In XX/XX/XXXX it is showing a decline in my credit report of almost XXXX points. I pay a monthly monitoring subscription however, there was no notification sent in the month of XXXX and looking into my history there was no explanation of why it drop drastically. 
Due to not receiving an alert during the month of XXXX, I did not see this change until recently, and I began to contact Equifax. 
I started out with looking over all items on my credit report and all items look sufficient with no excessive usage or inquiries and all on time. I also contacted other reporting agencies such as XXXX XXXX and XXXX credit reporting and my score runs between XXXX and XXXX unlike Equifax report in at XXXX, dropping from XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. I also open other credit cards and applied for a vehicle loan all of which do not show this credit score in the XXXX, which I see on my equifax.com website. Still not understanding why credit score showing in equifax is so low considering my diligent and prestige credit usage and maintaining. 
I am reaching out to you, all and efforts of an investigation of why the credit score in XXXX drop drastically, because I am unable to receive any assistance, contacting and speaking with representatives of Equifax. I was told that they can not discuss my credit score with me, and that I should talk with a credit advisor, which is not within Equifax.

Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC
State: PA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: FHA mortgage
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
My loan was recently sold from one mortgage servicer that was doing a great job to another mortgage servicer called Nationstar Mortgage that is not doing a great job. I just went through a situation regarding my escrow account that I wanted to share with you. I pay my bill on time every month. I received a tax bill from my local township that needed to be paid from my escrow account by XXXX XXXX. I contacted them to pay the bill XX/XX/XXXX. On the XXXX call I offered to fax them the bill, but they declined stating they will just call them and get the amount. After the bill was n't paid XX/XX/XXXX, I started calling them constantly to plead with them to pay the bill on time to make sure I received the 2 % discount. They would tell me it was paid, but nothing had come out of my escrow. After my XXXX or XXXX call, I was elevating to a supervisor to talk about the issue. Finally they paid late and covered the late fee. This started more problems with my escrow. Because the bill was n't paid on time, there was an analysis that states annual escrow account disclosure form that states I have a surplus of {$320.00}. They sent me a check. I called again and explained that this money was supposed to pay the taxes not be sent to me. That was on XX/XX/XXXX. They ran another ANNUAL escrow account disclosure on XX/XX/XXXX stating I owe {$390.00} due to escrow shortage! What is going on with this company. The icing on the cake is I sent in the {$390.00} with the escrow slip they provided and they applied the full amount to principal. This was an escrow shortage payment sent in with the slip they provided and now I have to call them again to have this money placed correctly into Escrow. I have had several mortgage servicers and this is the worst customer experience ever. I am completely stressed out and was hoping your organization to fix the incompetence at Nationstar Mortgage.

Sub-product: Loan
Issue: Struggling to pay your loan
Sub-issue: Denied request to lower payments

Complaint:
I have an auto loan with Santander for my 2019 XXXX. During the pandemic I called to refinance for a lower rate after making on time payments and they declined. I continued to make payments until I fell iXXXX XXXX XXXX. I had to request a few extensions. During one of the times I had a hardship, I was told that I was approved for the payments to be deffered but I never received any paperwork to sign so that resulted in a negative report on my credit and my credit score was lowered. The company refused to help even though I explained that the hardships were XXXX related. My vehicle was recently totaled in XXXX, on the date the payment was due. I called Santander to inform them and ask how I should handle paying or if I should be waiting for the insurance to pay it. I was told that my account was in the legal department and someone would call me back. I never received a call so I called back a few weeks later to see what my next steps should be and was again informed that I would have to wait for the legal department to give me a call. They never called. I called again today and was told that my payment will now be reported because it is past due and that I should have just mad a payment even though the car was totaled in XXXX. I tried explaining to the representative that I called several times because I didn't know how to handle things and that at this point I really could not afford another negative impact to my credit but she would not hear me out and insisted on transferring me to the insurance department. I really don't know what to do and another negative mark on my credit will put me in my family in a horrible bind. This company continues to ignore me and pass me around.
