Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC (TX)

We have an insurance claim check from a settlement that was due final payment weeks ago after passing the final roof replacement inspection on XX/XX/2023. It was to be XXXX overnight but never was. The company was supposedly bought out and our mortgage and claim funds transferred even though part of the new company has the same name ( New Rez Shellpoint ). Weeks later, still no final disbursement has been mailed out, our bill is due to the roof company, the new mortgage company is nearly impossible to get through with long wait times, lots of transfers to different representatives, relentless identity questions and still no details on when the final check will be mailed or contact information on how to directly get a hold of the responsible department. This should be criminal and in my opinion the mortgage company is trying to delay payment for interest accmulation purposes.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (OK)

My account with EQUIFAX 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 reported in ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) to be removed.

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.

EQUIFAX 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
