Complaint narrative:
After reviewing a copy of my personal credit report, I have come across a few inconsistencies. I understand that mistakes may happen, but these types of mistakes are severely damaging to my chances of owning a home. I have researched the dispute process and I am aware that you must complete your investigation within a thirty day time frame. Please take the time and consideration to remove the late dates and negative remarks from my credit report. With our economy struggling the way that it is, I can not afford to have inaccurate information negatively affecting my credit score. I will await an updated copy of my credit report to reflect these changes within thirty ( 30 ) days. Im never been late on my payments. Those payments were made on time. I am requesting that the late payment markings be updated to reflect my accurate payment history. I want the late dates to be removed. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Paying off the loan
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Our principal balance on this loan was down to just {$340.00}, so I sent our regular payment of {$650.00} on XX/XX/2023. They SENT BACK our payment in two separate checks by the end of XXXX! We have been disputing their claim of {$1900.00} in fees owed since XXXX of this year, and so far, they've only sent proof of 14 total late fees, which amounted to {$290.00}. Therefore, the {$650.00} we sent on XX/XX/XXXX should have paid off the loan completely! Instead, they sent back our money and kept saying we were late on our statements- and would not accept our monthly payments in XXXX, XXXX, or XXXX! Now, they have DESTROYED our credit by reporting us 30, 60, and 90 days late ; and if that wasn't diabolical and evil enough, they're also threatening to FORECLOSE on a house that we've paid faithfully on for 20 YEARS, and only owe {$340.00} on in principle!! It's unfathomable and downright dirty. They haven't produced PROOF that we owe {$1700.00} in fees ( because we don't ) or {$200.00} for a home inspection, and therefore, those fees should be waived. We have requested that proof IN WRITING for ELEVEN MONTHS, and requested those unsubstantiated fees be waived for ELEVEN MONTHS after they could NOT provide proof that we owe them. 
We TRIED AGAIN to make our payment in XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, both online and over the phone, but they wouldn't accept our payment. I called MULTIPLE TIMES to try to get this resolved, but their " customer service '' people were always extremely RUDE and CONDESCENDING, and gave me NO OPTIONS, except to pay {$2700.00}, when we only owe {$650.00}! In the meantime, they keep adding late fees and interest, and now the unscrupulous company says we owe {$2800.00}, plus interest until the day we pay it off. Even if we did agree with the astronomical late fees, which we DON'T, we should have been able to pay our REGULAR MONTHLY PAYMENT of {$650.00} until it was paid off. At this time, making a payment FOUR TIMES our regular payment is not feasible, due to many circumstances. However, they told us we had NO OTHER OPTIONS, while STILL NOT PROVIDING PROOF that we owe the extra {$1900.00} in fees! We're not only devastated that they're trying to steal our house after we've paid tens of thousands in interest over the past 20 years, but we're also furious that the reckless and corrupt company has RUINED OUR CREDIT, after we've worked hard for so many years to make it great! If they would have provided proof that we owed the fees ( after MANY requests ) and just accepted our XXXX XXXX  monthly payment as usual, it would be paid off right now!! Instead, they DESTROYED OUR GOOD CREDIT, would NOT accept our payments, and continue to charge us interest and fees!! It's absolutely unacceptable, unscrupulous, and un-American! PLEASE HELP!

First of all, I do not consent to an electronic communications. I request all responses be in writing throughtheusps and I'm the one filing this complaint, and I give Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) authority to investigate this claim. As you can see, I am keeping careful records in regards to this matter. It has been well over the 30 days allowed by federal law for you to respond. Your failure to comply with federal regulations is a serious violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and could result in an investigation by the FTC. Perhaps this is just an oversight or result of high volume of the requests you receive daily. I highly doubt an agency that is responsible of maintain accurate information would neglect to follow the laws that govern them on purpose. So I will extend you the benefit of the doubt. Im sure youll want to tend to my request as soon as possible. To recap it all for you the following needs to be removed : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Filed : XXXX. Please delete these fraudulent items immediately.
