Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding unauthorized accounts appearing on my credit report. Despite my repeated attempts to have these accounts removed, they persist, causing significant damage to my financial reputation and well-being. The accounts in question are in clear violation of 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes. It is evident that the credit bureaus have no permissible purpose to report these fraudulent items without my explicit consent. Please see attached file for these items I am complaining.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Mr. Cooper sold my loan to XXXX on XX/XX/year>. XXXXXXXX XXXX officially took over the loan XX/XX/year>. During the transfer period, Mr Cooper declared that I missed my XXXX ( XX/XX/year> ) mortgage payment ( even though they have record of my payment ) because they increased the amount due in escrow, and my automatic payment was for a lesser total amount. 

During the XXXX transfer of my loan, I was not able to pay Mr Cooper the amount owed to escrow to supplement my XXXX payment. I also did not have an ability to pay XXXX as they had not set up my loan yet, it was still pending ( XX/XX/year> ). I was not told when the transfer to XXXX would complete. I was told not to do anything about this supplemental escrow amount by the customer service reps at Mr Cooper as they said it would all work itself out in the transfer process and that it would not affect my credit. 

I wish to dispute this claim that I missed my XXXX payment, as I have record it was paid but not applied, and I had no mechanism to supplement the additional escrow. I can not dispute this claim however. 

When I call all of the phone numbers listed online for Mr Cooper customer service, I get the same automated recording that asks me to give either my SSN or my Loan #, both of which result with the same response : " Your loan has been transferred to another lender, contact them. Goodbye. '' I can not get anyone on the phone to dispute this charge. I believe I, as a previous client of this lender, should be able to speak to someone to clarify this issue. I believe they are acting in bad faith with their lack of response to me to clarify a nuanced issue and the result is adversely affecting my credit report with lending agencies.
