Company: Lennar Financial Services, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX we applied for XXXX XXXX through Lennar Mortgage. We received notification on XX/XX/XXXX that we were officially approved through Lennar. On XX/XX/XXXX we gave a down payment of {$13000.00}. 

We were advised by the loan processor on XX/XX/XXXX that we were all approved by underwriting and no further actions were needed. We received a closing cost worksheet on XX/XX/XXXX which showed our cash deposit paid of {$13000.00} and a total cash required to close in the amount of {$4900.00}. 

On XX/XX/XXXX ( just 38 days away from closing ) we were contacted by Lennar bank and told that our XXXX XXXX  was denied by underwriting and that we needed to change our loan program and terms to a conventional mortgage oppose to XXXX We asked for details and explanation as to how that would affect us and we were advised that we needed a higher credit score typically. We advised that there had been no changes since our credit was pulled initially so our credit score would not have increased by XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX  We were told that the loan processor would get back to us with the new loan terms. 

We received a notice via email that the XXXX XXXX was canceled and a new Conventional loan document was ready for signing. We also received new closing statement on XX/XX/XXXX and new loan application/agreement which showed a conventional loan with a different base price for the home ( a higher amount ) and a much higher cash required to close in the amount of {$17000.00}. 

We immediately expressed our concern for the significant price difference. Particularly, the amount required to close as well as the base price of the home. We advised that we would not be signing the new loan agreement until weve had the opportunity to speak to someone about why the amounts were significantly different. 

We contacted the Lennar loan processor, the Lennar New Home Sales Consultant and the realtor and expressed our written and verbal consent. We were advised that they will be able to explain everything once all the new loan documents signed and reviewed by underwriting. After reviewing the terms of the loan, the base price of the home, the fees required and the additional XXXX XXXX to close, weve come to terms that this was not something that was agreed to when we went under contract originally. 

We expressed that we could not financially afford the new terms of this conventional loan and that we do not have the funds available to satisfy the new required cash to close. We asked several times by written email request, text messages and voicemail to have our deposit of {$13000.00} refunded back to us. 

On XX/XX/XXXX we were told by the Lennar New Sales Consultant that Lennar corporate will not release our deposit and will hold it for one year.

Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc
State: DE

Complaint narrative:
Back in XXXX XXXX XXXX I contacted Affirm to pay off a {$95.00} balance. Prior to that I experienced financial hardship and had no choice but to get back to it at a later time. Unfortunately, it ended in a charge-off. As soon as things got better for me I contacted Affirm to pay the debt and did so. Years later I have applied for their XXXX service and continuously get declined - even today XXXX XXXX XXXX. So, I then contact them via email and explain this situation and each time they continue to send me generic letters. I learned that the generic letters are not truthful. The letter states that their decision is based on XXXX credit bureau information ( who I have a XXXX score with ) - so it can't be that. Then the letters goes on to say that it's bc I applied for amount above what I could approve for. I don't know how that could be bc each time that I've applied I never selected an item with an amount attached. I just clicked the " apply for a loan '' button without an item selected. So that can't be the reason either. 

Finally, I call the XXXX number listed in the letter. I explain the above to the representative who tells me it's my status of having a charge-off- which is still in my records and can not be deleted. I ask for a supervisor who tells me the same thing. They CAN NOT DELETE a XXXX year old blemish on my account. I'd like to know if this is the factual truth. With technology the way it is now, they mean to tell me the system they use is unable to update/delete so that I can have a 2nd chance? Even credit bureaus delete from credit reports. How are they able to have such an antiquated system? So does this mean this will be in my file forever. That is totally unbelievable and I don't believe them at all. Who are they to hold a person hostage for this long and such a small amount with no way out, no room to allow for a 2nd chance? 

Thanks
