Company: GATEWAY FIRST BANK
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
Amended complaint re : XXXX Escrow analysis for Gateway Mortgage Acct no. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ; complaint id : XXXX According to Gateway Mortgage 's records, and mine, my property taxes have not gone up from XXXX to XXXX ( see attached ) and property taxes for XXXX have not yet been issued. 

Gateway 's own records indicate that in XX/XX/XXXX, it made an escrow disbursement on my behalf for my homeowner 's insurance in the amount of {$2700.00}. Their records also indicate that in XX/XX/XXXX, Gateway will make a disbursement to XXXX XXXX ( again for my homeowner 's insurance ) for the exact same amount. If that's true, there is no increase in my homeowner 's insurance. Thus, there is no basis for a " shortage payment '' of $ XXXX. At the very least, they have not shown where the increase is coming from. 

Also, I do believe I have a new provider for hazard insurance. Who is that? I dont think it is still XXXX XXXX as they indicated. Did they pay the wrong insurance provider? 

Also, their escrow analysis indicates that I have to pay an increased " escrow payment '' of {$54.00} per month. Why? I can not find an explanation for this and none has been provided to me. 

If I have a total increase of $ XXXX. That's a total increase of {$1300.00} for the year. Yet, Gateway claims that I have an " escrow shortage '' and that if this shortage is spread out for the year it equals to a total yearly shortage of {$700.00} ( and not {$1300.00} ). That makes no sense. 

Further, Gateway 's records of my " escrow account history '' indicates that from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, they projected that I would pay only {$4700.00}. However, their records also indicate that for this same period, I actually paid Gateway {$6200.00} ( meaning I paid {$1500.00} more than what the company projected. So, if anything I should have a surplus. 

Finally, instead of receiving any correspondence or even a phone call explaining the purported shortage I owe, I received a notice indicating that Gateway has charged me a {$78.00} " accrued late charge. '' See attached. This screams unfair business practices in my opinion and I believe that if someone at Gateway would simply call me, this could be sorted out.
