Company: CARDINAL FINANCIAL COMPANY, LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
This is my 2nd complaint about our loan servicer. We received a XXXX XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXX so I contacted cardinal, they transferred me to loss mitigation and the rep advised me to allow 30-45 days. A mere HOURS later I get an email stating our case is closed so we call and they tell us that we were denied due to government entity ineligible, but no one could tell us what that means. After several holds and conflicting information in our account notes, the rep comes back to tell us that our only options are short sale, deed in lieu or reinstating by making an over XXXX XXXXXXXX balloon payment. This is the second time in weeks that after I call, were denied. She also said because we didnt appeal after the XX/XX/XXXX letter that we were told to disregard because it was an error, that we can no longer appeal either. AND SHE READ THE NOTES INDICATING THAT TO XXXX! But now its our fault. We only restarted this process because after the 2nd trial payment of our mod that we NEVER received paperwork for, even after 20+ calls probably, we were told we had to reapply because our documents expired. Now they refused to help us. We were in Covid forbearance and have been doing everything in our power just to get that deferred to the end, like we were originally told would happen but they are now refusing to offer any assistance and state we dont have the income but we are still making our payments! Cardinal financialXXXX is failing us!

Complaint narrative:
The three credit reporting bureaus ( EquifaxXXXX XXXX  and XXXX  ) require me to mail highly personal documents such as a copy of a Social Security card, birth certificate, and driver 's license in order to place a freeze on my daughter 's credit reports. I can place a freeze online for myself, but for some reason they make it more difficult and significantly less secure for me to do it for her. I'm worried about something happening to the documents as they cross the country. It's very insecure to have to mail these documents. I thought they were required to allow me to do it by phone or online. Is this not the case?
