Geoff--
That's the PC thing to say, but what about the breach of law and ethics today?
How many borrowers are going to make a full phone call when they know someone(we don't know who at zillow) is going to listen to very private information?

How do we return the toll free number?
1) Zillow illegally wire tapped sensative coversations today and further until notified by zillow that this is disclosed to all parties involved on a phone call.
I think the red flag violations are $10,000 a piece. Andrew Adams has one today. Gregorio has one one today. Anyone else? $10,000 a piece is going to add up. Anyone from the FTC watching this today? You are looking at free money from zillow Mr/Mrs FTC chairman.
These $10,000 infractions will continue when unknowing parites pick up the phone at the house or another borrower is added with 3 way calling.
2) Zillow is currenly misrepresenting our phone numbers. I'm sure the FTC, my local banking commisioner, the attorney general and my company owner will love this.
Zillow-- Charge for the service you provide. I wish you all the success in the world, but don't brake laws as you do it.

Featured Rates are based on state rates for 5/1 ARM loans and are valid for the date shown, but they may change without notice. They are for consumers with a credit rating of 720 or higher and a 20% or higher down payment. Rate, terms, pre-paid finance charges, and APR may vary based on factors such as creditworthiness of the applicant(s), self employment status of the applicant(s), condo or townhouse structure, loan amount, and geographic location of the property.
If a lender does not offer a national rate, a state rate may be shown next to the lender's name. For example, 'Bank name (CA)'.
... and, it's free and anonymous

I received a call at around 1:30PM PST. I would dispute this as a lead and would like to know how you will handle this in the future when we are being charged for it. Since I receive multiple calls each day, I want to know how much of my time will have to be devoted to disputing calls from other states rather than closing loans and dealing with my clients.
Also, note that I was not given the requisite disclosure that is required in California when recording a call nor was I give any opportunity to opt out of the recording. If Zillow recorded this, I will remind you once again that it is a felony. Even 911 calls have the required tones to indicate your call is recorded and I did not hear them nor did I consent to being recorded.
As always, looking forward to a response.
