I’ve been ripped off by a company who assured me, after taking a phone app that they could make me a real estate loan. They wanted $600 to begin the processing and this would be refunded if I didn’t qualify for the loan. After a month and several changes in the loan terms (in their favor) we reached a dead end. They wanted documents which were impossible to acquire to prove my ability to pay…i.e., bring us a letter from heaven which states you won’t die in the next five years– OK an exaggeration but not too far off. I did try to acquire the customized docs from govt agencies but was told that they don’t supply what I was asking for. So I explain this to the loan company but…they refuse to underwrite a loan for me or to refund my deposit. They want me to sign up for new (worse) terms. I refuse to sign anything else and they keep my deposit by claiming they didn’t turn me down for a loan, rather I refused to provide the required info. What do you think a judge would say?

First of all, that wouldn’t be a class action, that would be a simple civil suit. Class Actions involve many, many people. Call any civil lawyer in town, and tell tem about it. However, I’m sure a company like this would have tougher lawyers than you’ll be able to find and/or afford. Good luck.
Go to small claims court. No lawyers and fees needed.
Tell the judge what you wrote above, I think you should be OK.
If they demand things that you are unable to supply, and they are unwilling to proceed without, they are refusing the loan by making unreasonable demands of you!
You are dealing with crooks!
If they offered you different terms, they still offered you terms. If you refused the terms, then it’s on you. They are not crooks. Everyone thinks corporations are crooks.
You didn’t read the fine print.
Companies have to protect themselves. They have to require certain paperwork to eliminate their risk; to make sure the situation is the way you state that it is.
Don’t sue, go back and read the fine print.
