To whom it may concern, today is XX/XX/XXXX. Yesterday I received a dispute response from XXXX which really has me baffled and concerned about my credit report and how to keep it fit for the economy and country that I live in, the United States of America. 
In XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX added a delinquent mortgage account to my credit report. An account for a home that my ex-spouse resides. In the last two months the other two reporting agencies have added the default mortgage as well. My ex asked for the home in our divorce ( XXXX ) and was granted the home in writing by the judge of our divorce proceeding. He did not have my name removed or made any other attempts to show that he no longer wanted me to have a part of the home. He faulted on the VA loan and hasn't made any payments on the loan in almost four years. 

XX/XX/XXXX, he filed bankruptcy, which means he isn't responsible for payments, and can not be solicited for the payments, but I am. He lives in the home with his family, not me. I spoke to the newest mortgage company, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, and asked them to foreclose the home or put it on the market for sale if I am the new responsible party because they will not adhere to the decree. The did not, and they also denied his paperwork for a modification for the loan and so did XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, the original owners. The first choice for them is to wait on me to make a payment and for him to live in the home for free. I will not pay a mortgage for a home that I do not reside. XXXX attempted to insert me into his loan modification in XXXX but he told me not to worry about it. I learned that I was to sign a quick deed, which did not alleviate me of financial responsibility anyway. All in all, it would've gotten payments made if they had accepted his paperwork. I am not sure the specifics to that issue. 

Then I am told that the rules for foreclosure have to be met per the state 's requirements. Well how many rules and laws does it take to understand that the house is not free and the mortgage is due? Virginia needs to get it together. These mortgage companies who are not listening to what is being said should also get it together. 

The home was purchased in XXXX and costs more now than it did when it was purchased, he is currently {$140000.00} in arrears. That's about a fourth of the cost of the home.. If you can live for free then there is no incentive to pay the mortgage! At the same time, permission is not needed to make a payment. He could have been making payments all this time with or without a modification. Its not like the mortgage company will return the checks, or will they? 

I am writing to ask that XXXX XXXX remove this home from my credit report, all three, and give him a payment plan for the mortgage or foreclose/sale the home immediately. XXXX should also place a valid phone number on the credit reports.I would also like the credit reporting agencies to delete " remove per divorce decree '' as an option for a dispute if the decree is not sufficient or will not be upheld once provided.
