Unfortunately you went swimming with sharks. They can indeed
accelerate your loan if you technically fall into default
(according to the terms of the contract). I don't see why they
would rather accelerate than accept a properly offered "cure"
(payment of all due amounts and penalty/interest charges to
date) but they can if they want.
Good luck with them -- you have my sympathy which won't help
you but it is sincere.
