Company: CARRINGTON MORTGAGE SERVICES, LLC (MO)

I have been making payments to Carrington Mortgage Services for 2 years. My home has recently been foreclosed and sold, without my knowledge, and without my being allowed to rectify whatever problems thay are claiming there are with my payments. I received a form recently in the mail saying that my loan was in foreclosure, and when I called the company, I was informed that the house had already been sold to to their sister company! I also just received a check from them refunding my last few months of mortgage payments. THIS CA N'T BE LEGAL! I NEED HELP! I have called lawyers, bankers, judges, and everyone that I can think of in hopes that someone can help, but no one seems to be sure what recourse I have against these people other than trying to buy my mortgage back? Again, please help. I am a single mother of XXXX who works nights as a XXXX and this house is the only equity that I have. If it is stolen from me, I will have nothing to show for a decade of mortgage payments on a house that I personally designed and built. This company appears to have the legal authority to do what they have done, but I have not been informed why or how they have foreclosed.

Should you fail to provide such evidence, I insist on the immediate removal of these items from my report.

I reject your decision to decline my identity theft claim. What gives you the authority to decide if I've been a victim? You do not possess the legal standing or any right to make such a determination. If you continue to deny my claim, I will enlist the assistance of my attorney to seek a legal resolution. It's crucial to emphasize that my identity theft claim fully adheres to the law. I have submitted an official report to a federal agency as dictated by legal procedures. Let 's collaborate to resolve this issue within the stipulated 5-day timeframe. 

How can it be that your bureau dares to dismiss my legitimate claim? Who are you to sit in judgment, claiming to know better than I whether I have been a victim of identity theft? Your refusal is not only maddening but an affront to decency and fairness. I was the victim & I'm not sure why the CRA is not complying with the law. The other bureaus have followed suit. Im very confused why this one seems to ignore my requests. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I want to make it unequivocally clear that I am not about to let this gross miscarriage of justice stand. If you persist in denying my rightful claim, be prepared to face the consequences. I will not hesitate to engage my attorney and pursue a legal remedy to rectify this outrageous situation.

I insist that you recognize that my identity theft claim has been meticulously processed in strict accordance with the letter of the law. I have diligently submitted an official report to a federal agency, as required by the legal procedures governing such matters. There is no room for ambiguity here.

Thank you for assisting me in this matter. I would have chosen not to write this complaint and got the CFPB involved if I had other options, but unfortunately here we are. 
My issue stems with XXXX XXXX for XXXX separate accounts : XXXX ( balance {$260000.00} ) XXXX ( balance {$100000.00} ) I went online in XXXX of 2023 to make a payment for both of these accounts and there system was down to site maintenance. I called in the following Monday where a support representative alerted me of site maintenance and I made my payment. Unbeknownst to me, I ended up receiving a late payment with XXXX for XXXX of 2023 for both accounts. This has had a significantly negative affect on my Credit Score and prevented me from doing much as I am no shackled. Normally I am not one to complain, however, this is unjust and inaccurate. According to the FCRA and FCBA, this information should be corrected and removed from my report. 
I have attempted to dispute these late payments several time to no real avail : XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 XX/XX/2023 and XX/XX/2023 I decided to be more proactive and attempt to give them the benefit of the doubt and called XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2023. I alerted them that I had disputed the late payments on my credit report form them because they are inaccurate due to their site being down for maintenance. The support representative agreed that that was the case and made notes in my file and stated that they would correct it. I asked if I should dispute the late payments with the Credit bureaus again and they stated it wasn't necessary but I could if I wanted to. 

We are not 3 months past this conversation, several attempts at rectifying this with the bureaus and my Credit still being affected by their blatant mistake. This has caused extreme mental anguish as I am not capable at borrowing at the rates I deserve, rather what XXXX XXXX error states I deserve. 

I wanted to shine a light on these practices hoping that I can get these late payments removed because the error is not on me, yet on them.
