Company: CARRINGTON MORTGAGE SERVICES, LLC (TX)

XX/XX/year> Borrower : XXXX XXXX Account # : XXXX Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Tx XXXX Attn : Carrington Mortgage Research Team Fax : XXXX Good Morning, My name is XXXX XXXX and I am a borrower who just recently hit 90 days late on my mortgage. I have been 60 days late for the past few months after paying medical bills and thinking that I would finally be able to catch my mortgage up in the next XXXX months. 

My last payment was submitted on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of XXXX via XXXX XXXX with the intent to make another payment on Tuesday of next week the XXXX and then a XXXX payment XXXX weeks from that day to bring my loan only due for this month of XXXX. 

Today I spoke with someone regarding my account since my payment never posted and found out that my payment was returned because it was received on XX/XX/year>. This totally puts an entirely different spin on being able to catch my mortgage up as now I will be required to do XXXX payments instead of the additional XXXX. 

I am not sure why the payment did not make it until XX/XX/XXXX, but my receipt that I have included does show where I made the payment well before XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I spoke with a representative this morning that informed me that the offices are open until XXXX on the XXXX so therefore there is no reason that it shouldnt have posted. 

I am asking that you research this issue and please apply these funds so that I can continue to make my XXXX payments this month and bring my loan current without needing to restructure my loan and have a higher interest rate. 

I can be reached at XXXX or emailed at XXXX. 

I will also be reaching out to CFPB regarding this issue and some of the other obstacles that I have ran into attempting to make these payments over the past few months that I have been behind and trying to catch up.

Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc (HI)

I booked a flight with XXXX and used affirm to extend payments as offered by XXXX at checkout. Within XXXX minutes I noticed an error in the booking arriving a day to late and called and canceled the booking as XXXX told me to do. I could not rebook because they didn't refund the money to affirm so I had to rebook elsewhere. XXXX shows other site and as agreed posted they refunded the money to my flight. Affirm never received the refund from XXXX according to their customer service. They continue to bill threaten and harass me. I have received confusing differing information from their customer service and XXXX is giving me the runaround. Please see documentation from their website showing a total refund to this flight that they are keeping and not sending to affirm for some reason. This is not what they are telling me. They need to send the money to affirm and affirm needs to stop emailing me saying I owe them. Their website shows a refund processing to XXXX but I'm being harassed.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (DC)

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

My account with XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX 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!
