Complaint narrative:
What happened... 

My loan company inadvertently disbursed {$5200.00} for taxes on XX/XX/XXXX, even though the parcel is exempt ; they said their tax vendor had the incorrect parcel number on file. As a result, an escrow account was placed on my account. From XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, after calling them 13 times to solve this issue and filed a complain at CA DFP, they finally sent me a letter saying the escrow account has been closed and they have confirmed the refund with the tax vendor in the amount of {$5200.00} was in process. 

They even enclosed for copies of the escrow closing notice too After all this happened, on XX/XX/XXXX, they sent me a statement, it shows, the escrow account is still opened, and my new escrow payment is {$470.00} Please help me. I really had enough of this. 

We want the escrow account to be CLOSED!!! Non escrow on my mortgage Please. 
And I want them to send me the check for the rest of the Balance left on the escrow account.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Request for Reinvestigation and Detailed Description of Verification Methods Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding the handling of my credit report dispute by credit agency. Despite my efforts to resolve inaccuracies on my credit report, I have encountered several issues that I believe warrant further investigation by the CFPB. 
Background : On [ XX/XX/year> ], I submitted a dispute to regarding inaccurate information on my credit report. The items in question were not properly verified, yet the agency concluded that the information was accurate. I am concerned about the thoroughness and accuracy of their reinvestigation process. 
Details of the Complaint : 1. Inadequate Verification Process : Despite my detailed dispute, the credit reporting agency failed to verify the accuracy of the disputed information adequately. The verification process seems to lack transparency and thoroughness, which raises concerns about its compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 
2. Lack of Detailed Verification Methods : I requested a detailed description of the verification methods used by the credit reporting agency, including the specific procedures, sources consulted, documentation reviewed, and criteria for validation. However, this information has not been provided, despite multiple requests. 
3. Timeline of Investigation : There is a lack of clarity on the timeline of the investigation, including key dates and actions taken during the process. This lack of transparency hinders my ability to understand how the investigation was conducted and whether it adhered to FCRA requirements.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I previously sent a letter to address the errors and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received a response even after 30 days. It seems like my disputes are being overlooked and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since the deadline has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated without delay. If not, I may have to take legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was impacted by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
To this day, I am still waiting to receive verifiable proof that these items are accurate. I feel like I'm being abused and being ignored for my disputes. FCRA Section 611 ( a ), clearly states that you must investigate and provide who provided the information in dispute, including all relevant information regarding the dispute received by the agency. I am requesting these items be immediately removed from my credit report. As no proof has been provided, they report unverifiable, invalidated, inaccurate, and questionable items in my report. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately, or I will file for litigation due to the XXXX  you have caused me. The XXXX data breach also impacted my information and may have gotten into the wrong person 's hands. Thank you for your time in this matter.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue with the application process
Company: AmeriHome Mortgage Company, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Communications to AmeriHome were initiated by us, the mortgagors, for the purpose of merging/replatting two adjacent lots into a single lot. Both lots are owned by us. We were advised via XXXX XXXX ( AmeriHome underwriter ) that to proceed, we must complete numerous requests and provide specific documentation detailed in a " Lein Release Requirements '' document, which was provided to us. After providing each requisite document and multiple attempts to contact XXXX, dating from early XXXX through the middle of XXXX, XXXX XXXX called myself on XX/XX/2024 to explain she could not proceed with my request because " She does not know what I want, nor how to support this request. '' After speaking with XXXX XXXX briefly, I requested that she please call me back at a more appropriate time, at this point refusing to do so. After pleading with XXXX XXXX for additional time to gain further clarity of her requirements, she again refused to provide any more information, stated she did not understand Texass requirements and encouraged me to contact my county/city for further guidance. 

After contacting our county immediately following this conversation, I was informed that apart from the process I have already initiated with our county to replat both properties, our county is a separate entity and has nothing to do with the process of modifying a mortgage, nor do they have anything to this process in any capacity whatsoever. 

Detailed in the complaint " AmeriHome CFPB Complaint '' document, you can see that request after request has been overlooked, pushed to the side and/or completely ignored via XXXX XXXX XXXX AmeriHome. As of XX/XX/2024, AmeriHome Servicing intends to transfer ownership of our loan to another servicing company, effective XX/XX/2024. I believe the lack of correspondence is directly tied to this fact. If servicing does indeed transfer to a separate entity, the thousands of dollars, countless hours and 4 months spent attempting to move this process process forward and at the behest of AmeriHome Servicing, specifically XXXX XXXX could be for nothing, and all efforts will need to be repeated with the new servicer. 

Of great importance to us, the mortgagors, is the money spent on appraisals for both properties, surveys, border delineations, etc. will need to be duplicated for the new servicer.
