Also, i have previously contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX that i refuse to pay this debt and to stop all collection attempts. they failed to comply and attempted to collect the debt when i called them on Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX violating my consumer protection rights and violating the FDCPA. since i have not received what i have requested it made me believe that the accounts may not belong to me.

Company: BSI Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: GA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Complaint:
I called my mortgage company ( BSI Financial ) to inquired about the process to request a review of my mortgage to have my PMI removed in XXXX of XXXX. The representative I spoke with on at this time told me that I would need to procure an appraisal on my own and submit it to BSI for the request. She also told me that since I had refinanced within the last two-years that I would need to wait to submit my request until two-years had passed since my refinance, which would be in XX/XX/XXXX. 

So in XXXX of XXXX, I contacted a local real estate home appraisal firm in my area and paid {$400.00} to have an appraisal done on my home. Once I received the appraisal on XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted online it to BSI. When I called to speak with a representative on XX/XX/XXXX about next steps, I was told that they had changed their process, and now PMI removal requests required BSI to coordinate the appraisal ( for a fee of {$450.00} ) and that the one I had just paid for would not be acceptable. 

I explained to the representative that I had followed the process that I was originally instructed to do, and never received any communication from BSI that they had updated their process to know that this process had changed. The customer service representative forwarded me to her manager, who after speaking with his supervisor, indicated that they would waive the fee given the circumstances and told me to email him directly the appraisal that I had received for BSI to process. 

After not hearing from the manager or BSI for several weeks and multiple follow-ups, the manager finally called me on XX/XX/XXXX to tell me that they BSI was no longer going to waive the fee and if I wanted to submit a request to have my PMI removed, that I would need to pay the {$450.00} for a new appraisal. 

I told the manager, that if BSI was not going to resolve this, given I had followed their direction and paid for my own appraisal, that I would have to seek alternative avenues to resolve. He said that he would speak with his supervisor again and call me back, but to date, I have not been contacted from him or anyone from BSI on this issue.

Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) in 15 USC 1681 section 602 ( a ), it emphasizes the importance of ensuring that consumer reporting agencies carry out their significant responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a regard for the consumer 's right to privacy. XXXX, Equifax and XXXX function as consumer reporting agencies, and I, as the consumer, possess the right to ensure the non-disclosure of my private information, as supported by 15 USC 6801. This statute asserts the congressional policy that financial institutions must actively and consistently uphold customer privacy, safeguarding the security and confidentiality of nonpublic personal information.

Entities furnishing information to credit agencies, defined as financial institutions, fall under the scope of 15 USC 1681 section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), which stipulates that consumer reporting agencies may only provide a consumer report based on the written instructions of the respective consumer. In this case, the financial institution ( furnisher of information to credit agencies ) and the consumer reporting agencies ( XXXX, Equifax and XXXX ) lack my consent, written or otherwise, to furnish this information. Any previous consent provided to these entities, whether verbal, non-verbal, written, implied, or otherwise, is hereby revoked. 

Furthermore, 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) prohibits financial institutions from disclosing nonpublic personal information to nonaffiliated third parties unless the consumer is informed about how to exercise the option to prevent such disclosure. The furnisher of information to credit agencies failed to inform me of my right to exercise this nondisclosure option.

In addition, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) specifies that a consumer reporting agency may not include certain adverse items of information in a consumer report, and this includes any adverse information that predates the report by more than seven years. The account in question is an adverse item being reported without my permission, which is a violation of the law.

Moreover, 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) asserts that a person should not furnish information to a consumer reporting agency if they know or reasonably believe the information is inaccurate. XXXX, Equifax and XXXX are not adhering to reasonable procedures to avoid violations of the FCRA. 

Finally, according to 12 CFR 1016.7, a consumer retains the right to opt out of reporting services at any time. Therefore, I am opting out of the reporting services provided by these agencies.

Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC
State: CO
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
I am a XXXX working on the client 's behalf. My client was facing foreclosure. On XXXX/XXXX/15 the client submitted his first payment in participation of the 90 day deferment opportunity offered by Colorado Statute. All deadlines were met and the payment was sent according to the attorney 's instructions. On XXXX the payment was rejected by the loan servicer, Nationstar. My client called Nationstar and he was told by a representative that they do not " participate '' in the 90 day deferment. I contacted the attorney, XXXX and was told it would be taken care of, and that Nationstar did not have an option to " not participate '' per Colorado statute. I instructed the client to resubmit the payment. The second payment for the second month of the deferment was sent at this time as well. On XXXX/XXXX/15, both payments were sent back to my client. I contacted the attorney again, and was told they 'd be setting up a conference call with Nationstar to get it straightened out, and to resubmit the payments. I instructed my client to do so. On XXXX/XXXX/15, we filed an intent to cure, because my client had the funds to cure the mortgage delinquency. The attorney did not respond with figures until XXXX, after a second request for the figures had been sent. My client took the payment for curing the delinquency, in person, to the public trustee 's office and cured his delinquency. On XXXX/XXXX/15, my client received both of his deferment payments back again and a letter from Nationstar saying he now owed approximately {$2000.00} more than what the cure figures stated. I have attempted to contact the attorney and have not heard back. The public trustee of XXXX County had honored the deferment, and has withdrawn the foreclosure due to the payment to cure the delinquency. But Nationstar still has my client 's mortgage in an active foreclosure, and my client is not sure what to do next OR what to do with his XXXX money orders for the 90 day deferment. XXXX of the money orders is set to expire XXXX XXXX, so he will be depositing the money back into his account. If the deferment payments would have been accepted, as they should have been, his cure figures would have been different than the amount he paid. Additionally, he will be owed back some of the fees paid in the cure payment that had not yet actually accrued.
