Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: NFM, INC (CA)

I closed on the house in XX/XX/XXXX XXXX The lender required an escrow account to be created. 
Closing disclosures shows {$1600.00} as an initial escrow payment at closing ( Exhibit XXXX ). This amount is also reflected on the first mortgage statement from NFM Lending ( Exhibit XXXX ). My first mortgage payment was due to NFM Lending and I paid it in full ( Exhibit XXXX ). The first mortgage payment to NFM Lending in the amount of {$2400.00} consisted of {$1900.00} for Principal & Interest, and {$490.00} for Escrow funds collected. Later my loan was sold to XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX and the 2nd mortgage was due to XXXX XXXX ( Exhibit XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX confirmed that only {$1600.00} was transferred to them by NFM Lending and they provided the statement ( Exhibits XXXX and XXXX ). 
I called NFM Lending and asked what happened to {$490.00} escrow funds that I remitted to them with the first payment. The first couple of agents said that NFM Lending transferred those funds to XXXX XXXX, which was a lie and as a matter of fact those agents were very rude and impatient. On XX/XX/2023 I called NFM Lending again and requested about {$490.00} funds that they took from me and did not transfer to my new loan servicer. XXXX, this is the name that the agent provided, said that NFM Lending used those funds to pay for my insurance and taxes for that property. When I requested the details which insurance ( insurance was paid by me in full from the closing funds ) and which taxes ( there are no taxes due for this property as of today, XXXX XXXX XXXX assessors page has XXXX amount ), all of a sudden she remembered ( no surprise ) and said that another colleague had the answer and that that another colleague one will call me next day ( she did not bother to clarify the phone number to call, just another lie ). By the way, XXXX was not helpful and friendly either.

Greetings, Both my loans ( XXXX # : XXXX & XXXX # : XXXX ) were considered past due in XXXX despite the payment coming out of my account on the XXXX of XXXX for both loans. 

This has DESTROYED MY CREDIT without a fault on my own. I have been admitted to the XXXX XXXX XXXX program and need to take a loan for {$250000.00} and was denied because of this issue. Also, I am moving to California with my wife and daughter at the end of this month and won't be able to rent a home to live in with this issue at a high cost of living area ( XXXX XXXX ). I have had +12 years of on time 100 % payments before this issue and an almost XXXX credit for all these years. 

Few issues/notes here : The payments were withdrawn on the XXXX of XXXX versus the XXXX or before despite being on XXXX. Why were they not withdrawn on the XXXX? This is an issue from your end. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED. 
The payments for some reason got sent back to me after. Also, this is not my issue. If this is an overdraft issue, why would the money be withdrawn from my account in the first place? I also am a premier account holder with XXXX. 
The payments were made again on XXXX of XXXX. I also called and was told that the late fees were waived and that there will be no further issues, yet, this was sent to the bureas and DESTROYED MY CREDIT I am in no need for help paying for my mortgage, however, I have been sent multiple BLUE packets that went to the wrong address and took a while to get to me ( address is updated on the system ). 
I was not told that the 30 days count from the XXXX of the month rather than the XXXX. 
I have changed my auto pay date for the XXXX of each month to avoid this issue in the future all together. 

I have attached : XXXX bank transactions/date with regards to both mortgages.

XXXX does not disclose in their credit reporting criteria and terms of service that they report as a XXXX XXXX Account. This account type alone is a huge derogatory mark on anyones credit report even if the loan is paid as agreed and is in good standing. After a loan in good standing is closed, it can remain as a derogatory mark for as long as XXXX  years. I want these reports removed from my credit profile due to presenting as an installment loan and reporting as a consumer finance account instead. This has negatively affected my XXXX XXXX and profile.

" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.
