Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to formally dispute a late payment reported on my credit account with Possible Finance, in accordance with 15 U.S. Code 1666b. 

Account Information : Account Holder : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Date of Late Payment : XXXX and XXXX Creditor : XXXX XXXX I recently discovered that a late payment has been reported on my credit report, stating that I am 60 days late. I believe this reporting is inaccurate and unfair due to significant technical issues with XXXX XXXX 's app, which directly affected my ability to make timely payments. Specifically : App Glitches : XXXX XXXX XXXX app has been extremely glitchy, making it impossible to schedule payments properly. Despite multiple attempts, the app failed to process my payment scheduling. 

Support Delays : When I reached out to XXXX XXXX XXXX customer support for assistance, the response was significantly delayed. By the time support adjusted the payment schedule, it did not reflect correctly on the app, and the payment did not process as intended. 

These issues were beyond my control, and I made every effort to ensure my payments were made on time. The technical failures and support delays directly resulted in the reported late payment, which I believe should not impact my creditworthiness. 

I kindly request that you investigate this matter and delete the late payment from my credit report with all three credit reporting agencies : XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax. Attached to this letter are copies of relevant documentation, including communication with XXXX XXXX 's support team and any other pertinent information. 

I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to a prompt resolution. Please confirm receipt of this dispute and inform me of the outcome at your earliest convenience. 

Thank you for your time and understanding. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, OH XXXX XXXX XXXX

I want to emphasize that I did not provide written authorization for the inclusion of these specific transactions in my consumer report.

Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account — 
Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (TX)

XX/XX/XXXXTo Whom It May ConcernREF : Borrower requested cancellation of PMI and refund amount of excess PMI paid alreadyThis is in regard to the communication I have been having with NationStar Mortgage in regard to my PMI Cancellation requestBased on my PMI Disclosure statement which was provided to me when we ( my wife and I ) signed up on the closing of our house and obtained mortgage XX/XX/XXXX, it clearly states that, irrespective of the outstanding loan balance, my PMI should be immediately removed XX/XX/XXXX. 

The date for my principal balance of the loan to reach 80 % has already passed by, and I sincerely requested them to cancel the PMI payment immediately from the total amount of my monthly payments. 

In fact, as further stated in the document, the PMI will automatically terminate on the date the principal balance of my loan is first scheduled to reach 78 % of the original value of the property, based solely on the initial amortization schedule for my loan and irrespective of the outstanding balance of my loan on that date. This date is XX/XX/XXXX. 

The mortgage company told me to follow up with them after making the XX/XX/XXXX instalment, and I did contact them again in this matter. 
They are now responding that I still need to continue and pay PMI till 70 % of the original value of property. 
This is not right, since the PMI disclosure already has 78 % XX/XX/XXXX for PMI to be removed. 

Please look into my case and kindly take necessary action accordingly.
