Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (SC)

This is a continuation of complaint XXXX, since the servicer did NOT resolve the issue described in that complaint. The company 's response to that complaint included this : " We show that the account was setup on our Max Pre-pay Plan on XX/XX/XXXX. Please note that this allows for the additional funds to be allocated for payments, which is why the funds were being designated as unapplied funds until they were enough to satisfy a monthly payment. We understand that this is not what you were requesting and apologize that you were setup on this plan. We currently show that the account is no longer setup on this plan and should not have any further issue with the payment application. " Firstly, I never requested my account be set up on such a plan in the first place. During that XX/XX/XXXX call with a customer service rep, I was trying to resolve another payment issue in which my entire payment had been converted to purely interest curtailment ; the customer service rep told my my account had been set up incorrectly, and he could change it so that any additional amount I payed above the required minimum payment would automatically go towards principal curtailment. That sort of account alteration is what I agreed to. There was no mention of a plan named " Max Pre-pay Plan '', nor was the change he was going to be making described as any additional payment above the required minimum payment getting dumped into " Unapplied funds '' with no curtailment of principal. 

In addition, regarding the company 's statement that " We currently show that the account is no longer setup on this plan and should not have any further issue with the payment application. '' I submitted another payment XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$3200.00}, which included a monthly payment amount of {$2000.00} and an additional principal amount of {$1200.00}. The on-screen confirmation as well as the emailed confirmation accurately reflect my instructions for applying the payment, as described. Despite those confirmations, the company decided to not follow those instructions upon payment processing, instead treating the additional principal payment as " Unapplied funds '' which did not curtail the principal balance : Unapplied Funds XX/XX/XXXX {$1200.00} {$0.00} {$0.00} {$0.00} {$1200.00} {$340000.00} Monthly Payment XX/XX/XXXX {$2000.00} {$710.00} {$930.00} {$390.00} {$0.00} {$340000.00}

On XX/XX/2024, I checked my credit report and noticed an alert of a delinquent XXXX account with overdue credit charges that had contributed to my credit score dropping by near XXXX points. These overdue credit charges were approximately {$160.00} from a XXXX credit account/credit card which I had NEVER started or had no idea how it came about nor did I recognize it. This fraudulent account was supposedly opened around XX/XX/2024. To clarify, I NEVER personally started a XXXX XXXX account nor got a credit card and bought stuff with it nor did I ever even inquire about one. I reported this to XXXX XXXX as identity theft/fraud and this fraudulent account was frozen and closed and put under investigation. During this process, it was reported to me that the individual who started this account used all of my information except for my current mailing address, the mailing address used was a California mailing address proving the fraudulent act as I live in West Virginia and have my mailing address in West Virginia and have never had an address in California. This is all currently under investigation. After this, I contacted Experian and XXXX to dispute these fraudulent issues on my credit report, and these disputes are currently in process as well.

In my view, the absence of documentary evidence on compliance reporting standards and relevant consumer law is a cause for concern. It is of great concern to me that this omission has not been made. I'd like to ask you to rectify this erroneous and incorrect report as soon as possible. Failure to do so may lead to legal recourse due to a failure to comply with the necessary legal obligations in those areas. In order to avoid any future problems, it is important to understand the precise nature of documentation which must be addressed. In the future, a lack of accurate and complete information could lead to unnecessary difficulties. In order to mitigate any potential adverse effects, it is therefore essential that we address this issue with a sense of urgency. I have recently obtained copies of my personal consumer credit report ( s ) and have discovered questionable and/or inadequately verified data in my file at your company 's office ( s ), as reported on my reviewed files. I am concerned that this information may have been inadvertently or intentionally re-added to my credit report profile by your company 's office ( s ) following its earlier removal from reporting, without issuing the requisite 5- day notice to me as mandated by reporting regulations that you MUST comply with.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Old information reappears or never goes away
Company: Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc. (FL)

Santander continues to illegally report on my credit a debt that they are claiming. They keep changing the account closed dates, the account number, and the amount so they can continue to report it. They have also fabricated a payment in 2016 so the reporting period would start all over. I have disputed this account both with Santander and with the credit bureaus. They then sold it to a reporting agency and had it reporting to my credit as 3 separate line items. I was able to dispute that due to the similarities. It was at that time that they added a false payment so that they could continue to report this as a bad debt on my credit reports. This debt is passed 7 years and due to their illegal reporting practices it continues to harm my personal credit files as though it is a brand new collection.
