100,000 Floridians Received Approximately $8.3 Billion in Relief Under National Mortgage Settlement
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. –Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that Floridians have received more than $8.3 billion in relief under the national mortgage settlement, as reported by the five largest mortgage servicing banks that are parties to the settlement. According to the Settlement Monitor’s report released today, more than 100,000 Floridians have received more than $7.7 billion in relief, with an additional $600 million in loan modifications underway. The report that Joseph A. Smith, Jr., Monitor of the National Mortgage Settlement, released today outlines the consumer relief activities the five have reportedly conducted since March 1, 2012.
“According to this report, more than 100,000 Floridians have benefitted from $8.3 billion in relief—more than 18 percent of the total relief provided nationally,” stated Attorney General Pam Bondi. “We will continue to closely monitor the banks’ compliance to ensure that Floridians receive the full benefits of the relief afforded under the settlement.”
The banks disclosed that, nationally, they have extended more than $45 billion in gross relief to more than 550,000 borrowers. These figures include active first lien trial modifications as well as completed relief. This relief is in addition to and separate from the payments to foreclosed borrowers, which are expected to be mailed to eligible claimants in mid 2013.
While this report covered homeowner relief provided under the settlement, future reports will include crediting for consumer relief activities of some or all of the banks and will include information about the banks’ compliance with the servicing standards, or reforms. The compliance reports are expected later this year.

Doesn’t the freedom of information act allow us to request a list of those so called Florida benefactors who rec’d such relief? Other than that, Pam Bondi is nothing but a blonde pumpkin at Halloween (EMPTY headed).
This Florida resident has not scene one dollar. They have never even acknowledged my complaint.
Pam Bondi: 100,000 Floridians Received Approximately $8.3 Billion in Relief Under National Mortgage Settlement
My calculator doesn’t go that high but… isn’t that like 100,000 Floridians dividing up 8.3 Billion dollars and receiving $83,000 per homeowner? WTF? I know a LOT of Floridians in foreclosure. I don’t know anybody who received a penny… If I can’t trust my math, I sure as hell don’t trust Pam Bondo.
so who received this money? 100, 000 people and no one spoke a word of this?
Recognizing an existing loss and memorializing it on paper doesn’t change anything , especially as this was a forced “concession” which will actually help the banks bottom lines as it will be a loss against their income (which is just US , the citizens shoveling $85Billion a month into their accounts buying crappy worthless assetts).
