I've learned that the creditor didn't provide the necessary 21-day notice along with a statement, which would have given me enough time to process payments and avoid late fees on these accounts. This mistake has caused a misrepresentation of the payment status, indicating a billing error by the creditor.

Department of Revenue Case Number : XXXX Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Federal courts recently have issued rulings about the use of consumer reports for the collection of an account under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 1 These cases note that certain definitions were added to the FCRA as part of the 2003 amendments ( FACT Act ). In particular, the word credit was defined. As a result of the new definition the position that is being advocated is that a collection of an account is a permissible purpose to obtain a consumer report only when the collection is in connection with a credit transaction. 
The courts have specifically rejected prior case law and FTC guidance that a judgment creditor had permissible purpose, noting that those decisions pre-dated the FACT Act. These cases have held that a delinquent child support obligation, municipal fines arising from parking tickets, and a statutory debt resulting from the towing and impound of an illegally parked vehicle did not arise from a credit transaction. As a result, the courts found that collection of those accounts was not a valid permissible purpose to obtain a consumer report. 
If you use XXXX consumer report services in connection with the collection of an account, we advise you to promptly review the new case law with your regular attorney or compliance advisor. 
XXXX will be contacting each customer that is a third-party collector to discuss this issue. We expect to confirm with you that you are in compliance with this new interpretation. Until then, unless you advise otherwise, we are relying upon you to comply with your contract with XXXX and this new interpretation of the law. This means that you may obtain XXXX reports for collection purposes only when collecting on an obligation arising from a credit transaction, or where you have the written authorization of the consumer or a court order to obtain a consumer report. 
As an example, for collectors of delinquent child support debt, judgments, fines, or liens, you must have in hand : A court order authorizing a consumer reporting agency to provide a consumer report, A written authorization from the debtor to obtain a consumer report, or Some type of contractual agreement with the consumer that rises to the level of a credit transaction under law

Company: LD Holdings Group, LLC (IL)

I have an XXXX  XXXX with Loandepot. This consisted of the purchase cost of the property as well as a renovation budget. This renovation budget is being held in escrow by Loandepot with payments being drawn following the completion of work. Any remaining balance from the renovation budget would be applied to the principal due on the loan. 
However, the building burnt down leading to a total loss. This is outside the scope of the prior renovation budget in escrow. 
The problem is these funds are still with Loandepot and they require I keep making interest payments on the full balance including escrowed funds, pending their investigations. These investigations have no set timeline. I do not find this a fair deal as there is over XXXX XXXX XXXX dollars in escrow which if applied to my principal payment would offset my total interest payments on the mortgage. 
So far, discussions with Loandepot have not yielded anything.
