Consumer complaint received 2023-08-27
Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Private mortgage insurance (PMI)
Company: BSI Financial Holdings, Inc. (OR)

In XXXX of this year, our mortgage payment brought our mortgage balance below the 78 % LTV ratio of the original appraisal amount that our mortgage servicer lists in their contract and on their website as the point at which PMI will be automatically cancelled for all loans in good standing. I called earlier in the year to confirm the amount the loan needed to reach and that this was an automatic process. In XXXX, however I noticed the servicer was still deducting the PMI fee from our escrow. I called and emailed via their secure message portal to let them know this was still happening and to remove the PMI. One month later the fee was deducted yet again. I again called and they told me I must email a scanned copy of hand signed letter with my request, despite it being publicly noted that the PMI removal was an automatic process. I was irritated but complied, and received no response. In XXXX, the PMI insurance was yet again deducted from my escrow. At this point, I do not know how to have this stop. I have tried no less than 5 times to have this monthly fee removed for something that is supposed to be automatic. I fear reducing my monthly payment by the amount I should no longer be paying as I suspect they will say I am in default. Please help!

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: HEARTLAND PAYMENT SYSTEMS INC (CA)

XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX do not provide adequate communication and information regarding loan payments.

I was making payments -- never missed any -- to XXXX  when the service switched to XXXX XXXX. I've received exactly one email regarding the switch but had reasonable basis to doubt the legitimacy of the email because I visited XXXX and saw that the website now belongs to XXXX, and the content of the website mentioned absolutely nothing about XXXX XXXX. Therefore, I did not want to provide personal information to XXXX XXXX at the time due to this lack of conviction.

I did not know what happened to XXXX, and could not make payments because my auto payments were completely stopped. Hence the start of delinquent payments. I do not believe that the responsibility of this delinquency falls completely upon myself, but rather on XXXX XXXX  and former XXXX  as well due to little or no communication.

XXXX XXXX or former XXXX, did not handle communication properly by informing payees to change address, or at least email/call them to notify of delinquent payments. I live and rent at another address and was not given any opportunity to update my address. I would do so if I knew XXXX XXXX  does not offer paperless communication. I finally received a physical statement of my balance due ( in horror ) when I return to my home address that I do not visit frequently. If XXXX XXXX XXXX goal is to collect payment, why hasn't it expanded the scope of communication to its payees? Unless this is an intentional and unethical tactic employed by the business to collect more on fees and interest of delinquent amounts.

I will take responsibility on my part that I have not reached out to see why my payment to XXXX  have stopped. Therefore, when I receive the delinquent notice, I accept to pay the full amount which include late fees.

When I tried logging into XXXX XXXX, I could not click on " Make a Payment. '' The button was grayed out and when I tried using Guest Payment, it kept saying my account number is valid when I have confirmed it to be correct many times. At this point, I feel that XXXX XXXX is making it difficult for its members to make any payment, and therefore even prolong the delinquency.

And that is why I am filing the complaint now. I have no problem using XXXX XXXX, never have missed a payment there, and can prove that this delinquency is not intentional with my strong credit score.

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

I am a victim of identity theft as of XX/XX/XXXX which Equifax is fully aware of as i've MAILED in several documents proving this. I have filed several complaints on Equifax after speaking with them several times over the phone. Just today, I spoke with a representative in the Consumer/Fraud departments regarding a bankruptcy showing on my credit report that does not belong to me. I have disputed this charged well over 2 months ago and today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) the dispute is still open/pending. After speaking with the rep over the phone, he stated that they ARE allowed to keep a dispute going for as long as they prefer if they do not hear from the company. The rep confirmed they received no response back from this investigation and have failed to remove this from my credit reports. which has affected my ability to obtain credit and/or apply for mortgage. Equifax is not honoring the following statement and has this account under the wrong credit profile. 

" Under Section 612 ( a ) ( 3 ) of the FCRa, Equifax is given 45 days to complete an investigation on disputes made after a consumer receives their annual free credit file ''.
