Company: PARAMOUNT RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE GROUP (FL)

It has been 10 weeks since I applied for a mortgage loan with PRMG. We have gotten nothing but the run around. My file was escalated to the branch manager, who told me I had been denied due to collections. I informed the branch manager that was wrong, and provided evidence to prove I do not have the number of collections he said I did. Branch manager never returned my call. My file was then escalated to the VP and he was able to remove my file out of the denial state and told me they would be working on it. Now we are dealing with the underwriter not calculating the condominiums association reserves correctly. My realtor along with the condo association has provided the lender with all the information needed for them to correct their calculating mistakes, and still nothing has been resolved. This has gone on long enough. I feel like PRMG has not been honest, this closing could have been done weeks ago. Both myself and the sellers patience is running extremely thin, and no one at PRMG seems to care too much to get a closing on this file.

Company: FRANKLIN AMERICAN MORTGAGE CO. (TX)

To Whom It May Concern : My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX. I hope this e-mail finds you doing well and enjoying the summer. 
I am a voting resident of XXXX XXXX and am writing to request you assistance with an issue regarding Franklin American Mortgage. I paid off my home on XXXX XXXX, 2016. I was told that under the law, the lender has 30 days to refund the monies from the escrow - in this case, an amount of {$6400.00}. I was told by my lender, Franklin American Mortgage, that they have released these funds on XXXX XXXX. I was also told they released them but they had yet to be mailed nor received by me. As of XXXX XXXX, I still have not received escrow refund and it is now well past the 30 days during which the lender is supposed to refund the money. I have called Franklin American Mortgage no fewer than five times and each time I get a different answer as regards their escrow release process. I am also concerned that they are using US mail and not FedEx or a a return receipt so if a large check gets lost, they can say its not their problem and hold onto my money longer. My concern is that if Franklin American Mortgage is doing this to me, they are doing it to other homeowners as well. I have asked them to please wire the money or FedEx a check ; their representatives tell me that they are unable to do so. Can you kindly provide assistance? 
My loan account number with Franklin American Mortgage is # XXXX ; my property address is XXXX XXXX, XXXX, TX, XXXX Regards XXXX

My account with XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 


This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 


I demand the late payment to be updated. 


They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 


15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 


XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

My credit rating went from the high XXXX 's to low XXXX 's. Whenever we speak with a Navient rep, they argue with us and trying to turn the conversation back to us making a payment over the phone.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (OH)

I have a business account that is showing on my personal credit - it should not be reporting on my personal report and if it was going to be, someone should have sent to me what I believe is known as a dunning letter so that i can have the opportunity to address the information, edit, acknowledge or correct.     I have had this business account for quite sometime and it was never reporting on my personal report and now ironically it is, plus it is reporting inaccurate information.     For the record when a consumer uses business credit it has a totally different standard -- for example you are not penalized for using the credit, therefore if It had ever been reporting on my personal credit, or disclosed that it may be, I would have never used more than 40 % of the credit so that my  credit score would not be impacted. This is unfair and is causing me great harm this account has caused my credit score to be impacted in a very negative way. Ihave never been  late on this account and it is showing late and a higher than what is acceptable for personal credit and there is no way to differentiate between personal and business credit on a personal credit profile, and as i said earlier I was never notified of the addition. And anyone who knows me, know th at i am anal about my cre dit and work very dilligently to pay everything on time and within the guidelines so that my score is never impacted negatively.

Was XXXX contacted by a strange number XXXX XXXX XXXX, when answering the call the caller refused to say anything. When I called them back I was asked about personal information such as name, previous addresses and social security number. They ( Contract Callers ) claim it was a debt from a credit card first saying in XXXX and then changing it to XXXX. I told them I did n't know anything about this credit card company in question, and that they were in fact violating my rights by not contacting me via XXXX mail with information containing the alleged debt. I was talk to very rudely and told them I would have my attorney view the allegations as it seem to be fraudulent or perhaps even a scam. It was suggested by the representative that I may have been a victim of Identity theft however, I use credit protection and alert systems that notify me of such matters so I think its completely a lie.

The complaint case # is XXXX. 
Roundpoint has continued to stall in making any decisions on this account and also has not replied to the complaint submitted on XX/XX/XXXX, other than " Roundpoint needs more time '' That again is a stalling tactic. the single point of contact " XXXX XXXX '' has continued to tell me that I can not get any info from the correspondence dept regarding what is going on with that complaint. He has also said that the file is still under review and has not been responded to although they say its been complete since XX/XX/2016. It is now XX/XX/XXXX without an underwriters decision. This file has been under review with Roundpoint since XX/XX/XXXX. That is 4 months too long to highjack any file and just let the borrower continue to make payments without any response to a bonafide offer that is ready to close. Please get Roundpoint to respond appropriately and legally.

Company: Specialized Loan Servicing Holdings LLC (AL)

My first complaint addresses the fact that XXXX XXXX XXXX sold my mortgage loan to a company by the name of ( SLS ) Specialized Loan Servicing , LLC. However, I was never informed by XXXX XXXX XXXX of this transfer. ( SLS ) did in fact inform me of the transfer after the fact by sending me a mailed letter through regular mail XX/XX/XXXX. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, I called XXXX XXXX XXXX concerning a letter that they had sent to me stating that I had missed four payments. The representative and myself from XXXX XXXX XXXX went over my payment history and could not find these four missed payments. However, during this call ; there was no mention about of a loan transfer. As a matter of fact, the last thing she asked me was " When was I sending in my next payment ''? 
Also, ( SLS ) sent me a letter stating that they will foreclose on my home on XX/XX/XXXX. I have submitted the letter that was sent, and copies of my Bank statements showing all of my payments. Be informed that, UCC 3502 states that if you were late, you are in dishonor, but from the moment they accepted your payment ( cashed your check or posted payment to your account ) then it is to be treated as never being in dishonor ( never being late ). 
I have attached the document labeled XXXX # XXXX which is the last letter and only recent letter that was sent to me by XXXX. It mentions nothing about my loan being transferred. If XXXX XXXX XXXX claim that they informed me of the transfer ; that will be a false statement.
