Before mortgage company pulled my credit in XXXX so my mortgage guy and the company writing the new loan didnt see the actual reporting of the late or missed payments from XXXX XXXX XXXX  but the damage was apparent and it raised my house payments over {$300.00} a month with the new company By the time I was able to investigate what the problem was new loan was written and so now Im on the hook for {$1300.00} a month my house payment which is over {$300.00} more than I was paying and if I dont somehow mitigate those damages I will have to sell my house I had no plans to do so On XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX after explaining my issue she stated that I was protected under CARES ACT until I came out of forbearance and then they could report it. She said that I was in a partial payment agreement she said that I had missed three payments and she was unaware of a loan modification I told her that what she was reporting to me was not correct that I hadnt missed any payments and I had done a loan modification and was never on a partial payment plan after speaking to her team leader name XXXX she informed me that the derogatory remarks were removed from my credit before the loan was closed and I told her that they should have never been reported on my credit and it had to of been a mistake and she admitted yes it was a mistake and it was removed however the damage has been catastrophic and Im not sure how to fix it It has cost me a lot of money damaged my credit and raised my house payment over {$300.00} a month for starters Im not even sure how deep the damage goes It is currently on all 3 of the reporting agency reports My score has rebounded somewhat but for someone who has no late or missed payments it is still quite low ( XXXX ) and looking at my current report there are several conflicting statements from Arvest making it very hard to understand XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MO XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX
