Yup...that's what they're saying. If you don't use the fee it shouldn't appear on the HUD in either the GFE or the HUD column. It should just POOF! disappear.
Yup...total contradiction and idiodic, etc, etc, etc.
Yup...my system won't do it either without going back and removing the fee from the original GFE. A lot of work and time wasted.
I contacted my software provider the day after RESPA Round-up came out. They don't believe the Round-up is correct. They wrote HUD, didn't like the answer and now have a conference call scheduled with them for tomorrow. I'll let you know if I hear back from them.
Can I tell you how much fun it is to argue pro on an answer from HUD when you agree with the con (software provider) that this is s-t-upid?
