The Best People
If you want to use people who truly care and want to help you find the best option for a Home Loan, then Planet Home Lending is the best. Maralee and Richard made this stressful process pain free and very easy. They took the time to answers all of our questions and walked us through every step. I would highly recommend this company.

Randy Perre was amazing
Randy Perre was amazing, he is professional, walked me through the process. I made a mistake and he was able to resolve it. I never had a problem with him answering my calls, test messages and e-mails. I am now a home owner. I highly recommend Randy.

Planet home lending is incompetent
Three months and I still can't get them to recalculate escrow and payment. I'm at the point I'll take over doing this very basic task myself.

Worst company you can imagine
Worst company you can imagine. This company purchased my loan from another mortage lender and never notified me of the transfer and as a result my payment was late. They also intentionally disable your ability to pay online. In my personal opinion the company intentionally makes it inconvenient as possible to make your payments. I highly recommend if they buy your mortgage to immediately find a new company. Regardless if they make a mistake they will dock your credit and make it appear as if your the problem.

Five-Star Service - Highly Recommend
PHL is a reliable mortgage company that I would recommend. I encountered an issue after the refinance process, but Brian Jaeger addressed it promptly and effectively. While it is preferable for everything to proceed without complications, it is reassuring to know that PHL is committed to achieving customer satisfaction.

This is the absolute worst bank I’ve ever had to deal with in my life. Customer service is horrible. I will be refinancing soon if anything just to get away from them.

No such thing as a quick call
Tried to call for some simple questions, after 5 minutes of verifying I got annoyed when asked "what's the best time to call you?" I told them there wasn't and what does this have to do with verification. Ended up hanging up the phone because verification was taking so long and asking ridiculous questions like that.

Thanks for the feedback — and for trusting us with such an important milestone. We’re here for you and hope to be your lender of choice for years to come.
No follow up, terrible customer service
If I did not have an excellent rate I would go elsewhere. Don’t send in an escrow shortage payment because they will lose it. Then you will have to call 5 times and email them the same documents 3 times and now, on the phone, AGAIN, for an hour, since nothing has been done.

The company is vicious and toxic
The company is vicious and toxic. They fail to uphold any business practices given to them. They treat the customer in the most disrespectful manner as possible. If you ever have to speak customer service its like pulling teeth from a great white. Good luck with your loan if you ever get this company.
