Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: AR
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage
Sub-issue: Foreclosure

Complaint:
I am the successor in interest to a family home in XXXX XXXX XXXX. It took numerous attempts over the course of a year to get Mr. Cooper the mortgage servicer to recognize this. Since then I have requested a validation of the debt and the payoff amount. I requested any and all available loss mitigation options to be presented. None of these have been done or provided. They have on multiple occasions tried to assert the property is vacant and send people to " maintenance the property '' to which I have responded on each occasion that the property is not vacant. I believe this was done to ultimately cause more fees to be assessed making it more difficult to keep the property. I have not been properly noticed of the immanent foreclosure. No proof that Mr . Cooped has the legal right, standing, authority to foreclose and sell the property. Upon my own investigation I have discovered Mr. Cooper is demanding the remaining principle of {$35000.00}, plus {$14000.00} in missed payments, and {$7000.00} in " lender paid expenses ''. There is no details as to what these charges are for. The {$14000.00} includes principle amounts that the are adding to the states remaining principle balance in an effort to get more money in profits that could possibly be owed. I believe this to be a unconscionable and deceptive practice that was done intentionally by the mortgage servicer. I called the servicer and the services attorney-in-fact to try and have the sales set aside because of failure to provide required documentation as prayer console state law As well as failure to have properly appraised prior to Initiating foreclosure proceedings. The company has a history Of predatory and wrongful acts towards customers. The company also informed me on a phone call that they were not going to follow state law even though they've been put on notice that they're in violation.

Complaint:
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting act XXXX XXXX  Bankruptcy case number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  Bankruptcy case number XXXX XXXX XXXX account number XXXXXXXX XXXX  account number XXXX XXXX account number XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX account number XXXX all of these companies have violated my rights.

These reporting agencies have continued to defame my character, as well as with their continued identity theft since I have never given written authorizations to share any of my personal information, including bankruptcy to any third party entities. This reporting has caused grave harm not only to my character, by causing humiliation, stress, health issues, problems in my marriage, and paying higher interest rates for insurance, etc. According to to the XXXX XXXXXXXX Bankruptcy Court of New York they do not report bankruptcies to any consumer reporting agencies and the information is only available in Pacer. So these unscrupulous consumer reporting agencies go digging for consumers private information just to sell for a profit off of our mis fortunes and hardships, just to keep us a slave to subprime higher interest lending tactics. When i call to have something resolved they act like they cant verify me, and YET they see the information on their end, and they continue to send documents to my home address. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE XXXX XXXX report submitted on XX/XX/23 case number XXXX DOES NOT HAVE A BANKUPTCY REPORTING

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
My name is XXXX XXXX, and I am filing a complaint because my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act have been violated by XXXX XXXX XXXX. In XXXX of XXXX, I became aware that XXXX had reported a Credit card charge-off on my credit report. I disputed this account and requested through the three credit burease and to XXXX directly if that could produce a signed contract that is needed to verify an account according to the FCRA. They did not have the required documentation to verify this account. I went through five rounds of reinvestigations over the course of two and a half years and not once were they able to produce any documentation that would verify this account in accordance with the FCRA. It has now been over seven years since this account was listed delinquent and it is time-barred from being reported on my credit report. After notifying XXXX of the law and their inability to continue to report this debt, I was met with an act of retaliation. XXXX recently flagged that account as a charge-off, again, even though it was charged-off over seven years ago. How can an account be charged-off more than once? This is clearly inaccurate and is a deliberate act to harm me for the protected activity of requesting verification of a debt. This retaliatory act has caused my credit score to drop significantly and has defamed my character. This caused me to be denied for a home and for lines of credit, leading to direct financial damages and permanent defamation of my character. My only goal was to get XXXX to follow the law, now I am paying the price. I am requesting that XXXX XXXX XXXX comply with the requirements of the Fair Credit reporting act and the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act and delete this time-barred account from my credit report. If XXXX refuses to follow the law, I will file suit for Defamation of Character, Retaliation, and Fraud under the FCRA.
