From : XXXX XXXX To : " XXXX XXXX '' Cc : " XXXX XXXX '' Subject : RE : Your Carrington Account Loan Number XXXX Date : Monday, XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Thank you for working directly with my lawyer XXXX XXXX XXXX to correct the issue related to our mortgage. 
As you can imagine, recovering our credit is extremely important. As we discussed on the phone last month, it is my feeling that Carrington may be reporting negative payment information regarding our mortgage. 
I have noticed a decline in our score that is being reported to us through XXXX. I have already used the free credit report option this year and have ordered ( paid for ) several reports and do not want to pay again to check on what Carrington is reporting. You had mentioned to me that it is very easy to check on this and to correct IMMEDIATELY if Carrington is reporting negatively. 
I respectfully request you follow through with undoing and preventing and negative reporting. 
As Carrington has found researching this issue, Carrington has made errors in processing our mortgage and is working to rectify with our attorney. 
We look forward to the resolution and again stress the dire need to rectify any negative credit reporting that has occurred, and enforce a stop order on any future negative reporting during this resolution process. 
Respectfully, XXXX XXXX From : XXXX XXXX [ mailto :  XXXX ] Sent : Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX To : XXXX Subject : Your Carrington Account Hello, Here is the email as promised with my contact info.

We do work on the phones so you will probably get my voicemail but if you leave a message I will call right back. I am also responsive by email. 
XXXX XXXX | SSD Specialist Carrington Mortgage Services , LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX | XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX Office : ( XXXX ) XXXX x XXXX | Fax ( XXXX ) XXXX | www.carringtonms.com Carrington Reported to the CFPB Carringtons failure to adjust the mortgage loan interest rate under the loan agreement at the time the adjustment was due, and delaying 6 months to make the adjustment, forced the loan into a non-compliant situation for Carrington and XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX. 
As discussed with XXXX XXXX by phone, the adjusted payment amount was deemed to be incorrect and unsustainable to be a legal and binding payment to be applied to the mortgage loan, and Carrington could not legally require such payment. XXXX XXXX consulted with Carrington leadership to determine that a loan modification would be required ( XX/XX/XXXX ). 
XXXX XXXX was instructed to continue to pay the last known legally acceptable payment under the existing mortgage loan agreement during the loan modification process ( XX/XX/XXXX ). 
Without explanation and months of documents being supplied to Carrington, Carrington cancelled the loan modification (XX/XX/XXXX ). 
Under legal advice of attorney XXXX XXXX, a formal complaint was filed with the CFPB in XX/XX/XXXX under Case number : XXXX. 

Carrington Agrees to Process Loan Modification Carrington processed the loan modification to completion on XX/XX/XXXX, over 1 year after the process began due to a Carrington mortgage loan processing error.
