Consumer complaint received 2022-12-23
Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: FIRST HORIZON BANK (NC)

I have a home mortgage with First Horizon Bank. I received an Escrow Analysis from them dated XX/XX/XXXX informing me that I have an escrow shortage of {$7400.00} which would cause my monthly payment to increase effective XX/XX/XXXX. I promptly mailed them a check for the shortage amount plus an additional {$650.00} because I knew they would be paying for an additional insurance policy premium of that amount. They posted my check in the amount of {$8000.00} to my escrow account. In that I had fully funded the escrow shortage, I expected my monthly payment to remain the same. 

However, on XX/XX/XXXX they took from my checking account the increased payment amount of {$3600.00} rather than the previous monthly amount of {$3100.00}. And they have continued to take from my checking account the increased amount of {$3600.00} each month thereafter. 

I have called their customer service number of XXXX at least twice in XXXX and XXXX trying to get this matter resolved. I was told that this was their error and it would be corrected promptly. On each occasion they have failed to make good on their promise and they continue to take an additional {$550.00} from my bank account each month and place it in my escrow account.

Company: The Law Offices of Kenosian & Miele, LLP (CA)

Good day! 

I received a letter 2 days ago about a debt collection from a law firm name " KENOSIAN & MIELE, LLP '' saying I owed {$8800.00} from their client XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. From the letter its saying Original Creditor is with XXXX XXXX. 

They are asking me to call them within 10 days to settle the balance that I do not owed otherwise they will be forced to send me a court order or legal action. 

First of all, I never had an account with XXXX XXXX. 
Second, The letter doesnt look legit, its just a piece of paper without any seal or anything on it. So Im thinking it could be a scam or phishing. 

I attached the letter on this report for your reference. 

Please help me report this and figure out whats the best action towards.
