A Deed of Trust was recorded on behalf of Nationstar in relation to that financing ( on or about XXXX XXXX, XXXX ) ... but on XXXX XXXX, XXXX there was an additional Financing Statement recorded on behalf of Nationstar. Please see attached preliminary title report. We are now trying to refinance with a new mortgage company and can not get Nationstar to release the UCC # 3 document which would release this XXXX lien they recorded on our property. We believe that they mistakenly or fraudulently placed this XXXX lien on our property. We have tried to obtain the UCC # 3 document from Nationstar since XXXX XXXX, XXXX. We have contacted them numerous times by phone and email and they give us no reason why they cant give us the UCC # 3 document or why the lien was even placed on the property. The individuals that we have been in contact with are no longer answering our requests. No one will call us back and no one seems to know what is happening with our request. In other words, I feel like we are getting the run around from Nationstar. More details can be provided if necessary along with names and email addresses of those individuals we have been dealing with.

Company: John C. Heath, Attorney at Law, PLLC (CA)

Lexington Law Firm is misrepresenting their outbound customer service as being " paralegals ''. They are not! When I asked on 3 different occasions to be connected with a US licensed paralegal, I am being told that all calls are rerouted to the call centers located outside of the US. 
I did ask to the last customer service representative her name is " XXXX '' if she was a paralegal, she said yes. I asked her if she was licensed in the US she said no. Then I asked to be connected to a US paralegal, she then told me to hang up and try calling again but that all calls are rerouted. 
I have several issues on my case I need to discuss and for this, I need a trained and licensed paralegal and not an impersonator. 
I have been with that company for over 13 years and paying {$49.00} / month. Things never seem to move fast enough. My credit has improved by my own doing. All they have done is send generic letters to the credit bureaus without specific or personalized explanations. When I pointed out some issues which should not be there and require a personalize intervention, they turned me down. This company charges you a subscription for " credit repair '' services. All they provide you with is print and mail letters you can probably do on your own. Unfortunately, when you are as vulnerable as I was 13 years ago, trusted them when they told me that the process would take no longer than 1 year, it has been 13 years! How much longer does it take to correct the same problem?

I am writing to formally dispute an outdated and inaccurately reported account that has surfaced on my credit report. This matter is of utmost gravity as it directly implicates violations of consumer protection laws, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and may warrant further legal action. 

Upon thorough examination, I have identified an installment account, labeled as XXXXDept of ED Loan , with a purported amount of {$2000.00}, which does not accurately reflect my current financial status. This discrepancy extends throughout my entire credit profile, encompassing inaccuracies in Account Numbers and the surreptitious concealment of pertinent account details. I have multiple pieces of evidence to substantiate my claim. Therefore, this shall be rectified immediately. I have a personal attorney ready and compliant for legal proceedings. 

**Disputed Account Information : ** - **Account Name : ** XXXX/Dept of ED Loan - **Amount : ** {$2000.00} Furthermore, the reported last day of activity on this account does not align with the actual date of my last payment, presenting a clear distortion of my credit history. These disparities have been meticulously documented across all credit bureaus and shall serve as compelling evidence as I pursue corrective measures to rectify the inaccuracies within my credit report. 

It is imperative to underscore that the mislabeling of accounts, such as incorrectly designating an account as " paid as agreed '' when it was not, or inaccurately labeling another as " deferred, '' constitutes severe violations of consumer protection laws, particularly the FCRA. 

I hereby demand your immediate attention to this matter and expect a swift resolution in full accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) guidelines. As mandated by FCRA regulations, I insist on receiving a response within 10 days from the date of this correspondence. Failure to expeditiously address and rectify these egregious inaccuracies will compel me to pursue all necessary legal recourse against the credit bureau.
