Company: Selene Holdings LLC
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
As the heir of our late mother, I am facing significant issues with the handling of her mortgage, specifically : Ongoing Sending of Confidential Mortgage Statements and Foreclosure Notices : Despite our mothers passingXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and Selene LLC continue to send confidential mortgage statements and foreclosure notices addressed both to the deceased and the heirs. This practice is not only distressing but also a breach of confidentiality. A representative has repeatedly called and spoken with Heir # 2 but refused to discuss the mortgage details, despite sending letters to Heir # 2 containing confidential information about the deceaseds mortgage. Additionally, both Heir # 1 and Heir # 2 have been contacted by the mortgage companies about the mortgage, only for the representatives to claim they can not discuss it further. 

Refusal to Facilitate a Short Sale : We, as the heirs, have tried to negotiate a short sale of the property to alleviate the financial burden, but XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and Selene LLC have refused to consider this option, adding to our financial and emotional distress. 

Misrepresentation Regarding Documents Received : I have provided XXXX XXXX XXXX Inc. and Selene LLC with our mothers will, deeds in the heirs ' names, and death certificates for both parents. However, they have repeatedly claimed not to have received these documents, causing delays and complications that have spanned at least five years, severely affecting my peace of mind. 

Foreclosure Notice and Mortgage Sale : We were informed the mortgage was entering foreclosure this XXXX, yet formal foreclosure papers only arrived this week. Furthermore, the mortgage was subsequently sold to another company without adequate notice or regard for our existing efforts to resolve this issue. We, as the heirs, have made multiple attempts to address this situation, yet the companies continue to avoid engaging with us despite the deeds being recorded in our names. Both XXXX XXXX and Selene LLC locked us out of the home and has destroyed the home with damages. Both companies have been sending statements of cutting the grass and other charges. 

We have requested the original loan documents, as the initial purchase price was {$130000.00}, while the current amount required to stop foreclosure has escalated to {$280000.00}, which raises serious legal concerns. XXXX XXXX did not share any documents concerning the matter with Selene according to their representatives. XXXX XXXX called after XXXXXXXX XXXX one night and realized that they should not be talking to said heir. We urgently need assistance in addressing the issue.

Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified accounts listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law.

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verified that these accounts are being reported correctly? Who verified these accounts? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ).

Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are willful non-complying with the FCRA.

Since you claim youve verified the accounts listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the banks directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof.

I believe you have not verified these accounts based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy. 

Please DELETE the account, or inaccurate information, from my file immediately XXXX XXXX XXXX
