Complaint narrative:
I checked my credit report and I see this has been charging fees which I never authorized and this was originally paid to the creditors including dates of last activity, dates opened, dates reported, and payment status. ENHANCED RECOVERY claimed to have conducted a thorough investigation, despite the fact that it took them more than 30 days to finish it. However, when I reviewed my report, I found that nothing had changed. The false information is still being reported.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: SANTANDER HOLDINGS USA, INC.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
My mortgage lender is grossly overcharging me for my property taxes and escrow. 

I have contacted them numerous times, and provided property tax bills from the city I live in that indicate they are overcharging and they have responded exclusively with form letters. Each letter also states they intend to overpay again at the next quarter. 

They have issued one refund for funds but did not adjust my actual escrow payment despite the account having well over a years worth of property taxes in it, even though I have only had the mortgage for 2 years. 

I have been unable to speak to anyone and have gotten nothing but form letters back. 

Most recently they overpaid by {$730.00} and when confronted sent the same form letter they always send and stated they intend to further overpay by XXXX in XXXX. 

The city will not issue refunds without proof of payment so this money essentially disappears unless they request a refund, and they do not seem to even understand there is a problem.

Received a VISA card via USPS from Wisely, which I never applied for, and the mailing stated it was a REPLACEMENT CARD. ( I have never had this card. ) When I called to inquire why I was receiving, I was asked for my name and DOB. As my name was listed on the mailing, I gave it to them ( I spoke with 2 different people on 2 attempts to call ), but I advised that I was not providing my DOB as I had not determined them to be legitimate and only wanted to know why I was receiving the card. I offered the card number, but was advised that they could give me absolutely NO information unless I provided my DOB. I insisted that I was not interested in anything other than to know why I had received the card, but they still refused to tell me anything unless I provided them my DOB.
