Consumer complaint received 2023-11-30
Product: Mortgage — VA mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Escrow, taxes, or insurance
Company: LAKEVIEW LOAN SERVICING, LLC (IL)

Lakeview Loan Servicing purchased my mortgage from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX of XXXX. All communication I received stated that everything would be transferred automatically and I just needed to take note of the new account number and the method that I use to pay my mortgage payment. Both my taxes and hazard insurance were part of my escrow from the day I obtained the original mortgage. In XXXX Lakeview paid my annual property tax from my escrow. In XXXX of XXXX they notified me that my hazard insurance was lapsing and they were going to bill me for insurance. My insurance did not lapse nor did it change. It was renewed in XXXX of XXXX just as it was in XXXX. When I reached out to Lakeview they said that my hazard insurance was never paid through escrow, that I paid it. I explained that was not true and I could provide documentation of XXXX payments through escrow. They did not care. They told me that I had to request my hazard insurance be added into escrow in writing, which I complied with. When I called to follow up on XX/XX/XXXX I was told that everything was received and should take effect on XX/XX/XXXX, however my insurance company may not get the check for premium that quickly. Since I had been communicating with my insurance company this entire time, XXXX XXXX XXXX, they allowed a grace period as they were also trying to reach out to Lakeview to help get this resolved. Today is XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX has never received payment. My account has never been updated. I now have to pay out of pocket for my premium. Lakeview can not be reached. Their automated system simply states that they apologize if you receive a message during business hours, please call back tomorrow. XXXX XXXX has reached out to them as well with no luck. I am furious that this company was allowed to purchase my mortgage and alter my previous choice to have my hazard insurance deducted from my escrow account. This was never discussed or asked of me. I can provide documentation to show that XXXX XXXX XXXX paid my hazard insurance and property taxes out of escrow in XXXX before Lakeview purchased my mortgage. They should not be able to do this to unsuspecting consumers.

Company: Winklevoss Exchange LLC (OH)

Background : Since XXXX, I've been a committed Gemini customer, consistently using the same approved bank account for deposits and a whitelisted wallet for withdrawals. Between XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, I deposited {$66000.00} via ACH which cleared by XXXX XXXX XXXX. Despite my longstanding trust in their platform, Gemini unexpectedly placed my funds under a 'security hold. ' Invasive Review Process : In the subsequent review, Gemini 's inquisition was notably intrusive : Questions about my salaried earnings. 
My intentions with the proposed withdrawal. 
My introduction to Gemini. 
For this review, they demanded evidence of income through bank statements, paystubs, and a specific selfie with my face, ticket reference, and passport. However, the reasons behind this 'security hold ' and its expected duration remain undisclosed. 

Communication Barriers : My attempts at dialogue with Gemini, whether on XXXX, XXXX, or email, are met with slow or non-existent feedback. Their absence of live support amplifies my frustrations. 

Emotional Impact : Having {$66000.00}, a sum representing years of diligent work, in a state of limbo is causing me immense stress and anxiety, deepened by the ongoing ambiguity from Gemini 's end. 

Requests : A transparent rationale for this sudden security hold. 
A clear indication of when I can expect a resolution. 
Enhanced and more responsive communication avenues from Gemini.

The conspicuous lack of concrete evidence substantiating its reliability, coupled with the circulation of unverified information, constitutes a flagrant violation of the statutory provisions outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). Such regulatory non-compliance is not merely disconcerting but also vexing, considering the paramount importance of adherence to legal mandates. Consequently, I emphatically endorse the prompt deletion of this account in alignment with the stipulated regulations, unless credible evidence is promptly furnished to affirm its authenticity. The failure to promptly rectify this matter further compounds the exasperation stemming from the disregard for legal protocols.

I am writing to formally dispute the unauthorized inquiry listed on my credit report, which is fraudulent in nature. Despite my multiple correspondences with your bureau and the submission of the required FTC Identity Theft Report, this inquiry remains on my credit file. As a victim of identity theft, I have taken all necessary steps to address this issue, including contacting the institutions associated with this inquiry and providing comprehensive documentation to substantiate my claims. Despite these efforts, your bureau has yet to resolve this matter satisfactorily. It is essential to note that the fraudulent nature of this inquiry has been confirmed by the respective institutions, and they have assured me that this inquiry was erroneous and should be removed. Furthermore, other credit bureaus have already acted on the FTC report and removed this unauthorized inquiry from their records. Therefore, I am perplexed and concerned by your bureau 's continued reporting of this fraudulent inquiry. This ongoing issue not only undermines the accuracy of my credit report but also causes significant distress and potential financial harm to me. Please remove the inquiry from my report XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
