to leave messages. I have yet to have any of those last three phone calls answered. Draw you own conclusions, but I am not paying them any more money. Futhermore, if they do not perform as they promised, a lawsuit with ensue----and I told them that. A final note: they have no testimonials of their success, that I can find, on their website.

I contacted Nationwide for a modification on my home loan. They told me not to pay any mortgage payments and that it won't be reported to the credit bureau. This was a lie. Then they continued to try and withdraw money monthly with out renewing the Temporary POA. They called and pretended to be working on my case when the mortgage company had already offered us a modification. We signed the papers and sent in the first payment. this company did not have a clue that the mod already happened without them. Again they tried to take another 666.62 from our acct, called us and stated"were working on your acct."

I am writing to thank you all for your complaints, my heart goes out to you all. This man tried to scam me also but thanks to some research I was able to close out my acct. before he could ever access it. He down right lied and was very misleading, These people should be prosecuted for fraud.

I paid Nationwide over 1000.00 and recieve absolutely nothing from them. All I wanted was for them to do a loan modification and I got nothing. They are a rip Off company. Beware of these scam artist. Ms E is unprofessional and will speak rudely to you, because she knows she has you hooked and you are at her mercy.
mike of philadelphia, PA November 20, 2009
tried to modify my mortgage,6 months later and 2,000.00 later im still in the same boat.tried to contact them all they say is its the mortgage co. or that its under review.i had to get an attorney to help save my home what a scam
ron of topeka, KS October 23, 2009
Paid this company 399.95 for 5 months only to find that we had to call them to get any info and the only answer we could get is that it is under review.They then kept saying we didnt need to pay our mortage and that the guy we dealt with had never lost a house.A few days later we got told they couldnt help us.All of our money went out the window for nothing.
Now we are looking at foreclosure ourselves on our house if we cant come up with 8,000 dollars and another 10,000 for attorneys fees.Totally unjust business by this company and now my kids will be forced to live somewhere else because of their incompetence.

I contracted with them for a Mortgage Loan Modificaton back in April 2009. Sent in all the paperwork that was needed to date we have paid them 1,500. I call them every week and every week they say the same thing. The bank is still reviewing our case. I was told that I didn't need to pay my mortgage payment til we settled and that the payments would not show up on my credit report.
Now 7 months behind The damage is the fact that we owe our mortgage company over 9,000.00 and feel I need help to resolve this matter with Nationwide Financial Solutions.
Craig of Oxford, MA October 12, 2009
I contracted with them for a Mortgage Loan Modificaton back in May 2009. Sent in all the paperwork that was needed to date we have paid them 1,969.80. I've tried calling and e mailing them and got nothing. I was told that I didn't need to pay my mortgage payment til we settled and that the payments would not show up on my credit report.
Now 6 months behind and on my credit report I can't get an answer from Nationwide on the status (if there is even a status). The damage is the fact that we owe our mortgage company over 10,000.00 and feel I need help to resolve this matter with Nationwide Financial Solutions.
