I used an escrow company to close for a house purchase on XXXX -2016 in XXXX , WA. I signed my paperwork in their office. I did not receive copies of what I signed. They overcharged me fees, and after closing, mailed my {$160.00} refund check to the incorrect address. They mailed it to my previous address, not the address of my new home I closed on that day. I never received the refund check or my paperwork. Now they are demanding to deduct {$45.00} from my refund for a stop payment fee for the check they mailed to the incorrect address. They said they do not have control over the United States Postal Service. I would like help in getting my full refund, and copies of my final settlement statement, and paperwork. In past real estate transactions, I received funds/refunds the day of closing at closing. They did not have a problem calling me when they needed something, however, they did not call me when I had a refund coming I could have easily picked up considering their office is less t han 2 mi les from my home. Something else is how Point Escrow 'price matched ' on their fees was deceiving. Their fee was {$1800.00}. I found a company whose fee was {$1500.00}. I appreciated the price matching, however, they only lowered my half of the fee by {$150.00}, instead of lowering it by {$300.00}. They said if the seller sent the price match in, they would lower it for his half. I thought since I found the price match, that my fee would be lowered by the full {$300.00}. It ends up I had to tell the seller about the price match, and provide the info to him to send in for the price match too. I had to ask him if he would reimburse me for the savings I found, or use it towards a professional cleaner for the house. Awkward, and of course, neither happened. Thank you!
