Save Time with Our Automated Phone System

Read Time: 2 Minutes Date Published: March 27, 2025

Do you like waiting on the phone to speak with customer service? We didn’t think so. If you need to make a payment or check your principal balance, Newrez enables you to do this without having to waste your precious time on hold. We know you’re busy – take action on your loan at your convenience with our self-service phone system.

What Is an Automated Phone System?

An automated phone system, or interactive voice response (IVR), is technology that allows callers to make verbal requests and receive information without speaking with a live telephone operator. Newrez uses this technology to make our customer service more efficient, so you can make payments and get information about your mortgage on your own schedule. To reach our automated phone line, call 866-317-2347.

What Can I Do on Newrez’s Automated Phone System?

Once we have verified your identity, we will tell you when your last payment was received, when your next payment is due and the amount. We provide this information up front as a convenience to our borrowers because it is an extremely common inquiry.
