Consumer complaint received 12/17/2016 about Mortgage (FHA mortgage) with RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation (FL).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: I have refinanced my mortgage and had a closing on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. My old mortgage was serviced by roundpoint mortgage servicing corp.I had a escrow account with a approximant balance of {$8000.00}. The mortgage was funded on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX .The Property taxes were due in XXXX so the new mortgage company made me pay the property taxes at closing in the amount of {$5900.00}. I contacted Roundpoint and asked them when they would be sending me my escrow money and they said they would be sending me a check for {$2000.00} that was remaining in my account in a few weeks. That was on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. I asked them about the other {$5900.00} and they said that they paid the taxes with that money. I told them that I already paid the taxes at closing and have called the XXXX county tax office to verify and was told that the only money that they received was from my closing. I have made several attempts to resolve this but I keep getting lied to by roundpoint. They told my on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX that a check was mailed to me on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX for {$2000.00}. I called again today XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and now they say that it was only processed on XXXX and it was mailed on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. They also said that they do n't know were the rest of my money is and they are investigating it and should have an answer for me by XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. That is {$5900.00}, I told them that if I took that long to make my mortgage payment I would be in foreclosure. I still have not received any money from roundpoint.

Consumer complaint received 07/31/2015 about Credit reporting () with Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NY).
Issue: Incorrect information on credit report
Sub-issue: Account status

Complaint: We advised the credit bureaus that XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX furnished them with incomplete and inaccurate information. Review the attached documentation which was sent to each of the aforementioned banks. They detail inaccurate information we were given at he time of hurricane XXXX. The incorrect information was relied upon to make financial decisions we would not have otherwise made. We wrote to each individual bank and have escalated it to the highest level and have filed complaints with the Consumer Protection Agency. We have also filed complaints on-line and made telephone calls directly to each of the credit bureaus. We stated that the information reported by the banks was inaccurate inasmuch as it does not reflect the entire circumstances of events fairly. IT DOES N'T TELL THE WHOLE STORY. This is a violation of our rights under the, " fair credit reporting act. '' During hurricane XXXX both XXXX and XXXX XXXX verbally authorized via the customer service department a Disaster Relief program and/or moratorium of mortgage payments. At that time, neither bank fully disclosed how the waived payments would be repaid. We were told by both institutions that the missed payments would be added to the end of the loan. Both institutions told us after we had already taken part in the moratorium of mortgage payments that they must be paid in full at he end of the waived period. XXXX involvement is limited to having bought the loan from XXXX and has continued to report us late to the credit bureaus. However, since XXXX took over our loan in XXXX 2014 we have not missed or been late with a mortgage payment. Furthermore, if you research the history of loans with XXXX and XXXX XXXX, you will find that we have never been late or missed a payment and we are not in any foreclosure proceedings. However, the past reporting which still remains on our credit report has caused irreparable damage to our credit scores, my employment and our quality of life in general.

Consumer complaint received 01/21/2017 about Student loan (Federal student loan servicing) with Navient Solutions, LLC. (NC).
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are handled

Complaint: I recieved a bill that stated i was past due and I owed {$550.00} and that I was past due. This is almost {$200.00} more than my monthly payment. When I call I have to wait on hold for at least 20 minutes. Then when I talked to the lady she said no, I owed {$340.00}. She could not explain why I owed that much. Then she told me that XX/XX/XXXX my payment is going up. I am on Income Based payment plan and am not up for my application until XX/XX/XXXX. The lady claimed that I must have been informed that my payment was going up. I said no I was not and that I have been paying the same amount for months. I then asked to speak to a supervisor. After waiting 30 minutes, one was still not available. She told me they would do " research '' then call me back. I said no that I did not want to default because apparently my payment is already late. She told me they would n't report it to the credit bureau until I was 90 days late. I would not accept this. I told her I would look at my payment history and call back. I called back 30 minutes after and got a new lady. She said no, my account is not late and in fact it is up today. However, she also told me that they are missing one payment of {$200.00}. This {$200.00} was taken out of my bank account nearly 3 weeks prior but they claim they never got it. She told me I had to take it up with my bank. Again, I demanded they give me some sort of resolution to the problem. She told me I had to print off my bank statement and mail it in for them to " research. '' Meanwhile, {$200.00} is missing!! 

Also, I have tried to set up my auto payment out of my account for more than the minimum that I have to pay. They have told me that is not possible, they ca n't draft more money out of my account than the minimum balance. I find this very hard to believe.

Consumer complaint received 07/17/2015 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with 21ST MORTGAGE CORP. (MD).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: I am a short sale negotiator negotiating a short sale. A short sale is when a property is worth less on the market than is owed ( i.e : home is worth $ XXXX and Seller owes $ XXXX ) and the seller is going through financial hardship. The bank will approve to waive the deficiency if the seller can present a buyer. 

My seller owes XXXX to her XXXX mortgage, XXXX and XXXX to her XXXX mortgage, 21st Mortgage. The house is work XXXX. She is behind on payments for almost a year and is well in the foreclosure proceedings. XXXX has just approved the HAFA short sale ( government program ) for XXXX to the buyer we are under contract with now and is giving the MAX amount that the XXXX mortgage is allowed to receive by HAFA regulations : {$8500.00}, which is much more than the general rule of thumb where they receive 6-10 % ( I have never seen a payoff to the XXXX reflecting more than the 10 % ) of the remaining balance ( XXXX-XXXX ). 

21st Mortgage is REFUSING the {$8500.00} and is saying they will not approve short sale unless they receive the XXXX, which XXXX CANT even give, even if they wanted to. The seller is not legally able to give the XXXX ( even if she had it ) because the whole reason a short sale is approved is because she does n't have funds to give to the XXXX mortgage. 

21st Mortgage would RATHER have the Seller go into foreclosure and receive {$0.00} ( all proceeds would go to XXXX NOT 21st Mortgage because the amount owed is much more than the property is worth ) than {$8500.00}. Keep in mind XXXX ca n't even give them the insane amount of funds they are asking for.

Consumer complaint received 02/15/2016 about Credit reporting () with EQUIFAX, INC. (VA).
Issue: Unable to get credit report/credit score
Sub-issue: Problem getting report or credit score

Complaint: My issue is about the XXXX point reduction in my credit score in less than 60 days with no logical or tangible explanation about how my score can drop by XXXX points when there have been no significant changes to my record. There is no suitable option in the CFPB drop down listing of options for making this type of complaint and the matter of credit score which is so central to the access to jobs, insurance, housing, etc. by a consumer 's is not very transparent. On XXXX XXXX, 2015, my credit score with Equifax was XXXX and as of today, it is XXXX and XXXX points lower. There have been no new accounts added to my portfolio of accounts and in fact, I have paid off a couple of accounts ; XXXX delinquencies have dropped off and any other delinquency ( except for a new one with XXXX XXXX which is being disputed ) was only account in XXXX. Equifax needs to explain specifically what has changed in 60 days to result in a XXXX point drop and I have had no additional inquiries. What I have observed over the years, is that during the period when I am paying {$19.00} to any of the credit reporting agencies, my score goes up and soon after I discontinue the monitoring service, there is a reduction in my score. This almost gives the perception that consumers are somewhat arbitrarily being penalized when they discontinue the service especially since I have never been able to get an explanation about the reduction in my score. The credit scoring process is like a blackhole and the high level explanation about the percentage composition of deriving the score is simply not good enough. In my case, given the very short duration, Equifax should be able to provide me with the specific changes that amounted to a XXXX point reduction in my score since XXXX XXXX.

Consumer complaint received 09/27/2016 about Credit card () with AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (FL).
Issue: Balance transfer

Complaint: XX/XX/XXXX, I applied for a balance transfer with American Express. I opened a new card, an American Express Blue card and transferred the balance. It was a no interest if paid within 15 months balance. They charged a fee, which is common. What is not common is that they are charging me interest on the fee every month. I 've transferred balances to other companies many times in the past and they never charge interest for their fees or the transfer until the stated time period is up ( 12 months, 15 months, 18 months ). I contacted American Express about this last month and they said that I should just send them a check for the fee and that would stop the interest. I explained that it was n't possible to do that because they would n't apply the money to the only the fee. 
I 'm not sure if this is illegal because they did say no interest for 15 months, but it should be illegal and I wanted to report it just in case. As soon as I can pay this off or my 15 months is up, I am closing this account and not working with American Express again. 
thanks XXXX
