Consumer complaint received 2023-12-18
Company: Freedom Mortgage Company
State: WI
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: VA mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process
Sub-issue: Escrow, taxes, or insurance

Complaint:
I am a total, permanently XXXX veteran with a VA mortgage with Freedom Mortgage. 
I am exempt from paying property tax in WI. 

Over the course of this past year Freedom Mortgage has acknowledged my property tax exemption status, not charging/billing me for any escrow amounts for property tax in my monthly bill. My monthly mortgage payment had been : XXXX of {$310.00}, XXXX of {$280.00} and XXXX of {$100.00} for Home Insurance, for a total monthly bill of {$700.00}. 

However, just last week Freedom Mortgage sent me letters demanding that I pay them {$1200.00} every month beginning in XXXX of 2024. That amounts to over {$6000.00} over the course of the upcoming year which Freedom Mortgage wants to keep in escrow to pay property taxes. BUT I AM EXEMPT FROM HAVING TO PAY PROPERTY TAX. 

Freedom Mortgage has in their records the official letter / certification from the Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs confirming my tax exempt status. But for some reason they are no longer taking this seriously. This exemption that I have never expires. It says so on the certification letter. 

Freedom Mortgage seems corrupt to the core, trying to extort monies or advantages any way they can. Your agency recently fined Freedom Mortgage {$1.00} XXXX dollars for giving illegal kickbacks to realtors/real estate brokerages. 

Freedom Mortgage needs to be taken to task again.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Subject : Dispute of Charge-Off Under 15 U.S.C. 1666a Alleged Illegal Down Payment and Unauthorized Credit Inquiry Dear XXXX XXXX, I am writing to formally dispute the charge-off on my credit report related to my account XXXX. I assert that the charge-off was based on a down payment that I believe was inaccurately deemed illegal, coupled with an unauthorized credit inquiry. I am invoking my rights under the Fair Credit Billing Act, specifically 15 U.S.C. 1666a, to address and rectify these issues.

Account Number : XXXX  Date of Charge-Off XXXX XXXX I recently discovered that the down payment made on XX/XX/2023 has been incorrectly categorized as illegal under the Fair Credit Billing Act. I believe this mischaracterization has led to the unwarranted charge-off on my credit report. Attached herewith are documents supporting the legality of the down payment, including receipts and relevant transaction records.

Additionally, I have reason to believe that an unauthorized credit inquiry was conducted in relation to this account, which may have adversely affected my credit score. I request comprehensive details on the nature and purpose of this inquiry, as well as any documentation proving the authorization obtained for such an action.

In light of the aforementioned discrepancies, I kindly request a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the alleged illegal down payment and unauthorized credit inquiry. I am entitled to fair and accurate reporting of my credit history, and it is crucial that these matters be promptly addressed and rectified. 

As a remedy, I am seeking the removal of the charge-off from my credit report. I kindly ask you to correct any inaccuracies and update my credit report accordingly.

Please provide documentation supporting the charge-off, details regarding the down payment 's legality, and information on the unauthorized credit inquiry. Additionally, I request copies of any agreements, statements, or correspondence related to this account. 

I am aware of my rights under 15 U.S.C. 1666a and expect your timely response to this dispute. Your cooperation in resolving these issues promptly is appreciated. Add I wish you to cease and desist. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a swift resolution. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2023

Complaint:
Complaint Regarding Credit Report Inaccuracies Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a complaint regarding inaccurate information on my credit report. I have been actively disputing these inaccuracies with the credit bureaus, but they have failed to adequately investigate my claims or remove the incorrect information. In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I attached the PDF file below containing the list of items that have violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681. 

Credit Bureau stated everything was complete and accurate. But how is that possible if the open date, date of last activity and much more is incorrect. According to 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ), they are supposed to modify or delete accounts that aren't reporting correctly. 

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 

I also believe that the credit bureaus have violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by failing to : 1. Investigate my disputes in a timely and reasonable manner : The credit bureaus have not provided a clear explanation for their decision not to remove the inaccurate information, and I believe their investigation was inadequate. 

2. Furnish accurate information to creditors : The inaccurate information on my credit report is harming my ability to obtain credit and other financial services. 

3. Follow the FCRA 's dispute resolution procedures : The credit bureaus have failed to comply with the timeframes and procedures outlined in the FCRA. 

I am requesting that the CFPB investigate my complaint and take the following actions : 1. Order the credit bureaus to remove the inaccurate information from my credit report. 

2. Require the credit bureaus to provide me with a copy of my updated credit report reflecting the changes. 

Enclosures : Copies of my credit reports Copies of my dispute letters Copies of any supporting documentation I provided to the credit bureaus

They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

In XXXX of XXXX I began the process to have the company remove by PMI. I finally got the company ( Freedom Mortgage ) to remove my PMI as of XX/XX/XXXX. Eleven months later on XX/XX/XXXX, they charged me {$950.00} for 11 months of PMI premium and then in XX/XX/XXXX they again charged me my monthly premium {$86.00}.
