Issue: Credit monitoring or identity theft protection services — Billing dispute for services

Hi, I had tried setting up Auto-pay for our mortgage account ( Loan # XXXX ) back in XX/XX/XXXX with our lender XXXX XXXX  shortly after we came out of our forbearance period. 

Unfortunately, the auto-pay request never fully finalized through their portal, and the lender did not automatically draft XXXXXXXX XXXX mortgage payment. 

Our payment ( s ) were never drafted automatically which I was not aware of, and I am now told XXXX XXXX  reported a 30 day late payment for the month of XXXX to the credit bureau 's without notifying us by phone, e-mail, or mail in advance. The lender sent a notice, but the mailing notice had XXXX addresses listed ( my old address in New York and my current address in South Carolina ), which would not have been properly delivered by USPS. I spoke with a representative from XXXX XXXX  who also confirmed via telephone that the mailing address on the notice was incorrectly labeled and would not have been delivered properly therefore in which we were not notified our account was past due. I only realized our account was past due when I received XXXXXXXX XXXX statement in the mail and I noticed our balance had a carry over from the month before. 

I would like to officially dispute and reverse the 30 day delinquent reporting for the month of XXXX on this account. We've never been late with making a payment to XXXX XXXX  since we've owned the property in XXXX, and this is XXXX of XXXX other loans we currently have where we have never been late or missed a payment with any of our lenders. 

Please let me know what we can do to resolve this matter so our credit is not negatively impacted. 

I appreciate your attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

This is being filed as the company failed to adequately respond to the XXXX complaint regarding medical debt. 
The company is outside the law when it comes to reporting medical debt. They are not allowed to report medical debt until it is at least 365 days past due The provider of the loan is irrelevant as to the definition of medical debt The legal definition of medical debt is debt that arose from the receipt of medical services, products or devices. See attachments Debt that arose from the receipt of medical services can not be reported until its at least 365 days past due.

On  XXXX / XXXX /   17  I was approved and given a loan in the amount of {$700.00} with the understanding that the pay off amount would " not be much more than {$700.00} '' The answers I received were very vague and misleading. Come to find out the actual pay off for the {$700.00} was well over {$2000.00}. Once I realized I attempted to return the {$700.00} they 'd already transferred to my account but they denied my request saying I would need to pay the finance fees and give them {$910.00}. This was the next day  XXXX / XXXX / 17 . I feel as if though this is not just as I did not realize what I was agreeing to and attempted to correct the mistake the next day but they would not allow it. I attempted to find a copy of the loan agreement to add to this complaint but I have zero access to any agreement via their website

I've written to these companies before regarding this matter. They are reporting inaccurate information on my consumer report, and they refused to remove/delete names and addresses on my consumer report. That doesn't match my name and address on my driver 's license showing my exact name and address. This is the only name and address format I want showing on my consumer report every other name and address that's not the name and address on my driver 's license is not my name and address delete them immediately. There should only be one name and one address. Furthermore, you are furnishing outdated and irrelevant names and addresses. On the premises that the consumer report is supposed to be accurate and relevant, 15 USC 1681 B speaks about the relevancy of information on a consumer report and the obligation you have to report accurate information and you are reporting inaccurate, irreverent, and outdated information on my consumer report you have single-handedly caused damage to my reputation, my character, and my mode of living. This information needs to be immediately removed/deleted and properly updated.

I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the handling of my previous requests to remove fraudulent items from my credit report. Despite multiple attempts, these fraudulent entries persist, causing significant distress and potential harm to my financial reputation. 

I have diligently followed the procedures outlined by your agency to dispute inaccurate information. However, despite providing ample evidence of the fraudulent nature of these items, they continue to appear on my credit report. 

These inaccuracies have serious consequences for my financial well-being, affecting my ability to secure credit and impacting my overall creditworthiness. Furthermore, the persistence of these fraudulent entries reflects poorly on the credibility and reliability of your agency 's reporting processes. 

I urge you to take immediate action to rectify this matter by thoroughly investigating each disputed item and promptly removing any fraudulent entries from my credit report. I expect a timely response acknowledging the receipt of this complaint and outlining the steps that will be taken to address these issues. 

Please understand the urgency of this matter and the importance of restoring the accuracy and integrity of my credit report. Failure to resolve this issue satisfactorily will leave me with no choice but to seek legal recourse to protect my rights and interests. With this, I am asking for your assisstance to remove these fraud items in my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: MOHELA (OH)

I was placed on administrative forbearance by my servicer XX/XX/2023, but they didnt alert me until XX/XX/XXXX, after Id already made a payment ( Ive requested a refund but have yet to hear back ). I was placed on forbearance through XX/XX/2023, but my account home page has an alert saying my payments wont be due until after XX/XX/2023 because they are still working on updating my account. Despite this, I received a bill today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) thats due mid XXXX that says I am past due {$790.00} dollars. 

Further, they only counted 1 out of 8 of my certified months of employment for PSLF. I have yet to see that be corrected after months of waiting after I complained. 

The wait time is hours every time you call, and different people have told me wildly different things. 

My monthly payment has gone from XXXX to XXXX to XXXX to XXXX, all throughout this forbearance period. I dont know what information to trust. The communication issues have been astounding.
